Do you need the recommended 8 cups a day? This is a good guideline; however, the amount of water you require depends on a number of factors, including your activity level, the climate you live in, your diet, and your size. A good gauge that indicates if you are drinking enough water is the color of your urine. It should be nearly colorless (unless you are eliminating excess water-soluble vitamins, especially riboflavin--or food coloring, and if you are consuming food coloring, then, well, we need to talk). If your urine is medium to dark yellow, orange, or, heaven-forbid, brown you likely need to drink more water.
