That's my next thread. the 64 oz of water per poster thread. You must check in daily. Actually you are supposed to drink 1/2 your body weight in oz of water I think.

All of these "you should drink this much water" claims are completely made-up and have been debunked by scientific studies.

Don't make me start a How To Do a Little Research thread.

I was using the National Institute of Medicine's report. I was kidding about the thread based on prior posts today. But I would be interested to see your counter information.

What I am taking from the majority of these articles is that there is no additional health benefit above the recommended daily level ...ie drinking more than 8 glasses per day will not give you any more benefit than drinking the 8 glasses....actually I'm seeing more than 8 glasses recommended, but that may include other fluid intake.

Fluid intake includes the liquid content of your food and non-water beverages.
