Answers:
It is very dangerous to drink that much water!.

The current guidelines are for 2 litres a day, including water in food!

Drinking more that 3 litres of water a day can mess up your electrolyte balances, which can result in you falling into a coma!. 4-5 gallons is FAR too much!.

Please do not drink this much, for your health!Www@Answer-Health@Com
