        It's actually an amazing story - Big Water seem to have funded a study that was almost entirely null/negative, but was reported around the world as positive!

        There were no differences between children who were given low, medium, or high amounts of water And yet the headlines said water will make you multitask! Weird, that

        Also, best of all, the 'high' amount of water was hilariously high - 2.5 liters A DAY for a 9-11 year old That's sooooo much waterpic.twitter.com/yLf55ADHZW

        Well, to be fair drinking lots of water probably has some folks tweeting from the WC 😂

        If I drink water, I can rub my head & pat my stomach at the same time... ...& I’m a human, so that’s not ‘in mice’! 😜
