Water is the body's most important nutrient. It's literally essential to life. Without it,we would survive maybe two to three days. Water should make up about 60-percent of your body weight. Because we lose so much of it through basic body functions-even more through exercise-it's important to replenish the supply by drinking more water. You can also exercise more effectively and at higher levels when you're getting more water.
