Water the Ultimate Cure
Water is the stuff of life. The most dominant element on our planet. It is so crucial, that its presence on another planet is the single most exciting clue scientists can find in their search for life. Yet, we take our water for granted and overlook its essential role in our health. This simple compound of three atoms makes up 67% of our body weight. A 2% decrease results in fatigue. A 10% drop causes significant problems and greater losses can be fatal. Good hydration cushions bones and joints, transports nutrients, flushes toxins, regulates body temperature, and empowers the body's natural processes of healing.

It is estimated that more than 30% of senior Americans are dehydrated. Water deprivation causes a host of ailments, most notably metabolic dysfunction, constipation, fatigue, and even heart attack. It is no coincidence that the fountain of youth was thought to be overflowing with water. - Dr. Ronald Klatz, MD, Pres. American Academy of Anti Aging Medicine You are not sick, you are thirsty! - Dr. F. Batmanghelidj, MD., author of Your Body's Many Cries for Water

From the Author
"The human body is like an envelope encasing 20 trillion living cells. Each cell swims in a fluid of salty water. All proteins, minerals, vitamins, fats, and other molecules are suspended in that water. Water is not just present in every cell, it is essential to its survival. Good hydration provides healthy cell repair and regeneration. An improperly hydrated cell is weakened and more susceptible to infection and alteration (malignancy). We humans walk through life carrying around approximately 10-13 gallons of water. A deficiency of only 10% can lead to chronic health complaints. Subtle dehydration is alleged to afflict 30% 50% of Americans. Water cushions bones and joints, transports nutrients, flushes toxins, regulates body temperature, and empowers the body's natural healing process. You cannot achieve optimum health without accommodating your bodies many needs for water."
