Water Intake Calculator

How much water you should drink per day, in oz, ml, and litres.

Daily water target

Millilitres
US fluid oz
8-oz cups
500ml bottles
Baseline: ~35 ml per kg of body weight. Add ~350–750 ml for exercise (per session). Multiply by 1.15× for hot climates. These are general targets — individual needs vary; thirst is also a good signal.

What this calculates

Adult hydration roughly scales with body mass (~35 ml/kg as a starting point), adjusted upward for exercise sweat loss and hot climates. Some of this water comes from food (typically ~20%), so a fully sedentary 70 kg adult needs ~1.9 L of drinks on top of meals.
