My Life Monday How much water do you need a day? Water is an important structural component of skin, cartilage, tissues and organs. For human beings, every part of the body is dependent on water. Our body comprises of about 75% water: the brain is 85%, blood is 90%, muscles are 75%, kidneys are 82% and bones are 22%. The function of our glands and organs will eventually deteriorate if they are not nourished with good, clean water.

Adult… Infant ….Elderly Person… The average adult loses about 2.5 litres of water daily through perspiration, breathing and elimination. Symptoms of the body's deterioration begin to appear when the body loses 5% of its total water volume. In a healthy adult, this is seen as fatigue and general discomfort, whereas for an infant, it can be dehydrating. In an elderly person, a 5% water loss causes the body chemistry to become abnormal, especially if the percentage of electrolytes is overbalanced with sodium. One can usually see symptoms of aging, such as wrinkles, lethargy and even disorientation. Continuous water loss over time will speed up aging as well as increase the risk of disease.

If your body is not sufficiently hydrated, the cells will draw water from your bloodstream, which will make your heart work harder. At the same time, the kidneys cannot purify blood effectively. When this happens, some of the kidneys’ workload is passed on to the liver and other organs, which may cause them to be severely stressed. Additionally, you may develop a number of minor health conditions such as constipation, dry and itchy skin, acne, nosebleeds, urinary tract infection, coughs, sneezing, sinus pressure, and headaches.

How much water is enough for you? The minimum amount of water you need depends on your body weight. A more accurate calculation is to drink an ounce of water (28.35 grams) for every two pounds (0.91 kilograms) of body weight.

Health benefits of drinking water Drinking water helps: regulate appetite; increase metabolism; boost energy levels; lessen water retention; alleviate some headaches; reduce blood pressure; reduce high cholesterol; ease joint pain; decrease the risk of some cancers; reduce the chance of developing kidney stones; to release toxic waste products; improve the skin.
