Life without water is impossible and we can live longer with water. The human body contains about 70 % of water of the body weight. The transport of nutrient materials to and the removal of wastes products from the cells, all are mediated through water, the solitary vehicle of cellular metabolism. These movements are brought about by changes in osmotic pressure induced by relative concentration of colloids and crystalloids on either side of cellular membrane.
Water is distributed in inter communicable department namely
1. Intracellular fluids (71%).
2. Extracellular fluids (29%) which are present in two compartments namely
a. Vascular department (7%)
b. Intercellular tissue spaces (22%)
There are three source of body water.
1. Ingestion of fluid through gastrointestinal tract -1200 ml.
2. Water in food (1000 ml).
3. Formation of water by oxidation of food 300 ml (14 ml /100 calories).
Total water loss from the body under normal condition is about 2500 ml / day through the various routes.
· Urine 1400 ml
· Skin 500 ml
· Exhaled air 500 ml
· Stool 100 ml
The intake and output of water are balanced under normal circumstance except during formation of new tissue (Growth, Pregnancy, Fever, Convalescence etc.). Dehydration is the body state which results from an abnormally low water content. The lack of water may affect both intra cellular and extra cellular compartment, or the major deficiency may occur in only one of them.
Effects of excessive intracellular water with less sodium
· Giddiness.
· Restlessness.
· Spasm of abdominal muscles.
· Muscular twitching.
· Oedema.
Fat cells contain very little water while lean tissues are rich in water. Obese person has smaller ratio of water / body weight than lean person.

Water therapy can be followed any person at any age.
* Water is a best diuretic as it can inhibit secretion of anti-diuretic hormone of posterior pituitary.
* Drink at least 1 to 3 glasses (150 to 450 ml) of water in the early morning.
