Also remember to eat something salty. Drinking a lot of water, drains the body salts, and lacking salt can be very bad too.
If you drink 2 liters of water quickly, it can be lethal because it pushes your salt levels out of whack.
They mentioned that in paragraph 2.
Ah yes, except it’s made more complicated than it has to be. The thing is to get salt. Sodium is a basic element not a salt. Also you don’t have to drink it, usually it’s easier and cheaper to find in foods.
If 2 liters pushes you into hyponaiteremia then you were already low.
Yes, or low weight or both. Fact of the matter is, it happened.
