Our bodies are essentially a bag of water that facilitates all of the chemical processes that makes us who we are. It is important to realize just how important proper hydration is to the operation and healing of our bodies. We know, of course, that the efficient elimination of waste products through our kidneys and skin requires adequate water. Cancer is a disease. Are the two things are related? Older people can go for days, scarcely drinking anything because the don’t ‘feel’ thirsty, although their bodies may be crying out for water. Sometimes older people interpret thirst as hunger and eat more than the need. Many old people drink only when they take their medications.
Drinking enough water is extremely beneficial to our bodies, relieving the symptoms of high blood pressure, for instance, sometimes eliminating the need for high blood pressure medicine. Those who specialize in treating cancer using alternative medicine, stress the importance of drinking an ounce of water for every two pounds of body weight, every day. This is very difficult to remember if you don’t feel thirsty. The best way to do it is to set a timer to sound every half hour and take a drink every time the alarm sounds. Bottled water is very ‘in’ so there is no social stigma to carrying a bottle in your car, pocket or purse. It is best if your drinking is distributed evenly during the day and not emphasized in the morning before you begin your daily activities.
I have spoken to many cancer patients about drinking enough water, and I am surprised at the number who object because they ‘don’t want to be up all night’. It seems that they don’t realize that the really need the hydration in order to recover, and the put their inconvenience ahead of their health. A successful alternative cancer treatment plan will produce a lot of ‘inconvenience’, perhaps the least of which will be ‘getting up at night.’ You can, of course, restrict water consumption after 6 pm in order to slow down the nightly trips to the bathroom. so long as you are drinking enough earlier in the day.
It is important to drink only water, not coffee or juices, so the water passes quickly out of the stomach. Any other drinks must be digested, which slows down their passage and greatly restricts how often a drink may be taken.
