brilliant book explaining how a large proportion of long-term "diseases"
are in fact due to dehydration, ie lack of water. The author has treated
thousands of patients successfully with just water, and explains in
great detail the countless tasks that water performs in the body.
Tea & coffee & juices etc etc do not count as water; in order
to remain healthy we should drink 2 litres of pure water per day.
In one section amusingly entitled "A salt-free diet is utterly
stupid", Batmanghelidj points out that salt is vital for efficient
bodily function, and that the actual problem is lack of water to transport
the salt (and natural sea salt should be used, not cheap industrial/supermarket
salt). | Living Energies by Callum Coats |
