There are many other ways the body loses water, from some as obvious as sweating to others not so obvious as breathing. We lose water all the time. Therefore it is important that we drink around eight glasses of water every day.

    @ brat: that bit about being seated while drinking water has no scientific basis. All non-Pakistani cricketers (except Hashim Amla of South Africa) drink water while standing and they’re healthy. Finally, this may sound strange, but a Muslim is supposed to drink Zam Zam water while standing.

    Mohammad, sometimes you really get it right, little buddy. I drink ‘way too much coffee; I’m going to go get some water, and try to make a habit of it. Thanks for the reminder.

    Fruit juice is good for health as it provides nutrients and replenishes water in the body, but it is not a substitute for water. A person who drinks lots of fruit juice can do with less than eight glasses. Coffee and tea diminish water from the body due to their caffeine content.

    @ Yusha:Does drinking eight glasses of water include tea, coffee, fruit juices and other liquids?
