How is it Calculated?
Our calculator provides an estimated daily fluid recommendation that includes drinking water and water provided from all other beverages. Note that it does not account for additional water needs that may result from excessive water losses due to hot or humid climates or increased physical activity.
Calculated daily fluid goals are based on dietary reference values furnished by the National Academy of Medicine. While no exact requirement for water has been specified, a recommended intake level for total daily water (all beverages and food included) has been established. This guideline—the Adequate Intake (AI) level—is based on median intakes of generally healthy individuals who are adequately hydrated in temperate climates; individuals can be adequately hydrated at levels below as well as above the AI. Our calculator has adjusted the AI for water to reflect only the estimated 80% of total water intake that comes from drinking water and beverage, omitting the roughly 20% of water provided by moisture in foods. Further, we have provided a range of daily fluid intake, equal to +/- 8 ounces of the AI calculated at 80%.

Exercise Considerations
Prolonged physical activity and heat exposure will increase water loss, and therefore, may increase daily fluid needs. Your calculated daily fluid estimate will NOT account for these increases.
