THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF DRINKING TOO MUCH WATER
Hello everyone.
So everybody's talking about how important it is to drink water, and the need to have plenty of fluids going in your system. That's great, it's fantastic, it's healthy. But what we don't know is that things that are done in excess can have harmful side effects. Even something as negligible as drinking water.
Drinking too much water may result in what is known as over hydration, which causes a fluid imbalance in the body that can be life threatening. Over hydration is a condition that occurs from drinking too much water, or the body's inability to remove such, there by causing an electrolytic imbalance. Now over hydration can also be acquired through other means like the effects of certain medication that causes your body to retain more water than is needed, or certain kidney problems even that cause water retention in the body. However it is a fact that over hydration is also caused by drinking too much water.
~What exactly happens with excess water intake
When we drinking too much water that the body cannot remove on time, the balance between sodium and water levels is thrown off, because sodium is dissolved in excess body fluid. This is a condition known as hyponatremia. In extreme cases, the body cells will begin to swell, and the skin cells may expand and cause discoloration. The turgidity of the braincells cause a lingering headache and puts one at a risk of seizures, coma, or even death.
A fluid overload in the body system may cause nausea, emesis, or diarrhoea. Sometimes, the symptoms of over hydration appear similar to dehydration, which is inadequate intake of water. This excess water retention may cause complications in persons with a weak heart or kidney.
It is important to note too that some drugs increase a person's affinity for water, that is their water consumption.
I hope with this I have educated you a little about the negative effects of drinking too much water .
This is hypothetically speaking ,actually our body has an inherent property of removing to much water when the system fails then this things will most likely occur.
