Does anyone else overhydrate? I think I drink too much water and my electrolytes plummet. I also eat pretty clean but try to salt everything! Urine Is just about clear but man I move a lot and just get thirsty!

This is a thing. It can overwork your kidneys. Every now and then, maybe. If it continues seek your medical professionals. There are health consequences from drinking too much water.1

I probably overhydrate. Like you, I get thirsty. I sweat a lot when I exercise, so drink a lot then, but I also keep water by my side all the time when I'm not exercising. Most of the time my pee is clear or nearly so. I have wondered whether it is the cause of some of my energy issues.0

Out of interest, when you say you overhydrate, how much are you drinking in 24hrs , height, and weight ??0

This is not a diagnosis but you can get the gist of the matter.0
