Water coolers are a delicious way to keep your body hydrated.
An adult human body is made up of X% amount of water… now you notice that I say X% this is because I have read, and I am sure you have too, so many varying reports about the actual percentage of an adult human’s body weight that is made up of water.
I have read reports varying from anywhere for 60% which seems a little on the low side to up to 90% which seems a little on the high side.
Water Coolers: Helping You Get Enough Hydration
So what is the truth about this water versus body weight question? I also wonder how much of a difference the hydration level of a person makes.
I mean if you weigh a not outrageous 100 kilograms and you drink 2 litres of water in an hour without going to the bathroom then surely you now have just added an extra 2% body weight, and what if a person that weighed a not unusual 50 kilograms did the same thing surely they have added another 4 percent to their total.
From what I can tell different parts of your body also contain different amounts of water, for instance your brain is reportedly very high in water content at an average of 78 percent. But that is far outdone by organs such as your liver and kidneys and lungs which all sit comfortably in the 85 percent area.
Water Coolers: Keeping Your Body Safe
On the flip side human bone comes in around a measly 22 percent – although that is probably a good thing as it needs to be dry and hard enough to keep us standing up! I have even read reports that women have a lower body water percentage than men as much as 10 percent less on average – but the source did not explain why.
But whatever the statistics are it adds up to a lot and if you are going to be made in a large part of water better make sure that you use clean filtered water.
