Summary
Identifying minimum water requirements for health protection is a very important concern, in particular to health authorities in Jordan, to avoid human suffering and distress. The relation between minimum water quantity and the health inside the household is not well established and affected by some confounding variables. This report aimed to determine more precisely, via a comprehensive review of literature and studies on this subject, what the relationship between water quantity and health is.
