The Exact Formula That Tells You How Much Water You Should Drink Per Day

Are you drinking enough water? Do you even know how much is enough? You should probably be drinking more than you do.

We all know that hydration is important. It has numerous benefits for health and wellbeing, including improving mood and brain functions and helping the organs work properly. But how many times in a day do you remember to have a glass of plain water?

The Formula

The simplest formula that will help you determine the recommended water intake per day is simple: your weight in kg x 0.6 ÷ 15. For example, if you weigh 145 pounds that’s around 66 kg. 66 x 0.6 ÷ 15 = 2.64 litres per day.

Water from food counts, too. You can drink 80% of the recommended water quantity and take the rest in the form of fruits and vegetables.

🇵🇱🇺🇸 Woda z miętą czy z cytryną? Gazowana czy nie? Co wolicie i czy pijecie? Ja lubię herbatę miętowa, ale wodę chyba bardziej czysta niegazowaną lub z cytryną. Z miętą też od czasu do czasu, ale rzadko. A zdjęcie w ramach wyzwania #instawtorek 🇺🇸 Water with lemon, clear or with herbs? With gas or without? I'd prefer clear or with lemon. Sometimes I like add herbs,but not so often. Pls let me know, do you remember about drinking water? #woda #wodazmiętą #wodazcytryną #zaczytana #czytam #ksiazkoholizm #kobiecafotoszkoła #książka #książki #onthebed #onthebedproject #dziewczynykfs #bookart #waterwithlemon #drinkingwater #wieczór #bookaddicted #bookalicious #mylifestyle #bookishescape #bookishevening

How to make sure you drink enough? The best thing you can do is to keep a reusable bottle with you all the time. Sip from it whenever convenient and refill it throughout the day.
