Some experts think that in order to be healthy you should drink 8 glasses of water. Others think it's a myth. What do you think?

Yes, you should. You need to drink 8 glasses of water everyday in order to stay healthy and keep your body in good shape. If you drink less than that, you might become slightly dehydrated, and your body wouldn't have enough water it needs to function properly.

I work in Iraq, you have to drink as much water as you can stand. I drink more than 8 glasses a day and am healthier for it.

8 glasses of water is actually very good for you. It hydrates your body as well as helping your diet. Drinking water helps to make you feel full and drinking that much means you will feel full more often and not eat as much. The water is also good to flush all the toxins in your body out. More people should take up this habit and the U.S. Would not be so consumed by obesity.

This is a great addition to eating right and exercising. Drinking this much water per day also cleans out your digestive system. It is recommended by almost every health professional.

I have 8 glasses a day (usually to make up for my dehydration from 2 bottles of wine for breakfast lol)

Yeah that would be good. It makes your skin clearer, more moist and radiant. It helps get rid of toxins in your body, etc. Drinking around that amount is good.

No,
you have water in foods, such a fruits which are mostly water,
it does not have to be water, but some form of liquid.

Drinking too much water can be dangerous, it can flush your body of vital nutirtions.

No. This does not take into account water from food.

Recent medical studies stated that it is not recommended to drink as much as 8 glasses of water per day. 55% of the required amount of water is supplied by the food & drinks we eat. So, three to four glasses of water would be enough, per day.
