What would happen if you didn’t drink water?
Water is found in abundance all around us, from the moisture in the ground to the icy peaks of mountains, and even within the cells of our own bodies. The average human, depending on factors such as location, body fat percentage, age, and sex, is composed of approximately 55-60% water. Interestingly, newborn babies are even wetter, with a water composition of 75%. However, this percentage decreases to 65% by their first birthday. So, what is the significance of water in our bodies, and how much do we actually need to drink in order to maintain good health?
