chaoskitty 0 #2 July 19, 2004 So you can keep track of how much water you drink per day. 64 oz is what most dieticians recommend for daily intake. But it is possible to drink too much water and mess up your electrolytes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

indyz 1 #4 July 19, 2004 The FDA actually has a document called the "Reference Amounts Customarily Consumed Per Eating Occasion", which lists water at 8 fl oz. This page explains how serving sizes are calculated from that list. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bch7773 0 #11 July 20, 2004 actually it turns out that the "8 glasses of water a day" thing was just kinda pulled outta thin air. there was a recent study that showed that 8 glasses a day is usually way too much for most people, and can damage you.
