HealthPhoto: HT HealthDoctor Warns Excessive Water Intake During Marathon Lowers Blood Sodium
Dr. Judhajit Sengupta from Narayana RN Tagore Hospital, Kolkata, explains that drinking too much water during a marathon can cause exercise-associated hyponatraemia (EAH), a condition where blood sodium levels drop dangerously low. While hydration is important, overhydrating during prolonged exercise can pose serious health risks. Runners should balance fluid intake to avoid this condition.
