Each year, people drink more than 4 trillion cubic meters of fresh water. You’ve probably heard that you, alone, need to drink 8 cups of water per day for all the processes inside your body to function well. However, the number is not entirely correct, and in this article, we’ll explain how things actually stand.
We at Bright Side want to share the formula with you. It’ll help you identify how much water you should drink per day.
How the myth about the standard “8 glasses of water a day” came to be
All of our organs consist of water — the heart and brain are 73% water while the lungs are 83% water, for example. The idea that a person has to drink 8 glasses of water per day to keep those organs and the entire body hydrated is quite popular. However, these 8 glasses we hear about so often are not a rule but a mid-range suggestion. It likely became popular because it seems to be a golden middle for everyone. In fact, your body may need more or less water.
Factors that influence the amount of water you need
Sex and age: At different ages, our body contains a different amount of water itself. Thus, it needs a different amount of it to stay hydrated. Different sexes also contain different amounts of water in the body.
At different ages, our body contains a different amount of water itself. Thus, it needs a different amount of it to stay hydrated. Different sexes also contain different amounts of water in the body. Weight : Studies say that adults with a higher body mass index are more likely to stay dehydrated. Also, besides keeping you adequately hydrated, water also may help you to lose weight.
: Studies say that adults with a higher body mass index are more likely to stay dehydrated. Also, besides keeping you adequately hydrated, water also may help you to lose weight. Environment: If you live in hot weather, you obviously need more water; and if you live near the sea or ocean, where humidity is higher, your organism would require less of it.
If you live in hot weather, you obviously need more water; and if you live near the sea or ocean, where humidity is higher, your organism would require less of it. Exercises: If you are an athlete or simply exercise regularly, you’ll sweat more than a person who has a stationary occupation. Thus, you have to substitute the fluid you lose. Also, we can’t forget about special conditions, such as: Pregnancy and breastfeeding: During pregnancy, studies suggest that women should drink more water than usual.
During pregnancy, studies suggest that women should drink more water than usual. Overall health condition: Things like a fever or diarrhea make the body lose water faster than usual. It’s important to drink water to prevent dehydration.
How to calculate the amount of water you need
There’s a formula that will help you to calculate the amount of water your body needs: The amount of water in liters you need to drink per day is equal to your weight in kilograms multiplied by 0.033. Once you calculate the amount, you can make a schedule that will help you to remember to drink as much water as you need. For example, it’s better to start your day with a glass or 2 of water on an empty stomach. Among other things, water in the morning increases your energy and speeds up your metabolism; thus, it will help you to stay well and cheerful all day long. Note: As it was mentioned above, different conditions may influence this data, so it’s important to listen to what your body is telling you.
Products that can substitute water
Although experts suggest drinking pure water in order to get all the fluids you need, some people cannot drink that much water during the day. People can substitute a part of their water intake with different fruits and vegetables that contain a lot of water. Watermelon, oranges, and cucumbers are made of more than 80% water. And different soups and drinks, like coffee or tea, may also replace several cups of water.

When you’re a farmer, you’re prepared for pretty much anything. Anything but a green dog. Cristian Mallocci, a sheep farmer from Italy, could not believe his eyes. Spelacchia, one of his 8 dogs, gave birth to an unexpected offspring — a puppy with green fur.
Here at Bright Side we would like to tell you the story of this outstanding puppy that was born green, so let’s take a closer look!
The tiny pooch was immediately named Pistachio.
A few years ago, the Italian sheep farmer Cristian Mallocci had no idea he would be on the world news. At his farm on the Mediterranean island of Sardinia, one of his 8 dogs, Spelacchia, gave birth to a litter of 5 puppies. Pistachio’s 4 brothers and sisters all had white fur, the same color as their mother. But this phenomenal pooch had green fur.
It’s unusual for a dog to be born with green fur.
This story is rare, but easily explained. It’s assumed that it happens when puppies with pale fur have contact with a green pigment called biliverdin, while in their mother’s womb. It’s the same substance that’s responsible for the green color in bruises.
Nonetheless, the green fur won’t last forever. Pistachio’s pigment is fading away day by day. According to Mallocci, his dog’s veterinarian explained that during the dog`s pregnancy, biliverdin, a substance contained in bile, blends into the amniotic fluid in the placenta. And it can result in staining a puppy with pale fur.
Though rare, it’s not unheard of for dogs to be born green.
