What would happen if you didn’t drink water?

 

Water can be found almost anywhere, from soil moisture to ice caps.
 

to the cells inside our own bodies. Depending on factors like location,

• fat index,

• age,

• and sex,

 

The average person is 55-60% water.Human babies are even more vulnerable at 

birth.wetter.They swim like fish because they are 75% water.However, their water  

By their first birthday, their composition has dropped to 65%.So, how important is 

water in our lives?and how much water do we really need to stay healthy?

 

The H20 in our bodies works to cushion and lubricate joints,regulate 

temperature,and to nourish the brain and spinal cord.Water isn't only in our 

blood.An adult's brain and heart are almost three quarters water.That's roughly 

equivalent to the amount of moisture in a banana.Lungs are more similar to an

 apple at 83%.And even seemingly dry human bones are 31% water.If we are 

essentially made of water,and surrounded by water,

 

 

why do we still need to drink so much?

Well, each day we lose two to three liters through our sweat,

urine,and bowel movements,and even just from breathing.

While these functions are essential to our survival,we need to compensate for the 

fluid loss.Maintaining a balanced water level is essential to avoid dehydrationor 

over-hydration,both of which can have devastating effects on overall health.

At first detection of low water levels,sensory receptors in the brain's hypothalamus

signal the release of antidiuretic hormone.When it reached the kidneys, it creates 

aquaporins,special channels that enable blood to absorb and retain more water,

leading to concentrated, dark urine.Increased dehydration can cause notable drops 

in energy,

mood,

skin moisture,

and blood pressure,

as well as signs of cognitive impairment.

 

A dehydrated brain works harder to accomplish the same amount as a normal brain,

and it even temporarily shrinks because of its lack of water.

Over-hydration, or hyponatremia,is usually caused by overconsumption of water in 

a short amount of time.Athletes are often the victims of over-hydration because of 

complications in regulating water levelsin extreme physical conditions.

 

Whereas the dehydrated brain amps up the production of antidiuretic hormone,

the over-hydrated brain slows, or even stops, releasing it into the blood.

Sodium electrolytes in the body become diluted,causing cells to swell.In severe 

cases,the kidneys can't keep up with the resulting volumes of dilute urine.

Water intoxication then occurs,possibly causing headache,vomiting,and, in rare 

instances, seizures or death.But that's a pretty extreme situation.On a normal, day-

to-day basis,maintaining a well-hydrated system is easy to manage

for those of us fortunate enough to have access to clean drinking water.

For a long time, conventional wisdom said that we should drink eight glasses a day.

That estimate has since been fine-tuned.Now, the consensus is that the amount of 

water we need to imbibe depends largely on our weight and environment.

 

The recommended daily intake for men is 2.5-3.7 litres of water, and about 2-2.7 

litres for women, a range that is pushed up or down depending on whether we are 

healthy, active, elderly, or overheating. While water is the healthiest hydrator,other 

beverages,even those with caffeine like coffee or tea,replenish fluids as well.

And water within food makes up about a fifth of our daily H20 intake.

 

Strawberries, cucumbers, and even broccoli are high in antioxidants.

water, and can provide valuable nutrients and fibre while supplementing liquid 

intake.Drinking well might also have various long-term benefits.
 

Optimal hydration has been shown in studies to reduce the risk of stroke. 

aid in the management of diabetes and may reduce the risk of certain types of 

cancer.Getting the right amount of liquid makes all the difference in the world. in 

how you will feel, think, and function on a daily basis.
