No. Your body doesn't need a gallon of water every other second. Excess fluids are pointless because your body just pees it out, because it can't process it.

Not to mention too much water can kill you.

People think if you're not peeing 2 times per hour, you're unhealthy. I get CBC + other labs blood work done weekly and I'm perfectly hydrated.

Not to mention if you're going on a long road trip, it's okay to consume less fluids. You won't die.
