Answer 1

I'm no expert but I've heard at least 80 oz a day Water is the best thing to drink Juices aren't really that good too much sugar fruit should be eaten whole.

Answer 2

It's fine to drink that much water. The more water the better! 9 cups a day is not too much, you're supposed to drink at LEAST 8 a day. =) I think you're doing fine. If you are looking for other drink options try iced tea (no sugar), green tea, Crystal Light (which is pretty much flavor to water, so I guess not what you want lol), Low Fat or Fat Free Milk, 100% Fruit Juice (just don't drink too much of it), V8 is good, some of the Sobe Drinks are good... look for low cal, low sugar options. There's a lot out there. Stay away from sugary drinks, "fake" tea like Nestle Lemon, 10% Fruit Drinks, Kool Aid, Soda, etc and you're fine!

Answer 3

Depends on how big you are.  Don't ever go by the "8 glasses a day" or "so many ounces a day" rule, because it completely depends on your size.  I'm 105 pounds, and my doctor told me 4 (8 oz) glasses a day.

Answer 4

very health

Answer 5

The experts say 8 glasses a day
