pasting the OP in case image 404s:
Water is not just a solvent, it's a nutrient, as it cause hydrolysis, the most abundant nutrient on the body.
Most physicians already know nothing about nutrition, let alone water.
Dry lips isn't a sign of dehydration, you can be dehydrated and have normal lips. 66% of the dehydration process is intracelullar, 26% is interstitial and 8% is sanguineous (F. Batmanghelid). Dr. Peter Agre won the nobel prize in 2003 for discovering how water penetrates human cells (aquaporins).
The thirsty sensation does not stay the same over age, you lose that ability as you grow older, you also become more dehydrated as you age. You know you're dehydrated if your piss is not transparent.
No other fluid can substitute water, coffee is a diuretic, it dehydrates you.
People in Hunza, Pakistan. have an average life expectancy of 100 years old and exceeding 120 years in some cases. Dr. Henri Coanda found out the reason was the water they drank, which has the following characteristics:
>low superficial tension (this allows for easier access of water to organs in the body, the water "has less resistance", it's "lighter")
>alkaline pH (has more oxygen due to increassed number of hydroxide, note, it's an ion, not the hydroxyl radical. Also, an alkaline pH makes the stomach produce more sodium bicarbonate to compensate for the HCl production, which in turns ends up "alkalizing" the tissues inside the organs to keep blood pH homeostasis, this keeps you young longer. You lose this buffering mechanism with age though).
>abundant minerals (high conductivity)
>antioxidant action
