When the
Human Body Does Not Get Enough Water:
- A decrease of as little as 2% in our body's
water supply can have harmful effects and cause symptoms of dehydration,
such as daytime fatigue, excess thirst, fuzzy memory, difficulty focusing
on tasks and simple math, light headedness, and nausea.
- It has been estimated that 75% of Americans
have mild, chronic dehydration (excessive daytime fatigue is the major
symptom).
- A reduction of 4-5% in body water can result
in a 20-30% decrease in work and exercise performance.
- A 10% decrease in water will produce significant
health risks.
- A week without water will surely result in
death.
