Optimal Homeostasis: Normal cellular hydration. Your kidneys clear baseline solute loads with standard ADH regulation.
24-Hour Fluid Balance Breakdown
Total Intake (Drinks + Food + Metabolic ~300ml)2,250 ml
Total Loss (Respiration + Skin + Sweat + GI)800 ml
Required Renal Excretion (Free Water Clearance)1,450 ml
Net Fluid Retention0 ml (Balanced)

Physiological note based on WSJ reporting: Kidneys filter up to ~800–1000 ml/hr. Excess water volume beyond osmotic demand triggers immediate bladder clearance without systemic cellular or skin benefit.
