| Exercise (โ350 ml per 30 min) | โ |
| Climate adjustment | โ |
| Total target | โ |
This total includes all fluids, not just plain water โ around 20% of daily water typically comes from food. Coffee and tea count too. Listen to your thirst and check that your urine is pale straw-colored.
Start the day with a glass
Drinking water when you wake up rehydrates you after sleep and helps you hit your target without noticing.
Keep a bottle in sight
A refillable bottle on your desk is a constant nudge. Sip steadily rather than gulping large amounts at once.
Estimate only โ not medical advice. Individual needs vary with health conditions, medications, pregnancy and altitude. If you have kidney, heart or fluid-restriction concerns, follow your doctor's guidance.
