Dr B's book is one of the most useful detailed observations about wellness and disease relating to our relationship with water, well correlated and compellingly illustrated with concurring scientific findings--all of which are available in any good medical text on the human physiognomy.

The book covers detailed understandings of water shortage in the body related to asthma, allergies, blood pressure disorders, diabetes, constipation, auto-immune diseases, pain, heartburn, hiatal hernia, colitis, ulcers, rheumatoid arthritis, obesity, depression, gout---the list goes on and contains practically all the well-known and well-experienced villains of ill-health!

In my own practice I confirm that Dr B's findings are perfectly correct, and the reason for it is quite straightforward. It is a signal that 'food/nutrition' other than water must not be taken, (water being a major nutrient for the body). This is because the digestion of food (even juice or milk) requires the body to tie up water resources at the cost of reduced functionality of other areas of the body where there is already a water shortfall. Morning sickness is entirely and quickly reversible by adding a proper water intake as well as a pinch of unrefined sea salt. Plain water intake acts very significantly different to watery foodstuffs in the bodily metabolism--again a fact available in any standard medical text.

In the relatively brief period of time I have systematically applied this knowledge to my practise, I have observed remarkable cures with just the addition of the water rehydration therapy to whatever other measures were being taken. In my own practice as a healer, based on Dr. B's findings I use the water requirement guideline for everyone who comes for treatment. (I give my rehydration protocol at the end of this review).

2+ Years Chronic periodic high fever (up to 105 F) in a female child of 9 years living in New Delhi, which was undiagnosed by all modern clinical tests and was over the past two and a half years variously treated as: repeated tonsillitis/acute strep infection (no medicine helped except homeopathy), Typhoid fever, tuberculosis, and of course 'Pyrexia of Unknown Origin' (PUO)and 'NAD' (nothing abnormal diagnosed/[not able to diagnose!]). The mother had been giving the child fruit juices and milk more or less as a 'healthy' alternative to water while the child had no more than 8-12 ounces of water per day.

All juices were stopped. In this particular episode, all antibiotics that had been given continuously for 10 days were stopped in the morning (fever 103 F) and increasing the water intake to between 800-1000 mls for the day, plus 2 pinches of unrefined sea salt on the tongue directly started bringing down the fever within 1 hour; fever gone in 3 more hours with no repetition of fever since then. All fruit juices were stopped. The liver and spleen enlargement disappeared in a few days.

Other results with rehydration therapy--Many cases of acute constipation reversed/cured; burning in urine with no infection and days later urinary infection diagnosed reversed and cured where antibiotics failed; chronic migraine headaches with nausea, vomiting---reversed/cured. Skin infections, pimples--cured. Angina pains--reversed/healed/cured. Acidity and indigestions--healed. Irritable bowel syndrome with bleeding--healed along
with addition of sugar water as recommended by Dr.B. For the auto-immune disorder, vasculitis (Behcets disease), the symptoms improved in 2 weeks on water +salt +vitamin regimen and continue to do so.

Dr. Batmanghelidj, saying on his Web site, "he was on a "God-given assignment to research the awesome medicinal properties of water and share the information with the scientists and the public."

*PLEASE NOTE: Read with caution any references in this protocol that recommend removal of nutritional supplements, the addition of sugar (he was born in IRAN)  or a deemphasis on  the importance of minerals and vitamins. "Dr. B" died in 2004 @ the age of 73 from pneumonia (Fluid on the lungs that causes infection) Excess fluid in the body is the result of dehydration AND  mineral deficiencies. Mineral  promote proper circulation of the water throughout the body. Dr. Joel Wallach is 73 and espouses hydration and mineral vitamin supplementation. It is important not to follow partial truths, when making decisions about your health.

GLOSSARY of 

TRADITIONAL  BLOOD PRESSURE MEDICATIONS

Diuretics







  • Hydrochlorothiazide
    Prescription drug
    Consult a doctor if you have a medical concern.
  • Used alone or together with other medicines to treat high blood pressure and fluid retention (edema). This medicine is a diuretic (water pill).Removes excess water from the kidneys and  sodium








  • Furosemide (Lasix)
    Prescription drug
    Consult a doctor if you have a medical concern.
  • Treats fluid retention (edema) and high blood pressure (hypertension). This medicine is a diuretic (water pill).

    Beta-blockers


    Beta-blockers reduce nerve impulses to the heart and blood vessels. This makes the heart beat slower and with less force. Blood pressure drops and the heart works less hard.







  • Metoprolol
    Prescription drug
    Consult a doctor if you have a medical concern.
  • Treats high blood pressure and angina (chest pain), and lowers the risk of repeated heart attacks. It is also used to treat heart failure. This medicine is a beta-blocker.






  • Atenolol
    Prescription drug
    Consult a doctor if you have a medical concern.
  • Treats high blood pressure and angina (chest pain). May also lower the risk of repeated heart attacks. This medicine is a beta blocker.

    ACE inhibitors

    Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors prevent the formation of a hormone called angiotensin II, which normally causes blood vessels to narrow. The ACE inhibitors cause the vessels to relax and blood pressure goes down.










  • Lisinopril

    Treats high blood pressure and heart failure. A lower blood pressure will reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack. Also used in the first few days after a heart attack to help reduce the risk of death. This medicine is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor.
  • Brand namesZestrilPrinivil






  • Pregnancy riskCategory D (Positive evidence of risk)
  • Angiotensin antagonists

    Angiotensin antagonists shield blood vessels from angiotensin II. As a result, the vessels become wider and blood pressure goes down.







  • Losartan (Cozaar)
    Prescription drug
    Consult a doctor if you have a medical concern.






  • Treats high blood pressure. Reduces the risk of stroke in patients with high blood pressure and enlargement of the heart. Treats kidney disease in patients with type 2 diabetes and a history of high blood pressure. This medicine is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB).









  • Valsartan (Diovan)
    Prescription drug
    Consult a doctor if you have a medical concern.
  • Treats high blood pressure and heart failure. A lower blood pressure can reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack. May also prolong life after a heart attack. This medicine is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB).

    Calcium channel blockers (CCBs)

    CCBs keep calcium from entering the muscle cells of the heart and blood vessels. This causes the blood vessels to relax and pressure goes down.

    Amlodipine






  • Prescription drug
    Consult a doctor if you have a medical concern.
  • Treats high blood pressure or chest pain (angina). A lower blood pressure will reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack. This medicine is a calcium channel blocker.
