G'day Golum300, Thank you for your question. You can contact a condition known as water intoxication, hyperhydration or water poisoning. This results from the normal balance of electrolytes in the body being unbalanced. This condition can result in death as the functioning of your brain, muscles and heart. I have attached sources for your reference. Regards Reference Wikipedia Water Intoxication http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_Intoxication#_note-0 BBC News Why is too much water dangerous http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/magazine/6263029.stm University of Florida http://www.hhp.ufl.edu/faculty/pbird/keepingfit/ARTICLE/toomuchwater.htm Water Intoxication http://waterintoxication.org/
