water and human healthWater is important to the mechanics of the human body. The body cannot work without it, just as a car cannot run without gas and oil. In fact, all the cell and organ functions made up in our entire anatomy and physiology depend on water for their functioning.
The human body is a water machine, designed to run primarily on water and minerals.. Every healing and life giving process that happens in our body happens through Water
An inadequate intake of water, or consumption of water laced with contaminants, causes the properties of our blood to change and negatively effects virtually every aspect of our health

A healthy recommendation for water consumption would be at least 10-12 glasses each day, with optimum benefits reached at 14 to 16 glasses a day. It’s possibly the best health enhancement habit you can develop and it’s so simple a glass of water every one to two hours. Try it...drink at least 10 glasses of water every day for just one week and you’ll be amazed at how much better you feel!

30 minutes of exercise a day
30 minutes per day of modertae exercise is probably the minimum to gain health benefits. Moderate exercise means that you get warm, mildly out of breath, and mildly sweaty. It does not have to be intense. However, a study published in 2003 suggests that the more vigorous the exercise, the better for health - particularly for preventing heart disease. At the University of Leeds we have a range of exciting opportunities to enable you to reach your 30 minutes a day goal. From yoga to badminton, Climbing to Salsa Aerobics, there are activities for everyone to help maintain your healthy mind and body.

Better sleep will result in better health. Most people get on average 6 to 7 hours of sleep a night. But that is not enough. Studies show that people who get more sleep are healthier, lose weight more easily and are happier than those who get little sleep.
