Coffee Table Humor Percolates in Good Spirits November 16, 2008
Dr. Batmanghelidj was an amazing man, and an even more amazing MD.
Before I had heard or read anything about this blessed person, I had begun drinking more water, from personal experience with spinal disc problems, realizing that a type of chronic, mild dehydration seemed to aggravate that condition, and retaining enough water kept it at bay.
After reading this book, "Obesity, Cancer, & Depression: Their Common Cause & Natural Cure," I comprehended more of the reasons and physiological facts (which are presented in easily comprehensible terms) for what I had already instinctively accepted on my own.
Also, from this book, I learned why salt is so vital a companion with water, and how natural sea salt, from which the accompanying minerals have not been removed, is vitally different from table salt. I learned more clearly how to successfully manage my daily routines of sea salt and water.
I have always loved salt and used it liberally, never having bought the "program" against it, and I've always craved natural, salt-cured ham and bacon (which is hard to find in these days of insane conflicts on what's actually healthy; I hope to write more on that later, in a blog entry on my Amazon-Connect Author Profile Page). I'm very thankful to this book, though, that I now understand what table salt has been lacking (which it had in its natural beginnings, but purveyors had removed).
I've reviewed several sea salt offerings on Amazon, and am still happily using those I purchased from Pacific Resources Organic Sea Salt, Coarse Ground, 2.2-Pound Bag (Pack of 4) and Coarse Granulated Original Himalayan Crystal Sea Salt, though I still recommend all the salts I reviewed. The mineral content in some are different, depending on where they are collected. I liked the fact that magnesium is in the Pacific Resources salt, because that is one of the minerals I have been deficient in, causing horrible cramping attacks which are immediately relieved by that sea salt, as my review explained. If not for Dr. Batman, however, I would not have learned the vital differences among types of salts (which I began studying on Amazon's buying pages, after I had read this book).
There's a lot more valuable information in this book than what I've mentioned here. This book should be a health resource on every "coffee table"... (Oops! Sorry! Couldn't help that caffeine humor slip. Read the book to see the inside joke.)
I would recommend any and all of Dr. Batmanghelidj's offerings on the Water Cure. I chose this one to begin with because, from what I could tell from my research, it was the most recent he had published, actually fairly close to his death. What it explains most clearly is how most diseases have been identified with separate, ugly medical terms; yet all of them (including aging) appear to relate directly to a single cause. Chronic, low-grade dehydration.
I'm deeply thankful that this man was able to impart his considerable knowledge and wisdom prior to his returning to his place in heaven, which he has earned many times over.
We weren't born to live forever. At least not yet in this time and space incarnation. But while I'm here, I would like to be as pain free and productive as possible. Dr. Batmanghelidj's collected knowledge has greatly assisted me on both those fronts.
Due to the work he has left with us, I'm sure this man is in a state of ultimate peace.
With undying respect (and humor slipping freely, as I believe this man's spirit would appreciate),

The book was very informative and certainly convinced me to keep drinking water and avoid soda pops, etc. It really made sense.

This book is wonderfully well written and I gained a lot of understanding from reading it. I was afraid of cancer before reading this book. Now I know cancer does not have to be something we dread or have to go through proceedures that kill more than the cancer to help us overcome it. I am rereading and rereading to gain the understanding on the obesity section of the book . The depression section also helped me to understand what I had gone through all those long years and why those drugs messed me up further. I don't have to go there again. Read all of the books written by F.Batmanghelidj, they are all very well written in laymans terms and encouraging. Blessings to you and yours... love ,Kay

Let's see. Our body is 75% water (so is the surface area of the earth). Our brain is 80% water. Need we say anymore?