In North Carolina, a white German Shepherd gave birth to a greenish pooch that was later named Hulk. In 2017, there was a similar case in Scotland with a golden retriever.
Mallocci shared that he’ll keep Pistachio on his farm and train him up to look after the sheep.
While the farmer said that Pistachio’s brothers and sisters will be given to new homes, the green pooch will stay on his farm and help his mother, Spelacchia, look after the herd. Mallocci shared that the unusual baby was an unexpected gift, and the green color is a sign of hope and luck, so he probably came to the world with a purpose to put a smile on people’s faces.
What’s the most unusual phenomenon you’ve seen in your own life? We’d be happy to see your photos in the comment section below.

Our brain likes to play tricks on us with the help of cognitive biases. For example, the Baader—Meinhof phenomenon is one of them, where it seems that recently learned information is chasing us and we start to perceive it as a “sign.” Taking into account all the existing biases, it’s not surprising that each of us has ever had difficulties with attentiveness. Thus, entering a room and forgetting what we wanted, speaking on the phone while thinking we’ve lost it, or going to work in slippers are one of a few examples that can happen to us.
We at Bright Side try to not miss anything, but still, some of the absent-minded things that the characters of our article experienced have taken place in our lives as well.
“I didn’t notice that the door to my bedroom wasn’t shut properly. At night I woke up to terrible sounds with the thought that a monster was swarming just under the ceiling. When I turned on the flashlight, I saw this!”
“I was about to pour myself a drink when I realized that 2 of my ice cubes were actually pizza rolls.”
“I do calligraphy. I misplaced the circled in character, which is part of a 300-word scroll that I almost finished after 5 days of work.”
“Just realized I went into the bank and the grocery store like this.”
“Accidentally pushed broil instead of bake.”
“Soaking my hands in milk to help cut through the chili oil from prepping jalapeños. No, I didn’t wear gloves. Yes, I’m a fool.”
“So I forgot to pack my gym shoes.”
“I guess this is why I shouldn’t put my coffee next to my paint water.”
“So my mother learned that you can boil an unopened can of condensed milk to make a caramel. The first few times it worked great, this last time she fell asleep while it was boiling.”
“Took the pill while half asleep and later saw this.”
“Just got home after a month out to find the water running in the bathtub.”
“That filled up fast!” -my wife
The woman put the mug upside down and the coffee is pouring onto its bottom.

Rinsing our dishes is a thing of the past. Yes, it can actually be better to put our dirty dishes directly into the machine, saving us time and money. Not only are some of our dishwashing habits outdated but they can also be pretty wrong, like how we fill our machines, our cleaning routines, and our water temperature levels.
Bright Side is sharing the most common errors with you and letting you know how you can change them today, with the added bonus of a dishwasher pod recipe.
1. Pre-washing the dishes
Pre-rinsing your dishes may not be the most effective way to clean them, especially if you have purchased a dishwasher in the last 5 years. They now come with a soil sensor, meaning that if it decides your dishes aren’t very dirty, it will use a shorter cycle. It also consumes much more water and electricity. In fact, a study says rinsing and washing our dishes can waste as much as 8-27 gallons of water.
2. The water heater is below 120ºF
Dishwashers that are only connected to a hot water pipe may not clean properly. The low water temperature entering the dishwasher can be a problem if you don’t have a built-in heat booster. To ensure that everything will be squeaky clean, make sure your water is getting hot enough.
3. Not running hot water from our taps
This can help your dishwasher run more efficiently by drawing hot water directly from the pipes for the first cycle. Something especially useful in the winter with cold pipes, for instance. The average dishwasher takes around 2 minutes to heat the water by 1 degree and most cycles need to be at 135ºF. If the water is only at 105ºF then your wash will take an extra 60 minutes!
4. Accidently blocking the sprayer
When we place large items across most of the rack they prevent the items above from getting cleaned properly. Instead, it can be better to wash the larger items by hand to make sure that your dishes are hygienically cleaned.
5. Not cleaning the rubber seals
The rubber collects bacteria over time from the dirty items in the dishwasher, which love humid spots. This can be tackled with an old toothbrush and soapy water every few months to prevent buildup.
6. Not using a rinse aid
If your load is coming out wet and with water spots, then a rinse aid could be the answer. It will reduce the surface tension of the water and stop droplets from forming and leaving stains. It also helps the items to dry quickly, so you are not left with a ton of drying to do.
7. Mixing soil levels
Some items may require a longer deeper clean, and others a shorter cycle. Similarly to laundry, group your dirty dishes according to their soil level for the best results! This may mean having to hand wash some items to prevent ruining the load.
