    My Dr was always freaked out by how much water I drink.

    Turns out I’m not a diabetic, I just love drinking water.

    It is worth checking though.

      I chatted to someone on the train once who told me she got addicted to the habit of drinking water and was hospitalized for a month or so because she basically flushed out all of her electrolytes and was deficient in everything. She said she was at 5-6L though.

        I probably average a little better than that. I also drink tap water and am fortunate enough to live somewhere with excellent water. I have heard of people having similar issues with distilled water.
