How Much Water Should You Drink a Day?

Water is critical to every body comprising about 75% water; the blood has 90%, brain - 85%, muscles - 75%, lungs - 90%, kidney - 82% and bones - 22%. Now you see, our organism is made of water!

Actually, water dissolves lots of valuable minerals, nutrients, as well as chemicals in various biological processes and moves them to various parts of our body system. The proteins and carbohydrates our bodies use in kind of food are metabolized and moved by water in the stream of blood. Water is as significant in the transport of toxins and waste from our bodies. When lacking the fresh water replenishment, our body fails to function, begins to waste away, so finally collapses. An adult person loses about 2.5 litres water daily through breathing, perspiration, and elimination (faeces and urine), and as the body loses 5 percent of its water volume, dehydration symptoms like thirst, irritation, unexplained tiredness, dark urine, start to show up.
