Doctors believe that the inability of the kidneys to remove excess water from the body killed the celebrity.

Hong Kong and American film actor, director, martial artist and founder of the Jeet Kune Do style, Bruce Lee, who died in 1973 at the age of 33, died from drinking too much water. It was reported by the Clinical Kidney Journal.

As you know, the cause of Li’s death was a brain tumor. Experts say it comes from taking painkillers. Later, different versions of the actor’s death appeared. The media wrote that the star was either killed by a Chinese gangster, poisoned by a jealous lover, or became the victim of a curse, or died of heat stroke.

But now researchers have reviewed the autopsy results, the pathologist and medical examiner’s reports, and say that Bruce actually died of hyponatremia.

This is an abnormally low level of sodium in the blood, which the body needs to balance fluids. And the imbalance causes the body’s cells to grow, including those in the brain.

“In other words, we think that the failure of the kidneys to excrete excess water killed Bruce Lee,” the panel wrote in the Clinical Kidney Journal.

“Bruce Lee had several risk factors for hyponatremia, including drinking a lot of fluids, using marijuana, which increases thirst, and other factors that reduce kidney function, such as using prescription drugs and alcohol. We hypothesize that Bruce Lee died from a special form of kidney dysfunction: an inability to excrete enough water to maintain water homeostasis, which is largely due to function of the tubules. This can lead to hyponatremia, cerebral edema and death within hours if excessive water intake is not accompanied by the excretion of water in the urine, which corresponds to Li’s death schedule,” the experts emphasize.

Recall that earlier in Hong Kong, a Universal Geneve Polerouter watch, once owned by Bruce Lee, was sold at an auction. The lot went under the hammer for 25 thousand euros.
