I think a minimum of 8 glasses or 3-4 standard 1l water bottles should be enough.  Irrespective of the activities or body type we need a minimum of 8 glasses of water. It is a popular belief that when we feel thirsty we should drink water, but it isn't true. We should drink water water in regular intervals.

It depends from person to person. Ideal requirement is said to be 7-8 glasses on a daily basis but our body tells us when we are thirsty.

To make sure that you consume the required amount of water, drinking two glasses of water 15 mins before any meal not only helps , it also makes sure that you dont overeat...Once you develop this habit you dont have to worry since you take in about 2 liters of water which is essential for the system..

Take 8 glasses of water daily to avoid motion problems because it is the basic reason for all problems. Take water in regular intervals. You should not drink lot of water because it cause kidney problems. You should consult a doctor and check your weight and he will suggest how much water you should take.

Its good to have water between regular intervals in a day. It refreshes us and a good medicine to many health related problems. But, its necessary to have 3 litres of water everyday to lead a balanced and healthy life.

simmi and i know a person who do not drink enough water and is suffering from stone which is too edgy. when the stone is coming out from the urine pipe it cuts that pipe and then the doctors operate and change his urine pipe into the plastic pipe. after sometime they have done the bypass surgery. So it is important to drink more and more water. IF you drink more water than it does not affect our body but if we drink less water than it affects our body and causes that type of problems. - simmi - 10 years ago

It depends on many factors like your health , your activity quotient , the place of your living . Everyday day we  lose water through our  breath, perspiration, urine and bowel movements. So in order to replenish our water stock   We should drink water and water containing foods. 
On the whole  3 liters of water for men and 2.2 liters for women is recommended.

Don’t count the glass and try to complete a predetermined quantity. Just drink sufficient water whenever you feel thirst; and it is the sufficiency that counts.

I think it depends on the daily activity of a person, a physically hard worker person needs 15 - 16 glass of water per day, and a person sitting in his office needs 10 -12 glass per day.

Drink Maximum 3 litres or  atleast 1.5 litres a day for a good health. I think you know the importance of water  very well so only you ask this question. It is a summer season and there is  a chance to dehydration which cause Urinary Tract Infections also especially for women.  Drink hot water as much as possible to enhance your health as like a wealth. It gives you glowing skin, good blood circulation, and no eye problems.

A person who is living on place which is too much cold not like to drink single glass of water and person who is living is desert area required to drink water after every 30 minutes.
