There are at least 3 reasons why you should avoid drinking water before going to sleep: you’ll be running to the bathroom throughout the night, you might notice some facial and limb swelling in the morning, and the volume of your blood increases dangerously. Experts say that excessive water intake while exercising can have several negative side effects. Completely clear urine is a sign of over-hydration. If you have colorless urine, you’re probably drinking too much water during the day, even when you don't feel thirsty. You should never drink water after eating something spicy like chili peppers. Having too much water with your meal often leads to indigestion. This happens because your mouth produces saliva, which has enzymes that are essential for a healthy digestive process.

It may seem like a great idea to refresh yourself on a hot summer day by drinking some water from the garden hose. But even if the hose is connected to a pipe with a clean water system, the pipe itself contains elements that can be really dangerous for your health. If you accidentally get some water in your mouth while swimming in the sea, you should spit it out immediately. Not unless you want to spend your whole vacation suffering from rotavirus and all its nasty symptoms. It’s important to remember that drinking excessive amounts of water leads to low sodium levels and unpleasant side effects.
