The human body is mostly water, around 50 - 70 percent. Exactly how much water your own body contains depends on how much muscle and fat you have. Muscle tissue has more water than fat tissue, so because the average male has proportionately more muscle than the average female body, it also has more water. For the same reason - more muscle - a young body has than an older one. You can live without food for weeks at a time, by digesting your own muscle and fat. But water is a total different ball game, without it you'll die in a matter of days.
