"Teas, coffe, sodas, etc do not count as water sources, they actually dehydrate you. "

Wrong.

Caffeinated drinks are diuretic which means that it causes your body to loose water, because it takes more water for your system to process it through the kidneys. So it hydrates you but also dehydrates you because it takes more water for your kidney to process it. You have to drink a lot of it to dehydrate you, but it still not the best source for water. Also sugar slows down hydration.

Sometimes it over estimates, sometimes under estimates, but HRM is always the best way to go!

Livestrong is a TERRIBLE site to use to "prove" anything! So much misinformation in there. Mayo Clinic, on the other hand, is well respected. Know your sources.
