Why is drinking water good for you ?

All the good stuff water gets up to inside your body

Good hydration is vital for keeping your body working the way it should. After all, you’re up to 60% H2O. Virtually every part of your needs it to thrive. So, what happens once water gets inside you?

Good, good, good…good hydration 

There’s not much in your body that won’t get a boost from being well hydrated. Here’s a rundown about how water does you good: it contributes to the maintenance of normal body’s temperature, cognitive function and physical function.
In fact, water is completely essential for life – you can’t live for more than 3-5 days without it.

How much should you drink a day?

To stay healthy, water in the body should remain at a pretty constant level. That means, whatever you lose every day, has to be replaced by roughly the same amount.
How much water we need varies from person to person and depends on different things. Like how active you are, your age and gender, if you’re pregnant and how hot and cold the temperature is around you*.
