Why water is considered as important part of a food

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Water is not strictly a food, but is the most important ingredient for life. Please understand that 70% of the human body consists of water with the rest being made up of proteins, fats and other nutrients. Therefore, you can survive for few weeks without food but you cannot survive for long without water.

Water is the body's transportation and sanitation system. It maintains blood volume, regulates temperature, keeps the tissues in the eyes and mouth functioning properly, it dissolves waste products and carries them out of the body, and it delivers nutrients from food to all the body's tissues.
