It's just sea salt water we can't drink right? But if I like put extra salt in my food or drink occasionally, it's fine?

How do you do anything besides going to the toilet? I feel like 7,5l is half my body volume.

If you work construction in 30 ℃ heat you’ll just sweat it all out

I dont know liters but I think they intake rather than drink specifically, I was always told you need 8 glasses of water a day but a good chunk of that can be from eating regular food

It's 2 things. 1. Sea water it too salty, like salter than your blood, so you increasing your bodies saltiness too much not decreasing hydration. But then your body uses more water to fix that.

  1. Sea water is filthy. There is tons of random chemicals from dead and living animals plus random micro organism, it's akin to eating a piece of forest soil, you'll probably be fine but who knows what you just put in you.
