Drinking water is essential for overall health and heart health. It makes up about 60% of the human body and is necessary for many bodily functions. Staying hydrated helps the heart pump blood more easily by preventing thickening of the blood from dehydration. When dehydrated, the heart must work harder to circulate blood through the body. Drinking enough water daily is important to maintain proper hydration.
