H2O: The Lifeblood of Peak Performance
The human body is comprised of primarily water. It is found in every aspect of our anatomy and is physiologically responsible for major roles in our normal function. The need for water is heightened when we work hard, particularly in the heat and humidity.
In general, water helps carry our nutrients, vital electrolytes, and virtually every other substance in our body to our skeletal muscles, brain and organs. It also plays an essential role in fuel digestion, intestinal absorption, and maintaining normal kidney function.
Often overlooked, water is an essential nutrient and vital for life as it serves many functions:
- Composes 75% of our brain and muscle volume
- Helps regulate body temperature
- Approximately 83% of our blood volume
- Helps to carry nutrients and oxygen to our cells
- Moistens oxygen for optimal lung function
- Essential for fuel digestion and absorbtion
- Helps the liver remove waste
- Composes 22% of our bones
- Cushions our high-impact joints
- Protects and cushions our vital organs

PREVENT DEHYDRATION
Water is lost daily from sweating, urine, stool, skin evaporation, climate changes, high altitudes, and muscular contraction during exercise. It is vital that our intake of water is greater than our output, but this often difficult to do in a 1:1 ratio.
When we exercise, our heart rate increases as a function of an increased demand for energy and oxygen. The more we demand from our body, the faster our muscles send signals to demand a quick supply of blood. But if you don't drink enough water, this process becomes less efficient. As we sweat during exercise the body is also losing sodium. If the cells are not adequately hydrated, the cell will shrink and this can result in accelerated fatigue, muscle pain, spasms, cramps and slowed muscle growth and repair.
ESSENTIAL LIFEBLOOD
Water is necessary for protein synthesis; if you are lacking water your body may break down muscle tissue which will slow down your performance progress and in turn, make your muscles weaker.
Water is a vital part of our day and we need to make sure we are at least drinking half of our body weight in ounces of water per day. (Remember, milk, coffee, tea also count toward your total fluid intake). SWORD® is a great mixture of hydration and fuel as it provides both water and valuable sodium electrolytes to the cells to avoid shrinkage, maximize exercise performance and helps prevent dehydration.
