7.Can I Drink Too Much?
You can, but it’s not very likely. When you drink more than your kidneys can handle — and that’s a lot — you end up with a condition called hyponatremia. This is when your sodium levels get very low, causing your cells to swell up. It can be deadly. It mostly only happens to people who compete in intense long-distance races. Even then, it’s rare.
8.Tips for Staying Hydrated
If you just can’t remember to drink enough water, look for ways to build it into your day. Make water your go-to drink. Tip a glass at and between each meal. Or set a reminder on your phone to have a glass every hour. Some people find that carrying a water bottle does the trick. And if you’re hankering for a snack, have water instead. Sometimes, our bodies confuse thirst for hunger.
