  • If you are working outside during a heat wave, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends drinking 8 ounces (1 cup) of water every 15 to 20 minutes during work. Drinking water both before and after work can help prevent dehydration.

The article from CNET discusses the importance of hydration, debunking myths and providing factual insights on how much water one should drink daily. It highlights that while the common advice is to drink eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day, individual needs can vary based on factors like body size, activity level, and climate. The article explains that hydration isn't just about water intake; foods like fruits and vegetables also contribute significantly to daily fluid needs. It also covers signs of dehydration, the role of electrolytes, and how overhydration can be harmful.
