Best Answer

Your body uses the least amount of liquid available to flush the toxins and bacteria from your body. This means that your body is trying to conserve the little water in your body already and has to flush out just the same amount of "bad" stuff using a little amount of water. The little amount of water becomes very concentrated with the toxins and bacteria because it can not disperse the toxins over large amounts of water.

large intakes of water lowers the osmotic potential of blood.therefore,the posterior lobe of pituitary gland is only less stimulated to secrete anti-diuretic hormone (ADH) . water re-absorption by the kidney tubules becomes minimal,this leads to the production of large amounts of colorless,dilute urine.
