Too much of anything is bad, just the same with drinking water. Drinking around 8 would I think be fine. </p> http://healthruns.com/health-forum/topic/how-many-glasses-of-water-do-you-take-each-day#post-131 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 01:34:53 +0000 bambie 131@http://healthruns.com/health-forum/ <p>Thanks andrei. That's a piece of information. So how much water should I take in? </p> http://healthruns.com/health-forum/topic/how-many-glasses-of-water-do-you-take-each-day#post-122 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 00:35:49 +0000 andrei 122@http://healthruns.com/health-forum/ <p>Marko, drinking 8 glasses of water a day has become an accepted wisdom. But DMS physician Heinz Valtin, MD says its not necessary. He even pointed out some disadvantages of high water intake:</p> <p>1. possible exposure to pollutants, especially if sustained over many years;<br /> 2. frequent urination, which can be both inconvenient and embarrassing;<br /> 3. expense, for those who satisfy the 8 x 8(for eight, eight-ounce glasses) requirements with bottled water;<br /> 4. feelings of guilt for not achieving 8 x 8. </p> http://healthruns.com/health-forum/topic/how-many-glasses-of-water-do-you-take-each-day#post-120 Tue, 17 Nov 2009 06:56:52 +0000 Admin 120@http://healthruns.com/health-forum/ <p>8 glasses of water is something like a magical number. You can drink more or less. But it is recommended that you drink at least one or two glasses of water more than what you would drink when you are thirsty </p> http://healthruns.com/health-forum/topic/how-many-glasses-of-water-do-you-take-each-day#post-114 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 21:25:03 +0000 now_i_m_here 114@http://healthruns.com/health-forum/ <p>I have never counted how many glasses of water itake each day?<br /> But i am sure that will be far more than 8. </p> http://healthruns.com/health-forum/topic/how-many-glasses-of-water-do-you-take-each-day#post-112 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 14:41:38 +0000 andrei 112@http://healthruns.com/health-forum/ <p>Ahh.. too bad. Sometimes I don't reach 8 glasses. I don't exercise much, I don't sweat much, I don't feel thirsty much. Would the minimum of 8 glasses still applicable to me? </p> http://healthruns.com/health-forum/topic/how-many-glasses-of-water-do-you-take-each-day#post-104 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 14:10:43 +0000 marko 104@http://healthruns.com/health-forum/ <p>Science says one should drink a minimum of 8 glasses of water a day. I drink around 10..:) </p>
