"Medical professionals of today do not understand the vital roles of
water in the human body. Medications are palliatives. They are not
designed to cure the degenerative disease of the human body.
The current practice of clinical medicine is based on the application of
pharmacological chemistry to the human body. At the medical school, more
than six hundred teaching hours are allocated to the use of
pharmaceutical products. Only a few hours are allocated to instructions
on diet and nutrition.
The simple true is that dehydration can cause diseases. Everyone knows
that water is good for the body. They seem not to know how essential it
is to one's well-being. They do not know what happens to the body if it
does not receive its daily need of water."
"We misinterpret thirst signals as pain, and treat them with drugs which
silence instead of cure the problem. Because dehydration eventually
causes loss of some functions, the various signals given by water
distribution system regulators during severe and lasting dehydration
have been translated as indicators of unknown disease conditions of the
body. I discovered that histamine is a vital chemical messenger in the
brain. Histamine has a most important function not written about in
medical textbooks. It is in charge of water intake and drought
management in the body. It is less active when the body is fully
hydrated, and becomes increasingly active when the body becomes
dehydrated.
To hush the body's call for water by masking the symptoms with drugs is
like turning out the dashboard light that signal us that our car is
about to overheat."
"Every function inside the body is regulated by and depends on water.
Water must be available to carry vital elements, oxygen, hormones, and
chemical massages to all parts of the body. Without sufficient water to
wet all parts equally, some more remote parts of the body will not
receive the vital elements that water supplies. Without sufficient water
to constantly wet all parts, your body's drought-management system kicks
into action. The histamine-directed chemical messenger systems are
activated to arrange a new, low quota of water for the drought-stricken
area. When histamine and its subordinate "drought managers" come across
pain-sensing nerves, they cause pain. This is why dehydration produces
pain as its first alarm signal. If the dehydration persists and is not
corrected naturally with water, it becomes symptom-producing and, in
time, develops into a disease condition."

Mineral Water
In many places, "mineral water" is often colloquially used to mean carbonated
water (which is usually carbonated mineral water, as opposed to tap water)."
Mineral water is water containing minerals or other dissolved substances that
alter its taste or give it therapeutic value. Salts, sulfur compounds, and gases
are among the substances that can be dissolved in the water. Mineral water can
often be effervescent. Mineral water can be prepared or can occur naturally.
Traditionally mineral waters would be used or consumed at their source, often
referred to as taking the waters or taking the cure, and such sites were
referred to as spas, baths or wells. Spa would be used when the water was
consumed and bathed in, bath when the water was not generally consumed, and well
when the water was not generally bathed in. Often an active tourist centre would
grow up around a mineral water site (even in ancient times; see Bath). Such
tourist development resulted in spa towns and hydropathic hotels (often
shortened to Hydros).
In modern times, it is far more common for mineral waters to be bottled at
source for distributed consumption. Travelling to the mineral water site for
direct access to the water is now uncommon, and in many cases not possible
(because of exclusive commercial ownership rights). There are over 3000 brands
of mineral water available commercially worldwide.[1]
U.S. FDA "Standards of Identity" for Bottled Mineral Water - This type of water
contains at least 250 parts per million total dissolved solids (TDS). It comes
from a source tapped at one or more bore holes or spring, and originates from a
geologically and physically protected underground water source. No minerals may
be added to this water.

Soda & Tap Water
"In advanced societies, thinking that tea, coffee, alcohol and
manufactured beverages are desirable substitute for the purely natural
water needs of the daily 'stressed' body is an elementary but
catastrophic mistake. While these beverages do contain water, they also
contain dehydrating agents. They get rid of the water they dissolved in
plus some more water from the reserves in the body."
"Soda and caffeine-containing beverages don't replace water needs of the
body. Caffeine is a dehydrate substance. It does not allow the water to
stay in the body long enough. Within an hour you will urinate more than
the cup of beverage that you drank. When children are give fruit juice
and soda to the exclusion of water, it only compounds the dehydration
problem. At the same time, a cultivated preference for the taste of
sodas will automatically reduce the free urge to drink water when sodas
are available."
"Ordinary tap water, unless there is proof of its being contaminated
with chemicals and heavy metals such as lead, is a good source of water
supply. However if you are not convinced that your tap water is free of
contamination and impurities, save yourself from this anxiety by
installing a small filtration unit on your kitchen faucet. There are
effective filter unit that can save you from the hassle of carry its
containers day in and day out."
