PURE WATER-NATURE'S CLEANSING/HEALING DRINK
Weigh yourself, divide your weight in half then divide 8 into that number. That is how many 8 ounce cups of water your individual body requires on a daily basis. Example: If one weighs 120 lbs. - 120 divided in half = 60. 8 divided into 60= 7-8, so one who weighs 120lbs. requires between 7 and 8 - 8 oz. glasses of water daily, or about (4) 16 oz. bottles. Spread your water consumption out through the day, drinking it slowly and steadily. Drinking too much water in too short of time too quickly can actually be proven deadly. Your consumption and elimination of water should stay pretty even in terms of rate and amount. Flooding your system can cause shock to your cells and as a result your insides can drown. Remember, the key to health is balance. It is important to drink the amount of water your body needs daily so as to keep your system nourished and clean. Also water helps to flush out fluid and fat.
Next to oxygen, water is the second most important consumption vital to living entities and one of the prime elements responsible for life on earth. Water makes up over 2/3rds of the planet and your body consists of approximately 70% water. It circulates through the land just as it does through the human body, transporting, dissolving, and replenishing nutrients and organic matter, while carrying away waste material. Water is the primary ingredient in all bodily fluids, including your blood supply, lymph, saliva, glandular secretions, and cerebrospinal fluid. It constitutes 92% of your blood, 92% of your cerebrospinal fluid, and nearly 98% of your intestinal, gastric, saliva, and pancreatic juices. The average 150 lb. person contains about 5 quarts of blood in comparison to containing around 80 quarts of water. Just to give you a small sampling of the diverse functions of this precious element: it helps with digestion of food, helps to maintain proper body temperature, gives lungs moisture to breathe, helps prevent pain in your body, helps keep blood pressure normal, helps lower cholesterol, and helps with depression, loss of libido, and chronic fatigue.
Your body loses about 2-3 liters of water a day via elimination, urination, perspiration, and respiration and this amount may increase during illness, high performance, exercise, pregnancy, and nursing. It can't be stressed enough how essential this liquid of life is to your well-being and how crucial it is that you replace the water you lose on a daily basis to maintain your health. Water provides for the form of your 100 trillion cells and is involved in all bodily and cellular functions; therefore, it is of utmost importance to keep your body hydrated by sufficient daily water replacement in order for it to function efficiently. Dehydration results in deficient cell activity, which leads to illness and disease. Just because a beverage is liquid, does not mean that it is hydrating. Coffee, tea, alcohol, soft, and sugary drinks are not only diuretics, but they also draw water from the body's reserves, which classifies them as dehydrators. Every 6 ozs, of these type beverages that you consume, requires you to drink an additional 10-12 ozs. (double the amount) of water to make up for the loss they induce. Signs of dehydration include constipation, headaches, indigestion, weight gain, fluid retention, and colored and pungent urine. Illnesses associated with dehydration include colitis, kidney stones, bladder and urinary tract infections, just to name a few.
Do not wait until your mouth is dry or you are thirsty to drink water. You need to acquire the habit of drinking it even when you don't feel like it and eventually your body will become accustomed to drinking it on a daily, regular basis. Since water is the second most essential element for life to exist on this earth and it is critical for the structure and function of your body inside and out, it is imperative to make sure the water you drink is pure, distilled, or treated with reversed osmosis. Water constitutes, regulates, flows through, cleanses, and helps nourish and heal every single part of your body, but drinking water that contains poisons, toxins, chemicals, inorganic minerals, and other contaminants can pollute, clog up and turn to stone in every part of your body; therefore, by consuming the wrong types of water you could end up doing more harm than good to your system, in the long run. Stone can clog and block arteries just like fat; hence, drinking water with inorganic minerals that your body cannot utilize, can cause heart disease. A way to test your water is to pour it into a pan and either let it sit in the sun and evaporate or boil it until it evaporates. After all the water vanishes, if there is a film, residue, or deposits left in the pan, your water is not pure. If there are no changes to the pan, after the water vanishes, then your water is fine.
