We are often advice to drink 2.7 liters of water everyday in order to keep us healthy and dehydrated. So are you aware of how much water do you drink everyday? Do you think you meet the right amount of water required to drink every day? How many glasses of water do you drink every day?

What I do is I have a big bottle beside me and I take a gulp little by little until I realize that I have already drank the whole bottle of water.

Hey careguarden! I think that we are supposed to be drinking 8 6 ounce glasses of water a day or the opposite! I'm not quite sure! I drink as many glasses of water as i can stand! The hotter it gets, the more cold water I drink! I know that when it is hot we need to drink more water because we sweat and lost more water. I am very sensitive to the heat and try to keep myself as hydrated as possilbe! Whenever I do out I always take a nice cold bottle of water with me! And, like today when I forget I get really upset with myself! Luckily, it was only 80 degress and I wasn't outside that long!

Yeah, you are right , we need more water daily to protect our body from illnesses but drinking too much of cold water can affect our throat right? Because the hotter the weather our throat always wanted cold one's.So, my mother always remind me to not drinking too much of cold because it can affect my healthy body. thanks for sharing your comments and have a nice day Godbless

Oh, really? well that can truly affect your skin conditioned not just to mentioned the overall negative effect to your health. Water plays major rule in removing or flushing out toxins in our body from the food the we eat. So if you don't drink enough water then your body will be affected or let say will suffer. So I think it could be best for you to drink plenty of water every day. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

I try to drink that much water. Honestly I don't know how much water I drink a day. We have a Deer Park machine at my job so I'm always at the water cooler ;) Also I'm always running to the bathroom, my co worker are starting to think I'm pregnant. Anyway pretty soon I want to be only drinking water and 100% Juices. Wish me luck.

I see to it I meet 8 glasses of water everyday. Early morning I used to drink 2 glasses of water before breakfast, 2 glasses at break-time and 2 glasses during lunch.And 2 glasses at around 3pm. and 2 glasses during dinner time. So I consumed 8 to 10 or more glasses everyday, enough to cleanse my body of any impurities and help my digestive system eliminating waste materials.

I always drink at least 2 litres a day. I keep a lire bottle of water on my desk and fill up my glass and then refill the bottle when it's empty. I started the habit on my diet and have kept with it since, it works wonders for your skin too!

Wow! that's really good for you oldchem, water therapy could really make wonder into our health and of course to our skin as well. It's a good habit that I think everyone should do and make it as part of their daily routine. As we all know that health is wealth. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

i feel bad about myself when i saw your topic...and i'm very guilty... i was told by my doctor to increase my water intake after i had a ESWL procedure done to remove my renal stone..and until now i still haven't changed my water intake practice... i can very much survive a day without drinking water as long as i'm doing anything strenuous...=(* and i just don't like drinking water..
