Water consumption
Water consumption has been studied in 3 papers since 2018: 3 observational studies in people. The newest paper, Jan 31, 2023: “The Association between Water Consumption and Hyperuricemia and Its Relation with Early Arterial Aging in Middle-Aged Lithuanian Metabolic Patients”.

What is Water consumption linked with?
2Studies link Water consumption with 2 measures, most often carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (1 study) and mild cognitive impairment (1).

Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity
upin humans1
Water consumption is associated with carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity in humans (hyperuricemic women, with age, fasting glucose, and systolic blood pressure) (R2 = 0.45, Adj. R2 = 0.42, p < 0.001).
“In hyperuricemic women, drinking less than 0.5 L per day in combination with other risk factors, such as age, increasing fasting glucose, and systolic blood pressure, was statistically significantly associated with an increased cfPWV”

Water consumption is linked with a lower risk of mild cognitive impairment in humans (multivariable-adjusted) (OR: 0.64; 95% CI: 0.51, 0.82).
