8 Signs that you are not drinking enough water
By Jatin Sharma, 03 Mar 2017

Water is an important for us to survive as it keeps the inner workings of our body in top shape. Water keeps us hydrated only in its pure form.

Water adjusts the body's temperature and assists in digestion. Not only that, but it assists in removing toxins from the body and also makes necessary body fluids. The chemical reactions that support life take place in a water medium, with water being an important reactant or product of these reactions.

So if you don’t drink enough water, it can lead to serious complications. Remember coffee, tea, juice and energy drinks do not count as fluid requirements of the body. In fact, coffee and energy drinks are high in caffeine, which dehydrates the body.

Though your body can tell when you need water, here are some signs that you do not drink enough water in a day.
