"I thought water didn't get metabolized, it just goes right through you.
Arthur DeVany has a paleo exercise program on his website.  Is that where
you get yours from?"
Aileen,
To my understanding water goes through the stomach walls & directly into the
bloodstream.
But sodas & other beverages have to be digested "like" food.
My exercise routines come from many sources, but originally I got some great
ideas through
http://www.geocities.com/tbkfitness/ which got me into paleo-style eating.
