5l a day hell yeah it’s bad, no reason to be drinking that much??

5L is probably too much, you're practically flushing nutrients out at that rate.
I aim for about 3L daily.

Depends if there's symptoms or not.

If there are, talk to your doctor about electrolyte imbalances.

Look into symptoms of 'hyponatremia'

The best way to gauge how much water to drink is by listening to your body.
Are you urinating too much? Drink less.
Are you starting to feel lethargic? Drink less.

If you're worried about nutrient flushing, take electrolytes in the morning or mid-day.
