Your Body’s Many Cries for Water
Your Body’s Many Cries for Water Summary
Many illnesses which today plague millions of people worldwide spring from a simple unrecognised cause – we don’t drink enough water! When our bodies eventually cry out painfully in protest, we call these desperate thirst signals asthma, diabetes, arthritis, angina, obesity, Alzheimer’s, high cholesterol and hypertension among other maladies.
This is the breakthrough medical discovery that Iranian-born Dr Batmanghelidj outlines in this extraordinary book – and if we drank more water daily, he maintains, many of the degenerative diseases could be prevented or even cured.
Dr Batmanghelidj first discovered the curative powers of water in an overcrowded Tehran prison where he was held during the 1979 revolution. One day in desperation he prescribed the only medication available for one of 3,000 terrified inmates who was literally dying of acute stomach pain – a single glass of water. The man recovered within minutes. In that moment, he asserts, ‘a new era in the advancement of medical science was born.’
After his release Dr B escaped to the United States to begin further research into water as a medication. Largely ignored by the American Medical Association after presenting his findings to them nearly 20 years ago, his response was to write this book to support many meticulous, peer-reviewed scientific articles
