Have you ever stopped to imagine what's
the most abundant component of your Human body? Would it be bone? Or
skin? Perhaps it's carbon.
It's water. Our physical bodies, our brains,
and the crucial element at the basis for every cellular function is
WATER. The embryo develops and grows within the fluidity of water.
Our brains are composed of water. Our blood, the carrier of nutrients,
the vital transporter of oxygen enabling us to MOVE, even our blood
has its basis in water.
Water allows us to exist, and it's well-known
that a human being can survive many days without food, but will perish
within 72 hours without water. It seems so simple, because like all
deceptively simple things, whenever we improve and change a component
at the absolute core of life, we accelerate and magnify every healing
potential.
We might imagine that water is static,
or without the ability to carry a charge, that water could be sterile,
or distilled. It's true, our modern world with its plastic bottles
and its tight, sealed containers, gives the illusion that water can
be a sterile and lifeless thing.
Every living being on this planet is a
self-contained system for water. In this sense, our bodies are a container
for water of the most unique kind.
In fact, water is the major component of
life on this planet. Water is indispensable for life. It's the life-giving
fluid within all organisms, humans, animals, and plants alike.
Our very existence is therefore intimately
connected with - - and dependent upon - - the quality of water available
to us. The integrity of the water you place into your body is the
essential basis at each and every one of your biological functions.
It isn't an exaggeration to say that water
is involved - - and at the forefront - - of every activity each of
us engage in daily. It's indisputable: water is the absolute basis
of biological electricity.
In short, water allows the quality of your
personal life to be amplified or diminished. It's hard to believe that
something so basic could make such an exponential difference. Yet we
can no longer afford to take for granted any aspect of water's vital
role in our bodies!
Today, more than ever, we are beginning
to understand the healing aspects of water as the most prominent compound
within our human body. It may be that there were
previous times when some people failed to value the vital role water plays
as the deliverer of the life force within each of us.
These times have passed. We now are keenly
aware that each body's multifold processes, each person's life mechanisms,
are clued, keyed, and generated by water. It's no accident that the
majority of the earth's surfaces are covered by water. And it's WATER
which makes the crucial difference between the virtual existence of
life in our solar system - - or whether a planet is an inhospitable
orb of molten, fiery rock.
Within our bodies, water is required to
eliminate toxic waste. Water is the dissolver and transporter of nutrients
for all systems both above and below the ground.
We might forget that water permeates the
cells' membranes and even the cerebral-spinal fluid. It is needed to
support protein structure and enzyme activity. It serves as the adhesive
that holds together the various structures in all
organic architecture, including digestion.
Water is essential for HYDRATION. This
is because of water's miraculous ability to permeate tissue and matter
in its various forms. For this we can thank Mother Nature, and marvel
at the fact that even when it's dispersed as vapor, water remains potent
and vital.
The "Daily Human" ages primarily from a lack of water. This is why
hydration is one of the essential and key elements for maintaining elasticity
and youth (as well as beautiful skin)!
Humans contain 90% water in the embryonic
stage. This then steadily decreases to 80% water for infants, down
to about 70% water in the "Daily Human" by age 24, and finally,
levels of 50% water or less, as aging sets in.
In other words, as you age, you shrink
and dry up. You can delay the aging process by the quality and "ALIVENESS" of
the water you drink. Water is the absolute essence of
what you are - - and you don't need to be Irish to know that what you drink
determines your state of mind.
Seriously, your state and the integrity
of your HYDRATION of your water will allow you to stay young. The secrets
of water are just that simple: The quality, purity, and aliveness of
the water you allow yourself to drink every day.
Technically, when water is able to hydrate
the cells, your blood, joint cartilage, capillaries, digestion, your
spinal column and the ATP, all work in an efficient, easy manner.
When your body's cells absorb water, they
swell. THEY BECOME HYDRATED. This action triggers healing mechanisms,
thus they achieve positive nitrogen balance, protein synthesis and
growth hormone release.
Technically, ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)
is a complex chemical compound formed from the energy released from
food. ATP is stored in all cells, particularly in the muscles. Only
from this energy, released by the breakdown of this compound, can your
cells perform work. Only from ATP can you move, cognate, and go from
Point A to Point B. And at the basis of this vital, essential energy,
you can thank WATER for giving your living cells the hydration which
permits ATP to exist as your "basic battery fuel."
You cannot be a human being or a living
battery without water. You would simply burn up.
