EU officials concluded that, following a three-year investigation, there was no evidence to prove the previously undisputed fact.

Telegraph article

A meeting of 21 scientists in Parma, Italy, concluded that reduced water content in the body was a symptom of dehydration and not something that drinking water could subsequently control.

There really aren't any words that I can say to this. My main response is that it really says a lot about bureaucratic red tape when something as long-held and self-explanatory as "water prevents dehydration" has to undergo a 3-year study.

Aside from this, you really have to wonder at the science these people employed if there's no evidence that drinking water helps prevent dehydration.
