drink enough water

To produce the correct amount of bile each day (1-1½ quarts) that the body needs to properly digest food, the liver needs plenty of water. In addition, the body uses a lot of water to maintain normal blood volume, hydrate cells and connective tissues, flush out toxins, and carry out literally thousands of other functions. Since the body cannot store water in the same way that it stores fat, it relies on regular and sufficient water intake. To maintain adequate bile production and bile consistency, as well as balanced blood values, you should drink six to eight glasses of water per day.

The most important time to drink water is right after you wake up: first, drink a glass of warm water to make it easier for the kidneys to dilute and excrete the urine formed during the night. This is of great importance because the urine is very concentrated in the morning; if not diluted properly, waste products from urine can settle in both the kidneys and urinary bladder. Second, drink another glass of warm water to which you can add the juice of 1 slice of up to ½ fresh lemon and 1 teaspoon of raw honey. This helps cleanse the gastrointestinal tract. Other important times to drink a glass of water (not cold) are about ½ hour before and 2½ hours after meals. These are the times when a well-hydrated body would naturally indicate thirst.

Having enough water available at these times ensures that the blood, bile, and lymph remain fluid enough to carry out their respective activities in the body. Since hunger and thirst signals use the same hormonal alert system in the body, if you feel “hungry” during those times, it’s more likely that you’re running low on water. Therefore, it is best to first drink a glass of room temperature or lukewarm water and then see if your hunger has subsided or not. If you have high blood pressure and use medication for this condition, be sure to check your blood pressure regularly. With an increase in your water intake, your blood pressure can return to normal in a relatively short period of time. This would make taking medication obsolete and even harmful. By drinking enough water, you can also start to lose weight if you are overweight or gain weight if you are underweight.

It is equally important to choose a water treatment system that provides you with fresh, healthy water. The H2O water treatment system is, for example, very efficient and healthy, but it is also quite expensive. Its unique technology even removes pesticides and herbicides from the water, leaving your drinking, shower and pool water as fresh and clean as pure mountain water. The H2O Concept 2000 uses electrical impulses to break down calcium bicarbonate and magnesium bicarbonate, the salts that are the main causes of hard water, into calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate, the by-product of which is carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide dissipates at the faucet in small amounts. Calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate are the soluble forms of these two minerals. In their soluble state, these mineral compounds cannot adhere to the internal surfaces of pipes, water heater coils, glass surfaces, faucets, etc.

Therefore, the accumulation of minerals and the formation of scale are impossible. The H2O Concept 2000 will also significantly reduce any existing scale over time. This gives all the water-using appliances in your home a longer and more efficient life. Although quite expensive at first, this water treatment system saves you money in the end. It is also virtually maintenance free. There are now quite a few similar filters available, some cheaper, some even more expensive. I personally use a Puritec whole house water filter, which is similar to the H2O Concept 2000. When choosing a water treatment system, make sure it has mixed media KDF/GAC filtration technology. Water ionizers are quite affordable, but still very effective and great for people who are not only interested in proper hydration but also want to cleanse the body of toxins.

These are widely available on the Internet. The most widely used methods for removing chlorine and many other contaminants from drinking water (and possibly shower water) are filtration and reverse osmosis. Although these systems can also be expensive, they are still an affordable option when you consider the cost of having a cancer attack. To help replenish some of the minerals lost when using these two types of systems, add a few grains of raw basmati rice to the pitcher or bottle of water (avoid plastic containers) and leave the rice in the pitcher for up to a month in a while Adding a pinch of unrefined sea salt to a glass of water also helps replenish lost minerals. Distilled water, which is the closest to natural rainwater, is excellent for hydrating the body’s cells, but unlike rainwater, it is lifeless. Adding 3-4 raw basmati rice to 1 gallon of distilled water gives you minerals and vitamins (or use the sea salt option), and exposing the water to direct sunlight or placing a clear quartz crystal in the water for an hour helps restore your vitality.

There are machines that I know of that produce healthy, energized distilled water. Its water even eliminates odor in waste ponds and septic systems (it kills only harmful bacteria). Of course, the old method of boiling drinking water for several minutes causes the chlorine to evaporate. Another inexpensive way to get rid of most of the chlorine in your water is to use vitamin C. One gram of vitamin C will neutralize 1 ppm (part per million) of chlorine in 100 gallons of water. This is especially useful if you want to lie in the bathtub without suffering from the irritating effects of chlorine on your skin and lungs. Pearl beads are another form of water treatment, much less expensive. Although they cannot replace a water filter, they still clean drinking water and make it ‘thinner’. This has a positive effect on the blood, lymph and basic cellular processes. Prill accounts are available on the Internet. I can attest to the good taste of the water, its ‘thinness’ and its excellent moisturizing and cleansing effects.

Another good water treatment is Molecular Resonance Effect Technology (MRET), a device that alters the state of molecular organization of water and other liquid substances. MRET Water has many special properties that make it ideal for helping the body increase its quota of structured water. MRET-activated water closely resembles the body’s cellular water and is therefore bioavailable. MRET water is produced through a non-chemical biosafe process of water activation. During this process, a subtle low-frequency electromagnetic field imprints itself on the water. It is similar to the geomagnetic field of the earth found in special healing springs. I’ve tried the basic MRET and found it to be very beneficial, although it does require separate filtering. It is widely available on the Internet.
