Water 101
Session #3
The well hydrated body:
Teeth will be 10% water
Muscle tissue will be 75% water
Blood 90.7% water
Lymph 94%
Brain 80.5%
This is not all but just a few.
Some thoughts--our lymphatic system transports throughout our body and carries away wastes. You can see how much of it should be water to function optimally. Most of us fall below normal. We have 15 billion brain cells. I really really need all I can possibly have and I need them to be hydrated, don't you? Our kidneys receive and filter then return back to the body our entire blood supply 15 times PER HOUR. They obviously need proper hydration. And remember from lesson one that we cannot recreate healthy cells when dehydrated. And creating unhealthy cells are trouble.
Some hydration facts:
With just 4% water depletion, our muscle endurance suffers and we begin to suffer dizziness.
At 5%, headaches begin along with drowsiness, along with a compromise in concentration.
Our heart begins to race at 6% water depletion.
7% water depletion brings the risk of collapse.
This ran a little long so next post we'll talk about the healthiest kinds of water. Thanks again for reading.
