VI. Water
The final micronutrient that does not provide any energy but certainly is very, very important to many bodily functions is water. And as many of you probably know it makes up about 60 percent of the body's weight, and water's involved in virtually every process in your body. It's recommended that we get about six to eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day. More is perfectly fine and probably even good for you. In particular, if you're being physically active, then you'll need to drink more than that six to eight glasses per day.
