Water. Its the most precious thing after oxygen. Its vital. There are so many people in the planet who are having hard times getting access to clean water fit for drinking. In our neighbourhood we had problems with the quality of drinking water before but now they are ok
Still I couldn't build the habit of drinking enough water and I only drink when thirsty. What about you. Do you drink water as doctor's recommend?

Lately I consume almost 4 litres per day. That is because of the heat and humidity. I spike my water with a slice of lemon for flavor. Makes it more enjoyable to drink.

I think that we should drink a minimum of 4 glasses of water a day whether thirsty or not as our thirst mechanism might not function well as we age. I never get thirsty. How could that be?

@Sojourn I can be out all day and when I get home I have to push myself to drink water. I have read that as we get older the thirst mechanism doesn't work well and that we should make sure we drink enough water whether we're thirsty or not. We should measure the water that we need to drink in a day in the morning and make sure that by the time we go ton bed that we have drunk it all.

Since I have a bit of a heart problem, my doctor only advice me 4 to 5 glasses of water a day. I don't if I am following because I don't count my intake.
