Many people think that the human body is just a living thing. Actually it is not quite right, because the human body is a large group of living things consisting of more than one hundred trillion living cells. All cells belonging to this large group work together hand in hand to ensure that each one can live healthily, comfortably, safely, and peacefully with one another.

Each cell and its group has a specific task. There are cells whose job is to form blood cells, neutralize poisons, kill enemy cells, absorb food essences, concentrate bile, capture light waves, conduct electricity, clean the environment, move organs, wrap and fortify all parts of the body so that they become one unit. , as well as a variety of other tasks. All of these cells work in an orderly and integrated manner according to their specialties with a complex coordination process.

One thing that is extraordinary about body cells is the amount of water they contain. More than 70% of the cell's weight is water, so all activities in the cell take place in a liquid environment. Two-thirds of all the water in the body is in the body's cells. While another third are in the cavity that forms the distance between the cells.

The water in our body functions as a carrier for all food ingredients that will be formed into living cells that are needed by the whole body. Disposal and transport of dead cells are also carried out by water. To transport it, water continues to flow in the body so that it functions optimally, so it is the giant pump that has the most role, which in this case is called the heart. This miracle pump works day and night tirelessly.

Water as a means of transporting blood in the human body is very important function. Given the importance of the function of water in the body, the adequacy of water in the body must be maintained rather not reduced.

One of the causes of poor water transportation or flow in the body is the lack of fluid intake into the body. If there is not enough fluid in the body, the balance of the body's organs will be disrupted and toxic build-up will increase, which in turn will spur the emergence of various diseases. Therefore, the habit of consuming less water can trigger various diseases.

Water in the body is like a lubricant in a machine

No matter how good a car is, its quality is largely determined by the condition of the engine. The quality of the engine is largely determined by the treatment of engine oil. If the quality of the oil given to the car is bad, the car engine will wear out or be damaged quickly. However, if the car is cared for using super oil and the quality and quantity are maintained, the engine will last long and not be damaged easily. Likewise with the use of water in the body, how important water is in our bodies, just as the importance of oil as a lubricant in the machine.

Toxins in the body will accumulate more and cannot be transported to the disposal system if the body lacks water. Finally, our bodies become rusty quickly. Thus it can be concluded that maintaining water in the human body is far more important than oil in a car, but many people do not realize the importance of water for their body's needs.

Lack of water has many negative effects on the body. Based on the results of research in developed countries, it is known that water has extraordinary benefits in preventing and treating various diseases, both mild and severe diseases.

How to Drink Good and Right

Drinking water according to the right path and according to the character of the body and the character of the water will provide maximum health benefits. The amount of water or the best time for us to drink, must be adjusted to the character of the body and water. More than 70 percent of our body contains water content. Therefore, the amount of water that we must give into the body is at least two liters / day.

Most of us don't know when is the right time to drink. The habit of drinking a lot when eating or after eating is not good, because the food we chew in our mouth mixes with saliva (salivary glands) which contains the enzyme amylase. This enzyme functions to break down food so that it helps perfect the processing of food in the stomach. When food is swallowed, it will mix with various enzymes in the stomach.

When we drink during meals or after, the water we drink will separate the food that has been mixed with the various enzymes so that the food processing process will be disrupted and imperfect. If the food processing process is not perfect, the result is that the nutrients the body needs are not optimal, the disposal of the rest of the body's preparations is hampered, which will eventually develop many symptoms of the disease that appear, such as flatulence, difficulty defecating, and so on.

Perfect Time to Drink

The right time to drink is two hours before or two hours after eating, or between meals, such as between breakfast and lunch and between lunch and dinner.

When we are going to eat or after we should drink only half a glass of water. even then make it a habit to gargle water first before swallowing it so that it mixes with the enzymes in the mouth. It's even better if we train to get used to not drinking when eating and not drinking after eating.

A good time to drink is 2 glasses when you wake up, 2 glasses before or after eating, and 2 hours before going to bed.

Why is drinking before bedtime bad?

The habit of drinking before bed will affect the kidney rest. The quality of human health in general is also affected by the quality of sleep. The amount of fluid that enters at night will force the kidneys to work when they should rest from tiring work routines during the day. Not only that, our restful sleep will also be disturbed by frequent urination at night, even though the repair of damaged cell tissue is generally carried out by the body at night.
