To the best of my knowledge, the amount of water an MSer should drink is no different from the amount a "normal" person should drink.

Here's what the Mayo Clinic recommends:

Yes, decaffeinated herbal tea counts as part of your water total for the day.

Really great info in that article. I should have thought to look at the Mayo Clinic for insight.

Thank You!!!

true lemon

I HATE drinking plain water, it turns my stomach. So I add a packet of True Lemon. No calories, just citric acid and lemon stuff. I have to order it from Amazon cuz I live in the boonies. Also comes in lime and orange flavors. Like Lemon the best though.

Have you tried a "splash" of real lemon juice? I do that sometimes. It would be easier to get as every grocery store should have it.
