How much a day?

[Starsaboveus]

How much water / liquid should you be drinking in a day ? As in litres or mls? For a female adult ?

@Happyheartlovelife do you have to go to the loo all the time? Or does your bladder adjust?

I asked a dr this and he said around 2 litres a day,

The radio 4 / Podcast : More or Less discusses this very question on 6th Jan 2017 (sorry I don't know how to link it).

As I've always thought the 6-8 recommended glasses applies to men.
I'm much smaller than the average man, I get most of my water from the food I eat and drink the rest in tea & coffee (the above podcast discusses whether these count or not too).
I judge if I need to drink on how much I've drank that day/thirst/my activity/the heat & the colour of my pee not a set measurement.

It depends on so much, everyone’s different.

But as long as your wee is straw coloured yellow and not a dark yellow you’re fine.
