The Drink Your Body Needs Most
1 Our bodies are estimated to be about 60％to 70％water．Blood is mostly water．a(chǎn)nd our
muscles，lungs，and brain all contain a lot of water．Water is needed to regulate body temperature
and to provide the means for nutrients (滋養(yǎng)物)to travel to all oar organs．Water also transports
oxygen to our cells，removes waste，and protects our joints and organs．
2 we lose water through urination(排尿)，respiration(呼吸)，and by sweating．If you are very
active，you lose more water than if you do not take much exercise．Symptoms of mild
dehydration(脫水)include chronic pains in joints and muscles，lower back pain，headaches，and
constipation(便秘)．A strong smell to your urine，along with a yellow color indicates that you are
not getting enough water．Thirst is an obvious sign of dehydration and in fact，you need water
long before you feel thirsty．
3 A good rule of thumb(好的做法)is to take your body weight in pounds and divide that
number in half．That gives you the number of ounces(盎司)of water per day that you need．For
example．if you weigh 160 pounds，you should drink at least 80 ounces of water per day．If you
exercise you should drink another 8-ounce glass of water for every 20 minutes you are active．If
you drink coffee or alcohol，you should add at least an equal amount of water．When you are
traveling on an airplane，it is good to have 8 ounces of water for every hour you are on board the
plane．
4 It may be difficult to drink enough water on a busy day．Be sure you have water handy at all
times by keeping a bottle for water with you when you are working，traveling，or exercising．If
you get bored with plain water,add a bit of lemon for a touch of flavor．There are some brands of
flavored water available，but some of them have sugar or artificial sweeteners that you 1dQn》，
need
