There are those who do not drink enough water and there are those who overdo it. The truth is that everything needs a measure and the same goes for water consumption. If you drink less than expected you will have problems in your body (such as dehydration), but problems can also be caused by excessive consumption.
"Some people are somehow addicted to water, resulting in an electrolyte imbalance from excessive intake, also known as hyponatremia," says Dr. Christopher Calapai.
According to experts, excessive water consumption can reduce your sodium content in your blood through sweat.
What are the symptoms of hyponatremia?
Dizziness and tendency to faint
Motion sickness
Weight gain during exercise
Vomit tendency
Headache
Spiritual confusion
And in rarer cases, seizures.
Experts, therefore, emphasize that it is important to listen to our body and drink water when we are thirsty.
