Water
is the second most important component of life, after oxygen.
More than two-thirds of the body is made up of water. The
brain is made up of nearly 85 percent water and solid tissue
(like muscle) is made up of about 70 percent water.
Water
is crucial in moving metabolic wastes through the body. It
reduces the burden on the lungs, kidneys and liver. In fact,
it is a universal solvent, which is capable of dissolving and
carrying nearly any kind of substance.
