Water is the key to detox - says water company

DRINK plenty of water to detox in 2005 - that's the message from Warrington's water providers United Utilities.

The company has teamed up with the National Kidney Research Fund to encourage people to drink lots of water throughout the day.

Jamie Miller, from United Utilities' customer services team, said: "It is very easy to over indulge over the festive period, so come January we all resolve to take better care of ourselves.

"We all think of detoxing in the New Year - but drinking plenty of water is something we can benefit from all year round."

A survey carried out by the company revealed that water helped a high percentage of people beat a hangover.

A fry-up, sleep and painkillers were also named as top hangover cures.
