The Water Prescription: For Health,
Vitality, and Rejuvenation
by Christopher Vasey, ND
Healing Arts Press, Rochester, VT, 2006. $12.95.
No matter how tantalizing the bottled water
companies make their commercials,
dehydration remains an overlooked but
significant issue for many Americans.
Surprisingly, dehydration occurs even when
one ingests copious amounts of fluids, and
can lead to issues varying from fatigue and
weight gain to constipation, digestive
disorders, high blood pressure, and acne.
Diets high in dry or concentrated foods
(breads), fat or salt, appear to be the
primary culprits, as well as overeating and
high stress, all of which dramatically
increase the body's need for pure water.
Unfortunately, drinking soft drinks actually
results in a net loss of liquids for the
body. While coffee, tea and chocolate
beverages all bring in liquid, the majority
of water is used to flush out the toxins
included in the drink. Therefore the best
drink remains simply water. If the banality
of water plays into your lack of proper
hydration, try herbal tea or carbonated
water. "But I'm not thirsty," you say.
Alarmingly, the sensation of thirst, when
ignored for a period of time, gradually
diminishes so that many dehydrated people no
longer experience thirst. Others confuse the
feeling of thirst for hunger because the
accompanying fatigue feels like low blood
sugar. For those seeking proper re-hydration,
Christopher Vasey, a Naturopathic Doctor,
specifies the amount and type of water (tap,
distilled, or low mineral, possibly served
with a bit of sugar or salt) depending on
your type of dehydration, and even details a
method of using drinking water to lose the
weight gained by under-hydration.
