Episode 3508: Dr. Neal Malik takes on a question he gets often: whether the tea and coffee you drink through the day count toward your daily fluid needs. He looks at what the research actually says about caffeine and hydration, and how to think about your total fluid intake rather than tracking plain water alone. It is a practical reset on one of the more persistent healthy habits myths.
