Water

I have tried to put together few of stunning facts which would amaze us... Also some of them are very very funny... Not wasting any more time on preface, lets get started.... First things first and that is.....

Water


We all know that two-thirds of a person’s body weight is water. But did we know the composition organ-wise?

- Blood 92%
- Brain 75%
- Muscles 75%
- Heart 75%
- Lungs 86%
- Liver 85%
- Kidney 83%
- Bone 22%
- Saliva 95%
- Perspiration 95%

Hmm so when you come across a dumb person, try giving him some water to boost up the dried out 75% of brain.. :-)

Now that we know how essential water is for us, lets see how much do we take it and use it and waste it..

- US uses about 346,000 million gallons of fresh water every day.
- US uses nearly 80 percent of its water for irrigation and thermoelectric power.
- A healthy person can drink about three gallons (48 cups) of water per day.
- Average person in the US uses anywhere from 80-100 gallons of water per day.
- Flushing the toilet actually takes up the largest amount of this water.
