Hey Faith, A good rule of thumd is half your body wieght in ounces of water. So if you weigh 160 pounds, that'd be pretty close to 3 liters or quarts of water per day. Weather and sweating would increase the amount. It's better to drink water in small amounts throughout the day then wait till your thirsty. When you feel thirsty it's because your body is dehydrated. You may have seen or heard of athletes chugging water and dropping dead from doing so?? When you chug in a large amount of water it pulls all the minerals including salt from your body and can stop your heart from beating on the spot, no salt no way for your heart to beat. This is why athletes drink gator-ade or other sports drinks because they contain electrolytes so that doesn't happen. Of course, they are loaded with food coloring and aspartame, so it would be better to drink a salt water mixture. Problem is they can't get paid from any company through endorsements for drinking salt water. The sports drinks do taste pretty good too, unlike salt water.
