I am very seldom thirsty. I want the truth to be "Drink water whenever you want, no matter how seldom. That's perfectly normal."
Isn't there a research that says exactly this?

If there is, I am willing to say

"I have the gravest doubts upon the subject. But I intend to crush them. This is not the moment for German scepticism." (Oscar Wilde, The Importance of being Earnest)

and live on in peace

A team of researchers in America have reviewed every study into water consumption they can lay their hands on and discovered that not a single one recommends drinking eight glasses of water a day</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/news/health/225175/the-great-water-myth.html">
Dr Dan Negoianu and Dr Stanley Goldfarb, of the University of Pennsylvania, also couldn't find any evidence that drinking more water improves skin tone or the productivity of any of the body's organs. Nor is it likely to help fight weight gain, as the claim that drinking more water makes you feel full remains 'inconclusive', according to their research</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.marieclaire.co.uk/news/health/225175/the-great-water-myth.html"><DIV>
In fact, the only health benefit they found was that drinking more water may help those who suffer from headaches, although again only one small study appeared to substantiate this claim and the results of it were not overwhelmingly conclusive.
