Are You Drinking Enough Water?

Answer the following questions to help you calculate how much water you should be drinking today.

While water is very important for your health, there are some times when drinking too much water can be a problem:

• If you have any kidney or adrenal problems, or your doctor has you taking diuretics, you need to consult with your doctor about how much water to drink each day
• Don't drink all of the water you need per day all at once. Divide the amount you need and drink several glasses of water throughout the day. This is especially important if you engage in lots of heavy exercise.
• Infants should be given only formula or breast milk unless your pediatrician tells you otherwise.
