In this day and age, the last thing we’d think would be beneficial toward maintaining health and healing ailments is water. However, the truth is that simple, everyday problems from heartburn, to quite serious disease such as diabetes and arthritis can be stabilized, and even possibly cured by consuming one of the world’s most powerful natural resources.
Heartburn, for example, is a signal of water shortage in the upper part of your gastrointestinal tract. This is just one of the major signals your body is giving out to let you know it needs hydration. When we in-take medications to help correct the problem, we are actually only masking it, thus adding further to our body’s distress calls for water. In time, these medications will also generate mass inflammation of the stomach and small intestine, eventually causing cancerous cells to grow in the intestinal tract, as well as in the liver and pancreas.
Low back pain and rheumatoid arthritis are also signs of water shortage in the spinal column, disks and joints. Again, the use of pain-killer medications in these situations does not cure the problem, but does expose the individual to further internal damage caused by the medication in the long run and may even cause osteoporosis when the cartilage cells in the joints have died. This continued treatment will eventually cause the spine and limbs to become deformed, adding to pain and need for surgery in the future.
Adult onset type II diabetes is another way the human body has adjusted to severe dehydration. Your brain needs an adequate water supply in motion; therefore, the release of insulin is repressed to prevent insulin from pushing water into all the body’s cells. In diabetes, only some cells get survival rations of water. Consequently, if a person with diabetes does not in-take the proper hydration needed, in time this will cause mass damage to blood vessels all over the body and may eventually cause loss of lower limbs from gangrene. It may also cause eye damage, even blindness.
As you can see, there are many ways the body sends out its distress call for water. There are headaches, back aches, asthma, diabetes, arthritis, heartburn, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, severe stomach issues, the list goes on. It’s true that the human body is an amazing, adaptive piece of work; however, if you are not providing it with the essential tools needed to perform at its best, it will eventually give out on you. It is no mystery that water is absolutely vital for every single process in the human body, as well as for life in general. The real question is, how invested are you in your body? We only have one while we are on this planet and I hope that each and every person will make a conscious decision to become more attentive to the things we are permitting to enter, and not allowing to enter for that matter.
