CELEBRATION OF WATER, WHAT DOES IT REPRESENT


Today is World Water Day.This indirectly represents the recognition of the greater percentage of our body component.  Just take a look at the article below:

Benefit of Drinking Water for the Human Body
Every part of your body is made up of cells.
Protoplasm, the basic material of living cells, is made of fats, carbohydrates, proteins, salts, and  similar elements combined with water. 
Water acts as a solvent, transporting, combining,  and chemically breaking down these substances.
A cell exchanges elements with the rest of the body by electrolysis, and in a normal case, minerals and micro elements  pass through the cell membrane to the nucleus by electro-osmosis.
The body needs electrolytes (minerals like sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate) for its basic functions.
In case of water shortage, the electrolyzes cannot happen and our cells dry out and die.
Therefore, in order to keep our cells hydrated, our body's electrochemical balance and stay alive we need water and salt.
