“Imagine someone drinks a lot of water very quickly. How does this affect the amount of sodium in the fluid around their cells, and what happens to the water as a result? Explain this like you're talking to a friend. Explain how osmosis is involved in what happens to cells when someone has hyponatremia. Use your own words.
