How the Water Intake Calculator works

Estimate daily water intake with a simple weight and exercise heuristic. Enter the requested values in the tool above, select Calculate, and review both the main result and its breakdown.

Formula used

Base estimate = 35 mL × body weight in kg, plus 350 mL per 30 exercise minutes and the selected climate adjustment.

Worked example

Needs vary with health, pregnancy, food, medication and climate; too much water can also be harmful.

Practical uses

  • Set a general hydration reminder
  • Adjust for exercise
  • Discuss special needs with a clinician

Assumptions and limits

Health results are screening estimates, not a diagnosis. Individual needs and clinical circumstances can differ. For reproducibility, record the inputs and assumptions used when sharing a result.
