Enter your body weight, daily exercise, and climate, and this calculator estimates how much water you should drink per day — shown in liters, US fluid ounces, and 8-oz glasses.

Frequently asked questions
A widely used baseline is about 30–35 ml per kilogram of body weight per day (roughly half an ounce to two-thirds of an ounce per pound) — around 2.3 L for a 70 kg (154 lb) adult. Add roughly 350 ml (12 oz) per 30 minutes of exercise, and more in hot weather. This calculator applies those rules to your numbers.
No — it's an estimate from general guidelines, not medical advice. Real needs vary with health conditions, pregnancy or breastfeeding, medications, altitude, and diet (food typically covers about 20% of fluid intake). Thirst and pale-yellow urine are good practical checks; ask a doctor about your specific needs.
