Water: How much should you drink every day?

Thanks for the very useful information, Geetha.
I am advising my children to do the same as I am drinking atleast 6 cups of water a day.

Dear Geetha,
I just want to share my experience.
I went to a dietician in Dec last, to seek her help to knock off a few kilos.
She first advised that minimum1.5-2 litres of water must be consumed everyday, to help dieting. Minimum 500 ml, if not a little more, is a must as soon as you wake up, before coffee. The middle cup of water is mixed woth lime juice - no honey, note.
I literally struggled to drink so much of water, to start with. But I consciouly forced that habit on myself. Now, I am able to drink minimum 2 lts everyday with ease. I strongly feel, it helps us keep our weight under control.
If I fail to drink plenty of water for 2-3 days, I definitely see a marginal increase in my weight. So, I "rush back" to my water-drinking habit !
Love,
Chithra.
