    My Mom was a nurse in the 1950's. When I was a child/ teen in the 1970's and 80's, she would always make a comment about drinking too much water (more than two glasses at a time), as she said it wasn't healthy to gulp down water as we could be 'waterlogged'. Although, she never said that my Dad drinking 4 cups of coffee at breakfast, or my brother drinking 3 bottles of beer in one sitting, was equally as dangerous.

    So even though Water is Good for You, I guess there is such a thing as too much Water

      Oh yea they kept me in the ER wouldn’t let me leave because my sodium levels were too low from drinking too much water.. I didn’t even go to the ER for a kidney issue. But they said my sodium levels were so low dangerously low that I could have seizures. They took my water bottle away from me lol
      I am a runner and it’s really hot in Florida so I’m drinking a lot of water.. 🏃‍♀

      Why are you capitalizing "water" and "good" and "you".

      @@kenfaganjr.7357 I can assure you thats absolutely not true. So say you weigh 140 pounds 10% of 140 pounds is 14. 140 pound person is not getting enough water only drinking 14 ounces that’s not even 2 cups of water a day.

    HUH? Women: 11.5 glasses of water... but how many ounces is that glass? Could be 4 oz. or could be 12 oz. Plus 400 mg of coffee is less than an ounce which makes no sense.

      8 oz.

      8oz=cup (she said glasses or cups). And the 400mg is caffeine, not coffee. Caffeine can also be found in some teas, some sodas, chocolate, etc. They just used coffee as an example with 400mg of caffeine being about 4-5 cups of water. Depending on what you are eating or drinking with caffeine, the levels will be different.
