Diabetes insipidus is caused by the inability to conserve water and maintain an optimum free water level. The kidneys pass large amounts of dilute urine regardless of the body’s hydration state, leading to symptoms of extraordinary thirst, copious water intake (up to 20 liters per day), dry skin, and constipa-tion.
