Water Health Report
How Eight Glasses A Day Keep Fat
Away!

Incredible
as it may seem... Water is
the single most important catalyst in losing weight and keeping it off!
Although most of us take it for granted...
Pure, clean water may be the
only true Magic Potion for permanent weight loss!
Water suppresses the appetite naturally and helps the body metabolize
stored fat. Studies have shown that a decrease in water intake
will cause fat deposits to increase!
And an increase
in water intake can actually reduce
fat deposits!
Here's the reason why...
The kidneys cannot function properly without enough water. When they do
not work to capacity, some of their load is dumped on the liver. One
of the liver's primary functions is to metabolize stored fat into usable
energy for the body. But if the liver has to do some of the kidney's
work, it cannot work at full throttle.
As a result, it metabolizes less fat... more fat remains stored in
the body and weight loss stops!
Drinking an adequate amount of water every day is the best treatment for
fluid retention. But when your body is given less water than it needs...
it perceives the shortage as a threat to survival and will begin to
retain every drop. Water reserves are stored in extra-cellular
spaces (outside the cells). This water can show up as swollen feet,
hands and legs.
Diuretics only offer a temporary solution at best. They force out stored
water along with some essential nutrients. Again, the body perceives a
threat and will replace the lost water at the first opportunity. Thus,
the condition quickly returns.
The best way to overcome the problem of water retention is to give your
body what it needs - plenty of water - only then will stored
water be released.
If water retention is a constant problem for you... excess salt may
be to blame.
Your body will only tolerate sodium in certain concentrations. The more
salt you eat, the more water your system retains to dilute it. But
getting rid of unneeded salt is easy -- just
drink water! As the
water is forced through the kidneys, it will remove the excess sodium.
Over weight people need more water than thin people. Larger people
have larger metabolic loads. Since we know that water is the key to fat
metabolism... it follows that the over weight person needs more water to
metabolize excess fat.
Water helps to maintain proper muscle tone... which in turn, aids proper
muscle contraction and prevents dehydration. It also helps to prevent
the sagging skin that usually follows weight loss. Shrinking cells are
buoyed by water which plums the skin and leaves it clear, healthy and
resilient. Water helps rid the body of waste. During weight loss, the
body has more waste to get rid of - all that metabolized fat must be
shed.
Again . . .
Water helps flush
out this waste!
Water
can help relieve constipation...
The colon is a primary
internal water source. When the body gets too little water, it siphons
what it needs from internal sources. Result? Constipation. But when a
person drinks enough water... normal bowel function will return.
So far, we have discovered same remarkable truths about water and about
weight loss... the body will not function properly without enough water
and cannot metabolize stored fat efficiently. On the household weight
scales... Retained water shows up as excess weight.
It may seem strange, but to get rid of excess water... you
must drink more water! Drinking water is essential to losing
weight.
How much
water is enough?
If you are of normal
weight for your height, then on average you should drink (8) eight -- 8
oz. glasses of pure water every day. However, if you are overweight
you should take (1) one additional glass for every 25 lbs. of excess
weight you are trying to lose. The amount that you drink should be
increased if you exercise, or if the weather is hot and dry.
Preferably, your drinking water should be taken cold...
Cold
water
is absorbed more quickly into the system than warm water.
Some evidence suggests that drinking cold water can actually burn
calories. To utilize water most efficiently during weight loss, follow
this schedule:
Morning: |
1
Quart of pure water over 30 minutes |
Noon: |
1
Quart of pure water over 30 minutes |
Evening: |
1
Quart of pure water between 5-6 P.M. |
When the body gets all the water
it needs to function optimally, all body system fluids will perfectly
balance.
When this happens . . . you reach the "breakthrough point".
So what does that mean?
- Endocrine gland function
improves...
- Fluid retention is
alleviated as stored water is lost...
- More fat can be used as fuel
because the liver is free to
metabolize stored fat...
- Natural thirst returns...
