RE: WATER IS LIFE

in #stach7 years ago (edited)

I have lived in tropics and sub-tropics most of my life, and can say that this is a most important read for anyone. Particularly all those who do physical labour. And particularly anyone who is susceptible to illnesses and sensitive to every little cold that comes around. Alcohol dehydrates. Tea and coffee dehydrate. Soft drinks dehydrate. Many of the things we do in modern life are not thought through and rehydration is extremely important to a healthy balanced way of life. Clean water is a cleanser of the insides and takes much pressure off the kidneys and liver in detoxifying and regenerating our bodies. Teach your children, nag your siblings. Water as soon as you arise, and a glass half an hour before you eat at mid-day, and again half an hour before you eat at twilight. Tea is great and a coffee is wonderful, in their place and time, soft drink or beer in it's place is also a nice coolant, but nothing tops clear water, at work or at play. I spent forty years as designated driver, not because I didn't like alcohol, but because I saw what it does to everyone who doesn't know, one more is too many. I liked being drunk occasionally, when I could trust someone to put me in the back seat and take my shoes off before leaving me to sleep it off, but trust is in short supply among drinkers so I provided it. Water, dry bread, and a lift home. Of all our luxuries in our lives, the availability of clean water is probably the most important and the least esteemed.
An extremely good and important post say I, from the desert lands of greater Australia to the the salty desert of oceans, clean water sustains and makes possible all of us and all of our food.
Keep on keeping on. 😇
Resteemed.
