Drinking "pure" water dilutes some types of salt in the body, but does not "remove" it.

If it's not replaced with any processed foods soon after- yes. Salt is an essential element in the body.

Hi,
Yes water does dilute the sodium. If you have normal levels in your body drinking lots of water shouldn't harm you.
If your sodium levels are very low, drinking water can harm you. It happened to my father when he was in hospital. He didn't understand how important it was, not to drink water until his levels came up.
He suffered a brain seizure as a result.

NO...unless you drink a lot of water...that means you have to go to restroom every 15 minutes for 5-6 times

it will if you have too much salt in your system. but water has salt in it. unless you buy purified water that has had everything removed from it. switch to spring water. its still got salts and minerals.
