A member asked:

Why is it that no matter how much flavored water i drink, i still feel thirsty?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Try plain.: Some flavored waters do tend to make you feel thirsty. I suspect, but cannot prove, that this is done purposely - to induce you to drink more flavored water. Try plain water; i'll bet the problem solves itself, and you'll save money, too!
