Littlediet is back - Water to fight against HAZE

Littlediet has been not updated for two weeks. The busy life just doesn't end and weather in Malaysia is below healthy level due to haze. Therefore, water is a appropriate topic to start with.

Have you ever realized that water can give you power or energy too? Can you feel the recharging or refreshing after a mouthful of water? Of course, water do not have any energy, at here which means calories free. It is such a natural precious resources for human, animals, plants and eventhough our lovely planet.

70% of our body make with water. It can conclude that everyone also make from water as water almost occupied ¾ of our body. Water is the most important nutrient for life and has many important functions including regulating temperature, lubricating joints and transporting nutrients and waste throughout the body.

Fluid requirement for each people is different according to age, weight and activity level. Most of the infants since born is able to drink maternal milk only. Maternal milk actually already contains all the nutrients and fluid need for a newborn baby and usually they do not need top up with others fluids such as plain water. Some parents might worry their baby might have inadequiate fluid intake, but actually no worries on that. A newborn baby can easily get adequate fluid intake just from maternal milk where their immune system is not yet being fully develop, thus not strong enough against bacteria in water, better avoid plain water directly like what adults take. After a few weeks, when theie immune system is fully developed especially gut system (being the largest immune system of body), there will be no problem for drinking more amount of plain water. 

你有没有意识到，水可以给你力量或正能量吗？你能感觉到喝水后那滋润感和被充电的感觉吗？当然，水是没有任何卡路里的。水是属于大自然恩赐于人类，动物，植物和滋养了我们的地球的珍贵东西。我们应当好好珍惜它，不应滥用。

你知道我们身体内大部分都是水？这几乎是我们的身体大约70％。每个人都是由水组成的，由于它在我们的体内几乎占据了三分之四。水是生命中最重要的营养物质，并已包括调节温度，润滑关节和全身各处运送营养物质和废物的许多重要功能。

其实每个人的水分需求是根据不同的年龄，体重和活动水平。婴儿自出生只需喝母乳，这是因为产妇乳汁实际上已经包含了所有的营养物质和所需液体。有些家长可能会担心他们的孩子可能摄取不够的水分，但实际上他们没有必要担心。新生婴儿可以很容易地就从母乳摄入足够的液体。新生婴儿的免疫系统尚未充分健全，因此不易对抗水中的细菌。几个星期之后，当他们的免疫系统正在全面健全，尤其是肠道系统（即人体最大的免疫系统），那就不会有问题了，应该给予适量的水分。
