How much is too much of drinking water?
vtrader 06 Sep 2015
I've noticed that when I drink around 2.5L of water I fill energy wise better compared to drinking less.
Then I read in heatly and fitness sites that these people drink a lot more, something like 2 gallons, 5-9L a day.
The biggest problem of drinking just 2.5L is the inconvience of going to pee every 30-60 minutes, can't imagine doing that with 5-9L.
Sometimes I need to travel using public transport on short notice, I can't plan my toliet breaks.
Does the need to pee get less as the body gets use to drinking large amounts of water?
What are you experiences of drinking many liters a day?
how much can the kidney take in a period of time?

People who drink huge amounts of water are probably doing it because they're sweating a lot. It's unlikely that normal sedentary people would need 5-9 liters.

Don’t really keep track but I’d estimate 100 onces per day. I think it helps me flush toxins from working in a major city.
