A while back I had a kidney stone. When I asked how to prevent them moving forward, I was told drinking more water, especially with lemon, was best for flushing your kidneys, and preventing stones from forming.

At the same time I was also told that pee should be virtually clear. If it is not, then you are not drinking enough water.

I do not believe water will "over work" your kidneys at all. Just the opposite in fact.
