What is the recommended amount of water adults should drink daily??


Answers: I've heard 8 glasses a day, but snopes.com says that's an urban legend.

In general, to remain healthy we need to take in enough water to replace the amount we lose daily through excretion, perspiration, and other bodily functions, but that amount can vary widely from person to person, based upon a variety of factors such as age, physical condition, activity level, and climate. The 8-10 glasses of water per day is a rule of thumb, not an absolute minimum, and not of all of our water intake need come in the form of drinking water.
eight glass a day
8 glasses
6-8 glasses
6-8 8 oz glasses a day
They say 6 to 8, and 10 to 12 if you exercise a lot or if it is hot outside. But I recently heard that 4 is sufficient enough. I think it depends on the body. I am addicted to water not because I like it, because I don't, but I feel awful if I don't drink it everyday. I drink a TON of water in a week.
Your weight in ounces. Ex: 160 lbs = 160 oz of water you should drink just to keep you hydrated.

If your practice any sport or harder activity, you should drink at least 40 oz more.

This is according to my couch at the gym
