l Necessity of Water
c. Solvent function
l the major waste product from the body is UREA
l a healthy urine volume:
1-2 Litres/day
l control of urine production determined by the
following nutrients:
l protein intake -urea
l sodium intake -salt
l fluid intake

1. FUNCTIONS OF WATER
Maintenance of Blood Volume and Blood Pressure
l kidneys constantly adjusting blood volume and
concentration of the urine
l extreme losses of water from the body (skin,
lungs, feces, urine) lead to a decrease in blood
volume and blood pressure
l hormones, enzymes and blood proteins are all
involved in maintaining blood volume & pressure
l Antidiuretic Hormone
secreted from pituitary gland in response to
high salt concentration in the blood

hormones,
l Renin/Angiotensin
renin enzyme secreted by kidneys in
response to reduced blood flow
activates angiotensin from inactive
angiotensinogen
angiotensin protein that signals adrenal
gland to release aldosterone (hormone)
causes blood vessels to constrict,

1. FUNCTIONS OF WATER
l Fluid and Electrolyte Balance
l electrolytes are the primary regulator of fluid
balance in different fluid compartments in the body
l Sodium and Chloride (ECF) are the first electrolytes
lost from body due to sweating, blood loss or
excretion

FUNCTIONS OF WATER
Acid/Base Balance (pH)
l careful acid/base balance is maintained in the
body with the goal of controlling the blood pH
level within a narrow range of 7.35-7.45, mostly
achieved by the action of the kidneys, buffers in
the blood, and respiration
l when blood pH shifts outside this range, can
damage proteins (e.g. Hb, enzymes)
l some electrolytes act to accept or donate
hydrogens to maintain a normal and constant
body pH = buffers

FUNCTIONS OF WATER
Acid/Base Balance (pH)
l through excretion, the lungs, skin and kidneys
control acid/base balance
l lungs depending upon acidic or basic conditions,
increased or decreased respiration (respectively)
can help maintain a normal blood pH
l skin we excrete acids through our skin
l Kidneys select which ions to retain (can be
exchanged with H+) and which to excrete,
maintaining a nearly constant overall body acid
load;

2. WATER NEEDS
l Water Balance
l estimated need: 11.5 mL/kcal energy expended
l healthy urine volume = 1-2 Litres/day
l @ <600mL/day forces kidneys to concentrate
urine increased tendency to form kidney
stones
l @>600mL/day output proportional to intake
l INSENSIBLE LOSSES of water =
27

2. WATER NEEDS
l Water Balance
l get ~1200-2500mL from foods and beverages
each day
l lose 500-1400mL in urine, 950-1400mL in feces
and ~1450-2800mL overall/day
l if you sweat a lot loss of extracellular fluid (i.e.
Na, Cl), therefore, may desire salty foods
l insensible losses can account for about half of all
water losses each day when a person is not
visibly sweating
l an air traveler can lose ~0.5 litre water/hour of
travel time through
28

2. WATER NEEDS
l Thirst
l when blood loses water, it becomes more
concentrated than normal
l mouth becomes dry; brain and neural signals help
initiate drinking
l thirst appears when total body water drops by 12%
l thirst is not a reliable signal of dehydration
because it lags behind the bodys need
l athletes -can take weight before and after
exercise to determine water needs
l 1 mL water weighs 1 gram; 1000mL = 1 kg water

2. WATER NEEDS
l Dehydration due to lack of intake or increased
losses
l loss of 1-2% of body weight in fluids: thirst, fatigue
l loss of 3-5% of body weight in fluids: dry mouth,
decreased urine production
l loss of 6-8% of body weight in fluids: difficulty
concentrating, headache, impaired temperature
regulation
l loss of >8% of body weight in fluids: heat
intolerance, exhaustion, collapse
l loss of 20% of body weight in fluids: coma & death
