Why water matters

Did you know that 60% of our body is made up of water?

There must be a pretty important reason we carry around half of our body weight in water, and here’s why:

All of the biochemical reactions in our body occur in, use as a substrate or produce water.

Here’s how we use it:

🥗 Digestion and absorption of our food

💉 Blood and cell volume which has implications for blood pressure

🚚 Transportation of our proteins, hormones and cells

💩 Elimination of waste via the bowels and kidneys

🏃🏼‍♀️ Thermoregulation via sweat

Aim for 30ml per kg of body weight.

The best way to consumer water is anyway that suits you! Hot, cold, small sips through the day, 1L by 9am - it’s all about getting enough.
