You don't actually need 8-10 glasses of water a day. That's a myth.
Also lmao @ "processed foods". Everything is "processed", unless you're eating raw vegetables (which aren't necessarily better than cooked, btw).
Maybe if you're not outdoors much and live a airconditioned sedentary lifestyle.
Which studies say that you should drink 8 glasses?
I'm not the one making the claim. If you would like to provide information for your claim we can discuss it.
Dieticians recommend drinking as much water as you think your body needs (if you feel thirsty, drink water) - people in environments with less sweating will need less water than those in environments with high sweating, not to mention dietary sources of water.
I agree with that statement. <3
