Your kidneys will use the water to excrete as much sodium as possible through your urine—resulting in extreme dehydration. If you accidentally swallow some seawater during a choppy surf session, you can avoid the symptoms of mild dehydration —dry mouth, infrequent urination, dizziness, and fatigue—by downing fresh water, too. Guzzling saltwater would cause a much more severe, and life-threatening, form of dehydration. I like how the doctor set out to prove if people could sustain life while drinking low amounts of saltwater without any provisions… but snuck the provisions.
He tried to prove an experiment, but instead proved to be an epic cheating, failure. Wudda dumbass! Alain Bombard may be a cheater, but what if human can actually survive by drinking seawater? How about the case of Aldi, a 19 years old boy who stranded at sea for 49 days? It said that he drank seawater to survive.
Maybe human are more adaptable than we thought or theorised. The fact that Aldi said that he drank seawater really surprised me. I bet he might still have fresh drinking water in bottles. However I will confirm that in the next months as I will personally meet him in Indonesia. All of you are literally insane for believing any of this. Now being rescued by 44 agents from CSI miami, the girls from teen mom, and walker texas ranger himself dressed as bruce lee in a python movie, ive been at home making sure to put loads of salt in all of my water.
Im like shamoo in this bit! Bobby booshae lovin criminals. If you are lost at sea, make sure you rub those coconuts all over your nips and balls for foreplay then insert into the arse for real fun.

Sorry Mohammad. I could understand what you said. Probably yes. Thanks so much! This helped with the exam I am taking. Nice article by the way. Kay kay! That's because a cell's membrane is semipermeable — although sodium, chloride and other substances may not be able to easily diffuse in and out of the cell, water can. When the salt concentration is higher on the outside of our cells than on the inside, water moves from the inside to the outside of the cells to correct the imbalance.
The attempt to equalize the concentrations of matter on both sides of a semipermeable membrane is called osmosis. If you're consuming seawater, the results of osmosis are spectacularly disastrous. Remember the salinity of seawater is almost four times that of our bodily fluids. If gone unchecked, the net transfer of water from the inside of your cells to the outside will cause the cells to shrink considerably — and shrinkage is never good. Unless you drink a lot of fresh water, the body's regulatory mechanism in this situation is potentially fatal.
With seawater, the change in sodium concentration outside our cells is the main culprit. In order to regain an isotonic state, a must for cell survival, the body attempts to eliminate the excess sodium from its extracellular fluids. It secretes urine. However, human kidneys can only produce urine that's slightly less salty than saltwater. So, in order to remove the extreme amount of sodium taken in by saltwater, we urinate more water than we actually drank.
And dehydration sets in. So, if you're guzzling seawater, you actually aren't taking in any water but are incurring a net loss, leading to depleted body fluids, muscle cramps, dry mouth, and yes, thirst.
