Guest guest Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 I am a big believer in water. I drink mostly that with my green tea in the mornings and evenings. Water can increase brain firing, lessen appetite, increase energy, etc. On the other hand, if you drink things like coffee, you need to add 2 oz for every oz of coffee/caffeine you drink. That is in addition to the half of your weight in ozs. I am taking a health class from a doctor right now. We were talking about water in our second session. Caffeine actually causes dehydration which is why you have to drink additional water. After a few days you will not have to pee as often. Your body will adjust. Also, when you drink, sip it through out the day. No guzzling. It is like watering a plant too fast, it all drains out of the pot <G>. I am a gulper so I have worked on training myself to slow down my water drinking. Makes a big difference. Best success in this water experiment. maryruth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Carol,Good Luck. Â I hope the results are great and maybe I'll do it too. Â Are you drinking Kangen water or just bottled water or what kind? Â Thanks! Subject: The Water Cure To: fibromyalgiacured Date: Saturday, January 29, 2011, 10:07 AM Â Hi Everyone, Well Ive decided to try the water cure on top of the high fat diet and to see what kind of results I get. Im on my second day today. I have had to pee alot, as you are suppose to drink half of your body weight in oz a day. In other words, if you weigh 130lbs, you would have to drink 65 oz of water a day. And your also suppose to have a pinch of sea salt on your tongue a day and wash it down with water. This program comes from the book called. Your bodys many cries for water. I don't own the book yet, but I have seen alot about it on the Internet. I am trying this because I can remember the first time that I got well from Fibro, I had drank at least two liters of water a day back then. So I'm giving this a wurl. Wish me luck. My dizzyness finally subsided yesterday so I am really greatful for that. Still have a very congested chest, but with all of this water intake it should help minimize it. Its also helping me drink less Coffee so thats obviously a plus. I'm going to keep at it for at least two weeks to maybe a month and see what kind of results I get from this. If I have wonderful results then I will keep it going. And I will keep you all posted on how Im progressing. I am determined to stick this out, because although yes I do drink water already, but no where near enough. I never have, except for the one time that I did manage to heal myself back in 1998 from Fibromyalgia. So I'm going to stick through this with all I have. You might be thinking to yourself big deal she's going to drink water...lol but to me it is a big deal because my family is always getting on to me that I don't drink enough of it. I usually have a cup of coffee in my hands, so it really is a big deal here. LOL Much love to you all, thank you all for being there. I love our group!

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 By the way.  does anyone here know anything about broccoli sprouts?  I have acid reflux and ulcers in my esophagus.  I have been reading on Bees sight and supposedly the very best thing to eat to help is broccoli sprouts.  I can't say that I have ever seen any and sure don't know where to get them. Subject: The Water Cure To: fibromyalgiacured Date: Saturday, January 29, 2011, 10:07 AM  Hi Everyone, Well Ive decided to try the water cure on top of the high fat diet and to see what kind of results I get.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Hi Carol, Is someone giving you bottled Kangen water? That's great. That's how I started. Now I need to start again as I have the low end Enagic machine (the Sun.US.) If you overdue it, it can make your head hurt or make you dizzy. It's got more oxygen than regular water and the body has to adjust. I overdid it by drinking a gallon straight in the morn and in the eve all at once! That's what they told me to do (the people giving me the water). Sometimes I was okay and other times I had a wierd reaction. Also if they start you at too high a PH too soon you can feel sick because you will begin detoxing and get diahreah. This may not be the loveliest thing to hear, but it's good for you to know just in case that too much to soon at too high a PH can give you a bad reaction. The 2nd hand water is still good but not as potent as straight from the machine. But believe me, if they fill the bottles and bring it to you and the machine is calibrated right, you will feel the difference. You should feel more energy and a better mood pretty quick. Also take meds 45 mins b4 or after water as the micro-clusters make it more potent as it breaks the medicine down more because of smaller water microclusters than regular water. I called Enagic which is the company that makes Kangen water machines, and they said yes drink half your body weight or whatever they said, but they also said to not start at the highest pH, but to start at more like 8.0 and maybe four eight ounce glasses a day and build. Well I did more than they said, but I had to spread it out or I'd get a wierd headache, dizzy strange oxygen rush. My friends sister started too high at 9.0 PH and was sick and in bed for a week with diareah but then they told me she felt great. I wouldn't do it. I'd do what Enagic says and start at 8.0 and after a few weeks or month then go up higher in PH. It's really not like regular water. It won't cure Fibro, but it helps with diet and supplements and it helps prevent diseases and all kinds of stuff. I wish I could cure this fibro. My CFS has been higher lately and I'm falling asleep more. But it could be I lowered my Thyroid medicine. Anyway good luck Carol and keep up posted.
