A member asked:
How much water is too much water to drink in a day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Water: I believe on a usual day we need 1 liter of water per day and on very very hot days we need 2 to3 liters per day, drinking too much water can lead to water intoxication which can cause confusion, seizures, coma and death due to low sodium etc.
