WATER METABOLISM
Various metabolism performed in our body completely depends upon water.

1. Water is required for the secretion of saliva. Due to its hydrolysing property it helps in the breakdown of carbohydrate, proteins, lipids, vitamins and minerals. It also helps in the transportation of nutrients and minerals.
2. 80- 90% of Blood plasma is composed of water. It helps in increasing the efficiency of RBC to get oxygen from the lungs. Water increases the blood circulation.
3. Water is required for the cerebrospinal fluid around the brain. It helps to prevent the brain from various shocks.
4. 98-99% of vitreous humour in eyes are made of water which dissolves the foreign substances entering from the environment.
5. Water is required for the pericardial fluid around the heart. This fluid helps to prevent the friction between two muscles while beating.
6. Water is required for the secretion of digestive juices and enzymes like amylase, pepsin, trypsin, lipase, etc.....in our digestive system.
7. Water is required for the endocrine gland which helps to balance the hormone secretion.
8. It helps in the growth and development of cells and tissues. It also repairs the damaged cells.
9. It helps in the formation of synovial fluids in joints which gives smooth movement between joints.
10. Water helps in the excretion of toxic wastes from the body through the urinary tract and also maintains the kidney.
11. Soft skin texture and muscle structure are maintained by the presence of enough moisture.
12. Perspiration: The leftover salts after the breakdown of protein (ammonia and urea) are removed through skin pores with the help of water.

  REASON TO QUENCH THE THIRST
  Water is not only helping us to quench our thirst in our throat. Quenching thirst not only hydrates our throat. The meaning of thirst is that every cells, tissues, organs and every single metabolism in our body are in need of water. They need to be hydrated so that those organs are sending their signals to our brain though which we feel thirsty and dryness in our throat.
  As long as we fail to drink water, every cells and organs start to slow down its function and soon we'll feel low and dehydrated.
