A member asked:
Is it true that as a male in my early 30s, i should be drinking about 0.5 litres more fluids a day because i had a kidney stone a few years ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, more than .5L: You should drink enough water so that your urine is watery, more or less colorless and odorless.
