I drink as much water as I want, depending on thirst. I see no reason to make it any more complicated. As for other beverages, I will drink almond milk (which I sometimes make myself), coconut water (simply because I like the taste, it has no magical properties), and a few non-caffeinated teas like ginger or peppermint. If I wanted other drinks, I would have them. But, I don't like alcohol, milk, sodas, etc. That wasn't always the case.

I drink approximately a gallon a day when I remember. Feel much better when I do. I have one of those really large water jugs that I carry all over the place with me. That's just to make sure I drink that much.

I drink water and tea - rarely anything else.

I have about 16oz of fresh pressed juice every morning, about 16oz of water with my tinctures every day, about 4oz of coconut water, 24-48 oz of water on tops of all of that, and herbal tea as I want.

So about 60-84oz of fluid a day, plus tea if I drink any? Not as bad as I thought, but I feel like I should be drinking more.

Edit: I forgot about Alkaseltzer + lemon. That bumps me up about 12 more oz.

I should monitor my intake, because I did wash out too many of my electrolytes back in 2015, but I'm like The Dude in that I just drink water when I feel like it.

It seems like a lot, but not enough, at the same time. My body's holding onto a portion of it, for whatever reason.

I'm not edematous anywhere, so I don't know (my brain, perhaps). All that stool that refuses to move, probably.

I had about five 16 oz. bottles of water at school, a couple more glasses about equal to that in between tinctures, plus what I've had just for in between. A gallon, at least. More.

As for what, I can't remember the last time I drank anything that wasn't water. I mean, there's water in most drinks, right? But, I mean... yeah, just plain water, unless it's mixed with a tincture/supplement.

Teas are an option, but I don't bother, typically. I'd do vegetable juices, if I could press them myself, but a good juicer hasn't been in the budget. Coconut water, I've seen a lot, but haven't cared to try. I'm sure it has its benefits.

I'm thirsty right now.
