Message: <blockquote data-quote="NoCrbs4Me" data-source="post: 1417347" data-attributes="member: 113206">No, you don't need to drink 10 - 12 litres a day. That's insane. Even 4 - 6 is too much, as is the proverbial "8 glasses of water a day". You only need to take in about 2.5 litres of water a day, and a lot of that will be in the food you eat, so there's no need to drink so much water. Of course, if you're in the desert or running a marathon you'll need more.  Drinking too much water flushes needed minerals out of your system and makes your kidneys work harder than needed. <a href="http://www.sciencealert.com/there-s-no-evidence-we-need-to-drink-eight-glasses-of-water-a-day-researcher-advises" target="_blank">http://www.sciencealert.com/there-s-no-evidence-we-need-to-drink-eight-glasses-of-water-a-day-researcher-advises</a></blockquote>
