Water: Nature's Vitality and Adequate Water Intake

According to Dr. F. Batmanghelidj, the world's foremost authority on the relationship of water to health, most people are chronically dehydrated and aren't even aware of it. In his book Your Body's Many Cries for Water, Dr. Batmanghelidj points out that the body's most recognizable thirst signal, "dry mouth" is "the last outward sign of extreme dehydration". Other signs of being chronically dehydrated include fatigue, respiratory problems, and various chronically dehydrated symptoms a web page where we list the warning signs.

Are You Drinking Nine Glasses of Water a Day?
Many health practitioners now recommend that you drink six to eight glasses of water a day, but Dr. Batmanghelidj recommends that you drink half an ounce of water for every pound of your weight. This means that a 150-pound person should drink about nine glasses of water a day.

Purified Drinking Water is what Your Body is Thirsty For
Be sure the drinking water you drink is pure and filtered - not chlorinated or fluoridated. Distilled water is not recommended, since it is devoid of necessary minerals and can actually leach the healthy minerals from your body.

Increase Your Water Intake Today
Initially, as you increase your water intake, you may experience a more frequent need to urinate. This will not last for more than a few days, after which your body should adjust to the increased intake of water.

Your Body's Healthy Acid - Alkaline Balance
Drinking water adequately does not mean increasing your intake of coffee, soft drinks, commercial teas, milk, processed juices, or alcohol. Not only do these substances actually serve to further increase dehydration, but they can significantly impair your body's healthy acid-alkaline balance.
