Detailed explanation-1: -We’ve all heard the age-old advice to drink eight cups of water a day. But if you fall short, don’t worry: That advice is probably wrong anyway. That’s according to new research, published in the journal Science, which found that for most healthy adults, drinking eight cups of water a day is completely unnecessary.
Detailed explanation-2: -The body needs water to function correctly, but drinking too much too fast can have serious health consequences. The kidneys can only remove 0.8 to 1.0 liters of water per hour, and a very high water intake can upset the body’s electrolyte balance.
Detailed explanation-3: -You are probably all aware of the “cardinal rule” that says adults should drink six to eight 8-ounce glasses of water per day.
