Energy Medicine - Water and Health

By KG Stiles

Water plays an extremely important role in your diet and bodily functions. Many parts of the brain draw much of their energy from water. Water must be taken into your body in its pure, natural state, optimally it is recommended that you drink half your body weight in ounces daily.

Water is vital to energy production in the cells, overall metabolism, and neurotransmission. Nerve transmission is heavily dependent upon water. Small waterways, or micro-streams run along the full length of nerves. These streams float the neurotransmitters along microtubules to the nerve endings. When the body is dehydrated, nerve transmission is compromised and brain function strongly diminished. Chronic nerve pain can simply be the end result of chronic dehydration. Other chronic pain conditions, including arthritis, can often be reduced significantly after client rehydration.

Another important consideration is that water actually holds the cells of your body together. Water keeps the cell membrane together by forming hydronium ions which makes the water sticky and helps bond the cells. This gives the cells a higher viscosity that helps increase the efficiency of proteins and enzymes.

In a dehydrated cell, the metabolism is greatly impaired. Dehydration has a particularly dramatic effect on sugar metabolism, the immune system, and detoxification. Dehydration profoundly effects the movement of lymph through the body and causes the lymph system to clog up and malfunction. From a cellular point of view, the transmission of nutrients through the cell wall is conducted by water. Many deficiency conditions are often specific dehydration problems.

Dehydration is a significant producer of free radicals in the body. Effective hydration REMOVES FREE RADICALS FASTER than most any other therapy! A fully hydrated body may reduce the need for antioxidant supplements.

Lung dehydration is considered a significant factor in respiratory diseases. Sometimes the most dramatic results can be obtained in asthma and chronic bronchitis with simple rehydration.

Dehydration is a major producer of stress in the body and alters the balance of amino acids. This can allow DNA errors during cell division that can lead to many diseases such as cancer and other cell mutation problems. Water is a vital conductor of energy such as meridian energy and other body energy systems. When the body is dehydrated, it is very difficult for energy based therapies to work.

Due to an imbalance in the cellular environment many people's body cells and brain tissues are dehydrated, despite drinking adequate amounts of water.
