The Importance of Drinking Water

Water is important.  Whether you sip it or swig it, you need water to survive.  Water makes up more than half your body weight.  Drinking water does more than quench your thirst. It helps nourish your body with nutrients and cleans out wastes so your body can stay healthy.  If you don’t drink enough fluids, you can become dehydrated and your body will slow down.  Water keeps your body healthy, refreshed and ready to go.  For more information on the importance of water, you download or read the University of Florida publication here:   edis.ifas.ufl.edu
