Possible benefits of drinking water range from keeping the kidneys healthy to
losing weight. To function properly, all the cells and organs of the body need
water.
Here are some reasons why:
It delivers oxygen throughout the body
Blood is more than 90 percent water, and blood carries oxygen to different
parts of the body.
It boosts skin health and beauty
With dehydration, the skin can become more vulnerable to skin disorders and
premature wrinkling.
It cushions the brain, spinal cord, and other sensitive tissues.
Dehydration can affect brain structure and function. It is also involved in the
production of hormones and neurotransmitters. Prolonged dehydration can
lead to problems with thinking and reasoning.
It boosts performance during exercise
Dehydration reduces performance in activities lasting longer than 30 minutes.
Summer is around the corner so let's s get out and walk, and don't forget to bring
your water bottle with you!
