Tsunamis are large seismic waves caused by underwater earthquakes. These occur largely in the region of the Pacific Ocean because the tectonic plates around the Pacific all push inward, while the plates inside the Pacific push outward. Many scientists are puzzled as to what the source of energy behind earthquakes and tsunamis is. Adams suggests one option: “Here the solution to this mystery is provided by an understanding of the earth as a living organism. This is because living organisms produce biological mechanisms resulting in heat, movement, circulation, digestion, and so on. Earthquakes account for only a fraction—some say about 10% —of the total energy expended by the earth.” Tectonic plate shifts are also associated with volcanoes which further suggest a living, pulsing earth. Scientists have noted that the lunar cycle could have an effect on earthquake patterns, in particular eclipses. Egyptians, Vedic cultures and Ancient Greeks recorded their studies on the new moon eclipses correlating with earthquakes. It is most likely a phenomenon related to the magnetic field of the Earth and moon working together. The cycles of Earth and its water therefore involve much more than just inside our atmosphere. There are universal properties and energies at work in this global cycle of life.

As our bodies become dehydrated, the first things to be affected are mucous membranes, joints, and skin. This is the body’s way of protecting the vital organs. As these areas weaken, we are vulnerable to many problems. Even just 2% dehydration has been found to depress the nervous system. Humans are having trouble staying hydrated because we are drinking unstructured water, which has bigger molecules that the cell cannot absorb properly.

Without hydration the body just cannot function properly and begins to fail quickly. Here is a list of ailments linked to dehydration provided by Adams: “allergies, asthma, colitis, headaches, candidiasis, liver disease, stress, hypertension, COPD, heart disease, varicose veins, stroke, infertility, panic attacks, gastritis, rheumatism, cirrhosis, glaucoma, arthritis, chronic fatigue, Crohn’s disease, angina, hiatal hernia, neck pain, multiple sclerosis, high cholesterol, peptic ulcer, insomnia, GERD, Alzheimer’s, scleroderma, indigestion, cystitis, eczema, PAD, polyps, diabetes, kidney disease, irritable bowel, claudication, gout, depression, PMS, atherosclerosis, obesity, cystic fibrosis, muscle cramps, Parkinson’s, anxiety, constipation, UTI, schizophrenia, neuropathy, and ear infections.” This is no short list; hydration with the right type of water is extremely important. Around age 21, thirst sensation starts to decline. That is why drinking water becomes even more important when we become adults.

According to Dr. Batmanghelidj, water should be ingested 30 minutes before meals, anytime thirst arises, two and a half hours after meals, first thing in the morning, before exercise, and extra water for those who suffer from constipation and/or do not eat fruits or vegetables. If that sounds like too much, consider these few facts Dr. Batmanghelidj reminds us of: “Every twenty-four hours the body recycles the equivalent of forty thousand glasses of water to maintain its normal physiological functions. It does this every day of its life. Within this pattern of water metabolism and its recycling process, and depending on environmental conditions, the body becomes short of about six to ten glasses of water each day. This deficit has to be supplied to the body every day.” The body needs half its weight in ounces every day to be able to complete its minimum functions.

So many of the patients of Dr. Batmanghelidj who took his advice have improved their lives and health greatly doing just a few simple things like drinking more water.

In adulthood the body is no longer centered on growing and dividing cells. The hydration requirement levels are able to reach a stable number. The body’s job now is simply to regulate the water that is coming in. This doesn’t mean drinking less water; it means keeping the water levels where they need to be. The thirst signal starts to diminish in adulthood. This is because the body learns to ration water in dehydration mode and there is no need for the thirst mechanism. Rationing water during hydration is obviously not the goal of our water cycle. It is a survival trait of the body’s functions.

The body recognizes that some functions are more important than others and cells then receive water on a “need” basis only. When cells do not need the water, blood vessels leading to them are shut down and circulated to other more important cells. Between ages 18-25 the body starts its thirst sensation reduction. Dr. Batmanghelidj elaborates: “Unfortunately, our thirst sensation, as it is understood today—a dry mouth—is not an accurate indicator of the body’s actual water needs. If we don’t feel thirsty, we tend not to drink water. We wait to become thirsty before we even begin to think of drinking water.” To sum it up, the body needs more than it asks for. Drinking water before thirst sets in is important.

When we need water, sometimes we don’t feel thirsty. The thirst sensation may come about in other forms and feelings. Dr. Batmanghelidj has listed the most common feelings in his book. The first feeling is tired. Water is our energy supply. It breaks food down and delivers it to our cells, and also powers cell function on many levels.

Another feeling is flushed. The brain dilates the blood vessels to try and get more water wherever it can. Alcoholics usually have a flushed face because their brain is dehydrated. A dehydrated brain will also lead to hangovers.

Irritability is another feeling dehydration can cause. This is the brain’s way of shutting down from socialization, which takes precious energy to continue doing during dehydration.

The next feeling is anxiety. This is the brain’s way of being on alert mode, trying to get the body to feel that it needs water.

Sometimes dehydration causes feelings of inadequacy. It is the inability to distribute amino acids, without which a person can feel incomplete. Water is needed to distribute the amino acids. Once again, it is the brain’s way of trying to get our attention that something is missing.

These are just a few of the feelings that thirst can bring on; there are many more. If a person is feeling any of these, they may just not be getting enough water.
