DRINK

A drink or beverage is a liquid intended for human consumption. In addition to basic

needs, beverages form part of the culture of human society. Although all beverages, including
juice, soft drinks, and carbonated drinks, have some form of water in them, water itself is often
not classified as a beverage, and the word beverage has been recurrently defined as not referring
to water.

An alcoholic beverage is a drink containing ethanol, commonly known as alcohol,

although in chemistry the definition of an alcohol includes many other compounds. Alcoholic
beverages, such as wine, beer, and liquor, have been part of human culture and development for
8,000 years.

Non-alcoholic beverages often signify drinks that would normally contain alcohol, such
as beer and wine but are made with less than 5 percent alcohol by volume. The category includes
drinks that have undergone an alcohol removal process such as non-alcoholic beers and
dealcoholzed wines.

When the human body becomes dehydrated it experiences the sensation of thirst. This
craving of fluids results in an instinctive need to drink. Thirst is regulated by the hypothalamus
in response to subtle changes in the body's electrolyte levels, and also as a result of changes in
the volume of blood circulating. The complete elimination of , i.e. water, from the body will
result in death faster than the removal of any other substance. Water and milk have been basic
drinks throughout history. As water is essential for life, it has also been the carrier of many
diseases.

A beverage or drink is a form of liquid which has been prepared for human consumption.
This can include a number of different steps, some prior to transport, others immediately prior to
consumption.

Water is the chief constituent in all drinks, and the primary ingredient in most. Water is
purified prior to drinking. Methods for purification include filtration and the addition of
chemicals, such as chlorination. The importance of purified water is highlighted by the World
Health Organization, who point out 94% of deaths from diarrhea - the third biggest cause of
infectious death worldwide at 1.8 million annually - could be prevented by improving the quality
of the victim's environment, particularly safe water.
