doctors say like that. Actually I drink 5 or 6 glasses a day. I don't know it is enough or not. If I drink 8 glasses I get full.

Actually, you will not notice it that you have gone way beyond 8 glasses in a day if you will make it a habit to be seated at all times with a glass of water by your side. Another trick is, always take a bottle of drinking water with whereever you go. You will find that you will have the urge to take sips of water while in transit from minute to minute.

Unless I've been sweating a lot, I usually only drink somewhere between 4-6 glasses of water. Any less and I'll feel immensely dehydrated. 8 glasses of water is recommended amount, however it doesn't differ from person to person - for example an athlete would drink a lot more than a sedentary person.

You will need to take a minimum amount of 8 full tall glasses at 240 ml per glass. That will amount to approximately 2 liters in a day in addition to the other liquids that you are taking. Doctors are aware that we take so much other liquids daily. So the doctor told me that I will need to take only approximately a liter and a half each day. This is because a gallon of natural fruit juice which I produce myself from out of calamansi, lemon, oranges or pineapple gets consumed in no time at all in my house. Recently, he said that if i do wish to, a liter of water a day in addition to my fruit juice intake will be fine. No, I do not find it any trouble to take way so much more water in a day. Most of us in this house, consumes more than two liters of water per person on a daily basis. This is because we are used to having a glassful of water alongside where we get seated as a matter of habit.

For me, it really different every day! If I stay home, I will drink water a lot, but when I go out, I did't have so many chance to have water! And how mucs is big cup really is? I drink water every mornig, but I can't finish a small cup, just so much for me to drink in the morning!
