    There's nothing magical about 8 glasses, it doesn't have to be water, and yes it is possible to overdose on water - even fatally.

    Drinking 80-90 ounces of water per day helps keep me from putting other things in my mouth, like soda....

    Thanks, I wasn't sure because I am sure I have had 2 gallons in a day, not normally but I'm sure I've done it when drinking water to try and keep from raiding the office candy dish because I was hungry. I am also on meds that make me very thirsty and I always try to have water nearby (and a bathroom).

    Thanks again,
