EIKÖ VESI RIITÄ?
Riittävä nesteen saanti on välttämätöntä elimistön toiminnalle ja aineenvaihdunnalle. Vettä tarvitaan lämmönsäätelyyn, ruoansulatukseen, ravintoaineiden imeytymiseen ja kuljettamiseen sekä kuona-aineiden poistoon. Nestettä tarvitaan sekä solujen sisä- että ulkopuolisten toimintojen säätelyyn. Suurin osa kehon nesteistä on solujen sisällä. Pelkkä vesi ei aina imeydy soluihin riittävän tehokkaasti, vaan lisäksi tarvitaan mm. elektrolyyttejä: natriumia, kaliumia, kloridia, magnesiumia ja kalsiumia.
