Enough water in a day?

The amount of water we consume in a day is vital to maintaining helathy bodies.

Our body is approximatley 60% water and even a slight decrease in this amount can effect us quite a lot.

Below is a summary I found of the functions of water in our body.

It is recommened that we drink approximately 8 glasses a day....just wondering how many people actually do this.....?

WassalamuAlaykum

i just drink whenever im thirsty be that 1 glass or a hundred :p (its never reached that though :skeleton:)...i dont get them people who shove water down their throats every 2 seconds *coughmysiscough* :D..i mean if your body needed water, then you would be thirsty, right :? so why do people insist on forcing themselves to drink like 8 glasses a day :? i seriously don't get it :confused:
 
I have a 750ml bottle with me everywhere I go and its always filled! Alhamdulillah...I've got one in my bag, one in the bedroom etc...so wherever I am, inside or outside the house, I always have a bottle of water with me.
 
Ramlah: I know what you mean, but take me for example, I just love drinking water not because I am thirsty, but because I am so used to it and it is also healthy. When I drink, I only take 2-3 sips but I drink throughout the day, and very often!
 
:sl:
I drink 3-4 mugs of tea, which originally is water....:skeleton:
Maybe a glass of juice.
Water itself? Maybe 1-2 glasses a week?

Seriously.

:w:
 
I drink lots of plain water (more than 8 glasses), especially when I am in the office where the air-condition makes my eyes and throat very dry,,,

If it's a very hot day, I could drink more than 8 bottles (1.5 litre each)
 
we drink lots of water in tropical countries.... in fact we take shower 2 times per day minimum.... usually 3 times ... some people ... 5 times every day... we spent loads of water for shower everyday....

we hav alot of water probs here in pak sometimes we hav to store water.
 
:sl:

Ok to tell u the truth I should have voted for the last option the only time I remember actually getting through eight glasses of water was when i went for umrah lol...I'll get there one day inshallah

:w:
 
Oh yeah come to think of it I remember a story our biology teacher once told us back in college about sum women that was competing in some tournament to see who could drink the most water for a wii... unfortunately poor woman died of over hydration (is there such a word..) before getting her hands on that wii... lesson to be learnt don't get too carried away with drinking water....

Lol sis wildkat beat me to it see her link
