Water, water, water

"Once you understand how the human body works, the wonderful simplicity of water as a free and permanently available choice of medication for so many health problem begins to make sense."

If you only ever read one book on health and making the most of yours, choose one of Dr F. Batmanghelidj's books. "Water and Salt" or "Your Bodies Many Cries for Water". I have found these to be excellent, foundational tools for all health concerns.

Following this simple advice can be life changing. It can affect your mood, your ability to cope, your quality of sleep, your skin, your clarity of mind and your general feeling of wellbeing.

In the book "Water and Salt", he lists a huge number of illnesses and diseases that can be dramatically influenced with these simple tools, including Asthma and Allergy, stomach problems, hernia, pain, obesity, depression, high blood pressure, cholesterol, cancer, headaches, diabetes, autoimmune diseases and alzheimer's disease. Many of these diseases have their basis in dehydration. "Obesity, depression and cancer are three of the labels we in medicine have created to describe the killer process of persistent unintentional dehydration in the body" (Water and Salt, page 35).

But read the book carefully or look at the website www.watercure.com, because you must use a pure salt and a pure water. Table salt, for example, is extremely toxic to the body. It is "not real salt" (page 37).

These are wonderful books and good information. Enjoy!

Be well,
