WATER: A Revolutionary Natural Way to Prevent Illness and Restore Good Health
It
is beginning to be accepted that many illnesses which today plague
countless millions of people worldwide spring from a simple,
unrecognised cause - we don't drink enough water. This is the medical
discovery that Iranian-born Dr Batmangheldj outlines in this book.

As
a result of extensive research into the role of water in the body, the
author, a medical doctor, believes that he has found chronic
dehydration to be the cause of many conditions including asthma,
allergies, arthritis, angina, migraine headaches, hypertension, raised
cholesterol, chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple sclerosis, depression,
and diabetes in the elderly.
According
to Dr. Batmanghelidj, the body possesses many different thirst signals.
A dry mouth is not a reliable indicator of your body's water needs. He
describes a variety of more reliable ones, and helps you learn to
understand when your body is calling for water. In this way, he claims
you can prevent, treat, and cure a variety of conditions of ill health,
at no cost, with what he calls nature's miracle medicine: Water. The
author explains how much water one needs to drink a day to stay
healthy, and why tea, coffee, and sodas are not good substitutes for
water.
The Washington Times
When
Dr. Batmanghelidj thinks of a glass of water, he doesn't think of it as
half full or half empty. He thinks of it as brimming over with the
essential fluid of life. He thinks of it as the solvent of our ills and
the deliverer of ripe old age. He thinks of it as the wave of the
future.

This
book by a highly respected M.D. explodes a medical atom bomb--An
entirely new paradigm for the cause and prevention of many degenerative
diseases! You owe it to yourself to read this incredible book!
The Connection Newspaper
The
average American is woefully uninformed about water. Most people think
they drink enough water, but they don't. Dr. Batmanghelidj's book will
create a tide of opinion about the wonders of water.
Townsend Letter for Doctors
How
like 'monkey mind' to bounce about, tying itself in knots with complex
solutions while ignoring the profound significance of the simple!
Circumstance helped Dr. Batmanghelidj perceive the elegant significance
of one factor we too often overlook: water.
Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology
It
is claimed that fish probably have no awareness of the presence of
water; this book shows we may have done little better. Mostly we have
treated symptoms, and often wrongly at that, but masterpieces come into
being to produce paradigm shifts. If we learn this one, we may arrest
the course of our patients in their all-too-rapid going the way of all
flesh.

The
following excerpt, from Chapter 2 of Your Body's Many Cries for Water,
describes the vital role water plays in the healthy functioning of the
human body.
The
new scientific truth about the human body that will empower people to
become practitioners of preventive medicine for themselves is as
follows: It is the solvent the water content that regulates the
activity of all the solutes (solids) that are dissolved in it. Every
function of the body is monitored and pegged to the efficient flow of
water. "Water distribution" is the only way of making sure that not
only an adequate amount of water, but also its transported elements
(hormones, chemical messengers and nutrients) reach the vital organs.
In turn, every organ that produces a substance to be made available to
the rest of the body will release it into the "flowing water." Adequate
water intake, therefore, achieves paramount importance.
This
new paradigm permits an incorporation of the "fourth dimension of time"
into scientific research. It will facilitate an understanding of the
damaging effect of an establishing dehydration that persists for some
time. It will make it possible to forecast the physiological events
that will lead to disease states in later years, including what at
present appear to be genetic disorders. It will transform the present
"shot-in-the-dark, symptom-treating" approach to the practice of
medicine into a scientifically accurate medical art; it will make
preventive forecasting possible. It will establish excellent health,
and reduce health care costs to individuals and to any society that
fosters its spread.
Since
water shortage in different areas of the body will manifest varying
symptoms, signals, and complications now labeled as diseases, people
may think that water cannot be offered as a natural solution. Water
curing so many diseases? No way!
Thinking
thus, they shut their mind to the new possibility of preventing,even
curing, so many "diseases" that are dehydration-produced. It does not
occur to them that the only remedy for conditions that occur when the
body begins to get dehydrated is water and nothing else. A number of
sample testimonials are published in the book to open the eyes of
skeptics to the fact that the greatest health discovery of all time is
that water is a natural medication for a variety of health conditions.
The New York Times "Science Watch"
"It
started with a patient suffering unbearable ulcer pain one late night.
The Doctor treated him with 500 cubic centimeter of water. His pain
became less severe and then disappeared completely. The physician was
so impressed that he prescribed two glasses of water six times a day
and achieved a "clinical" cure of the ulcer attack."
The European, London, December 1995
"The
water principle has a convincing logic but turns much of current
medical practice on its head. Does it work? You only have to turn on
the tap to find out."
Laurence A. Malone, M.D., Ph.D., Dean for Academic Affairs, The Learning Center for College Sciences, Ohio
"Dr.
Batman's books are full of common sense and truthful medical advice.
His suggested treatment of diseases goes to the roots, the cause of it
and anyone who is fortunate enough to read them won't be disappointed
with their purchase."
Paul Harvey
"One man's solution to soaring health costs: water."
Dick Gregory
"Thanks to Dr. Batmanghelidj. I put your book next to the Bible and I read them both."
About the Author
Dr.
Fereydoon Batmanghelidj was born in Iran in 1931. He attended school in
Scotland, and received his medical training at London University's St.
Mary's Hospital Medical School. Upon completion of his studies, he had
the privilege of being selected as a house doctor in his own medical
school. Dr. Batmanghelidj practiced medicine in England before
returning to Iran where he helped develop hospitals and health centers.
When
the revolutions broke out in 1979, Dr. Batmanghelidj, as a member of a
prominent family, was thrown in jail. While serving as a political
prisoner in Evin prison, he discovered the healing power of water.
One
night, Dr. Batmanghelidj had to treat a fellow prisoner who was
suffering severe peptic ulcer pain. With no conventional medication at
his disposal, Dr. Batmanghelidj gave the man, who was crippled with
pain, two glasses of water. Within eight minutes, his pain disappeared.
He was instructed to drink two glasses of water every three hours, and
he became absolutely pain-free for the four remaining months he was in
prison. Without using any medication, he was cured.
During
the 31 months of his imprisonment, Dr. Batmanghelidj treated more than
3,000 peptic ulcer sufferers with water alone. He conducted extensive
research during his prison stay into the medicinal effects of water,
and discovered water could prevent, relieve and cure many painful
degenerative diseases. He found Evin prison an "ideal stress
laboratory," and chose to stay an extra four months in prison to
complete his research into the relationship of dehydration, stress, and
disease, despite being offered an early release. A report of his
findings was smuggled out of Iran and became the editorial article in
the June 1983 issue of the Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, and
was reported on by the New York Times Science section.
After
his release from prison in 1982, Dr. Batmanghelidj escaped from Iran
and came to America, where he continues his research into the role of
water in the human body and the damaging effects of dehydration on
human health. His studies show that, if we maintain a healthy lifestyle
of drinking plenty of water on a regular basis, we will be able to
enjoy good health and avoid diseases and painful conditions that
require pharmaceutical drugs and expensive medical procedures.
Dr.
Batmanghelidj now dedicates his time promoting public awareness of the
healing power of water. His book Your Body's Many Cries for Water, has
helped hundreds of thousands of people live happier, healther, lives.
