•Water makes up about 45-75% of our bodies, depending on our age, gender, and hydration levels.
Water is essential for various bodily functions:
•Water is needed to produce saliva. In fact, more than 98% of saliva is water. Saliva includes small amounts of electrolytes, mucus, and enzymes. It’s essential for breaking down solid foods and keeping our mouths healthy.
•Drinking enough water helps lubricate your joints, spinal cord, and tissues. This helps you to enjoy physical activity and reduce discomfort caused by conditions like arthritis, fibromyalgia, and osteoporosis.
•Perspiration regulates body temperature and keeps you cool when exercising or when in warm temperatures. You need water to refill the fluid lost from perspiration.
•You need enough water in your system to have a healthy stool and avoid constipation.
•Water intake helps your kidneys work more efficiently. It filters out waste through urination and helps to prevent kidney stones.
•Water carries helpful nutrients and oxygen to your entire body, and also helps to improve blood flow. Reaching your daily water intake will therefore improve your circulation and be beneficial to your overall health.
