    You get dizzy, often constipated and you can end up eating more food then your body needs because you are simply thirsty.

    Eventually, you die. Before that, you dehydrate - dry skin, confusion, brown and hairy tongue.

    Additionally, you can potentially get too low on electrolytes when you are dehydrated. This can lead to things like extreme muscle cramping, tremors, numbness and tingling in extremities, and heart palpitations.

    Dehydration can cause cell metabolism to slow down, lowering your BMR. There are a broad range of symptoms associated with it, and it can cause or aggravate other conditions.
