I don't count the number of glasses of water I drink everyday. Does drinking coffee or juice count?

I drink to about 7-8 glasses a day, it is a good habit of yours to drink an adequate supply of water, but you should also know, not that you do this, but just for the sake of information, I read in the magazine, Reader's Digest, that drinking too much water can be harmfull, people who drink too much water or are addicted to drinking water, also called as waterholics, will cause you them to vomitt the same amount of water which was intaken, which was also overloading the stomach. So after a research, water can be harmfull for us, especially water which has been in plastic bottles and exposed to the Sun for a lot of time, that water can cause sickness, not only will it get hot, but the particles of the plastic will also breakoff from the water and mix with the water, another fact of drinking water is, if we breath in water, which we sometimes do when we are in a hurry or just came from excercising or running, the water's acidic value will change a little bit as it combines with the Carbondioxide we exhale and then it will turn into carbonic acid, which is slightly acidic and harmfull for us if we intake a large amount, so we should never breath in our glass of water and even try to breathe away from the glass of water so that it doesn't interconvert...

Thank you so much for the information. Actually, it sometimes happen to me after meals that I vomit the water that I just drank. And its been years that I put the freshly boiled water in the plastic container. I thought it was safe. thank so much for the info. I think I am a water addict already.

On an average, I drink about 2 to 3 litres of water day. I usually start the day with 2 or 3 glasses of water. It just freshens me up.

If I'm working I drink depends on my duty hours. You see I work as a flight attendant and when I'm in the aircraft I drink 1 liter for every 4 hours flying beside about 1 liter when I'm not flying in my duty days. But in my days off I drink at least 2 liters a day.