- There is a loss of hunger
almost overnight.

The
ANTI-AGING Report
How To Reverse Aging Through pH
Balancing and Oxygenation
by Eileen Silva |
|
One
of the most compelling discoveries I've made in the last decade of my
health investigations, is the role of Body
pH
Balancing as an
anti-aging, weight-balancing and disease management technique. You may
be astonished, as I was, to realize the broad health ramifications of
having an overly acidic condition in your body.
I believe the next few paragraphs will open your eyes to both the
realities of body pH imbalances and to the extent this information
seems to apply to you.
The urgency for you to take immediate preventative action!
If you want to live a
long, healthy life... you must learn how to reverse your accelerated
aging schedule with some simple, fast-acting and inexpensive procedures.
Recent re has shown that if you have an "acidic"
body pH balance -- as indicated by the presence of the signs and
symptoms listed below -- then the aging process will be accelerated in
your body... making it very difficult for you to retain a youthful
appearance and a trim physique. Only if you take steps to recreate a
neutral body pH balance, will you be successful in reversing the
degenerative processes at work in your body!
Here are a few common signs and symptoms of an "acidic"
body pH balance:
•
Chronic fatigue |
•
Weak kidneys |
•
Excessive stress |
•
Difficult weight loss |
•
Chronic aches |
•
Malaise |
•
Mental confusion |
•
Skin problems |
•
Frequent Colds |
•
Headaches |
•
Sudden weight gain |
•
Constipation |
So how does your body pH get out
of balance? The answer may surprise you . . . food protein, which is
vital for maintaining your health, can also create an acidic condition
in your body's pH balance.
States Dr. Ted Morter, Jr., a notable pH expert, “The paradox of
protein is that it's not only essential (to life), but also potentially
health destroying.”
Imagine that!
The same protein that you
need to live can actually over-burden your cells making them toxic and
acidic!
And remember... an acidic body pH condition facilitates accelerated
aging, system degeneration and increased susceptibility to sickness and
disease.
Here's some tips for maintaining Optimal pH Balance:
- Manage stress more
effectively!
- Cleanse your body
systems regularly.
- Eat an alkaline
producing diet.
- Drink eight (8) or
more glasses of pure water daily
with fresh lemon juice squeezed in generously.
Your efforts to reverse a pH imbalance should be particularily
aggressive, if you detect an odor of ammonia in your urine. This is a
strong indicator, that your body is in desperate need of organic sodium
and that protein intake must be reduced immediately. When your body does
not get enough sodium . . . calcium will be leached from the bones and
eliminated via urination.
This condition, if allowed to continue can result in serious loss of
bone density and potential osteoporosis.
Your body's pH level can be tested by having a pH test done...
The
ideal target is a 7.0
pH
when measuring
your saliva upon rising in the morning,
before eating or drinking anything.
Once you have
successfully brought your body's pH into balance... you will likely
begin to experience more natural vitality, better metabolism and fewer
internal/external signs of aging.
One of your greatest allies to help bring your body pH into balance is
pure drinking water. Also you should try to avoid food groups that are
naturally acidic. Here are the four (4) basic Food Groups and their
respective Acidity Rating:
Food
Group |
Acidity
Rating |
Meats,
Fish & Poultry |
Very
Acid |
Gravies
& Cereals |
Acid |
Eggs
& Dairy Products |
Acid |
Vegetables
& Fruits |
Alkaline |
Do you suspect
your daily eating habits could be preventing you from achieving optimal
pH balance? If that's the case you should consider supplementing your
daily diet, to restore your body pH to a normal range.
The quickest, most predictable way to shift your body's pH toward
neutral (in an alkaline direction) is to take a free-radical
scavenging all-natural
product rich in green
botanicals
. . .
If you understand the serious health problems that can be created by
allowing a pH imbalance to persist in your body then take a step to
improving your health and the health of your entire family, both young
and old alike? End
