can anyone tell me the mmls size of the cups of water it recommends we drink daily.Most days I do drink plenty of liquids just wondered if I could be more accurate for logging instead of guessing the cup size.

  • You should drink 8 cups or more a day. A cup is equal to 8 ounces. Therefore, you should be drinking at least 64 ounces a day.

    Drink about 2L a day and you'll be fine. 8oz is around 235 ml.
  • A pint glass is 16 oz and most regular coffee mugs are 12 oz. If you have a favorite glass or cup fill it with water and dump into a measuring cup to get an accuate measurement.

    Unless you are in the U.K., a pint glass = 20 fluid ounces.
