An absolutely fundamental element for practically every function of our organism, the molecule composed of hydrogen and oxygen which forms the compound known as waterfall it has naturally been part of life on our planet since long before the appearance of the human species. Drinking correctly and in good quantities means maintaining a good state of health, as has always been evident, but science, while confirming all this, does not always appear clear, so understanding how many liters of water you need to drink per day is essentially quite complex.
In reality there is an “average” which however is not identical for everyone, a condition which makes it necessary to understand the needs in depth.
But ultimately, how many liters of water should we drink a day?
How many liters of water should you drink per day? Here are the recommended doses
Our body absolutely cannot do without drinking water, a condition that appears to be fundamentally “explained” already by the constitution of the human body, which is made up of approximately 65% of this element. Every form of structure and mechanics of the human body occurs in an environment that is formed by it or uses it, just think of the elimination of waste, digestion but also the regulation of body temperature which occurs with sweat.
In general we follow the recommended dose of 2 liters of water per day, which is a consistent “average”, as it is considered suitable for almost everyone, in reality a lot depends on the lifestyle and condition, for example the need to drink it increases with increasing age, up to adulthood, while with advancing old age it “decreases” slightly, furthermore the requirement increases in conditions of overweight and obesity in addition to the presence of physical activity, and men need a little more water per day than women, generally adult men should drink about 2.4 liters of water per day, about a dozen medium glasses while women around 2, about ten glasses a day .
In pre-adolescence an average is 1.5 and 1.7 L per day, respectively for females and males, and if dehydration leads to various physical problems, even exceeding the amount of water can cause problems, as it develops various disorders such as overhydration that is, an excessive presence of water in the body which can be worsening for some organs in particular such as the kidneys.
Those who do a lot of physical activity can even see their needs doubled, even if in this case they are mainly professionals linked to relevant sporting activities.
