I drink loose leaf and bag tea, at least 2-3 cups a day - would this count towards my daily water count?

    i've seen a lot of different advice on this, but in my mind any water-based drink counts as water. i log my coffee and crystal lite-flavored water all under "water". so yes, as far as i'm concerned, tea would also count.

    i've seen some people try to argue that because there's other things in the water, like the tea or coffee compounds, then somehow it's no longer water. i can't wrap my brain around that, because the water is still doing the job it was meant to, which is hydrate.

    what i DON'T count as water would be sodas, milks, energy drinks, coconut waters, or dairy-based drinks. other than that, if it started as water and all you did was add a flavoring agent, then yes it's ok to log as water.

    The short answer is yes, it counts.

    For that matter, everything you eat that contains liquid contributes to your overall hydration needs.

    I don't know that I would count tea or coffee as water because they are both diuretics.

    I'm not completely sure but in the past I've heard that caffeine free or decaffeinated tea or coffee counts as water but not caffeined. Thats what WW says anyway.

    I count my green tea. I drink about 4 cups of it a day. I do not count my 1 cup of coffee or other drinks I might have. I don't drink much besides tea, coffee and plain water anyways. If I happen to have an energy drink, I don't count it. Same with a lemonade, etc.

    Ummm ... no they aren't. Both have a net hydrating impact on the human body.

    If it's not straight water, I don't count it in my water count. I add it to my food counts. Anything besides water, processes as food in your body (even zero calorie drinks) so it all goes into food counts.

    Yes, I drink pretty much only unsweet iced tea and haven't died of dehydration yet.

    Although tea and coffee are SLIGHTLY diuretic the diuretic effect is FAR MORE THAN COMPENSATED FOR because they contain so much water.

    Even Beer and drinks like Gin and Tonic count, as does Coke and other soft drinks (though the non diet versions contain far too much sugar and alcohol isn't a good form of nutrition).

    Neat spirits don't count as they don't contain as much water in proportion to the alcohol.

    The scientific study that concluded you should drink 6-8 glasses of water a day DIDN'T. It said your body needs 6-8 glasses of water a day BUT YOU GET MOST OF THAT FROM FRUIT AND VEGETABLES. Drinks manufacturers often quoted the first part until it became "common knowledge" and ignore the second part.

    You really only need to drink when you are thirsty. Your body needs a certain amount of water to function, if it doesn't get enough you will have thirst. If you drink more than you need your kidneys will just work overtime to flush it out.

    I'm not sure what that means? The implication is that the water from a slice of watermelon, for example, isn't used by the body as water.

    Outside of needing to monitor one's water intake for medical reasons, I don't really see the point of counting anyway. People receive adequate hydration from drinking when they're thirsty.

    It's still primarily water once tea is steeped in it.

    It counts. but I have found I have clearer skin when I get in 32 oz. of water without anything in it every day. I still drink a lot of Ice tea.

    I count my tea. However, for reasons unknown to me, I don't count my coffee. I know, odd. I agree with prior statements, just soaking a tea bag in your water does not remove its hydrating qualities.

    This is why many nutritionist say no...only water counts as water. A nutritionist I once went to told me for every cup of coffee I drank, I needed two extra glasses of water.

    My take - you drink to stay hydrated. There is no magic in 8 glasses of water - in fact many people need far more than that if they exercise a lot. Listen to your body, drink what you want, and make adjustments along the way!

    Yes it counts. Just make sure you log any additives like sugar or milk.
