“Daily Water Requirements: Drink 50-75% of your body weight in ounces. Sedentary People: 50% and Active People 75%.” - NaturoDoc
Not ingesting enough fluids on a daily bases affects every aspect of human physiology and prevents your body from operating at its fullest potential. Improper hydration impairs overall mental and physical health and performance, quality of life, weight struggles and chronic pain—just to name a few.
How To Calculate Your Recommended Daily Intake (RDA) of Water
Sample:
Weight: 150lbs
Activity Level: Active
Climate: Canada
150lbs x 75% = 112.5oz
Plus additional amounts depending:
Add 16oz for dryness of climate in a day
Add 16oz for strenuous activity in a day

Tip!
Dividing your total RDA by the number of hours in a day that you are awake makes it easier to monitor your daily intake of water by drinking a certain amount every hour.
