Even though water is one of the basic needs of every human and there are many studies and research focused on water, water is still a trending topic today. Namely, there are many men and women who are wondering how much water exactly they need to take on a daily basis.

The fact is that the number of water people needs to take daily is different for different people. The recommended amount depends on your lifestyle, physical and intellectual activity, diet and eating patterns, and even the environment that surrounds you.

So, the most convenient way to find out what exactly you need is to focus on your body and how you feel.

Dehydration is a health condition that starts to develop even before you notice the typical signs and symptoms like feeling thirsty. As a matter of fact, many people don’t know that hunger is one of the early signs of dehydration.

In case you think that you could use a snack, try drinking a glass of fresh water instead and check whether you feel the same after 5-10 minutes. People who are not really morning persons will definitely feel much better if they drink 2-3 glasses of water in the morning because drinking water stabilizes blood pressure.

In addition, this practice will help you detoxify the internal systems (thanks to frequent urination).

While we are talking about recommended water intake, we should also point out that the human body has a sophisticated system that is able to detect low water content in the body.

This system is known as thirst. When your body loses one or two percent of the complete water content, this change will alert the system and you will notice that you are thirsty.

Another great way to check whether everything is alright with the level of water content in your body is to analyze the appearance of the urine.

For instance, in most cases, dark urine suggests that the kidneys are keeping more fluid in order to keep the body functioning at an optimal level. Of course, urine can become dark for few other reasons like taking certain supplements for example.

So, in case you are dealing with dehydration, there is a great chance that you will urinate less. Some experts claim that a normal and healthy individual urinates somewhere between 6 and 8 times a day.dehaydration 1
