Just How Important Is Clean Pure Water?

By Lee Jacobs

Many of us don't' realize the importance of drinking clean pure water. The human body is composed of over 70% water. Our health and well being is largely dependant upon the quality f the water that the body contains.

The break down of the body's make up in term of constituents stands at 72% water, 20% solid tissue and bone, and 8% a combination of chemical compounds. When this is looked at from a biochemical standpoint, it stands to reason that the quality of the body's fluids would have a significant impact on the overall well being of a person. Each life giving action that occurs in the body takes place in this body of water.

Many medically based discoveries have occurred during the last decade that has brought the capacity of the human body's ability to heal itself to our awareness. It seems the body can overcome nearly any pathology if given the chance. The body instinctively knows how to heal itself, and water seems to be the key.

Every cell within the body is governed by complex electrical signals sent via the nervous system stemming from the brain. Essentially, the nervous system is a complex array of miniscule "waterways". For instance, if we become dehydrated, the fluid within our nerves congeals, giving way to a congested mix of synthetic and organic contaminants that distort the vital signals within the body.

Scholars have now concluded that the distortion of these sensitive communications within the body are the cause of many degenerative pathologies and neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Chronic Fatigue, depression, anxiety, and even Attention Deficit Disorder.

Medical studies have revealed that a small drop in body fluids, as little as 4%, can cause a loss of energy up to 30%. People that occasionally suffer from decreased energy levels could be experiencing this as a result of dehydration. If the body fluids drop by 15%, death is a possibility.

The statistics have it that more than 65% of people don't consume enough fluids, with many of us experiencing some degree of dehydration. Effectively this means that much of the populace is running at roughly 70% of our capacity, and in many cases less.

Conditions like ulcers, hypertension, arthritis, fatigue, sickness and headaches can be significantly reduced in many cases or entirely prevented by simply drinking an adequate amount of clean water.

It's important to clarify that clean pure water is what we are saying that needs to be consumed, and not fluids such as tea, coffee, colas and the like. This distinction is of utmost importance, as many fluids will actually dehydrate the system - we need to hydrate!

Each time we eat a meal, a certain amount of body fluid will be used to transport the nutrients form the bowel. Equally important, an adequate amount of fluid is required to flush the toxins that build up from any metabolic wastes from the body.

If we supply the body with the right minerals and nutrients and an adequate supply of clean water, it can overcome practically anything.
