Abstract:
Abstract:Water is essential for human survival and development, and participates in many physiological functions. The three sources and four pathways of water maintain the dynamic balance of body water. Drinking water is the main source of water for the body, and urine excreted through the kidney is the main way for the body to excrete water. Water drinking behavior includes water intake and water type selection. Analyzing hydration state and health from the perspective of water intake and water type selection, the paper found that the research on water intake and widing behavior needed more attention in China. It is necessary to carry out more investigations on drinking water and voiding behaviors in China, and to explore the associations of water drinking and voiding behaviors with health. It will provide scientific data for revising the recommendation on adequate water intake for Chinese residents, to promote the formation of healthy water drinking and voiding behaviors, to maintain adequate hydration state, and to promote health ultimately.
