Water intoxication / Overhydration

Water intoxication, also known as water poisoning or overhydration, occurs when someone drinks so much water that the kidneys can't excrete the excess water. The excess water can dilute the electrolytes in your blood, especially sodium. When sodium levels fall below 135 mmol/L, it's called hyponatremia. Sodium helps balance fluids between the inside and outside of cells.

When sodium levels drop due to excess water consumption, fluids shifts from the outside to the inside of cells, causing them to swell. When this happens to brain cells, it can produce potentially life-threatening effects.

Symptoms of water intoxication include:

Headache
Nausea and vomiting
Confusion, disorientation
Seizures
In severe cases, coma and even death
