Water holds the mirror to a healthy glow and beautiful skin – not just on the surface, but also deep within
By Nandita Iyer
Thales, the Greek philosopher, suggested that water was the material cause of all things – he wasn’t off the mark.
Water comprises not only 75 per cent of our planet Earth, but also 75 per cent of the human body. Do you know that our blood consists 90 per cent water and the brain is composed of 85 per cent water? This helps us to understand the significant role water plays in our lives.
Why is the body made up of so much water? Water helps remove toxic products that enter our body through air, food and skin. It carries nutrition to every cell and is an inherent part of most metabolic processes. Lack of water would dehydrate your body just in a way your car engine will stop running without oil.
