Bruce Lee died because of Excessive water intake suggest new theory
Bruce Lee, a legend in the field of martial arts, passed away on July 20th, 1973. At age 32, his untimely demise has long been shrouded in mystery. Almost fifty years later, however, a fresh and shocking idea regarding the reason of his death has been proposed, with a high water intake being indicated as the cause: Hyponatremia led to cerebral oedema.
According to the results of the autopsy, Bruce Lee died from liver failure. Inability to excrete sufficient amounts of water to sustain homeostasis, the internal balance required for regular bodily function. The results of the study show that this has potentially lethal results.
Some of these dangers are highlighted by the researchers, who ironically quote Bruce Lee’s now-famous “be water, my friend.”
“If excessive water intake is not matched by water excretion in the urine, it can lead to hyponatraemia, brain oedema, and mortality within hours,” the researchers say.
Some evidence suggests that the martial arts expert regularly consumed too much water, leading to hyponatremia and eventually his death, according to studies conducted by Priscila Villalvazo, Raul Fernandez-Prado, Maria Dolores Sanchez Nino, Sol Carriazo, Beatriz Fernandez-Fernandez, Alberto Ortiz, and Maria Vanessa Perez-Gomez.
There are a number of factors that put Bruce Lee at risk for catastrophic cerebral oedema, including his use of alcohol, marijuana, steroids, diuretics, anti-inflammatory drugs, and medications for treating epilepsy and inflammation.
The study’s authors examine, one by one, the various accounts of Bruce Lee’s demise, from the canonical to the fringe, and publish their findings (hypersensitivity to Equagesic, a drug that includes aspirin and meprobamate).
More outlandish theories, such as mafia murder, drug addiction (particularly cocaine or cannabis), epilepsy, heart attack, or even a family curse, have been discounted.
