We couldn't live without water.
However, if you were to drink too much, it can wreak havoc on our brain and body.
Drinking more water than your kidneys can process can throw your blood sodium levels out of balance. That’s called water intoxication.
In extreme cases, it can cause brain damage, comas, and even death.

I once tried a diet that required me to drink one ounce of water for each pound I weighed and two ounces for each pound I wanted to lose. After two days of drinking several gallons, I had to quit. However, I did get a lot of exercise, isometric holding my knees together and aerobic running to the bathroom every ten minutes

I drink 1.5 to 2 liters of water a day chased by that much in coffee.
