Water intoxication is a medical condition where the body is overhydrated, caused by consuming excessively large amounts of water. Water intoxication is also dependent on the rate of consumption of the water. When the body gets too much water too quickly, body fluids become to dilute, leading to electrolyte and mineral imbalances.
