Yes, it is hard to accept but it has relieved my asthma greatly..

After a lifetime of being told that salt is bad for me, I finally let go and started to use celtic sea salt liberally (as prescribed in the book). At first I only drank the water, but adding the salt completely maximized my progress. At 4 separate times this past weekend, I stopped my own asthma attacks at each onset. It took me about 7-10 minutes each time. It took alot for me not to use my inhaler, and to just give the water & salt a chance to work. I am extremely grateful and rather emotional about it, since I thought I would be on my proventil inhaler for the rest of my life. The inhaler has caused a number of side effects, and I am now planning a detox to remove the residue of this drug from my body, which I've been dependent on for more than 27 years. And I've only been doing this seriously for 2 weeks, (and getting better with each day). I thank "Dr.B" for giving me my health back (along with hundreds of others whose testimonials I've read on the www.watercure2.com site). These are the same testimonials I was so compelled to read again and again, because I just could not believe and accept that something so simple could cure this disease that left me so weak and scared about the future of my health. Not to mention, very likely preventing other diseases I would be on the road towards. I suppose this is my own testimonial, because it really happened, and I hope that readers searching for an answer will forget their fears (that it won't work) and try it. Yes, it is still hard even for me to believe...even though it continues to work for me. But I do know for sure that I will never stop Dr.B's water & salt prescription. I will say this - if you want your health back, just take it back by taking action.

ABC of ASTHMA ALLERGIES & Lupus

Great Book. Simple to follow, highly recommended. Much safer than steroids and beta 2 agonist which lead to choronic problems with continued use.

Asthma really helped

I have had a chronic cough for years, a form of cough-variant asthma. I also am on a salt-free, or low-salt diet. According to the author, a low or no-salt diet is a trigger for asthma symptoms,for your body can't hold in the water you need and becomes dehydrated. He explains as we become dehydrated we produce a large amount of histamine, which creates back pain,inflamed joints, allergies and asthma. He also explains how the lungs need water almost more than any other part of the body, and get tight and sensitive when the body lacks sufficient water. You also have to get off potassium, such as from orange juice and bananas for some people these are also triggers because they unbalance the salt/potassium balance. To make a long story short, I started drinking the 8-10 glasses of water he recommends, with a pinch of salt (only use sea-salt) after every two glasses, and 1/2 t. a day of sea salt. Within 2 hours the tightness in my chest got better, and within one day I had completely stopped coughing. I kept thinking this was too simple to be true, but now, ten days later, I have almost complete relief from asthma symptoms. This book really makes sense,and the information is presented well. Oh, and another benefit - all my lower back pain went away overnight, after months of pain, chiropractors, stretching, and everything else I could think of. He explains how lower back pain comes from dehydration, that occurs well before we even feel thirsty. It does take a focus to drink that much water, without any tea, caffeine, or other kinds of drinks, but it is worth it. I have recommended this book to everyone I know and have taken it to my doctor to read. There are lots of testimonials in this book from doctors and clinics all around the country who have had the same excellent results using the recommendations in this book.

Dr. Batmanghelidj's reccomendations work!

A nutritionist gave me her copy of Dr. Batmanghelidj's book The ABCs of Asthma, Allergies and Lupus to read because my 5 year old daughter suffers from both allergies and asthma. I was initially sceptical but decided to try Dr. Batmanghelidj's reccomedations. After one day of drinking water and putting a small amount of sea salt on my daughter's toungue we took her off her daily inhaler and antihistamine. Her syptoms disappeared literally overnight and after one week, her school teacher commented that her concentration had improved along with her handwriting. I would reccomend this book to anyone with allergies or asthma. The treatment is simple, safe and free.

A Safe and Effective Treatment

Review of ABC of Asthma, Allergies and Lupus By: David Brownstein, M.D. Dr. Batmanghelidj's book, ABC of Asthma, Allergies and Lupus is a must read for those who practice medicine as well as for those who are suffering from chronic illnesses such as asthma, allergies and Lupus. Dr. Batmanghelidj's unique premise that dehydration is the underlying cause of asthma, allergies and Lupus is supported by sound research and clinical acumen. Dehydration may be the biggest health problem affecting the western world. Conventional medicine has failed to address this simple concept and the consequences to our health have been devastating. Dr. Batmanghelidj's first-hand accounts of his success in using water to cure many chronic conditions are compelling. He further supports his theory of dehydration as the underlying cause of asthma, allergies and Lupus with rational explanations why dehydration is the cause of many chronic illnesses. In this book, Dr. Batmanghelidj provides us with a safe and natural therapy--water-- to overcome many chronic illnesses, which, until now, has been very difficult to treat. As a practicing physician, I have found the information presented in this book invaluable. As a patient, incorporating Dr. Batmanghelidj's recommendations about drinking water into my diet has significantly improved my health. A life-long condition of allergies and asthma has been improved over 90% by using this safe and effective therapy. I was able to virtually eliminate my inhalers and medications by simply increasing the intake of water and adding salt to my diet. This book has not only resulted in an improvement in my life, but in my patients' lives as well. By incorporating Dr. Batmanghelidj's recommendations about using adequate amounts of water and salt, you can learn how to overcome many serious illnesses. The most fascinating part of the book was his discussion about Lupus. Dr. Batmanghelidj dissects the different signs of Lupus and provides compelling evidence for why Lupus may be caused by a long-standing dehydrated condition and why the traditional medical model has failed in the treatment. This book builds upon the information presented in Dr. Batmanghelidj's other books, Your Body's Many Cries for Water Dr. Batmanghelidj's book is a must read for physicians and patients alike.
