As we age, the water content of our bodies declines from about 78% at birth to a low of 50% in our senior years. Optimal hydration is paramount to our bodies maximum performance in all areas. If you wait until you're thirsty to drink it, there is a good chance that you are already slightly dehydrated.
For human survival, water is definitely the most important nutrient and for optimal health, it is the most under-valued part of the human diet.
