No, there are problems with the text.Originally Posted by Sethinator
The body should actually be about 55% water, of which 2/3 is found intracellular and 1/3 of which is found in the extracellular fluid.
And of that, the body is really good at regulating water. Basically 2.2L from food/water consumption, and 0.3L produced from metabolic processes, and a little bit is reabsorbed from the distal nephrons. Excretion of water occurs through sweat/breath = 0.9L, 1.5L through urine, and 0.1L in feces. You can lose more water if you have diarrhea or diabetes.
Further more, caffeine is NOT acceptable. It does DOES cause more urine output since it is a diuretic. Do you even ADH?

Im sure the amount of water in a person varys thats pretty exact it looks like lol. But when i read that you get enough water out of caffeinated drinks nd energy drink it kind of threw me off.. i know that energy drink have high glucose levels which block off as much water absorption i believe

Every thing looked good until the caffiene part came up. Like someone mentioned, it's a diuretic and will make your piss more. So if this is based on water in vs water on, then the water source from caffiene isn't enough to outweigh the output of urine.

99% sure glucose doesn't affect water absorption.Originally Posted by Sethinator
Only blood pressure, presence of dilutes, and (hormonal) disorders can cause it to change.Misc Cologne Crew
