Hi, i think we should drink around 8 glasses of water every day. We can survive for 2 days without water (am not sure). To increase the intake of water we can increase the intake of other fluids like juices, lime water etc.

Living in a hot country means that I have to drink a lot of water daily just to avoid being dehydrated. I drink on an average 2-3 liters of water a day, If I exercise, the intake will be much more. One way to increase intake is to carry your personal water bottle. This means that you can drink water wherever you are.

Our average requirement of water during summer season is two to three litres per day! We can survive without water for a couple of days only! To increase the intake of water, drink a glass of pure cold-water in the early morning.

They say that one is supposed to drink 8 to 10 glasses of water per day.Also a good habit is drinking a full glass of water as soon as you get up...i.e after brushing your teeth.It helps a lot if you want to reduce weight and even is healthy...!!!

Hot summer are panic days and fond of water. I recently had a problem of having less intake of water so i consulted doctor. They said the normal intake to be 3 to 4lts, if you have more sweating then min 5 lts is necesary. Without water, we can survive but i am not guarantee about the organs always keep a bottle of water filled near to you and keep as a third hand werever u go! is this ok
