The Importance of Water

  It supresses the apetite 
      
  It assists the body in metabolizing stored fat, because your liver 
is overloaded when your kidneys don't get enough water. Your liver metabolizes 
fat, and it can't do that 100% if it is doing the kidneys job. 
      
  It reduces fat deposits in the body 
      
  It relieves fluid retention problems. If you don't give your body water, 
it will hold it so as not to lose it. 
      
  It reduces sodium buildup in the body 
      
  It helps to maintain proper muscle tone. 
     
  It rids the body of waste and toxins 

  It relieves constipation
