It is recommended that we drink 6-8 glasses of water a day? Do you do this? What else do you drink regularly. I drink tea which is water based so i suppose i am stil drinking water when i drink tea.

I can't tell if I drink enough of the recommended glasses. I do have a huge tumbler for me to gulp on enough water for the day. When I'm out, I still prefer water to order on.

I think the recommended quantity varies with the weather conditions and diet. The absolute minimum over the long term is about 1.6 litres. In 1.6 litres 600ml is for urine,200ml is for fecal losses and 800ml for losses via the skin and lungs. But if you consume large quantities of water that may be the sign of diabetes and some psychiatric diseases. Much of world's disease is caused by the lack of clean drinking water.

I drink much more water than that per day.
Usually it is between 2 and 2 and a half litres.

I've been doing so much better with drinking water. I've been drinking about 7 glasses of water lately. I'm trying to make more of an effort to live a healthier lifestyle

I drink very less water but drink more tea or coffee. More than anything I drink beer to the same content of water required for body daily. I hope this will keep me healthy and rather want to find if it helps me drinking those things.

I am really healthy as I normally drink filtered water all day unless I have a fruit herbal tea. I actually enjoy drinking water which I guess helps. I do sometimes drink fruit juice but prefer to have the freshly extracted ones I make with my juicer.


myLot reputation of 76/100. charlie69 (294)  6 years ago

I would just like to congratulate you on being so healthy. A lot of people dont realise the importance of what they drink and only think about their food. Personally, i dont drink fizzy pop such as cola and mainly stick to water but like i said i do drink tea. I like green tea too and thats supposed to be good for you. The only time i dont stick to this is when i go out and drink alcohol. Even then i avoid alcopops as they are just full of sugar, but i do sometimes have vodka and lemonade.

In my case, I think I drink water more than 8 glasses a day. I've made it a habit to go get myself a glass of water every now and then. Sometimes, I drink too much that I feel bloated. =) And also, the scorching heat here contributes to how many glasses of water I drink lately. =)


myLot reputation of 76/100. charlie69 (294)  6 years ago

I think it is good that you have made it a habit as often people do not realise how much they should drink and only drink when they are really thirsty.

Please excuse my warped sense of humour, especially after reading your previous post of 'woman dies from drinking too much water' then ironically posting on this response about are you drinking enough water? I wonder how much she drank, then I'd halve it! On a serious note, sorry for digressing because I go to the gym 5 times a week and water is essential for me to replace all the water I loose through perspiration I will drink 2 litres a day, which I think equates to 6-8 glasses, if my maths hasn't got a bit squiffy here. As well as water I drink lots of milk (protein) and blackcurrant. I'm never sure if water has to be plain water or whether if you mix cordial in with the water that that counts as your daily quota?


myLot reputation of 76/100. charlie69 (294)  6 years ago

Haha i didnt even realise that. I had posted this one first then was told about the woman in the wii contest. The water does still count as i drink water in tea but am told that still counts.

I try to drink about 8 glasses (roughly 4 pints) of pure water each day. It's not always easy to do, especially when i'm at work, because I can't keep running to the toilet throughout the day. But most days I think I manage to drink the full 8 glasses. I also drink tea, but usually limit myself to 3 cups per day. Lots of my colleagues drink coke, but I find that it makes me feel bloated, so I just stick to water.
