Hi I was wondering the same thing, I drink at least 1.5 liters of water per day, I drink the bottled water, then I drink decalf. tea as well, so I'm glad to know that you can't drink too much water.

I have an nutrition degree and actually a person can drink too much water. This is usually rare since most people drink too much caffeine, a diuretic that makes you pee alot. Too much water can throw off your electolytes and in those rar cases can cause "water poisoning".

I just started my third pregnancy, and with the recent heat that Portland has seen, I will gladly drink a gallon of water a day.
