Drinking eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day is a recommendation you’ve heard often enough, but when you’re losing more water by sweating, you’ll need to supplement that. Remember that it’s more about the fluid intake, as long as you’re not drinking something that dehydrates you, like coffee or alcohol.
Many celebrities who drink a lot of water take the rule very seriously, and some even drink more water than that, and take great care when it comes to the quality of water. Check out some of the best hydrated celebrities and find out more about their drinking habits.
