yes it does.
as long as the flavour doesnt include sugars or caffeine (a diuretic) or salts - there are a number of flavours that add less to the water than the pipes tap water run through.

very nearly each and every physique ignored the splendid answer. you do no longer desire 8 glasses an afternoon. guess whilst the 8 glasses reccomendation got here out? as quickly as we found out our faucet water could be contaminated and that water from a bottle exchange into risk-free and handy. ask your self, ask your self, who advantages from 8 glasses an afternoon? the actuality of the problem is that we, as a species, have completed fairly properly without the 8 glasses an afternoon reccomendation it particularly is exchange into so conventional in the final couple an prolonged time. ask your self how we did that... could no longer be eating once you're thirsty, could it? What an quite unusual theory, that. in case you're no longer thirsty and all you had exchange into 3 mountain dews, you're effective. it particularly is curiously all you mandatory. we are all distinctive, as already suggested. Tea, espresso, juice, water, "purple drink," soda (even the extensive-unfold ones with caffeine) all count variety as water. and that i'd even consider Mayor West that a three% beer counts as water (plenty extra effective than that and the alcohol's dieuretic effects would outweigh the quantity of water you intake from it).

Yeah of course - Personally, I ALWAYS add some sort of flavor to my beverages.
My favorite so far is Crystal Light - Sunrise Orange flavor.
It's 5 cals per serving and It's been over 2 years since I've cut fruit juices from my diet. And so this helps tons!
Good luck.
(Also good is making your own iced tea! Cold brewed tea and some Stevia sweetner or Splenda)

they probably hinder and take away from the recommended dosage due to the flavour and sugars and additives.
