Water is Everywhere Water is the most common organic compound present on our planet. It plays an extremely important role in shaping atmospheric phenomena and clim ate on Earth. Without it, life forms as we know them simply would not exist. The human body is composed of more than 75% of water and some body tissue consists of over 95% of water! That’s why it is so important that the water we consume for the proper functioning of our bodies is of the highest quality. An insufficient supply of water creates disturbances in the functioning of our bodies, has negative effects on our wellness and appearance, and accelerates the process of aging. Thickened blood does not circulate properly, and the body has difficulties expelling the toxic products of metabolic changes, which can cause gradual toxin build-up and other health problems such as: improper functioning of the nervous system, dehydration of organ tissue and disturbance of important physiological processes. Lack of water can cause even more serious consequences, including even death from poisoning of the body from the by-products of bodily food processing. Humans can survive without water for only three (3) to six (6) days. Theoretically, there is no food product which does not contain at least some water. It is a component in all seeds, vegetables, fruits, etc. Each of us, on average, should consume at least 1.5 to 2 liters (1.6 to 2.1 qts.) of water each day. This way we replenish water lost from our bodies due to urinating, sweating and breathing. Regular intake of water is also required for physiological processes taking place in our bodies. In fact, blood, lymph, and brain-core fluid are nothing but water combined with specific body cells, enzymes, mineral salts and other necessary substances.
Water - A New Perspective Many people think of water as a simple organic substance with chaotic structure. However, for many years scientists have been intrigued by its simplistic, yet complicated, nature. It has been proven that water forms pseudo-crystalline structures. This means that its molecules arrange themselves with each other in specific patterns. Is this important to us as human beings? It is very important for us as to how water molecules are arranged with each other. A different arrangement of water molecules makes water more or less beneficial to our bodies. Perhaps it is still the same organic compound, but it no longer has the same physical properties. This feature is analogous to the relationship between graphite, coal and diamond, all of which contain the common element carbon (C). Graphite and coal are black and brittle, but diamond (same carbon C) is clear and is also the hardest natural mineral known to man. In diamond, carbon atoms form a regular crystalline structure, as compared to chaotic structure in graphite and coal. The different arrangem ent of atoms or molecules provides different physical properties in substances having the same (or similar) chem ical composition. It shows that this rule also applies to water. Research conducted worldwide has proven without doubt that the inter-arrangem ent of water molecules plays a tremendous role in the physiology of any living organism. Historically, we have placed much emphasis on water’s clarity, purity and mineral salt content. Now, we are finally beginning to understand just how important the arrangement of molecules is to the properties of water that we rely upon for our vitality.
Water Memory Depending on where water comes from, it will have different properties. Variables having influence on water molecule configuration (structure) include: electromagnetic fields, pressure, temperature, and other chemical substances. They can make water either a “life saving” or even a poisonous compound. These variables exert lesser or more permanent impacts through changes in water properties. This phenomenon is called “Water Memory”. Each of us can usually notice a difference in taste between tap water, mineral water and water from a mountain stream. Of course, it can be said that the difference in taste between these three (3) types of water depends on several mineral com pounds dissolved in the water, but it certainly will not determ ine the water memory’s energy level (weight). Nevertheless, this water property phenomenon is more frequently used in reputable scientific healing methods. Methods based on using water memory can be compared to the process of recording a videotape. Using visual senses or more accurate physical measurements we cannot distinguish recorded tape from blank tape. From a chemical perspective, a recorded tape has the same chemical com position as a blank tape. The difference between these two (2) tapes lies in the information contained in a recorded tape. It is not necessary to explain the importance of the information recorded. A computer disk with specific instructions or information can make a computer “come to life” or it can even “kill” it. Many scientists believe and openly admit that medicine based on the principles of chem istry will begin to yield rapidly to informative medicine, which is based on physics and information.
The Wonders Of Water
by Dr. Fereydoon Batamanghelidj, M.D. from www.watercure.com
Dr. Batamanghelidj's research revealed that unintentional dehydration produces stress, chronic pains and many degenerative diseases. Dry mouth is not the only sign of dehydration and waiting to get thirsty is wrong. Medicine has based its understanding that it is solid matter in the body that regulates all functions of the body. He has explained scientifically at the molecular level that it is water that regulates all functions of the body including functions of solid matter. 75% of our bodies are composed of water. The brain is 85% water. It is water that energizes and activates the solid matter. If you don’t take enough water, some functions of the body will suffer. Dehydration produces system disturbances. When Dr. B. uses the word "water cure", he is referring to curing dehydration with water. Water prevents and helps to cure heartburn. Heartburn is 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. 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. Water prevents and helps to cure arthritis. Rheumatoid joint pain - arthritis - is a signal of water shortage in the painful joint. It can affect the young as well as the old. The use of pain-killers does not cure the problem, but exposes the person to further damage from pain medications. Intake of water and sm all amounts of salt will cure this problem. Water prevents and helps to cure back pain. Low back pain and ankylosing arthritis of the spine are signs of water shortage in the spinal colum n and discs - the water cushions that support the weight of the body. These conditions should be treated with increased water intake - not a commercial treatment, but a very effective one. Not recognizing arthritis and low back pain as signs of dehydration in the joint cavities and treating them with pain-killers, 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 deform ities of the limbs. Pain medications have their own life-threatening complications. Water prevents and helps to cure angina. Heart pain - angina - is 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 m edications. Medical supervision is prudent. However, increased water intake is angina's cure. Water prevents and helps to cure migraines. Migraine headache is a sign of water need by the brain and the eyes. It will totally clear up if dehydration is prevented from establishing in the body. The type of dehydration that causes migraine might eventually cause inflam mation of the back of the eye and possibly loss of eye sight. Water prevents and helps to cure colitis. Colitis pain is a signal of water shortage in the large gut. It is associated with constipation because the large intestine constricts to squeeze the last drop of water from the excrements - thus the lack of water lubrication. Not recognizing colitis pain as a sign of dehydration will cause persistent constipation. Later in life, it will cause fecal impacting: it can cause diverticulitis, hemorrhoids and polyps, and appreciably increases the possibility of developing cancer of the colon and rectum. Water and salt prevent and helps to cure asthma. Asthma, which also affects 14 million children and kills several thousand of them every year, is a complication of dehydration in the body. It is caused by the drought management programs of the body. In asthma free passage of air is obstructed so that water does not leave the body in the form of vapor the winter steam. Increased water intake will prevent asthma attacks. Asthmatics need also to take more salt to break the mucus plugs in the lungs that obstruct the free flow of air in and out of the air sacs.
Not recognizing asthma as the indicator of dehydration in the body of a growing child not only will sentence many thousands of children to die every year, but will permit irreversible genetic damage to establish in the remaining 14 million asthmatic children. Water prevents and helps to cure 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 that diffuse water into vital cells. As part of the mechanism of reverse osmosis, when water from the blood 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 and some salt intake will bring blood pressure back to normal! 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 disease. It will cause brain damage and neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease. Water prevents and helps to cure early 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 and some salt will reverse adult-onset diabetes in its early stages. Not recognizing adult-onset diabetes as a complication of dehydration will, in time, cause massive damage to the blood vessels all over the body. It will cause eventual loss of the toes, feet and legs from gangrene. It will cause eye damage, even blindness. Water lowers 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 against 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.
