Question

What happens to your cells when you drink salt water?

Answer 1

I think something that we can all agree on is that drinking saltwater is at best unpleasant. But did you know that it can also be dangerous? I know, it seems odd that something that covers over seventy percent of the earth’s surface could be dangerous to you. So, why is drinking saltwater dangerous? Today we’ll explore just that, by examining;Have you ever been to the beach? You’re swimming around in the ocean, minding your own business and somehow you manage to swallow some water. Aside from the taste you think no big deal right? But shortly after, an upset stomach is what you’ve got. If you’ve ingested a significant quantity, that might be a problem.

Some fads have emerged that encourage people to drink small amounts of saltwater daily to effect a sort of system purge. That isn’t necessarily harmful, so long as the amount remains small, and is balanced out with freshwater. The negative side effects happen when someone is forced to drink saltwater consistently as their only source of water.
