overhydrates
Consumes too much water
Overhydrates means to consume too much water or fluids, disrupting the body's electrolyte balance.
The term appears most often in medical and athletic contexts, where drinking excessive amounts can dilute sodium levels dangerously: She overhydrates before marathons, which can be as risky as dehydration.
The condition is called hyponatremia.
