    Well. I knew alcohol is 'technically' a poison and being drunk is the effects of the poison. I'm not convinced that coffee is toxic though. Maybe because I like it too much :smiley:

    From Wikipedia: "Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant. It is the world's most widely consumed psychoactive drug....." If that's not a toxin...

    I drink a lot of water by keeping a water bottle on me at all times and keeping it filled. It's easy to drink when you've always got a lot of water with you and don't have to get up every few minutes to refill a small glass.

    This article repeats a lot of stuff that has been thoroughly debunked. Here's a more accurate article on water. http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/healthy-drinks/

    Basically, if your urine is straw-colored or pale yellow you are sufficiently hydrated. If your urine is bright or dark yellow, you need to get more water whether that be from drinking water, coffee, tea, or eating foods that contain a lot of water.
