👉 Daily fluid intake refers to the amount of water and other hydrating beverages consumed by an individual over a 24-hour period. This includes water from drinks like coffee, tea, and soda, as well as fluids from foods with high water content such as fruits and vegetables. Adequate daily fluid intake is crucial for maintaining proper bodily functions, including regulating body temperature, aiding digestion, transporting nutrients and oxygen throughout the body, and flushing out waste products. Most adults are advised to consume about 2.7 liters (or 91 ounces) of fluids daily, though this can vary based on factors like age, sex, activity level, and climate. Ensuring sufficient hydration helps prevent dehydration, which can lead to fatigue, headaches, and in severe cases, more serious health issues.
