The Benefits of Water
It is said that
this is written by a doctor -- I believe it but don't really know.
It seems to
contain good material -- after all, we sell great water products.
Use your own
judgment.
|
The remedy for your medical problems may be as close as your
faucet! Pigs will fly before the medical establishment will
disclose something simple and free in lieu of costly (and
frequently dangerous) medications; but they do tell us to
drink plenty of water. They just don't know, or don't tell us
the great benefit. In forty years of practice I have seen many
apparent miracles produced solely by plain water. You won't
believe what 8 to 10 eight-ounce glasses of water per day will
do for many maladies. |
There two major problems:
First, we
are creatures of habit. We get used to drinking coffee or
tea or soda and we resist the notion of going back to water.
[People with Living Water and SpringHouse
systems will have an easier time with this decision, because
they will have delicious and safe water!]
Next, people won't drink that much due to the inconvenience
of frequent urination; a small price to pay for better
health.
By the way, if your urine is not a very pale yellow or even
clear, you are not getting enough water (does
not apply to those taking B-complex vitamins, as they can
turn the urine bright yellow).
[Note: Users of Infinity products will see
far less yellowing because their absorption rate will be
quite a lot higher.]

When I speak of water I do NOT refer to coffee, sodas or tea.
Distilled or spring water is best but tap water will work just
fine for most people. Some places have water which has an odor
and is not at all that tasty. Put a jug in the fridge for a
few days and it will taste better. In addition, much of the
chlorine will vanish. Prior to drinking, shake it vigorously for
a while. This will oxygenate it. |
Remedy #1: Dump the
Tums and cure heartburn.
Heartburn may be a signal of water
shortage in the upper part of the gastrointestinal
tract. It is a major thirst signal of the human body.
The use of antacids or tablet
medications in the treatment of this pain does not correct
dehydration, and the body continues to suffer as a result of
its water shortage.
Tragedy: Not recognizing heartburn
as a sign of dehydration and treating it with antacids and
pill medications will, in time, produce inflammation of the
stomach and duodenum, hiatal hernia, ulceration, and
eventually cancers in the gastrointestinal tract, including
the liver and pancreas.
|
Remedy #2: Water may
prevent and cure arthritis.
Rheumatoid Joint Pain - Arthritis -
may be a signal of water shortage in the painful joint. It
can affect the young as well as the old. The use of
painkillers does not cure the problem, but exposes the
person to further damage from pain medications.
Intake of water will cure this
problem.

Low Back Pain and Ankylosing [editor
does not know what this means -- this is an old article]
Arthritis of the Spine may be signs of water shortage in the
spinal column and discs -- the spinal cushions that support
the weight of the body. These conditions should be treated
with increased water intake. This is not a commercial
treatment, but a very effective one.
Tragedy: Not recognizing arthritis
and low back pain as signs of dehydration in the joint
cavities and treating them with painkillers, manipulation,
acupuncture, and eventually surgery will, in time, produce
osteoarthritis when the cartilage cells in the joints have
eventually all died. It will produce deformity of the
spine. It will produce crippling deformities of the limbs.
Pain medications have their own life-threatening
complications.
|
Heart Pain - Angina - can be a sign
of water shortage in the heart/lung axis.
It should be treated with increased
water intake until the patient is free of pain and
independent of medications. Medical supervision is prudent;
however, increased water intake may be your "fix" for
angina.
|
Migraine Headache may be a sign that
water is needed by the brain and the eyes. Migraine may be
prevented by keeping dehydration from establishing in the
body and may be totally cleared up by treating for the
condition of dehydration. This particular type of
dehydration might eventually cause inflammation of the back
of the eye and possibly loss of eyesight.
|
Colitis Pain is a signal of water
shortage in the large gut. It is associated with
constipation because the large intestine constricts to
squeeze too much water from the excrements - thus the lack
of water lubrication.
Tragedy: Not recognizing colitis
pain as a sign of dehydration will cause persistent
constipation, which can result in fecal impacting,
verticulitis, hemorrhoids, polyps, and appreciably increase
the possibility of developing cancers of the colon and
rectum.
|
Asthma, which also affects 12
million children and kills several thousands of them every
year, is a complication of dehydration in the body. It is
caused by the drought management programs of the body. Free
passage of air is obstructed so that water does not leave
the body in the form of vapor - the winter "steam" that is
seen when you breathe in a cold air environment. Increased
water intake will prevent asthma attacks.
Tragedy: Not recognizing asthma as
the indicator of dehydration in growing children not only
will sentence many thousands of children to die every year,
but will permit irreversible genetic damage to establish in
the remaining asthmatic children
|
Remedy #8: High blood
pressure.
Hypertension is a state of
adaptation of the body to a generalized drought when there
is not enough water to fill all the blood vessels which
diffuse water into vital cells. As part of the mechanism of
reverse osmosis, when water from the serum is filtered and
injected into important cells through minute holes in their
membranes, extra pressure is needed for the "injection
process." Just as we inject I.V. "water" in hospitals, so
the body injects water into tens of trillions of cells all
at the same time. Water intake will bring blood pressure
back to normal!
Tragedy: Not recognizing
hypertension as one of the major indicators of dehydration
in the human body, and treating it with diuretics that
further dehydrate the body will, in time, cause blockage by
cholesterol of the heart arteries and the arteries that go
to the brain. It will cause heart attacks and small or
massive strokes that paralyze. It will eventually cause
kidney diseases. It will cause brain damage and
neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease.
|
Remedy #9:
Adult-onset diabetes.
Adult-Onset Diabetes is another
adaptive state to severe dehydration of the human body. To
have adequate water in circulation and for the brain's
priority water needs, the release of insulin is inhibited to
prevent insulin from pushing water into all body cells. In
diabetes only some cells get survival rations of
water. Water will reverse adult-onset diabetes in its early
stages.
Tragedy: Not recognizing adult-onset
diabetes as a complication of dehydration may, in time,
cause massive damage to the blood vessels all over the
body. It may cause eventual loss of the toes, feet and legs
from gangrene. It may cause eye damage, even blindness.
|
Remedy #10: Blood
cholesterol.
High Cholesterol levels are an
indicator of early drought management by the
body. Cholesterol is a clay-like material that is poured in
the gaps of some cell membranes to safeguard them from
losing their vital water content to the osmotically more
powerful blood circulating in their vicinity.
Cholesterol, apart from being used
to manufacture nerve cell membranes and hormones, is also
used as a "shield" against water taxation of other vital
cells that would normally exchange water through their cell
membranes.
|
Remedy #11:
Depression, Loss of libido, Chronic fatigue syndrome
Lupus, Multiple
sclerosis, Muscular dystrophy.
|
These conditions may be caused
by prolonged chronic dehydration. If so, they will clear
up once the body becomes well and regularly
hydrated. In these conditions, exercising one's muscles
should be part of the treatment program.
The doctor who wrote this is
unknown although the knowledge is rather common. Is it
ALL completely true? Will simply drinking enough water
eventually cure all of the above conditions?
The point is, it WILL improve
your health, it IS free, and it IS the right thing to
do. And as long as you don't ignore your doctor's
advice (which by the way is to drink 8-10 8oz glasses of
water per day) there is absolutely no risk.
No risk, no cost, no travel,
definite improvements.
So what are you waiting on?
