Frequently asked questions

Does all fluid count?
Yes. Water, other drinks and the water in food all contribute. The target here is a general guide for total intake, not water alone.
Can you drink too much water?
Rarely, but yes — drinking far more than you need can dilute your blood sodium. Let thirst and urine color guide you, and don’t force large amounts.
Is this medical advice?
No. These calculators are for general information and education only. They are not a diagnosis or a substitute for professional care — talk to a doctor or qualified clinician about your health.
