Water is known as a universal solvent. Which allows things like salt, sugar, and acids to dissolve. The reason water stabilizes the body's temperature is because the human body is about 55% to 75% water. And your body needs between one to seven liters of water to function properly and avoid dehydration. The water helps maintain and regulate the body's temperature and humidity.
