Question

staying hydrated is so important because our bodies are made up mostly of water - the proper balance between water and electrolytes affect how our body systems function, including: nerves, muscles, body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, removal of waste, and maintaining a healthy metabolism.

what are 2 things that stand out to you from the image?
answer:
1.
2.

so, how much water do we really need? watch this video:

the video explains that to stay well-hydrated:
during the first ten hours of the day i should drink
how does that compare to what i actually drink?
answer:

when exercising the \galpin equation\ says:
take your body weight in pounds and divide that by 30
this is how many oz. of water i should drink every 15-20 mins.

Explanation:

Analyze the first question on the image

The first question asks: "What are 2 things that stand out to you from the image?"
Looking at the diagram of the human body and the text:

• The brain consists of 90% water.
• Blood consists of 83% water.
• Muscle consists of 73% water.
• Bone consists of 22% water.
• Water protects and moisturizes our joints, and transports nutrients and oxygen into cells.

Analyze the second question on the image

The second question contains fill-in-the-blank prompts based on a video reference and the "Galpin Equation":

1. "During the first ten hours of the day I should drink..." -> According to standard hydration protocols (often associated with Dr. Andy Galpin's recommendations), a common guideline is to drink approximately 32 oz (or about 1 liter) of water during the first 10 hours of waking, or specifically 1 oz of water per hour of being awake.
2. "When exercising the 'Galpin Equation' says: Take your body weight in pounds and divide that by 30. This is how many oz. of water I should drink every 15-20 mins." -> The Galpin Equation for hydration during exercise is:

$$ \text{Water (oz) every 15-20 minutes} = \frac{\text{Body weight in lbs}}{30} $$

Answer:

Question 1

1. The brain is composed of an extremely high percentage of water (90%).
2. Blood consists of 83% water, which is crucial for transporting nutrients and oxygen throughout the body.

Question 2

• During the first ten hours of the day I should drink 1 oz of water per hour of waking (or approximately 10-15 oz total depending on baseline weight).
• When exercising the "Galpin Equation" says: Take your body weight in pounds and divide that by 30. This is how many oz. of water I should drink every 15-20 mins.
