....mean that the moon also has an effect on the human body, like it does with the Earth's tides?
Sorry if that doesn't make any sense, I'm not very good at wording things. :(

The moon has an effect on EVERYTHING on Earth. It doesn't have to be water. Even solid rock moves from the influence of the Moon's gravity.
The effect on a person is very very small - - - less than a nanometer. That's because people are so much smaller than the Earth.

The earth is not 70% water.
The surface of the earth is about 70% water, but overall the earth is less than 1% water.
The moon raises tides in the :
1) atmosphere
2) oceans
3) "solid" earth
Tides are only raised in world wide expanses. And 2 high tides and 2 low tides occur each day.
There are no tides, for instance, in the Great Lakes.
And of course none at all in a human body.
The cause of tides is differential gravity operating over the entire expanse of the earth.
The are due in almost equal measure to the sun and the moon. The moon's effect being slightly greater than the sun's.
An explanation of the tides is quite complicated.

living things almost certainly started in the oceans a billion years ago so the chemistry of life needs water
BUT we are not a sack of water like a water balloon H2O is in every cell and blood and most chemicals in the body, not our bones they are calcium mostly
keep learning it took humans tens of thousands of years to know what little we think we know now
they are looking for traces of water on mars . if they find it then MIGHT find signs of life, maybe

The SURFACE of the Earth is 70% water, and the moon has a slight gravitational pull on ANY kind of matter, not just water (rock, air,). If the moon disapeared, it would not significantly effect our health, height, or weight. I guess that's what you're asking
-
The tides are due to the DIFFERENCE in gravitational pull on the near and far side of the Earth. They are not due to the moon pulling on the water.
So the answer is: no, the moon doesn't affect the human body.

Yeah, I don't know why all these people are saying no? It affects child birth, look it up.

I actually never thought of that before. That's a very good question.I would guess If you searched hard enough then you would probably find some sort of myth to go along with that theory.

The only thing that affects the human body is the Earth.

No it does not how ridiculous can you be
