Help Blood Circulation

Over half your blood consists of a substance called plasma. It carries blood cells around your body to where they're needed, helps maintain a healthy blood pressure and keeps your body temperature under control. In short, it's pretty important. Plasma is around 90% water, so it can't do its job properly if you're dehydrated. Without enough water, your blood will become thicker and more concentrated. This means your heart has to work that little bit harder to pump it around your body.
