Yes, drinking too much water can be toxic - except it is very hard to drink too much fresh, clean water to be able to die. Normal healthy people would need to drink on the order of 20 liters per day for it to be toxic but people with some medical problems, particularly the elderly and very young, can get toxic on much lesser amounts. Also people with psychiatric disorders, most notably schizophrenia.
Drinking too much water is called polydipsia. This, as well as several other processes, can cause low blood concentrations of sodium, which is known as (dilutional) hyponatremia.
Drinking very large amounts of water over a short period of time may be fatal. This was demonstrated in the infamous case of the "wee for a Wii contest" where contestants tried to drink the most water to win a Wii. One contestant died. The excess water dilutes electrolytes and causes water intoxication which can lead to electrical disturbances in the body resulting in erratic neuronal tranmission of signals which can cause death.
However, drinking too much water can also be dangerous. Overhydration can lead to water intoxication. This occurs when the amount of salt and other electrolytes in your body become too diluted. Hyponatremia is a condition in which sodium (salt) levels become dangerously low.
when drinking too much water, it can lead to water intoxication, which is when the amount of salt and other electrolytes in your body become too diluted. when sodium levels are too low, it can lead to hyponatremia, causing dizziness, fatigue, lethargy, malaise, or even thirst.
Yes, indeed it is.
It is called overhydration.
You can easily avoid it because it is hard to get overhydrated.
You won't want to drink any more water when you are in this condition.
However, if you still do it, you will result in terrible conditions.
Never try this!
A Russian nephrologist, Anna Korubkina, warned against drinking too much water at once. The doctor stressed that the excess of water can negatively affect human health and lead to a condition called "water poisoning", a condition that leads to a decrease in the concentration of electrolytes that promote the movement of nutrients in the cells of the body and the expulsion of metabolic products from them.
Well yes but it doesn't happen as often. Drinking too much water is called water intoxication. Water intoxication happens when you are overhydrated. If this does happen, try to replace sodium in severe cases and try to lay off the water for a little bit. :)
Yes, and it depends on your sodium/salt intake. Salt retains water. Way too much water with not enough salt/sodium to balance your bodies ability to absorb it could lead to problems. Same that having way too much salt/sodium and not enough water can lead to problems. Too much of basically anything can be problematic, as it can throw off balances or overload.
Your threshold of overdosing on water depends on your sodium levels. How pure the water you are drinking is also going to play a role on the toxicity.
Water can absorb nutrients into the water depriving your cells of those nutrients if the balance is way off. You can also die of dehydration even if you are being fed a lot of water if you don't have the sodium to retain it.
But in general, if you are eating a square 2-3 meals a day of a balanced diet, you will probably never overdose on water unless you lose your mind and start chugging gallons and gallons in a day.
Here are some effective Tips on how to lose Belly Fat while eating food and foods not to consume. Belly fat is more than a nuisance that makes your clothes feel tight. It’s seriously harmful. One type of belly fat — referred to as visceral fat — is a major risk factor for type 2 Diabetes, Heart disease, and other conditions. Many health organizations use body mass index (BMI) to classify weight and predict the risk of metabolic disease. However, this is misleading, as people with excess belly fat are at an increased risk even if they look thin though losing fat from this area can be difficult, there are several things you can do to reduce excess abdominal fat. Here are some effective tips to lose belly fat, backed by scientific studies.
Eat plenty of soluble fiber, soluble fiber absorbs water and forms a gel that helps slow down food as it passes through your digestive system. Studies show that this type of fiber promotes weight loss by helping you feel full, so you naturally eat less. It may also decrease the number of calories your body absorbs from food.
Avoid foods that contain trans fats, Trans fats are created by pumping hydrogen into unsaturated fats, such as soybean oil. They’re found in some margarines and spreads and also often added to packaged foods, but many food producers have stopped using them. These fats have been linked to inflammation, heart disease, insulin resistance, and abdominal fat gain in observational and animal studies.
Don’t drink too much alcohol, alcohol can have health benefits in small amounts, but it’s seriously harmful if you drink too much. Research suggests that too much alcohol can also make you gain belly fat. Observational studies link heavy alcohol consumption to a significantly increased risk of developing central obesity — that is, excess fat storage around the waist.

The problem is called “water intoxication”, though it is rare. It is most often seen in soldiers or athletes who are physically active in a hot environment and overcompensate on their water intake. In extreme cases, it can lead to death.

When you drink too much water, it dilutes the blood and in particular the electrolytes in the blood, like sodium and potassuum ion. It’s that sodium that controls the fluid balance between the inside and outside of your cells. When too much liquid enters the cells, they can swell, which is particularly dangerous in the brain. The first symptoms are headache, nausea, and/or vomiting, and it gets worse from there. You want to get to a hospital.
(That’s one reason why so-called sports drinks—not “energy drinks”—usually contain added electrolytes to compensate for the electrolyte dilution in the blood. Most people do not need sports drinks.)
However, it is hard to drink that much water accidentally, except for the instances mentioned earlier. For most people, staying hydrated, especially in hot, dry weather when you don’t notice thirst as easily, is the greater problem.
How much is too much? That depends on your body mass and how quickly you drink the water (or other beverage). A reasonable rule of thumb is to limit water consumption to about a quart (or liter) per hour. But that’s just a rule of thumb.

Drink when you’re thirsty, but not large quantities in a short time. Pay attention to the color of your urine. It should be light, straw yellow, not dark yellow.
It can drown your cells, making them swell
If you exceed the amount of vitamins you are allowed to take, then YES!
βIt can get bad too much caffeine
Well, if drinking too much apple juice seems to be bad then I think grape juice is too, but only if its not made entirely of grape.
What? No!
HAHA i dont think so. Drinking too much water doesn't give you gas but overdoing the water drinking can cause drowning yourself.
Yes, you can also die by drinking too much water.
Water is not bad when having hiccups, because you can do without drinking water. But too much of water may increase its rate.
drinking too much water is dangerous because all this water is absorbed and as it is taken out of the system it carries useful nutrients and minerals, mainly salts, along.
No
yes
Do things.
