حساب كمية الماء اليومية
Calculate your recommended daily water intake based on body weight and activity level. Supports metric and imperial.
Hydration is one of the most underestimated pillars of human health, yet most people have no idea how much water they actually need. The old advice to "drink eight glasses a day" is a blunt oversimplification that ignores body weight, activity level, climate and individual physiology. Our daily water intake calculator uses a weight-based formula adjusted for activity level, providing a far more personalised — and physiologically accurate — recommendation than any blanket rule ever could.
Water intake is intimately connected to overall body composition and weight management. Proper hydration boosts metabolic rate, reduces false hunger signals and supports kidney function. If you are on a health journey, we strongly recommend also using our BMI Calculator and Calorie Calculator to build a complete, data-driven picture of your nutritional needs.
⚕️ Please note: The figure provided is a scientifically-based general estimate. Individual hydration needs can vary significantly based on health conditions, medications and climate. If you have kidney, heart or other chronic conditions, please consult your doctor or a qualified healthcare professional for personalised advice.
How much water should you drink per day?
The general formula endorsed by most health organisations is 30–35 ml of water per kilogram of body weight per day. A 70 kg adult therefore needs approximately 2.1–2.5 litres daily under normal conditions. However, this baseline increases significantly with physical activity (add ~500 ml per hour of moderate exercise), hot climate (+500 ml), pregnancy (+300 ml) and breastfeeding (+700 ml). The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommends 2 litres total fluid intake for women and 2.5 litres for men, including water from food (which accounts for roughly 20% of daily intake).
What happens when you do not drink enough water?
Even mild dehydration of just 1–2% body water loss measurably impairs cognitive performance, short-term memory and physical endurance. At 3–4% loss, headaches, dizziness and significant fatigue occur. Chronic mild dehydration is linked to higher risk of kidney stones, urinary tract infections and constipation. Proper hydration also supports skin health, joint lubrication and regulation of body temperature.
