Yes though the actual amount of total gravitational pull on a human is so finitely small that it makes no real statistical difference. As I said about the same as if someone held a pebble about a foot over your head.
We are 80 percent water, though please keep in mind we are also not the size of a large lake let alone an ocean. Both of which are also effected by the turning of the Earth as well as the moon, though the moon is moving away and has been since the planets collided in the first place.
