Do you think I'm drinking too much water?

[xoris97]

I started to drink a lot recently, I drink 4 to 5 liters of water per day.
Do you think it's too much or dangerous

I don't feel wrong, I feel much better since I drink that much!

I saw a girl die on 1000 ways to die because she drank so much water her brain swelled because her salt balance was off. I don't know though?

[Lissy967]

It is a lot.. 😲 why do you drink that much though? Just thirsty? A lot of salt? Physically active?

[xoris97]

Well, I heard it was good and started to drink this much but then some people told me it was bad.
It's not that I feel thirsty, it's just that I can drink 4-5 liters without feeling wrong like some people do. Also it's getting hot here so it makes me feel fresh!

[Lissy967]

Oh, I see. I guess it is alright since you sweat some of it out. But keep in mind that usually it is not normal to drink that much. Water poisoning can be dangerous, especially if you drink 5l of water in a short period of time :)

Last study showed you should drink at least 2 litres of water per day. So yeah, too much really..

[xoris97]

Yeah, at least, so more than 2.

Sounds like a lot of water. If you feel thirsty, then you may have a medical problem.

There is nothing wrong with drinking water so much ^^ Better 5 liter a day than 5 liter of soda right

Sounds fine to me
