If there a brand of drinking water that hydrates you more?

I find drinking 8 glasses (64oz) of water a day irritating, it makes me bloated and I go to the bathroom often. Is there a type of water that helps your body absorb the water better so that you dont have to drink so much?
Answer:
No, your body should adapt to your higher water consumption slightly, making for less trips.
H2O is H2O.Sorry!
The 8/8 rule is a bunch of bolongnie. Especially if you have other drinks, which of course, has water in it. If you're just walking around and not exercising in any way, drinking 8 glasses of water a day is stupid. This is becoming an old wive's tale if anything. Studies, nowadays, suggest that this is absurd and that you get water from milk, juices, tea, fruits, veggies and other foods. Don't kill yourself. Besides, do the math and let your common sense play a role in this. Everyone requires a different diet regimen, a different exercise regimen, do you really think 6 billion ppl on the planet would fair well with the 8 glasses of water a day rule? Hmmmm...I say not.
Water is water, no matter what the brand. Some contain minerals, but the amount is so tiny that it won't affect your retention or elimination of water. Remember, it's the EQUIVALENT of eight glasses of water a day you're supposed to go for. Any liquid beverage (except alcoholic or caffeinated ones) counts, as do portions of juicy fruits such as apples, pears, grapes, plums, peaches, etc. Also soups, juicy vegetables, and so on. Try cutting back to a glass of water with each meal - or before each meal.
