  4. Functions of Water Provides shape and structure to cells Regulates body temperature Aids in digestion and absorption of nutrients Transports nutrients and oxygen to cells

  5. Functions of Water Serves as solvent for vitamins, minerals, glucose, and amino acids Participates in chemical reactions Major component of mucous and other lubricating fluids

  6. Requirements 1450 to 2800 ml daily Losses/day Perspiration 450 to 900 ml Exhalations 350 ml Urine 500-1400 ml Faeces 150 ml Total 1450 to 2800 ml/day  Therefore intake must match losses

  7. The actual water requirement is highly variable and is increased by: -very hot or very cold environmental temperatures -high altitude -strenuous exercise -lactation -pregnancy

  8. The actual water requirement is highly variable and is increased by: -long exposures to recycled air – eg airplane flights -vomiting -diarrhea -fever -high fibre

  9. The actual water requirement is highly variable and is increased by: -thermal injuries -uncontrolled diabetes -certain kidney problems

  10. Dehydration- -defined as a loss of 1 % or more of body weight due to water loss -for a 150 lb person this means 1.5 pounds -for a 70 kg person this means 700 grams -480 ml of water weighs 1 pound -1000 ml of water weighs 1 kg = 2.205 pounds

  12. early signs of dehydration include: -light headedness -dry mouth and eyes -dark scanty urine

  13. Dehydration -leads to delirium and death when the water loss exceeds 10 % of body weight

  14. Fluid overload Rare because kidney usually gets rid of excess Impaired fluid output and sodium retention are associated with: -renal failure -congestive heart failure -certain drug therapies (eg steroids) -liver disease

  15. Sources Drinking water Juices Milk Pop Coffee Tea

  16. Sources Meats Lettuce Vegetables Whole wheat bread Metabolism
