Your brain is extremely sensitive to water loss. The brain is 85 percent water, and it cannot tolerate even a one percent drop in the water level. Dehydration can damage the nerve cells in the brain, and possibly lead to neurological disorders like Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's, and multiple sclerosis.

Staying hydrated not only keeps the brain alive, it also contributes to the prevention of depression by helping the body to replenish its supply of serotonin, helps regulate sleep by aiding in the production of melatonin, and generating electrical and magnetic energy in every cell, providing a natural boost of alertness.

In many cases, these horrible conditionscould have easily been prevented by simply drinking enough water - WAHOO!
