Моје је да коња доведем до воде. На њему (коњу) је да пије ту воду или не!

Кад је већ реч о води ево јдног инересантног мисљења о томе. Нажалист немам првод. Извињавам се онима који не говоре енглески.
Можда би неко ко боље барата енглеским могао ово да преведе.


Benefit of Drinking Water

Discover why Drinking Water is so important for your life and health...

The reason you need to drink water appears obvious, but do you know the details? Let's take a closer look inside your body:

Benefit of Drinking Water for the Human Body
Every part of your body is made up of cells.

Protoplasm, the basic material of living cells, is made of fats, carbohydrates, proteins, salts, and similar elements combined with water.

Water acts as a solvent, transporting, combining, and chemically breaking down these substances.

A cell exchanges elements with the rest of the body by electrolysis, and in a normal case, minerals and micro elements pass through the cell membrane to the nucleus by electro-osmosis.

The body needs electrolytes (minerals like sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate) for its basic functions.

In case of water shortage, the electrolyzes cannot happen and our cells dry out and die.

Therefore, in order to keep our cells hydrated, our body's electrochemical balance and stay alive we need water and salt.

Dr F. Batmanghelidj MD reminds us that the one of the first protocols for a patient upon hospitalization is an intravenous saline solution. Doctors are well aware that dehydration, second only to oxygen deprivation, robs life fastest.

Minor dehydration - not enough to kill- is both the result and the hidden cause of many illnesses. The inverse is also true. Good hydration is at the foundation of good health.

- Drink up now, because the price for administrating and intravenous saline water solution in the hospital is approximately $350.

You are not sick, you're thirsty!
Based on more than twenty years of clinical and scientific research into the role of health benefit of water for the body, Dr. F. Batmanghelidj MD, a pioneering physician and acclaimed author, shows how water - yes WATER! - can relieve a stunning range of medical conditions. Simply adjusting your fluid and salt intakes can help you treat and prevent dozens of diseases, avoid costly prescriptions drugs, and enjoy vibrant new health.

In his book: „Water: For Health, for Healing, for Life: You're Not Sick, You're Thirsty! ” Dr F. Batmanghelidj MD shows the crucial benefit of drinking water for our health.

From his perspective, most of so-called incurable diseases are nothing but labels given to various stages of drought. Here are only few of them:

Benefit of drinking water Rheumatoid Joint Pain and Arthritis:
Painful joints a signal of water shortage. It can affect the young as well as the old. The use of painkillers does not cure the problem, but exposes the person to further damage from pain medications. Intake of water and small amounts of salt will cure this problem.

Benefit of drinking water to prevent and treat Low Back Pain and Ankylosing Arthritis of the Spine are signs of water shortage in the spinal column and discs. These cushions that support the weight of the body, can be seriously damage by dehydration.
Benefit of drinking water to prevent a high level of Cholesterol
I had the occasion to advise a man in his early forties whose angiogram had revealed partial blockage of his coronary arteries. Tells Dr F. Batmanghelidj MD. I advised him not to have bypass surgery without first trying a conservative treatment for his condition. He agreed to adjust his daily water intake and to begin by taking two glasses of water exactly half an hour before every meal. I advised him to walk one hour in the morning and one hour in the evening (to start with, twenty minutes at the beginning, increasing gradually to one hour)
Three months later the man went to one of the famous centers in Houston for a final checkup and an assessment of his need for bypass surgery. His angiogram showed no sign of previous blockage. He no longer needed surgery.

· Benefit of drinking water to prevent Heart disease and stroke: hydration is essential to help prevent clogging of arteries and the heart and brain.

· Benefit of drinking water to prevent and treat Hypertension: hydration is crucial in treating it without using diuretics or medication

Benefit of drinking water to prevent Brain Damage
On average, the human brain weights 1.4 Kilograms (about 3 pounds). It is estimated that the brain consists of 85% water. The brain is extremely sensitive to water loss. It is said that the brain cannot tolerate even a 1% loss of water. If it were to be dehydrated to the point of being only 84% water for long, the brains would not function properly. (Remember that nerve cells in the brain are one-time-living units. They don't multiply like other cells in the body and don't regenerate). Dehydration can cause damage in the blood vessels in the brain, leading to bleedings and plaques, which are at the base of most neurological disorders like multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease and Alzenheimer's disease.

· Benefit of drinking water to prevent and treat Depression: hydration helps the body naturally replenish its supply of the neurotransmitter serotonin

· Benefit of drinking water to prevent and treat Sleep disorders: hydration is needed for the production of nature's sleep regulator, melatonin

· Benefit of drinking water to prevent and treat Lack of energy: water generates electrical and magnetic energy in every body cell, providing a natural power boost

· Benefit of drinking water to prevent and treat Attention Deficit: a well hydrated brain is continually energized to imprint new information in its memory banks.

