How much is too much?
The simple answer is yes. If you are drinking more than two gallons of water a day (include all beverages in the total of fluid) then you are pushing your limits. If you are that thirsty you need to have your doctor run some tests to make sure you do not have a medical condition.
Yes. Many have. Even one case of a competition by a radio station that ended in death by drinking too much water.
Yes. It's called water intoxication. It happens when the water dilutes the nutrients in your body so that they can no longer function properly.
i was always told that you can die from too much of anything.
Yes, there was a woman who died recently when she drank too much water for some radio show contest
I think it's possible. Too much water can cause serious electrolite imbalance. When your electrolite balance is out of whack, you can have some very serious health problems. I think some of them can lead to death if not corrected.
From what i understand, you can. The condition is called hyponatremia. This is when you drink too much water and the water in your system lowers your Sodium level too much.
