WATER INTAKE: It's not what goes in that's most important, it's what volume of urine you make. A non-stone forming person with normal heart should make 1-1.5 liters of urine per 24 hr. If youre a stone former this # is 2-2.5l/24 hrs. To prevent stone formation. Hot days will take more and inactive days will take less. When you drink it only determines when it will come out.

2 litres: Total fluids about 2 litres per day is good. If you are sweating more drink more. Not good or bad to drink before going to bed.
