    Athos agrees: "Important facts" quoted do not seem to pertain to the question.
    Ummm, I beg to differ. Please read #2 above:

    * Eat fresh foods, avoid processed foods, and drink plenty of water
    This would mean 8 or more glasses of water daily. So, it does answer the question at hand.
