Water Intake Calculator: limits and things worth knowing
- The '8 glasses a day' rule has no clear scientific origin and is not based on measured requirement. Needs vary with body size, activity, climate and diet.
- Roughly 20-30% of fluid intake comes from food, particularly fruit and vegetables, so total requirement is not the same as the volume you must drink.
- Tea and coffee count towards fluid intake. Their diuretic effect at normal consumption is far smaller than the fluid they contain.
- Thirst is a reliable guide for most healthy people. Urine colour is a practical check — pale straw is the usual target.
- Drinking far in excess of need can cause hyponatraemia, which is rare but genuinely dangerous. General information only, not medical advice.
Is it private and secure?
Your privacy is built in. Water Intake Calculator runs completely on your device, so whatever you enter stays in your browser and is never transmitted, logged or stored on any server.
Network activity: none. Nothing is sent and nothing is fetched. This tool makes no network request at all once the page has loaded — which is why it keeps working if your connection drops.
You do not have to take that on trust — our privacy proof page publishes the Content-Security-Policy that enforces it, lists every third party it permits, and shows how to verify the whole claim yourself.
