How to Heal With Water

I'm intrigued by all the valuable information that comes to me via subscriber e-mails. Here is another one that I want to share with you.


Mike Adams, the Health Ranger: Today I'm sharing the true story of what is probably the least-understood health secret in the Western world. It's something your doctor never told you and health authorities never learned. And yet it could be the key to solving the very health problems you may be suffering from right now, including high blood pressure, asthma and even arthritis.

This secret isn't patented. It's not available by prescription and it costs almost nothing. In fact, from time to time, it falls out of the sky and collects in huge pools on the Earth.

What is it? Water.

Water may someday be recognized as the single most important healing
medicine we could possibly consume, and our special report, "The
Healing Power of Water," explains why. You can read it right now at:

http://www.naturalnews.com/Report_water_cure_0.html

Physicians rarely promote the curative properties of H2O, but Dr.
Batmanghelidj, M.D. has studied water's effect on the human body and
has found it to be one of the best pain relievers and preventative
therapies in existence. I was one of the last people to interview the
late Dr. Batmanghelidj, and I listened in awe as he shared his
research and stories about "The Healing Power of Water."

In a fascinating one-hour phone conversation I will never forget, Dr.
B. shared things like:

* Which common ailments and "diseases" are actually caused by
dehydration

* Why many doctors use water-regulating antihistamines to alleviate
pain

* How Dr. Batmanghelidj unintentionally discovered water's healing
properties

* Why most people are chronically dehydrated and suffer from symptoms
of dehydration that are labeled "diseases"

* Which ingredients in soft drinks deplete the body's water reserves

* Why thirst is not a reliable indicator of dehydration

* Why the body produces cholesterol and how water keeps it in balance

* Why Dr. Batmanghelidj believes the public is being mislead about
AIDS

* How dehydration impairs mental functioning

* Why some organizations want to withhold alternative health
information from the public

* How lack of water causes depression

* Why popular beverages are no substitute for water

* How dehydration causes the vascular system to constrict, leading to
hypertension

* How to recognize signs that your body is starting to dehydrate

* Why restaurants push you to drink disease-promoting soft drinks

* Why and how water effectively treats pain and inflammation

Healing Power of Water"
right now and read it yourself. It's offered
in PDF format (Adobe Acrobat), so it works on any computer!

Eating Out? 10 Diet-Busting Restaurant Dishes

These Calorie Bombs Sound Healthy, But They're Not
By Jill Weisenberger, MS, RD, CDE, LifeScript Nutrition Expert
Published December 13, 2008

That turkey burger on the menu sounds healthy – a portion of protein with veggies on the side. Surprise… it’s a ticking calorie bomb! Read on for the top 10 diet-busters at your favorite chain restaurants. Then test how much you know about staying lean when dining out…

Restaurants are a dieter’s downfall. For one thing, meal portions have ballooned (and so have we). Foods are frequently sautéed, stir-fried or simmered in gobs of butter or oil. Even foods that sound healthy can be laced with hidden fat, sugar and salt.

Here are 10 of the most fattening dishes at your favorite chains, based on information from nutrition experts and restaurants themselves:

1. Turkey and Veggie Burgers
These only sound healthy. Sure, veggies are low in fat. So is turkey when it’s skinless and cooked without oil. But the burger’s size, fat content and condiments determine its total nutritional value and calorie count.

So who would guess that Ruby Tuesday’s Bella Turkey Burger contained more than 1,100 calories and 71 grams of fat? The extra baggage comes from its bloated size, signature sauce and cheese.

Not only that, turkey is frequently ground with its skin on, adding calories and unhealthy saturated fats.

I hope this "link" works!!

Mental Alertness & Energy

Dr. Ben Kim's Natural Health Newsletter
December 10, 2008

Dear Reader,

If you can use a quick and all-natural boost
of mental alertness and energy at any time
of the day, you may find the following post
to be useful:

http://DrBenKim.com/acupressure-GV-26.html

The above message (abreviated) was in my e-mail this morning and I thought I'd share it with you. I visited the web site and I plan to use this technique. I can use all the mental alertness and energy available!! (Preparation of a "blog" and building a web site has been very challenging!!)

I believe in Holistic health. I have an appointment with my holistic medical doctor on Monday. It's on my list of TAKE CARE OF DETAILS BEFORE THE NEW YEAR. My Christmas present to myself will be an affirmation from my doctor that I am "disgustingly healthy."

I owe my good health, in part, to the Max supplements I take every day. Check my web site http://SeniorSecurity.MaxTrax4u.com/

Salt On a Wound

I found the following information under the caption Food Porn in a little publication called Nutrition Action Healthletter, Dec. 2008.

"Sweet and salty, a twist on hot chocolate." That's how the Starbucks Web site describes its new Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate, which is "topped with whipped cream, a swirl of caramel and a sprinkle of our sea salt topping...."

That Starbucks! Always looking out for our [health] interest. Another company might stick with just one hot 500-plus-calorie beverage that delivers a day's saturated fat and sugar (its grande Signature Hot Chocolate).

Not the coffee giant. Why stop with a Big Mac's worth of bad stuff when you can add some salt to stir up our blood pressure??

Okay, that's an exaggeration. A grande (16 oz.) Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate has "only" 300 milligrams of sodium--a fraction of the Big Mac's 1,040 mg. But its 620 calories beat the Big Mac's 540, and its saturated fat (19 grams) makes the Big Mac (10 grams) look like a veggie burger.

What's more, a Big Mac comes in just one size, while you can balloon the hot chocolate to 760 calories and 22 grams of saturated fat merely by uttering the word "venti" (20 oz.) when you order.

Best of all, the calories in a hot chocolate (or any beverage) won't curb your appetite like the calories in a Big Mac would. So an hour later, you can dig into a snack or sandwich--or an entire meal--as if the hot chocolate had never happened.

Of course, some parts of you will remember...say, the fat-infused walls of your arteries and the place where your waist used to be.

Good News - Bad News

Thanks to the Internet, I have been reconciled with my brother. We lost touch with one another over six years ago. (A web business named Reunion alerted us to one another's search and pocketed about $100.) That's the "Good News." My brother's health is deteriorating; that's the "Bad News." This makes me extremely grateful for my apparent lack of ailments (I confess that I'm aware that there may be unseen problems). For over thirty years, I have been interested in health and nutrition. I've used numerous aids over the decades (from Amway's Double X to Noni and Vemma) and I attribute my good health to a simple diet, exercise and nutritional supplements. Now my Senior friends, and myself, believe we have found the proverbial "Fountain of Youth." We're using MaxGXL and N-Fuze. (There's also a weight loss supplement called MaxWLX.)
