The paper proposes that Lee's kidneys failed to excrete water quickly and efficiently enough
The study hypothesized that although he had not consumed a huge amount of water, his kidneys were potentially not able to handle even normal amounts of fluid. In addition, he had reportedly been existing on a near-liquid diet of mostly juices.dysfunction that can lead to “hyponatremia, and death within hours if excess water intake is not matched by water excretion in urine, which is in line with the timeline of Lee’s demise.
Given that hyponatraemia is frequent, as is found in up to 40% of hospitalized persons and may cause death due to excessive water ingestion even in young healthy persons, there is a need for a wider dissemination of the concept that excessive water intake can kill. The fact that we are 60% water does not protect us from the potentially lethal consequences of drinking water at a faster rate than our kidneys can excrete excess water.