Bonus: dishwasher pod recipe
For this recipe all that you need to do is: Mix dishwasher powder with water and vinegar until it forms a thick paste.
Leave it overnight to set in a mold and store it in an airtight container. This also means that you can control the amount of soap you add to the wash, preventing any unnecessary slimy residue.

Many of us don’t like certain parts of our bodies, are shy about wearing glasses, or don’t know how to create a cool look that is not vulgar. We should learn from these stars who can make anything look cool — like gloves, shoes, and even ribbons in their hair.
We at Bright Side have dug through photo archives and found the stylish details that celebrities used to spice up their looks. And in the bonus, you will see a character from a TV series that made the shoes of her favorite brand really popular.
1. Frida Kahlo — flower crown
When she was still alive, the artist was a fashion icon and in 2012, her photograph was on the cover of Vogue. The elements of her iconic look are multi-layered embroidered clothes, attractive ethnic accessories, and flowers in her hair. The flower crowns reminded Frida about her home — Mexico and they helped her deal with dark thoughts.
2. Marilyn Monroe — light-colored fur
The most famous blonde woman in Hollywood had a lot of different fur coats and collars that she easily combined with her other clothes. Marilyn could just wear a fur coat on top of a cocktail dress and attract a lot of looks at any event. A fur stole that she wore for 2 premiers was sold at an auction for almost $18,000.
3. Catherine Deneuve — shoes with a metal buckle
The film Belle de Jour made not only Catherine Deneuve famous, but also the Roger Vivier shoes. It is believed that the shoes could tell a lot about the main character’s feelings which is why the camera often showed her legs. After the release of the film, the shoes became popular really fast and the actress still works with Roger Vivier today.
4. Brigitte Bardot — hair ribbons
In Viva Maria!, the actress wore 2 black hair ribbons. The idea was really popular and Bardot continued to wear these ribbons in her everyday life. Stylists think that Bardot didn’t try to look more feminine, she was just mocking her own image of a seductress.
5. Grace Kelly — headband and Hermes bag
When she just started dating the Prince of Monaco, Grace chose very simple clothes and wore elegant hairbands. And she also often had her black Hermes bag: she covered her belly with it to hide the signs of pregnancy from journalists. Later, this bag model was named after the princess.
6. Michael Jackson — white glove
Almost all of the things that the king of pop wore became iconic. But the most popular one was the white glove the singer first wore on stage in 1983. People say that Michael tried to draw attention to how his hand moved and also hide his vitiligo. Michael himself said that one glove was cooler than 2.
7. Iris Apfel — giant glasses
This amazing 99-year-old woman became famous not only thanks to her interior design work, but also her edgy looks. When she was a child, Apfel found interesting frames for glasses and always thought that they were a cool accessory. And her glasses became really trendy: people specifically look for glasses just like hers.
8. Jane Birkin — wicker basket
In the ’80s, Hermes released a Birkin bag that the actress chose the draft for. Before that, she couldn’t find the right bag which is why she always had a wicker basket with her. People in a Portuguese village carry fish in these baskets and Birkin bought one of them.
9. Lady Gaga — shoes with huge soles
In the “Bad Romance” video, the singer appeared in a pair of iconic shoes from Alexander McQueen. The shoes on 12-inch heels were the best match for the extravagant Lady Gaga’s style. She quickly realized this and still continues to amaze the public with her choice of shoes: just remember her “meat” boots.
10. Karl Lagerfeld — fingerless gloves
The designer didn’t just wear his famous gloves, he made them part of his image. He thought that this way, his fingers looked longer and he himself appeared more powerful. There is a different version of this story — when he was a child, his mom told him that he had unattractive hands and he wanted to hide them, even when he grew up.
11. Elton John — unusual glasses
The singer made star- and heart-shaped glasses popular and his personal collection contains more than 250,000 pairs of glasses. Elton started hiding his eyes behind the glasses at the age of 13 because his idol, legendary singer Buddy Holly, did the same thing.
12. Kurt Cobain — woolen cardigan
The leader of Nirvana didn’t really care about his look. He wore baggy jeans and old T-shirts. But the green cardigan that he wore on MTV Unplugged became iconic. Recently, someone bought it for $334,000.
