Even in developed countries there are cases of people falling sick and even dying from drinking unsafe water. It is no secret that there is a correlation between contaminated drinking water and a variety of diseases and health problems. It is necessary and prudent to be aware of the different water contaminants, especially the most common ones.

yes you are also right, and people should be aware of unsafe water and should be educated on the things how to make water safe to drink.. like here in our country, i drink distilled or mineral water but for others they will boil the water first and let it cool and then drink it.. water is very important for all of us..

A glass full of water is normally 250 ml. So you are asking 2.5 liters of water to be drunk a day but this depends upon the climate arround and the habitat of the person as well as the body weight and the obesity of the person too. The humidity affects your water requirment a lot. The sweating differs because of the type of work you do. So I think the water consumption would be too different from person to person and can not be formatted in any specific quantity as such. Al the best from oarnamav.

Same here, I can't reach 8 glasses of water because I always feel bloated whenever I do drink that much. Besides, there's no use because I always pee the same amount of liquid that I drink. But I'm trying to up my water intake because it's been so hot here lately and I'm afraid that I might get dehydrated.
