Your Health

Eat Your Water

Water does far more for your body than just satisfy your thirst. Almost every body cell, tissue and organ needs water to function. In fact, water is the nutrient your body needs in the greatest amount.

The Dietary Reference Intakes from the Institute of Medicine advise an Adequate Intake level of 3.7 liters (125 ounces) of total water daily for males ages 19 and over. For females 19 and older, it's 2.7 liters (91 ounces) daily.

While drinks supply a good portion of your water needs, solid foods also provide a surprising amount.
For example:

Food	Percent Water by Weight
Lettuce	95
Watermelon	91
Broccoli	89
Grapefruit	89
Carrot	88
Apple	86
Yogurt	85
Rice, cooked	70
Chicken, roasted, no skin	65
Cheddar cheese	37

Keep your body functioning normally and avoid dehydration by eating healthfully and by drinking your recommended amounts of water.
