Presentation
Abstract The present study tested the effect of the combined use of alcohol and water on driving-related cognitions and behavior. Seventy-four female students performed a driving simulator task after having consumed alcohol or a placebo. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Entire Body System
- Falling
From fall 2010 to spring 2011, twenty Boston afterschool program sites participated in the Out-of-School Nutrition and Physical Activity (OSNAP) initiative, a group-randomized trial investigating nutrition and physical activity policies and practices [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
By 2030 the world’s fresh water supply is expected to fall short of demand by up to 40%. It’s time to rethink what we eat and the water we consume. [lentein.com]
The elevation has consistently declined throughout October and could again fall below the dam's normal operating level of 180 meters, which led to bouts of supply disruptions earlier this year. [cnnphilippines.com]
The amount of precipitation falling on land is almost 110 000 km 3 per year. About 56 percent of this amount is evapotranspired by forests and natural landscapes and 5 percent by rainfed agriculture. [fao.org]
- Fever
Your body loses fluids when you have a fever, vomiting or diarrhea. Drink more water or follow a doctor's recommendation to drink oral rehydration solutions. [mayoclinic.org]
A fever…. “Drink more water.” Banged up your knee…. “Drink more water.” Arm ripped off by a rabid gator… “Drink more water.” At the time I thought this was really funny. Ten years later, I realize the doctor had a great point. [developgoodhabits.com]
- Fishing
Here, we derived characterization factors for water consumption and global warming based on freshwater fish species loss. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

- Overeating
This paper analyzed land use changes in the middle reach of the arid Heihe River Basin in northwest China over the last two decades and their impacts on water resources and soil organic carbon (SOC) storage. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Substituting water for one 20-ounce sugar-sweetened soda will save you roughly 240 calories each time you make the swap, amounting to thousands of calories cut over time. [medicaldaily.com]

Over 713 gallons of water go into the production of one cotton t-shirt. An average, a five-minute shower uses 10 to 25 gallons of water. By 2030 the world’s fresh water supply is expected to fall short of demand by up to 40%. [lentein.com]
Musculoskeletal
- Fracture
[…] for hydraulic fracturing after it returns to the surface (referred to as flowback). [undeerc.org]

The water used for releasing the gas (hydraulic fracturing), however, has to be carefully managed at a local level. Concerns about potential contamination of freshwater supplies with hydrofracking fluids also need to be addressed. [belfercenter.hks.harvard.edu]
Skin
- Sweating
The best cooling system we have is sweating. You may not think of it this way, but sweating is actually an exchange of heat between your skin and the atmosphere. It's also a process that eats up a lot of fluids and electrolytes. [bodybuilding.com]
If exercise is intense and lasts more than an hour, a sports drink can replace minerals in your blood (electrolytes) lost through sweat. Environment. Hot or humid weather can make you sweat and requires additional fluid intake. [mayoclinic.org]
Consume water before it's needed and you'll avoid the negative effects of dehydration that occurs through sweating. When exercising create, a "early and often" attitude about water to stay properly hydrated. Click to Tweet 4. [developgoodhabits.com]
Neurologic
- Excitement
This report generated a fair amount of excitement and interest at the time and it’s subsequently been quoted so many times that it is still largely accepted as fact. [perspectives.mvdirona.com]

Serum
- Hyponatremia
When your kidneys can't excrete the excess water, the sodium content of your blood is diluted (hyponatremia) — which can be life-threatening. [mayoclinic.org]
Drinking too much water can result in hyponatremia, a condition in which you don't have enough sodium in your blood. [bodybuilding.com]

Treatment
We suggest that DDW treatment, when integrated into other forms of cancer treatment, might provide a new therapeutic option. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
As treatment technologies and fracturing fluid systems advance, there may be potential options for treatment, reuse, and/or recycling of nontraditional water supply sources for use in Bakken development, such as: Treatment and reuse of the water used [undeerc.org]

A six-year study published in the American Journal of Epidemiology found that people who drank more than five glasses of water a day were 41 percent less likely to die from a heart attack during the study period than those who drank less than two glasses [shape.com]

Prevention
Experimental evidence has linked increased water consumption to obesity prevention, and the National AfterSchool Association has named serving water as ones of its standards for healthy eating and physical activity in out-of-school time settings. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
