I know it's drilled into us that we should drink plenty of water, but there's no real guideline!! One source might say we should drink 8 glasses, another would say we should drink several gallons of water. On a completely other tangent, it seems that drinking too much water can be bad for you?!

Personally speaking, I never calculate how much water I drink one day. I also heard that an adult should drink eight glass of water a day, but I think how much water a person should drink depends on his or her own condition. I often drink water when I feel a little thirsty. In my view, it's a good habit of drinking a little every time and frequently in a day.

it is 2.5 liters average according to my girlfriend who is a medical student. I think she is right on that.

Not sure however i can say the full day will have a seven to eight glasses .Drinking water just is good for health because water can clean the inner system .
