Body's Many Cries For Water
by Dr. F. Batmanghelidj
You are not sick, you're thirsty.
Your body has many different thirst signals, and a dry mouth is not
a reliable indicator of your water needs. There are more reliable ones
for you to understand when your body is calling for water.
In this way you can prevent, treat, and cure a variety of conditions
of ill health, at no cost, with nature's miracle medicine: Water.
The author (a medical doctor) believes that chronic dehydration is
the cause of many conditions including asthma, allergies, arthritis,
angina, migraine headaches, hypertension, raised cholesterol, chronic
fatigue syndrome, multiple sclerosis, depression, and diabetes in the
elderly.
This book explains how much water you need to drink daily to stay healthy,
and why tea, coffee, and sodas are not good substitutes for water.
A preventative and self-educational manual, for those who prefer to
adhere to the logic of the natural and simple in medicine.

What's Wrong with Our Drinking Water?
Our human bodies are nearly seventy percent water and the salinity
of our extracellular fluids is approximately that of ocean water.
Everyday, water escapes from your lungs, kidneys, bowels and skin.
We lose approximately 2-3 quarts of water daily, and this must be
replenished.
What happens if we don't? Headaches, dizziness, lethargy, muscle
cramps, loss of appetite, depression, and brain fog. When you become
dehydrated, your body and brain become sluggish, your blood thickens
and your heart works harder.
Water is also essential to the functioning of your digestive tract.
Too little water and you've got mild constipation. Even if you are
taking lots of good fiber like bran and flaxseed, you need water to
keep it moving. If your intestinal transit time (the time it takes
for food to enter and leave your body) slows down, then more toxins
are retained. Higher levels of toxic waste products in the bowel,
lymph, and bloodstream is a proven contributing factor to many of
the above mentioned complaints as well as fibromyalgia, arthritis,
eczema, psoriasis, and chronic fatigue.
