Water
is essential for human health; over 60% of the human body consists of water,
and the effects of dehydration can be life threatening. Although there is
considerable disagreement among scientists as to the exact amount of water
individuals should consume each day, the former “8-by-8” rule of 64 ounces per
day is no longer a hard and fast rule. Replacing high-calorie sodas or
alcoholic drinks with plain water can help control appetite and weight, improve sleep and energy levels,
reduce the likelihood of dental cavities or tooth decay,
and help manage chronic conditions such as Diabetes Mellitus. |
