How Much Water Do You Need In A Day?

Experts recommend drinking half your body weight in ounces of water to keep your body healthy. If you weigh 150 pounds, you need to drink 75 ounces of water. When you workout, you need to drink a minimum of 20 additional ounces of water, so that would increase the water to 95 ounces for the 150 pound person. If the weather is hot, you live at high altitudes, or you are sick, you need to increase your water intake even more for optimal health.
