Fit Body
Savor the water does not stop at just about the shower or bath. No less important properties of water when drunk. Besides food, water is needed by our bodies. Someone who lack food still can survive until a few days, but lack of water can be fatal, because water is the biggest part of human body composition.
In the body of a man with an average weight of 70 kg, according to Dr. Elvina Naidoo, MSc, nutritionist, water content in the body approximately 45 l. (In women, the water content is slightly lower because a greater body fat composition.) Of the total water content above 45 l, about 30 l contained in our cells (intracellular), while 15 l is outside the cell (ektraseluler). Which includes water outside the cell is water in the brain fluid, liquid eyes and nose, including fluid in the digestive tract.
According to another source within the brain water content 83%, renal 82%, cardiac 79%, lung 80%, 22% bone, and blood 90%. When the water content in each organ is maintained as needed, then the organ will remain healthy. Conversely, if declining, its function will also be reduced and more easily disturbed by bacteria, viruses, etc.. So you can imagine how big the role of water in our bodies.
Fortunately, the human body has a mechanism in maintaining the balance of the incoming water intake and output. Thirst in every person is a normal mechanism in maintaining the water intake in the body. Water body needs approximately 2 to 2.5 l (8-10 cups) per day. Total water demand is already included water intake from food (such as soup, soup, etc.), beverages such as milk, tea, coffee, syrups etc.. In addition, water intake was also obtained from the metabolism of food consumed and tissue metabolism in the body.
Importance of water intake per day, can also be viewed from a certain number of water removed from the body every day through several mechanisms. There is through urine, feces, sweat, and also through the respiratory tract.
The amount of water removed the body through urine about 1 l / day. If the amount of feces that was issued in healthy people of about 50-400 g / day, the water content of about 60-90% weight of feces or about 50-60 ml of water a day.
Meanwhile,
water is wasted through sweating and respiratory tract in a maximum of 1 l per day, depending on the temperature of the surrounding air. Not to mention the expenditure of factors of water through respiration. Someone who has a fever, water content in the breath will increase. In contrast, the amount of water inhaled through the breath is reduced due to low humidity surroundings.
Our body will decrease the condition when the water content decreases and less rapid charging implemented. Obviously, because there is a very close relationship between quality and water content in the body with our body's response.
Dr. James M. Rippe, a cardiologist from the United States encouraged to drink at least 1 l more than what is needed our thirst. The reason, losing only 4% of the liquid will decrease our performance as much as 22%! It is understandable if the loss of 7%, we will begin to feel weak and lethargic.
The more we do the activity, the water will be more depleted from the body. Moreover, people living in tropical countries where the energy expended more. Therefore, health experts warn not to drink only when felt thirsty. Habits much to drink, whether it is hungry or not, is a healthy habit!
That means, working in air-conditioned room also requires us to drink more, although do not feel thirsty. Because, in air-conditioned room we will more quickly become dehydrated. That much to drink will help the skin does not dry quickly is important to note not only by those who daily work in air-conditioned room, but also by those working in the room where the temperature is not fixed. Temperatures go up and down causing the room humidity is also uncertain. With drinking water will help neutralize the influence of such changes.
Water also is "swept" the dirt in the body that will be faster to get out through urine. For those who want to arrange any body, drink warm water before eating (and thus felt somewhat satisfied) is one way to reduce the amount of food intake. Moreover the water contains no calories, sugar, or fat. However, it is best to drink water at medium temperature, not too hot, and not too cold.
Realizing how great the water to support fitness, health and beauty of the body, it could not hurt us to maintain our friendship with this old friend. As long as we still can enjoy the usefulness, let's take advantage of the best.
