Water is one of the body’s most essential nutrients. People may survive six weeks without any food, but they couldn’t live more than a week or so without water. Water is the cornerstone for all body functions. It’s the most abundant substance in the body, accounting for up to 75 percent of body weight.
Water helps
- keep body temperature constant
- transports nutrients and oxygen to all cells
- carries waste products away.
- maintain blood volume
- helps lubricate joints and body tissues such as those in the mouth, eyes and nose
Water is truly a liquid asset for health!
