Book Reviews of Water: For Health, for Healing, for Life: You're Not Sick, You're Thirsty!
Book Review: "Water".........Right idea; poor presentation
Summary: 2 Stars
The author is 'right on' in emphasizing the importance of water in our life. I agree with the 'conclusion' of his arguments, particularly the importance of 'prevention' as compared to the 'cure'. I agree also with his views on the importance of salt and minerals in our diet. In fact, his summary at the end of the book is good. So why do I have a problem with the book? Virtually all of his 'theories' presented, essentially as a 'cure', or at least a help in the prevention of a disease, are unsubstantiated, exaggerated, and largely unbelievable. He would have us believe that hydration of the body will prevent or inhibit virtually all diseases afflicting mankind. There is almost no mention of support for his hypotheses by reputable people in the medical professions; no peer reviews. Peer reviews are the essential part of understanding and revising medical practice ( or any scientific theory for that matter.) We are to believe there exists some sort of alliance of doctors and the drug industry to prevent the public from learning that if we are 'hydrated' most of the drugs on the market today would be unnecessary ( unacceptable to those industries that thrive on the fat profits).
Perhaps I'm over stating my problem with the book, but I believe the way it is presented is much too self serving and runs the risk of being counter productive; a very harmful result for such an important subject.
