It has been found that water considerably increases mental abilities in human beings. Research has been held and according to it students who drink water before tests performed 30% better than those who don't.

Researcher Dr Caroline Edmonds said: 'Children who had a drink of water performed significantly better on a number of tasks. Our findings suggest that consuming water benefits cognitive performance in children.'

It is possible that water improves the flow of information between brain cells, added Dr Edmonds.

Other possibilities include the water drinkers not being distracted by feeling thirsty.

I was at the dentist yesterday and he told me that drinking water can help prevent fillings as well - seems like there's nothing it can't do!

Water is the essence of all life. We are over 90% water after all and with the same salt gravity level in our blood then the Ocean water.
