When fluid intake increases dramatically, the body will have an excess of water. ADH (antidiuretic hormone) helps the body retain water by concentrating the urine. Therefore, if there is too much water in the body, ADH secretion decreases to allow for the excretion of the excess water, diluting the urine.
