Vitamin B deficiency from high fluid intake?

Hello,

I was curious if high fluid intake could prone you to vitamin b deficiency due to it being water soluble.

For the past 2 years I've been having problems such as glossitis, seborrheic dermatitis, numbness in legs, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, poor short term memory, and mild speech problems. I've talked to my friend's father who is a physician and he said these could be symptoms of vitamin b deficiency. The thing is, I eat good sources of vitamin b all the time. I eat bananas, chicken, eggs, and whole grain bread almost every day. But I do drink a lot of water. I would say around 2-3 gallons a day.

So could my high water consumption be flushing the vitamin b out of my body?

2-3 gallons of water a day!  Now, come on, you KNOW that's too much water each day.  You're only supposed to drink 8 glasses a day, which is 1/2 a gallon.  I used to drink way too much water myself, and the more you drink, the more you want.  So, cutting back on the water, will definitely be better.

And, yes, I'm sure that you're not only flushing out vitamins, but electrolytes and everything else.  Stop drinking so much water and you'll start to feel better.

Water soluble vitamins means that they are not stored in the liver for use later on and must be eaten daily to benefit from them.
