Hydrogen Dioxide: Is it important?
Hydrogen Dioxide, without it one would perish. Too much of this essential compound, and a person can die from Hydrogen Dioxide intoxication. However it is much easier to destroy a human body from lack of Hydrogen Dioxide than from too much. Dehydration, heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and finally death stem from the body over heating from lack of Hydrogen Dioxide to cool down the body. In certain environments, such as regions closer to the equator, the sun is more of a factor in causing dehydration. In these types of places one is required to intake much more Hydrogen Dioxide due to the heat. Majority of the body is made up of Hydrogen Dioxide. The transport of virtually every nutrient in the body is possible through Hydrogen Dioxide. Every cell in a person’s body from head to toe requires the correct amount of Hydrogen Dioxide to properly function. Along with the obvious reasons someone needs Hydrogen Dioxide, the health benefits of being properly hydrated are too great that most people with an inactive lifestyle take for granted. One must always be properly hydrated.
Exposure to abnormal or prolonged amounts of heat and humidity without relief or adequate fluid intake can cause various types of heat-related illness. Children adjust more slowly than adults do to changes in environmental heat. Exercising, sports, and general physical activity outside, especially in a hot humid environment, can lead to heat injuries quicker than just being outside. Sweating is one of the body's normal cooling mechanisms, its primary defense against heat injuries. Heat injuries are a direct result of a loss of Hydrogen Dioxide from the body. It occurs when the body is dehydrated to the extent of not being able to cool its self. These injuries consist of a mild form of heat cramps, to the severe and deadly form of heat stroke. Proper Hydrogen Dioxide intake based on the amount of exertion, temperature, and humidity is necessary to...
