Water is Life

“You’re Not Sick. You’re Thirsty!"

The line above is the title of Dr. F. Batmanghelidj’s book. He is also the author of “Your Body's Many Cries for Water, which expounds on the healing powers of water.

 Today, June 23rd, is National Hydration Day, a day that reminds us of how important it is to drink sufficient amounts of water and keep ourselves hydrated. Water is vital to keeping us alive and healthy, and several health issues come with not drinking enough.

Asthma, allergies, arthritis, hypertension, depression, headaches, diabetes, obesity, and MS. These are a few of the conditions and diseases caused by persistent dehydration. There is, however, a miracle solution that is available to us all. In Water: For Health, For Healing, For Life, Batmanghelidj reveals how to obtain optimum health by drinking more water.

Despite everything we know about how critical water is, statistics show that most adults do not drink enough, and some admit to not drinking any water at all!

An average adult needs to consume half their body weight in ounces. Meaning, a 150-pound person should drink 75 ounces of clean water per day.

Drink up and hydrate because water is life! 

 So, tell us. How many ounces of water do you drink in a day?
