Water performs an amazing range of tasks in our bodies. Even our bones are 22 percent water. Each of us needs to drink around two litres of water every day, just to keep everything working as it should. With so much of our lives depending on it, a good source of water is also good for your peace of mind. If you have a nutritious and healthy diet including a variety of fresh fruit and vegies then that will account for approximately 20% of your water intake.
* Eyes, Mouth and Nasal Passages need water to keep them moist and working properly.
* Skin is smoother, softer and more supple when it is properly hydrated. As water reaches the skin last, it will suffer most from dehydration.
*Joints need water for lubrication and cushioning protection in the soft tissues.
*Blood is mostly water. If you don’t drink enough water, the volume of blood can fall. A drop of four percent in your blood volume reduces the body’s ability to function by 33 percent.
*Kidneys need water to flush toxins and waste products out of the body.
*The brain is three-quarters water. Concentration, memory and reaction times benefit from proper hydration.
*Muscles need oxygen. Drinking enough water helps the blood transport oxygen and other valuable substances.
*The Heart is cushioned by water. If you don’t drink enough, your blood can become thicker, making the heart work harder and increasing the risk of dangerous clots.
Each and every cellular function your body performs requires water to smooth the process and make every timely and efficient. Try also reading a book called "The water cure" by a Dr. Batmanghelidj

Water is good for you because there is nothing to it. No calories. No fat. No cholestoral. Nothing. The only thing that water really does to your body is keep it hydrated. You need to drink water a lot!! I don't really think water does anything to your skin, though.

It flushes out the toxins in your body and helps you to lose weight by serving as a filler and melting fat.
