A better rule of thumb
per day. Note that this may exceed 8 cups a day for some.
A half ounce per pound seems a reasonable amount to me to
keep the body both hydrated and flushed.
It is hard to apply any rule unless the environmental conditions are know.
My grandson carries a 3 gallon back pack and drinks the 3 gallons in one
day. Of course he is carrying another 65 pound pack and marches 25 miles
per day. Awesome. He takes 3 pair of socks.
100 miles in 4 days. Blisters on the feet, he just keeps walking.
Not many need that much water of course.
I have worked in places so hot that people with metal frame glasses had to
take them off.
The electrical boxes were so hot, we could not hold them in our hand.
I suppose you meant normal activity.
The amount and type food eaten has a bearing also. More protein requires
more water.
The hardest thing to understand is that if one does not drink enough water,
he never experiences the thirst sensation.
Supposedly thirst and hunger produces the same signals.
Many eat when they should drink.
Some drink fast and others sip. No wonder we are confused.
