Câtă apă ar trebui să bei zilnic? Necesarul diferă în funcție de vârstă, sex și activitatea fizică • Newsweek România

Daily water intake varies based on age, sex, physical activity, and environmental factors. The European Food Safety Authority suggests approximately 2 liters for women and 2.5 liters for men. Children and adolescents have different hydration needs, which increase with age and activity level. It's important to consider that hydration comes from both beverages and food. Signs of dehydration include dry mouth, dark urine, and fatigue. While the common guideline of eight glasses a day is easy to remember, individual needs can differ significantly. Overhydration can also be harmful, so it's best to drink regularly and adjust intake based on activity and climate.
