I realize this may sound like a silly question, but with that story about the mother of two drowning from drinking two gallons of water for a radio station contest, I thought the need to ask:

Is it safe to drink, say, a gallon of water a day? That's several ounces over the 10 8-ounce glasses of water a day recommendation, and I'm not an athlete, so I wouldn't be sweating it out.

I'm just interested in keeping my body healthy. I wouldn't want to do something to harm it.

Also, what about two gallons a day? Or three even? Not that I'm planning on doing that, I'm just curious.

Serious answerers only please! Thanks! :)

I always find something to stress out about. School, my professor pissing me off, appointments I have to make, life's problems etc. I really want to be calm. What can I do to alleviate the stress? Please be creative as I have already thought of many ideas.

I wanna say its MONO. But im not sure. I have no fever. A dry cough once in a while. Some muscle aches mostly sharp pains in my fingers and joints.. it is flu season. Also my cheekbones hurt when you touch them..my eyes are watery and get really itchy and hurt behing them. I mean a sinus infection cant cause pains, and nusea can it??

This past weekend my friend Katie had sex with a guy, and they are just friends. That same night she got a text from a guy that he is friends with and she has never even given him her #. Then on Tues. night he snuck over to her house and had sex again. She only told a couple of her closest friends and now random pp are saying stuff to him about it. He is now texting her saying he will hurt her or her friends if anything else is said and he mentioned guns and knives. What should she do???

I'm on the high school varsity track team, so I run and workout everyday. I also take really hard classes, so I'm exhausted everyday in school. But somehow, when it comes to bedtime (around 11pm - 12am) I can't fall asleep. What should I do?

I've started to get a really heavy period and I went to the doctor to get some birth conrol pills but she said to wait for another two months to see if it was just something irregular, but I don't want to have to wait for two months- do you think it would be ok if i got it now instead of waiting? and what are your opinions about which pill has the shortest, lightest period? i've heard about loestrin 24 and I've been thinking about getting that one, but I don't know...

btw- my mother also had a very heavy period and got birth control for it at my age...

I have been a vegetarian for a little over a year. I feel better than ever and truly believe that a low fat vegetarian diet is the optimal way to eat for maximal health.

However, over the last couple of months, I have noticed, shall I say, "Snap, Crackle, Pop". That's the best way to describe what I hear daily from my neck, shoulders, wrists, knees, etc. It is not painful, and I have not a clue what is causing it. I am otherwise in great health, but this frequent popping and cracking I seem to be hearing and feeling seems out of the ordinary. I have a theory, and I think it is related to a staple of many vegetarian diets. Please share your thoughts. Perhaps someone else has had a similar experience. Thanks so much for your help!
