The human body needs water to stay alive. Our bodies are
made up of about 60% water, so when we don't drink that water, our body is
being depleted of what it needs most. Water helps our blood flow, helps us
eliminate waste and toxins.
Water helps
your body with the following:
·
Keeps its temperature normal.
·
Lubricates and cushions your joints.
·
Protects your spinal cord and other sensitive
tissues.
·
Gets rid of wastes through urination,
perspiration, and bowel movements.
·
The body is 80 % water, there is not a more important thing
we can put in our body. This ratio must be maintained for great health.
·
Water plays a vital role in pretty much everybody function
there is.
·
Water is needed for digestion, nutrient absorption and
chemical reactions.
·
Water is needed to keep the flow of blood going around the
body.
·
Water removes harmful toxins from the body.
·
Water keeps your bodies temperature at an average.
You need
water to replace what your body loses through normal everyday functions. Of
course, you lose water when you go to the bathroom or sweat, but you even lose
small amounts of water when you exhale. You need to replace this lost water to
prevent dehydration.
Your body
also needs more water when you are:
·
In hot climates.
·
More physically active.
· Running a fever.
To help you
stay hydrated during prolonged physical activity or when it is hot outside:
1. Drink
fluid while doing the exercise.
2. Drink
several glasses of water after physical activity is completed.
