Interesting Water Facts

75% of Americans, and most of the world population,

are chronically dehydrated.

In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak

that it is often mistaken for hunger.

Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism

as much as 3%.

One glass of water shuts down midnight hunger pangs for

almost 100% of dieters

Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of

water a day could significantly ease back and joint

pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-

term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty

focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.

breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to
