Hydration is incredibly important. Health experts assert that many, if not most, people live in a constant condition of dehydration. Few of us take in the amount of water that we should. One should not go overboard with drinking hundreds of ounces of water a day, but one must absolutely maintain a baseline level for health. Simple things like not confusing thirst for hunger (surprisingly common) can be helpful in strategizing to avoid dehydration.

Athletes must be especially mindful of proper hydration. Sweat loss through exertion requires that athletes hydrate in order to keep everything running in top form. Water is necessary to promote the transportation of various nutrients, as well as to assist in elimination of waste products from the body. Water is responsible for lubricating joints and tissues, as well as regulating body temperature. Water also aids the body to digest foods.
