Health Benefit of Water: Benefit of Drinking Water

Benefit of Drinking Water

Discover why Drinking Water is so important for your life and health...

The reason you need to drink water appears obvious, but do you know the details? Let's take a closer look inside your body:

The Human Body and Water

cellWater is vital to your health. Every part of your body is made up of cells.

Protoplasm, the basic material of living cells, is made of fats, carbohydrates, proteins, salts, and  similar elements combined with water. 

Water acts as a solvent, transporting, combining,  and chemically breaking down these substances.

In a normal case, minerals and micro elements  pass through the cell membrane to the nucleus by electro-osmosis.

 A cell exchanges elements with the rest of the body by electrolysis.

The body needs electrolytes (salt minerals like sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate) for basic body functions.

bad cellIf your body loses water, it loses the use of these minerals.
 Otto Warburg, winner of Nobel Prize, made an important discovery in 1933. He found that in the  case of an abnormal or sick cell, the direction of the exchange reverses. The cell to empties  and dies.

So, we need to drink water in order to keep our cells hydrated,  to keep our body’s electrochemical balance to stay alive...

 The quality of our internal water also plays an important role  in the process. If the water is too acidic or too alkaline, electrolysis cannot happen properly and we become sick.

The Practical he Health Benefits of Drinking  Water:

The benefit of drinking water in elimination of body wastes and toxins

Our organs are made of cells. The cells are made of and live in a water solution. Our blood also is mostly water and serves to dissolve, process and transport nutrients, and eliminate waste materials.

" In the case of dehydration,  the blood becomes thick and saturated, not being able to  flow properly. The excess of toxins must then be stored within the interstitial space surrounding the cells pending elimination for life to continue,  and over time this space begins to resemble a toxic waste site - an acidic medium. Since the cells cannot have the proper oxygenation and nutrition  they begin to change in form and function in order to survive.
The end stage of this process results in the cells not resembling normal cells at all, and they continue living by means of fermentation rather than the normal oxidative mechanisms. - This is when the oncologist will tell you that you have CANCER" – J.H. Tilden, Toxemia.

A major benefit  of drinking water is maintaining the body Ph balance in order to prevent and cure disease...

Dr. Sang Whang, the author of the Reverse Aging book,  says the aging process is basically the accumulation of acidic  wastes built up within the body...

" This book is the first common sense scientific  explanation of the aging process and ‘how to’ reverse it. The  nutrients that we deliver to our cells burn with oxygen and become acidic  wastes after giving energy to our body. The body tries its best to get  rid of these acidic wastes through urine and perspiration. Unfortunately,  our lifestyle, diet and environment prevent our body to get rid of all  the wastes that it generates. Gradually, these leftover acidic wastes  accumulate somewhere within our body. Since acid coagulates blood, the  blood circulation near the waste areas becomes poor, causing all kinds  of degenerative diseases to develop..."

The benefit of drinking water in lubricating internal organs and joints

Water keeps our organs and joints moist. This permits the passage of nutrients and wastes between the  and blood vessels and the rest of the body.

"  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 painkillers does not cure the problem, but exposes the person  to further damage from pain medications. Intake of water and small  amounts of salt will cure this problem.

Low Back Pain and Ankylosing Arthritis of the Spine are signs of water shortage in the spinal column 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 deformities of the limbs. Pain medications have  their own life-threatening complications." -- Dr F Batmanghelidj MD

The benefit of drinking water for skin health:

Skin health is just the reflection of our internal health. Any dermatologist  can tell what part of your body is affected just by looking at your skin.

 Hydration and detoxification starts inside and continues to the outside.

 So, keeping a beautiful healthy looking skin is   a side benefit of drinking water.

The benefit of drinking water for eye health

Recently I had an eye examination. The doctor told me that our cornea  is 80% water. Working long hours on the computer makes the eyes dry. Just closing the eyes for a few seconds every hour  and blinking frequently allows liquid from the tear glands  to moisturize and lubricate the cornea. He also recommended  regular drinking of water for good eye health...

 (I was happy to hear  this... My optometrist is Dr. Charles Lu PhD in Vision Science-Halifax,  Nova Scotia.)

The benefit of drinking water to lose weight

Water plays a key role in the metabolic breakdown of proteins and carbohydrates.

 That's why neutralizing (burning) fat and assisting in weight  loss is also an important benefit of drinking water.

The benefit of drinking water in reducing water retention

If your body has a tendency to retain fluids, it might seem logical  to drink less water. However, the opposite is  true. To lose the excess fluids, you  may need to drink MORE water. Dehydration can cause the body  to retain fluid that will be released as you drink more water.  The goal is to keep lots of fluid flowing through your body. To do this, drink more water while reducing your intake  of dietary sodium.

" Contrary to popular belief, drinking  water can actually help you shed excess water weight. When  water is in short supply, the body, thinking there's a shortage, begins  hoarding it. This water is stored in cellular spaces, in order to keep  them alive - as seen above. In other words, your skin starts looking  soft and puffy... If water retention is a chronic problem, it may be  because there's too much salt in the diet. The higher the sodium intake,  the more the body tries to retain water (to dilute its concentration).  Either reduce salt intake or drink more water."
-- University of Maine

The other benefits of drinking water 

  • Transport of oxygen to cells,
  • Maintain muscle tone, and
  • Regulate of body temperature.

What Causes of Dehydration?

The most common cause of dehydration is the failure to drink, but there are also other causes for the loss of water…

  • Illnesses like pneumonia, a cold the flu, or diabetes insipidus. 
  • Eating too  much protein. The kidneys excrete too much water. Urine output is responsible for the dehydration  in this case.
  • Sweating.   Take care during hot  and humid weather.

Should I Drink Water or other beverages?

Soda, diet soda, coffee, tea,  or alcohol do not replace water,  especially if the beverage is a diuretic. (Alcohol actually produces dehydration). If you don't like the taste  of plain water, try putting lemon, lime or an orange slice in your glass.

 "  The consumption of soft drinks, like land-mine terrain, is riddled with hazards. We as practitioners and advocates of a healthy life-style recognize that consuming even as little as one or two sodas per day  is undeniably connected to a myriad of pathologies." says Judith Valentine, PhD. - Read more on the Child  Development page.

"Your Body's Many Cries for Water"

is the complete book of water healing.

"The countless names of illnesses do not really matter. What does matter is that they all come from the same root cause... too much tissue acid waste in the body!"

    Says Theodore A. Baroody, N.D., D.C., Ph.D. - the author of the remarkable book "Alkalize or Die" (more about this on the Nutrition Page)

How is your acidity level?

One of the first goals on the way to great health is to restore the body's pH to the alkaline range.

Test your
acid/alkaline level.

PH test paper

The state of the body's acid/alkaline balance can be easily measured by testing the urine or saliva using PH test paper icon.

"In a state of dehydration, body cells cannot assimilate nutrients and remove waste" -

"The quality of the water we drink is equally as important as the amount. If water already contains chlorine and other chemicals‚ it has less of an ability to carry toxins out of our body. If we consume water that contains traces of synthetic chemicals‚ then we force our liver and kidneys to be the filter... ultimately damaging or destroying two of our most vital organs. With an abundant intake of clean‚ healthy water we allow our body to perform all the healing processes that it is naturally capable of."
