Water Therapy And Ayurveda

Water Therapy was established for the first time by………

We are not here to discuss about water therapy (or Naturopathy), but we are going to know what ayurveda says about water, and how water is useful in daily life or in treatment.

  means,
Water is essential for all living beings. The world is three fourths surrounded by water. The life of a healthy or sick person without water is unimaginable.

Drinking a glass of Luke-warm water just after leaving the bed it helps flush out all toxins accumulated overnight in the body
Water should not be taken during meal, because it interferes the process of digestion of food. But water may be taken at least half an hour before lunch and dinner.
We should take at least 8 to 10 glasses of water daily. More water may be taken in thirst or in summer days. But Ayurveda says that one should drink water whenever feels thirsty.


means,
Water serves the purpose of medicine in indigestion. Water drunk after digestion is energizing. Water sipped at the time of taking food tastes like nectar. Water drunk immediately after taking food is harmful as poison.
Too much drinking of water does not help digestion. Not drinking even a drop of water has the same effect. So drinking water at intervals, is very helpful in digestion.

Therapeutics Uses of Water:
1) One or two glass of warm water drinking daily in the morning is beneficial in acidity and constipation.
2) Drink more water in renal calculus and urinary infection.
3) Water was great importance in fasting

Water is used both in cold and hot form, both internally and externally. Water is an important structural component of skin cartilage, tissues and organs. For human beings, every part of the body is dependent on water. Our body comprises about 75% water: the brain has 85%, blood is 90%, muscles are 75%, kidney is 82% and bones are 22% water. The functions of our glands and organs will eventually deteriorate if they are not nourished with good, clean water.

If your body is not sufficiently hydrated, the cells will draw water from your bloodstream, which will make your heart work harder. At the same time, the kidneys cannot purify blood effectively. When this happens, some of the kidney's workload is passed on to the liver and other organs, which may cause them to be severely stressed. Additionally, you may develop a number of minor health conditions such as constipation, dry and itchy skin, acne, nosebleeds, urinary tract infection, coughs, sneezing, sinus pressure, and headaches. So, how much water is enough for you? The minimum amount of water you need depends on your body weight. A more accurate calculation is to drink an ounce of water for every two pounds of body weight.
