 Water for health August 23, 2008

Fereydoon Batmanghelidj was born in Tehran, Iran, in 1931. He graduated from St. Mary's Hospital Medical School of London University, where he studied under Sir Alexander Fleming. In 1979, he was sent to the Evin Prison when the Iranian Revolution broke out. Charges were leveled against him and he was scheduled to be executed, however, it was realized that he was useful as a resident doctor among the prisoners, so his execution was delayed. According to numerous writings by Dr. Batmanghelidj, he discovered the medicinal value of water during his prison stay by treating inmates with water because medication was not available. It was from these experiences that he gained an understanding of water. His methods have been deemed controversial by some, but others have claimed to benefit from his treatment methods.
The main idea of Dr. Batmanghelidj's way of healthy life is to upkeep the desired amount of water in the organism. He gives the overview of substances that decrease and increase the quantity of water in the body. The substances covered are alcohol, tea, coffee, salt, sweeteners and so on. He gives examples of how the lack of water harms various organs and various deceases, including AIDS. Some examples are doubtful, but traditional health care practitioners approve some of Dr. Batmanghelidj's assertions about water.
I personally do not agree with all of the Dr. Batmanghelidj's statements that water can heal every decease. I did drink a lot of pure water before reading Dr. Batmanghelidj's books, and I also follow his advices about water (I did even heal some of my deceases with water), but I'm sure that in many cases you should not refrain from applying to professional medical care just because you drink enough water. You should not try to heal every disease with just water.
A Must Read August 23, 2008
So glad I finally read this book! Everyone touts "drink 8 glasses of water a day" but no one has ever explained why in such a way that I agreed it was worth the effort. This book does it. Unfortunately, it is fairly technical. I love having the scientific/physiological reasoning, but wish it was dummied down into a little more plain language for the average reader. That aside, everyone should read this book! I think the reviewers who are disappointed might have expected something more than a recommendation to drink water and add some salt to their diet. So yes, the punchline isn't a wow, but the supporting facts (though a little hard to get through) make the argument to drink more water phenomenal.
 Drink Some Water! August 1, 2008
Yes, pure clean water is good for your health.
But reading this book gives you the idea that it will cure all your problems.
Many of the suggestions in the book are helpful, such as, if you have allergies, drink more water. Our bodies can also be strained if we drink too much water.
Overall, this book will help you get very clear and aware of your bodies needs for thirst.

This book is extremely informative with information that if followed will give true health to your body. I now start the day with a quart of warm water and a bit of Celtic salt and have seen the increase in energy and well being. I am so thankful I found "Your Bodies Many Cries for Water" and now this book.