13. John Lennon — round glasses
Since he was a child, John was nearsighted and he first wore glasses on the set of How I Won the War. Over time, he found a model that he liked, he wore golden frames and started wearing darkened lenses. At the age of 31, he needed −8.25 and −7.5 diopter glasses — he couldn’t even see his guitar without them.
Bonus: Carrie Bradshaw — Manolo Blahnik shoes
The blue shoes played a big role in Sex and the City because the character played by Sarah Jessica Parker wore them during her wedding. The shoes became iconic, they are loved by Hollywood stars and the members of the British royal family. Princess Diana wore black Manolo Blahniks with her famous revenge dress and Meghan Markle chose the beige color for a photoshoot with her newborn son.

Almost everyone has heard the phrase “Shame on you!” and we all follow some unwritten rules when it comes to subjecting ourselves to these feelings. But in fact, it totally okay to live in a messy house, wear the same shoes for 10 years if you like them, and even read some silly book instead of classic literature.
We at Bright Side were really interested in reading articles by psychologists and other experts about the things that people shame us for really often.
1. Living in a messy house
Some people still think that if a man is not married, it’s okay for him to have a messy apartment but if there’s a woman in this apartment, it just has to be clean. The thing is, for some people washing the floors and doing the dishes is a sort of meditation, whereas for others — it’s torture. Sometimes, it gets absurd. When we are going to hire someone to clean our house, we try to clean it first so that the person doesn’t see the mess we live in. Or when someone is coming to visit, we spend 2-3 hours cleaning up. In Great Britain, there was a study that concluded that more than 50% of the respondents were very embarrassed about the state of their living spaces. And 1/3 of the people don’t like having guests for this reason. This means that there is no reason to be ashamed of the state of your home when most other people also feel the same way about their homes.
2. Crying in public
The stereotypes about crying women being drama queens, and crying men being weak should just cease to exist. Not everyone is able to keep their emotions in check 24/7, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Remember, there are always people that can help you when you need it.
3. Seeing a therapist
In some countries, the topic of psychological help is still considered taboo. If a person sees a therapist, they are thought to be crazy, so many people have to hide this fact even from their closest family and friends. When you open up to someone, you find out that many other people feel the same way but they don’t see therapists because they are ashamed.
4. Not being well-read
In a world where the classic arts are respected (literature, art, cinema), it’s hard to be the person who is only interested in modern masters. Try telling someone that you don’t want to read Tolstoy, Hugo, Dumas, and other classic writers. But literature today is not a source of knowledge, it’s a way to entertain yourself. Many people don’t actually read anything at all. But in reality, it’s a question of your own taste: if you are crazy about rap music and short detective stories, that’s your choice. Of course, classic art is good for general knowledge but you don’t have to love it.
5. Forgetting or confusing names
When you are at a big party and someone introduces you to a group of people, you are very likely to forget their names after a second or 2. This is perfectly normal because our brain doesn’t want to waste its energy on memorizing people’s names — there’s nothing really important about that. In other words, forgetting names is perfectly okay for anyone.
6. Saying something silly when you’re nervous
From time to time, everyone has trouble speaking: we confuse words, we don’t pronounce the endings, and so on. Of course, it’s not nice when something like this happens at an important job interview, but there’s nothing terrible about it. And the best way to fight your embarrassment is to actually say that you’re nervous and laugh at your own mistakes. This is a way to lighten the mood and make things easier for everyone.
7. Gossiping
Gossiping for many people is unacceptable. But in fact, there is a different take on it. Social scientists, for example, think that wanting to gossip is a useful social skill that helped people share information with each other to know who had certain resources, contacts, and so on. So, gossiping is not something shameful but more so a way to maintain contact with other members of society and a way to express your own attitude toward someone or something.
8. Wearing shoes or clothes that are old or no longer trendy
At any point in history, clothes were a sign of how successful a person was. And this is still true. Imagine: you go to the theater wearing jeans, and everyone else is dressed in dresses and tuxedos. Your natural reaction is to be embarrassed. But not dressing according to etiquette or wearing second-hand clothes is perfectly normal. Wearing the same shoes for several seasons is okay, too. Nobody should be ashamed of not being able to afford brand new clothes or just not wanting to spend money on them.

About 12 years ago, a photographer Alexander Khimushin set off on an exciting journey in search of small peoples and ethnic tribes on the brink of extinction in order to immortalize their representatives, at least in portraits. His best works were included in the project The World in Faces, which was presented at the UN exhibition in 2019. Despite the fact that Alexander has traveled to 86 countries, Siberia occupies a special place in this traveler’s heart.
