Why would drinking large amounts of water affect the salt balance in the body?

When you drink lots of water, there happens a lot of chemical reactions in your body, but the reason your salt balances are affected can by explained with one simple reaction. Basically, when you eat salt, your body's salt concentration gets higher. Concentration represents how much salt there is in your blood divided by how much water there is in your blood. When you drink more water, your salt concentration gets smaller. There is also a condition called hyponatremia, which is caused by overhydration. Drinking excess water results in the kidneys dumping water (urination; homeostasis). The water, however, takes some salt with it. Thus, drinking a lot of water may result in lowering the salt concentration in the body (assuming the kidneys are working).
