A small study from Utahresearchers, which sought tobet ter analyze theissue, fails to settle the debate over whether a person shoulddrink at least eight, 8-ounceglasses of water daily, “Whenthe opponents of any:-eight,’ as a rule, say there is noevidence,thatis still correct,” said HeinzValtin, a New Hampshire physiologist who was shown theearly drafts of research by Wayne Askew andhis graduate stu- dents at the University of Utah. Valtin is the professor emeritus at Dartmouth Medical School who shook upwater- bottle-obsessed America when hereported in August there wasno researchproving eight: by-eight wasa health necessi- ty. He traced the recommenda: tion to a 1945 National Research Council study that until recently had gone unchallenged. Valtin said the U, study, whichholds upeight-by-eight as a valid guideline, is too flawedto provethevalidityof the aging H20 advice.

Askew interpreted the findings to mean the eight by-eight guideline is a good “rule of thumb,”butdifferent activity levels and body sizes makewater-drinking rules hard to formalize.
