Not drinking enough water is a habit that can lead to serious physical repercussions. When individuals don't drink enough water, they can become dehydrated. Dehydration comes on more quickly and more seriously for individuals who live in hot climates. Water is needed to regulate every process in the body. Most notably, water is necessary to clean the kidneys, which in turn filter toxins from an individual's blood. A recent study indicated dehydration causes mental decline as well as physical issues. In this study, when individuals engaged in a vigorous activity without drinking water, they had a markedly decreased ability to concentrate. The concentration issues were most noticeable when they took tests that were monotonous or required attention to detail. Coordination and complex problem-solving were particularly affected.
