YOUR BODIES MANY CRIES FOR WATER - YOU ARE NOT SICK, YOU ARE THIRSTY!
-Dr. F. Batmanghelidj
www.watercure.com
This book explains how each of the common ailments
(asthma, depression, angina, overeating, high blood pressure and cholesterol,
diabetes, headaches, etc.) can be caused by dehydration. For example,
lower back pain, he explains, may be caused because our spinal vertebrae
"depend on different hydraulic properties of water stored in the
disc core. [The water] is not only a lubricant for the contact surfaces,
it is held in the disc core within the intervertebral space and supports
the compression weight of the upper part of the body." The books
illustrations help clarify his explanations making them easy to understand.
He says "that once dehydration sets in, all parts of the body begin
to suffer. The intervertebral discs and their joints are the first in
line. The 5th lumbar disc is affected in 95 percent of cases". For
the first time I understand the extent to which the body is a system dependent
on water, and the progression of damage once our body is water deprived.
