Water is important for metabolic purposes because water is essential to flush out toxins through the body after eating as well as distributes nutrients through your body.

Energy obtained from the metabolic nutrients is utilized for various growth and other maintenance processes. Water is the medium for various enzymatic & chemical reactions in the body. It moves nutrients, hormones, antibodies and oxygen through the blood stream and lymphatic system.
