RE: 💧 How Much and What Kind of Water is Best for Your Health?

in #health7 years ago

One of the sites that I was looking at told my that, according to my weight and height, I should be drinking like 150oz of water per day. I'm thinking, wow, I'll be water-logged pretty quickly.

Really? What site was that? 4.5 liters of water a day you would be spending a lot of your day in the bathroom. Unless, of course, this was taking into account something like exercising outside in the heat.

Very interesting. I think I'll stick with thirst and "output" color to guage my hydration 😉.

Thanks for stopping by! I'd love to see that site and understand their rationale.

Unfortunately I don't remember what the actual site was b/c it was a basic Google Search. Their calculation was based on 1/2 Oz. of water per Lb. of Weight. I think it was something to do with skin elasticity, if I recall correctly... eg. that is like some optimal amount to drink for weight loss in order to allow your skin the most elasticity. Seemed like an awful lot of water to drink to me as well.
