How many litres of water should i drink everyday?

Question

I drink about 2 litres a day, but i read somewhere that it is better to drink 4 litres. But that's just crazy... isn't it?

Answer 1

2.2, roughly 8 glasses of water.

Answer 2

1 to 3

Answer 3

2 L is about right. It's supposed to be a bit more for guys (3 L), and 2.5 L for pregnant women. Of course, even the usual amount will have to be modified if the person is constantly working out (maybe you read that in some exercise mag), but I think for a normal person to drink that could be dangerous. There is such a thing as overhydration too.

Answer 4

The metric conversion is actually 1.89 litres. If you are currently drinking two litres, then you are doing just fine. Of course, on hotter days, you may wish to drink more in order to stay sufficiently hydrated.

Answer 5

But it depends partly on what kind of climate you live in and what kind of things you do. The bare minimum you should drink is a liter a day.

But if you were, for example, walking all day across a very hot, dry environment, you might need to drink up to four liters a day. Adults might need to drink more. You see, it depends on what you are doing and what conditions you are living in.

Answer 6

I've heard that you should at least try and drink 1/2 of your body weight in ounces everyday. Especially if you are on a weight loss program.

Answer 7

2 is good 3 is better

Answer 8

eight glasses a day which just over two liters. the more you drink the better though (within reason).

Answer 9

2 is fine

Answer 10
