Try Nuun or High 5 tabs. I have started using them, they are easy to carry and do the job (I used to cramp a lot).

Might not help, but wont do any harm.

And also, is he drinking because he thinks he should drink, or because he is thirsty?

Im not sure about that, probably a bit of both really. I think because its warm, he sweats alot and so feels he has to replace it.

That's an awful lot of water to get through even on a warm day.
