Skip the Water, Have a Soda Instead

[Guest guest]

detached from reality, the mainstream media (MSM) has launched a new wave of

misinformation designed to discredit the health benefits of drinking water!

Just today, for example, Fox News ran a story entitled, Skip the Water, Have

a Soda Instead. ( <http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,345576,00.html>

(http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,345.)

 

Other news organizations, such as the Chicago Tribune also jumped on the

bandwagon, declaring that drinking eight glasses of water a day has no

<http://www.naturalnews.com/health_benefits.html> health benefits

whatsoever.

 

This latest wave of attempts to discredit

<http://www.naturalnews.com/water.html> water comes from - no surprise - the

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology. Nephrology means " the study

of kidneys, " for all the non-medical folks reading this, and the

aforementioned journal caters to medical professionals who earn their living

from kidney problems caused by

<http://www.naturalnews.com/dehydration.html> dehydration! Thus, this

campaign to tell people to stop

<http://www.naturalnews.com/drinking_water.html> drinking water is a

fantastic way to boost kidney problems (including

<http://www.naturalnews.com/kidney_stones.html> kidney stones) and generate

more repeat business for kidney specialists. What a coincidence, huh?

 

That's how money is made in the medical industry these days, by the way: Rig

some junk science, announce it as scientific fact, and wait for the

<http://www.naturalnews.com/mainstream_media.html> mainstream media to jump

on the bandwagon and declare water to be dangerous, or drugs to be safe, or

sunlight to be deadly, or whatever current nonsense they're spewing that

drives more customers into their offices to be poisoned by medication,

radiation or <http://www.naturalnews.com/chemotherapy.html> chemotherapy.

 

Think about it, for a moment. It is now the position of

<http://www.naturalnews.com/conventional_medicine.html> conventional

medicine that:

 

.. Water is bad for you.

.. Sunlight is bad for you.

.. Nutritional supplements are worthless.

.. Herbs are dangerous and might kill you.

.. Meditation and prayer has no medical benefit.

 

And what, might you ask, do these <http://www.naturalnews.com/doctors.html>

doctors recommend that patients do to enhance their health? Here's what they

recommend:

 

.. Poison your body with chemotherapy.

.. Slather your skin with sunscreen that blocks vitamin D production.

.. Take medications that cause permanent liver damage.

.. Drink processed <http://www.naturalnews.com/beverages.html> beverages and

eat processed, cooked foods.

.. " Manage " your biochemistry with

<http://www.naturalnews.com/medication.html> medication, not nutrition.

.. Have your breasts surgically removed to prevent breast cancer.

 

Gee, it's no surprise, then, to learn about this latest finding that " water

has no health benefits. "

 

 

Every living system on Earth needs water

 

 

This hilarious finding comes as quite a shock to the more than one trillion

living beings on this planet (animal, human and otherwise), all of which

somehow happen to need water as their No. 1 nutrient. Nobody bothered to

tell all the deer about this research, it seems, because last time I

checked, they were still running to the local stream and drinking some

water. They were not waiting in the drive-through at McDonald's, hoping to

order a Coke.

 

It's a good thing these nephrology experts aren't gardeners. I can't wait to

see the results they'll get when they stop watering their gardens. Or their

lawns. If water has no health benefits, they should avoid drinking all

liquids for a few days and see what happens. (Hint: They will go into a coma

or die, which will of course help ensure they never publish stupid science

articles again.) I wonder whether they give water to their own children, or

if they cause them to be dehyrated, too?

 

 

The idiocy of modern medicine

 

 

The truth about these latest attacks on water is that conventional medicine

doesn't want people to prevent disease with water, herbs,

<http://www.naturalnews.com/nutrition.html> nutrition, sunlight or anything

natural. The more people get healthy, the fewer " customers " there are to

rack up profits for drug companies, hospitals, doctors and yes, even kidney

experts (who should know better).

 

Looking at today's headlines on water, you just have to laugh: The Chicago

Tribune declares, " Water's benefits questioned by scientists, " for example.

It's a headline that should probably be rewritten to say, " Kidney Doctors

Recommend Dehydration! "

 

Want kidney stones? Stop drinking water and start drinking soda. That's what

<http://www.naturalnews.com/Fox_News.html> Fox News recommends in their

headline.

 

You know, when the <http://www.naturalnews.com/MSM.html> MSM gets this

unbelievably stupid, and mainstream medicine goes to such outrageous lengths

to try to discredit natural substances like water, it makes me wonder just

how insane this world has really become. Is the public really so stupid that

people will believe these fraudulent headlines? I hope not. Then again, one

of the side effects of dehydration is a decline in cognitive function. It

seems like the journalists have been dehyrated for long time now, huh?

 

I can't wait to see what they'll come up with next. They're already attacked

water, sunlight, plants and nutrition. What's next, air? Will tomorrow's

headlines declare, " Breathing is bad for your health? "

 

Don't think it won't happen. There is no limit to the stupidity of modern

medical science.
