💡 Good to know: The "8 glasses a day" rule has little scientific basis; a lot of your water also comes from the food you eat.

Inputs

Frequently asked

Does coffee or food count?

Foods and other drinks do contribute to hydration; this figure is a total-fluid guide, not water-from-the-tap only.

How big is a 'cup' here?

It converts liters to US cups (about 4.23 cups per liter), so a cup is roughly 237 ml.
