how much water is to much?

Hello!! So ive decided to up my water intake.  I have a 20floz water bottle, and it has a tracker on it on how many bottles you drink up to 6. Is 120 floz of water to much in one day?

Take your weight then divide by 2. That is the min. number of oz. you need of water.

120 ounces is not too much water.  Everyone in the nation should drink that much water rather than some of the other choices out there.

You only have to drink enough to stay hydrated.  Typically, it's recommended that you drink 8 - 8 oz glasses of water/day, but doctors are now saying that's not necessary.  Remember that the food you eat, also contains water, plus other beverages count toward your intake.

Drink the amount that you're comfortable with.