Benefit of drinking water to prevent Osteoporosis
The strong bone formation is related to proper hydration and Dr F. Batmanghelidj MD believes that dehydration is responsible of the loss of calcium from our bones as we age.

Benefit of drinking water to prevent Cancer
Benefit of drinking water to prevent and treat Leukemia and Lymphoma: water normalizes the blood-manufacturing system that can aid in the prevention of many forms of cancer
Benefit of drinking water for skin health:
Dr F. Batmanghelidj MD shows that in a dehydrated state of the body, the first site for establishing water conservation is the skin.

Skin has the ability to perspire to cool and regulate body temperature. If there is dehydration, the water reserves in the skin may be used up without being replaced at the same rate as the water lost. thus, dehydration is a primary factor in the production of dry skin:

When the skin loses moisture it becomes prune-like
There is less capillary circulation to the skin area to give it the healthy color it should have.
To promote a healthier skin, adequate water intake is essential. If water does not reach the skin from the circulation at its base, the rate of skin repair will decrease, and dehydrated cells will cover the body.

This is one of the reasons why you often see young women with their skins already aged beyond their year; why you see middle-aged women with deep fur-rows  crow's feet— all over their faces. The face is most exposed to wind and the sun's rays, elements that enhance water loss from its surface. (Men hormones bring more circulation to the skin of the face)

- The ultimate stage is scleroderma: the skin becomes atrophied and begins to resemble a crocodile's. The good news is that at its early phase, scleroderma can be reversed by increasing water intake.

* The most common irritant to the skin is the detergent residue on washed clothes that are not well rinsed. The detergent can dissolve in sweat and cause contact dermatitis and even hives. Always double rinse anything you wash!

Benefit of drinking water in elimination of body wastes and toxins
Our organs are made of cells. The cells are made of and live in a water solution. Our blood also is mostly water and serves to dissolve, process and transport nutrients, and eliminate waste materials.

„In the case of dehydration, the blood becomes thick and saturated, not being able to flow properly. The excess of toxins must then be stored within the interstitial space surrounding the cells pending elimination for life to continue, and over time this space begins to resemble a toxic waste site - an acidic medium. Since the cells cannot have the proper oxygenation and nutrition they begin to change in form and function in order to survive.
The end stage of this process results in the cells not resembling normal cells at all, and they continue living by means of fermentation rather than the normal oxidative mechanisms. - This is when the oncologist will tell you that you have CANCER” - source: J.H. Tilden, Toxemia.

A major benefit of drinking water is maintaining the body PH balance in order to prevent and cure disease...
Dr. Sang Whang, the author of the Reverse Aging book, says the aging process is basically the accumulation of acidic wastes built up within the body...

„This book is the first common sense scientific explanation of the aging process and 'how to' reverse it. The nutrients that we deliver to our cells burn with oxygen and become acidic wastes after giving energy to our body. The body tries its best to get rid of these acidic wastes through urine and perspiration. Unfortunately, our lifestyle, diet and environment prevent our body to get rid of all the wastes that it generates. Gradually, these leftover acidic wastes accumulate somewhere within our body. Since acid coagulates blood, the blood circulation near the waste areas becomes poor, causing all kinds of degenerative diseases to develop...”

Benefit of drinking water for eye health
Recently I had an eye examination. The doctor told me that our cornea is 80% water. Working long hours on the computer makes the eyes dry. Just closing the eyes for a few seconds every hour and blinking frequently allows liquid from the tear glands to moisturize and lubricate the cornea. He also recommended regular drinking of water for good eye health...

(I was happy to hear this... My optometrist is Dr. Charles Lu PhD in Vision Science-Halifax, Nova Scotia.)

The benefit of drinking water to loše weight
Water plays a key role in the metabolic breakdown of proteins and carbohydrates.

That's why neutralizing (burning) fat and assisting in weight loss is also an important benefit of drinking water.

Benefit of drinking water in reducing water retention
If your body has a tendency to retain fluids, it might seem logical to drink less water. However, the opposite is true. To loše the excess fluids, you may need to drink MORE water. Dehydration can cause the body to retain fluid that will be released as you drink more water. The goal is to keep lots of fluid flowing through your body. To do this, drink more water along with salt intake.

Other benefits of drinking water
Transport of oxygen to cells,
Maintain muscle tone, and
Regulate of body temperature.
Turn on the tap... and reap the benefits of drinking water - one of the greatest health discoveries of all time! - says Dr. F. Batmanghelidj MD
