    Do you need to drink that much for some kind of medical condition? I took a medication for a few years that required me to stay super hydrated, but that's not typical. Otherwise, no need to drink a gallon. Just drink to your level of thirst and/or your urine is a pale yellow or clear color.

    Enough to stay hydrated. The color of your urine will tell you if you're hydrated. light straw color means hydrated. clear means overhydrated. 8x 8oz glasses per day is a reasonable starting point. Also, other fluids as well as food contributes to hydration.
