Does consuming a one litre of water empty stomach early morning put additional load on your kidneys? Is it harmful in anyway?

You can take water how much ever you want, that does not cause any problem to your kidneys, but you should take intermittently in a day rather than taking at a time.

Dear lybrateuser, -drinking about a litre of water on empty stomach early morning is fine & beneficial also but to avoid putting load on the kidneys at your age it is advisable to drink it slowly over a period of time rather than gulping the whole quantity in one go.
