GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH
Our bodies depend on water to survive. The average human body is up to 60% water. Every cell, tissue, and organ needs water to function properly. Water helps regulate our temperature, flushes out toxins from our vital organs, carries nutrients to our cells, lubricates our joints, and provides a moist environment for our ear, nose and throat tissues. Water is vital for good health. Our body loses water each day when we perspire, and even when we breathe.
We lose water even faster when the weather is really hot, when we are physically active, or have a fever. Without replacing the water we lose, we become dehydrated, which can cause fatigue, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, digestive disorders, bladder or kidney problems, and skin disorders. An average healthy adult. living in a temperate climate should have an average intake of 2.2 to 3 litres of water every day.
