Why do our bodies not get thirsty enough to drink the “recommended” amount of water?

950 views

I keep seeing these things about how people should drink 2 liters a day or 3 liters or whatever but if i had to estimate i think i drink about 0.5 to 1 liter a day, i just drink when i feel thirsty and that’s the amount i need to drink in a day to not feel thirsty…

If we only eat when we’re hungry why do we have to drink when we’re not thirsty?

Those recommendations are based on total water consumption, not just drinking water. If your diet has other components than Jacob’s cream crackers, you are consuming significant amounts of water through the food you eat.
