Expert Answer
Water is good for rehydration. There have been severe cases where the over-consumption of water had led to death. If we drink more water than your actual body requirements it leads to water intoxication.
Harmful effects of excessive water intake:
- Decrease in sodium levels in the blood
- Increased pressure on blood vessels and the heart
- Damage to glomeruli
- Swelling of cells
- Brain oedema
- Depletion of potassium levels in the blood
- Stomach irritation
- Liver problems
