There is nothing wrong with the amount of water you are drinking, if you aren't drinking it all at once and if you haven't just recently upped your intake from like one litre to 5 litres.
I drink approximately 1 to 2 gallons of fluids an day. Herbal tea, coffee, and water only. But I have always drank a lot of fluids. But if I started tomorrow drinking an extra glass nothing would happen to me and I could over time increase it even more. Say up to 3 gallons. But If I start drinking 3 gallons tomorrow, it would not be healthy.
Its kinda like upping your tolerance to alcohol.
I drink around the same amount! Nothing wrong with it unless you are into taking drugs. Then its possible to drown the brain literally. Drinking several litres over a relatively short period of time could be enough to cause water intoxication. Those most at risk include people taking ecstasy, as the drug increases thirst and facilitates the release of anti-diuretic hormones so more water is taken in but cannot be excreted. Also, elderly people because their kidney function may be impaired. But so long as you are taking it over the course of a day and going to the loo normally, there is no problem. And I presume you have been checked for diebetes??
you can kill yourselp in to much water can drown you and you will die
Your suppose to drink at least 8 cups of water. 8oz.
When you drink too much water, it will run through your digestive system and you won't get the nutrients from your food. A symptom of this is diarrhea.
If you drink too much water AT ONE TIME, you could die from water intoxication. Drinking a lot of water over the course of a day probably won't harm you, though. The next time you go to the doctor, you should mention this, but he or she will probably say it's fine.
As for herbal tea, it depends on which herb the tea is made with. Some herbs are very intert, while others can cause health effects if overconsumed. Some herbal teas act as diuretics, or substances that cause you to urinate more often, and perhaps make you feel more thirsty if you drink too much of them. This is another thing you could bring up with your doctor.
