Too much drinking water can attack the brain and endanger your life,

Intoxication is water poisoning which causes the body to lack blood sodium concentration. So that causes water to enter the cell and make a pretty dangerous effect, especially on the brain. When intoxication, water will trigger the cells of the human brain to swell, they compress the inner surface of the skull, and produces very annoying headaches, nausea, and so painful vomiting.

Other symptoms of intoxication are high blood pressure, chaotic vision, tremors, muscle weakness, and difficulty breathing. Severe intoxication can cause death. Usually occurs in soldiers or athletes who often misinterpret dehydration and intoxication.

a healthy human kidney can filter up to 1 liter every hour. So, if you end up drinking more than that, the risk of intoxication is targeting you. And the risk will be higher for patients with chronic kidney disease or only with one kidney function.
