Water and Sunshine - Often Overlooked, So Important for Health and Well Being
WATER Few of us drink sufficient water.
Eight glasses per day is the absolute minimum, and will go a long way toward curing illnesses that physicians suppress with drugs.
Water - not coffee, not tea, not juices and, emphatically, not soft drinks.
If you wait until you feel thirsty, your cells have already suffered from dehydration.
Chronic dehydration is extremely common and dangerous to your health.
The best time to drink water, is one glass half an hour before eating breakfast, lunch and dinner and then again two and a half hours after each meal.
Drink two more glasses before bed.
Getting into a daily habit of drinking water in this way, will go a long way towards ensuring your body is at least meeting its minimum daily water needs.
It is often the case that you are not sick but that your body is starved of water.
At all times make sure you are satisfying your bodies need for water.
When you become better at drinking water your body becomes more efficient at utilising it and you may need to increase your water intake slightly.
Water is the cheapest form of medicine, dehydration can cause many diseases.
Being alert to a regular and satisfactory daily intake of water will arm you against many major diseases that are becoming more widespread.
There are very few people who link their allergy attack, ulcer or back problems to a lack of water.
Without sufficient water your body has no way to eliminate toxins and waste, or the histamines that cause allergies.
Hydration will improve your skin amazingly, plumping it out in a youthful way.
Dehydration, from which most people suffer, creates an imbalance of minerals, and disrupts hormone balance.
Because of this crucial balance, and because water improves the uptake of hormones by cells, it is important for menopausal health.
SUNSHINE Sunshine has long been recognised as essential for the bountiful growth of plants, yet few people realise humans need it as well, particularly for the synthesis of vital Vitamin D.
Studies comparing the abilities of 20 year olds and 80 year olds to synthesize Vitamin D from the sun found that the 80 year olds have fourfold less ability to make Vitamin D in the skin.
So, if you are not 20 any more, be careful to get enough sun, without burning.
The sun is our friend if approached prudently, and it will protect us, not only from osteoporosis, but from all illnesses, including cancer.
WARNING: shun artificial tanning in UV beds as they dramatically increase the risk of malignant melanoma.
If you live where you cannot get sun 12 months of the year, you will need to find other ways to get your crucial Vitamins A and D.
Cream, butter and eggs from properly-raised animals are good sources.
Alternatively, supplement with Vitamin D3, to protect yourself from cancer, osteoporosis, etc.
