Why you urinate immediately after drinking water

I know most people do experience this, you feel like urinating immediately after drinking water. Well read what experts has to say on this below:

It is perfectly normal to pass urine frequently when we drink a lot of water. Water beyond the body’s requirement may dilute the internal fluid environment, including blood, and this may have health implications.
When there is excess water in the body, the brain usually produces less of a hormone called anti diuretic, which in turn causes the kidneys to produce a lot of dilute urine, until this excess water is removed.

Many people today take a lot of fluids, some to levels which make the kidney fail to match the pace of the water intake, leading to disturbance of the internal salt environment. This may have consequences, including swelling of the body, over flooding of the lungs resulting in breathing difficulties, and the heart failing to efficiently pump the overloaded blood vessels. The eventual swelling of the brain may also lead to convulsions.

Every time a well hydrated person takes in excess water, the kidneys will efficiently throw that water out by forming more urine than usual, and this may happen even with just one glass of water. Taking too much water may be too much of a good thing. It is important to take water, but not beyond eight glasses, and well distributed throughout the day.
