Recommendations are: 1/2 ounce per day of body weight in pounds. If someone weighs 300 pounds, would you believe he could maintain hydration as easily as someone weighing 100 pounds? This is not rocket science, folks -- it's common sense! Forget 8 glasses. Deal with the body volume!

I only drink a pint or so and seem to be ok on that, but then, I don't do an awful lot of exercise either. Again, horses for courses.

Trouble is, I read so many things, that unless I am looking into that particular thing at the time, I just remember snippets. Even if you remember all of it, confusion still exists. Many reasons exist for the confusion. The mainstream, and these doctors say one thing and alternative people say another. Many different numbers exist for the MDR or RDA.
