Water represents 60% of our body’s composition,
so it is necessary its daily consumption to fulfill
important functions in our body such as: regulation
of body temperature, digestion of nutrients,
hydration of body cells, prevents the friction of the
body joints, maintain skin tone, it allows organs to
work better, and all biochemical reactions in the
body need water.
A person who does not consume the necessary
amount of water, can suffer some of the following
problems: kidney diseases, urinary, premature
aging, fatigue, constipation, dehydration and
death.
The amount of water needed for a people is measured
based on kilograms of the body’s weight,
the activities carried out by the person, such as
people who work or perform activities and if they
have any pathological condition where they need
to control water consumption such as kidney
diseases, blood pressure among others.
Water should be consumed throughout the day in
its natural form, however we consume foods that
are high in liquids such as fresh fruits, vegetables
and natural fruit juices.

our health, and part of that care is proper hydration,
