A doctor has provided 1 answer
Too much water?: The best rule to follow is to drink only when you are thirsty. Drinking several gallons a day can lead to dangerous low blood sodium resulting in confusion, seizures, coma and death. Not to mention the need to pee all the time to get rid of the water.
