Question 9

should i be concerned if i drink 5 bottles of water each day . 16.9 fl oz (1.05pt) 500ml each bottle . is it bad ?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: However, are you drinking 5 bottles of water because you are thirsty or because someone thought it was a good idea?  Unless you have a history of kidney stones, you should be fine to drink somewhat less than 2.5+ liters of fluids (5 bottles of water + other sources of water).  For most patients, a total daily intake of 2L of fluids should be more than adequate.

Accepted Answer

: It all depends on your activity body size and climate. A normal person requires 6-8  glasses of liquids. If you are dehydrated you will be thirsty and pee more if you drink too much, So adjust your intake to what I said and not to any fixed amount
