Please use these estimates when purchasing bottled water. Your consumption may increase depending on physical activity, if you cook frequently with Rain Fresh® Water, and if you provide Rain Fresh® for your pets and houseplants.
Most people have heard that we should drink eight 8 oz glasses of water a day. We find this formula needs to be adjusted based on the percentage of water in your body (typically 55%-70%). This is determined to a large extent by your percentage of body fat; therefore, each individual's weight should be taken into account to ensure proper hydration. Please use the following formula to figure your minimum daily consumption.
HOW MUCH WATER SHOULD YOU DRINK DAILY? *
- Step 1: Take your weight in pounds.
- Step 2: Divide it by 2 (this gives your daily consumption in ounces).
- Step 3: Convert this to cups by dividing by 8.
- Step 4: Drink this amount daily.
* Note: This is the minimum amount you should drink daily. Depending on your activity level you may need to drink more. As we do not have a "storage tank" in our bodies we need to be drinking this water throughout the day.
