Also, does drinking water help somewhat in removing the THC from your system?
What can you drink to help your body remove the THC faster (excluding those detox drinks)?

Nope. There is nothing to drink to rid the body of THC. THC is fat-soluble, not liquid-soluble. THC is stored in the fat cells and remain there until the fat cells burn for energy. When a fat cell burns, the THC is metabolized and released back into the bloodstream, and end up in your urine. Only time and fat-burning exercise can rid the body of THC.
