Is drinking a gallon of water a day normal?

Answer 1

It depends on why you do it. If you just want to make sure you get the proper fluids, yes. But if it's because you're really thirsty, it could be a problem. People who are diabetic tend to get thirsty a lot, that's one symptom anyway. Getting very tired, dizzy, sick feeling can also be a sign that you are diabetic.

Answer 2

Drinking a gallon a day is good for you, but most people don't do it. If you sweat a lot for any reason, you'll need to replace that water. If you tend to get kidney stones, drinking a gallon a day can prevent them. But if you have excessive thirst for no apparent reason, you might want to check with your doctor; it is a symptom of diabetes.
