A member asked:
A doctor told me drinking a lot of water can cause high blood pressure and sweating is also not good for high blood pressure is this true?

Yes: Drinking too much water hurts the kidneys. Your total water intake, including water in your food should not normally exceed 2 l. Drink only when you are thirsty.
