WATER IS NOT JUST WATER AND DEHYDRATION IS DESTROYING MORE LIVES

People drink:

Coke, malt, zobo, juice, Sweetened yoghurt, energy drinks, tea and coffee…and proudly say: “I drink plenty liquid.”

*But here is the uncomfortable truth:*

Liquids are not water. And your body cannot use drinks the way it uses water. Most people walking around shouting:

“My head is paining me”

“My chest is tight”

“My joints are stiff”

“My BP is rising”

“I’m always tired”

“I feel dizzy”

“My heart is skipping”…are simply DEHYDRATED: a silent emergency your body has been begging you to fix.

You’re not cursed.

You’re not bewitched.

You’re just DRY on the inside. And dry things crack, burn, and malfunction.

LET ME BREAK IT DOWN 

1 The body is 60–70% water not juice, not tea, not carbonated drinks

Every organ in your body depends on water, not beverages.

Your: brain is 75% water

blood is 83% water

lungs are 90% water

muscles are 75% water

joints are lubricated by water

cells run on water

kidneys filter with water

skin glows with water

So every time you replace water with “liquid,” you’re starving your organs.

*Child-friendly analogy:*

Imagine a car engine that needs oil. If you pour Soda inside, will the engine work?

No. Because the engine ONLY understands oil.

Your body ONLY understands water.

2 Dehydration causes 80% of the symptoms Nigerians call “spiritual attack:

1.  Headache Your brain shrinks slightly when dehydrated, pulling on membranes.

2 Dizziness: Your blood becomes thicker; the heart struggles to pump.

3 Palpitations: Low magnesium + dehydration = heart struggling to stabilize rhythm.

4  Fatigue: Your cells can’t produce energy without water.

5 Constipation: Your intestines need water to move waste. Without it, everything becomes stone-like.

6 Mood swings & irritability: Dehydration increases cortisol (stress hormone).

That’s why you feel overwhelmed by small issues.

7 Muscle cramps: Low electrolytes because the body is drying out.

 Hot flashes or random heat Your body can’t regulate temperature without water. (These things are not “enemies.” They are simple biology.)

*Drinks DEHYDRATE you  they don’t hydrate you* 

a. Soft drinks

Contain sugar that pulls water OUT of your cells.

This is called osmotic dehydration ( sugar drags water away, making you even drier).

b. Coffee and tea: Are diuretics (they make you urinate more). So you lose more water than you gain.

c. Alcohol: Blocks anti-diuretic hormones (your body cannot hold water).That’s why people pee continuously after drinking.

d. Sweetened Zobo, juice, malt: Have sugars and acids that create more dehydration.

e. Energy drinks: It stress your adrenal glands, increase cortisol, raise inflammation, and dry your cells further.

*Water is like rain. Drinks are like paint.*

You can pour rain on a plant and it will grow.

But if you pour paint, the plant will die even though paint is also liquid. Your kidneys silently cry when you don’t drink water Kidney stones form when:

•Minerals inside your urine become concentrated,

•There isn’t enough water to dissolve them.

Dehydration thickens your blood. Your kidneys must work extra, extra hard.

Over many years, this leads to: 

•kidney stones

•high creatinine

•chronic kidney disease

Most of these are not village people. They are water deficiency diseases.

 Water is the cheapest detox yet the most ignored People buy:

detox teas

skinny teas

weight-loss tea

“fat burner juice”

cleansing herbs

…but refuse to drink basic water that:

•flushes toxins

•thins the blood

•helps the liver work

•reduces inflammation

•balances electrolytes

•supports the immune system

Detox is not in expensive products.

Detox is in hydration pattern.

*Dehydration affects your hormones:* Your hormones float inside your bloodstream.

If your blood is thick from dehydration, hormones can’t move freely.

This leads to:

•irregular cycles

•mood swings

•poor ovulation

•stress response

•sleep problems

Most hormonal problems are WATER problems before they become medical problems.

The body needs hydration patterns not random sipping

The body hydrates best with:

1 300–500 ml water first thing in the morning

2 Frequent small sips during the day

3 Water 30 mins before meals

4 Water 1 hour after meals

5 Extra water during stress or heat

6 Water before bed (small amount)

7 Electrolyte water

This is how your cells stay alive.

The greatest health lie is that “any liquid is hydration.” *No*. Your body is not deceived.

Your cells know the difference.

You are not sick.

You are thirsty.

Your organs are thirsty.

Your hormones are thirsty.

Your brain is thirsty.

Your cells are thirsty.

Most people are functioning on 30% hydration and wondering why their life feels hard.

Drink water. Not for thirst but for life.

Because your body runs on water the way a plant runs on rain.

Fix your hydration and you will: think clearer,

digest better, sleep deeper, have better moods, reduce inflammation, balance hormones, feel lighter,

feel stronger

ALL WHAT YOU NEED IS WATER.

Heart Attacks- 

Drinking Warm Water:

This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal, but about Heart Attacks. 

The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating.

 For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.

 It is very Harmful to have Cold Drink/Water during a meal. Because,

the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. 

It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food.

It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

French fries and Burgers

are the biggest enemy of heart health.

 A coke after that gives more power to this demon. 

Avoid them for your Heart's & Health.

Drink one glass of warm water just when you are about to go to bed to avoid clotting of the blood at night to avoid heart attacks or strokes.

So, please be a true friend and send this article to people you care about!💞👍🏾🙋🏾

SUGAR IS EVERYWHERE — EVEN WHEN YOU DON’T TASTE IT

Most people think sugar is only what they stir into tea, lick from ice cream, or taste in cakes.

But that’s not true.

Sugar is a master of disguise, it’s hiding in almost everything you eat, even in things that don’t taste sweet.

LET ME BREAK IT DOWN 

Sugar is not just the white crystals you pour into your cup. It’s a type of carbohydrate (a nutrient that gives the body energy).

Your body needs a LITTLE, yes  but only the natural kind from fruits, vegetables, or whole grains.

The problem starts when the sugar you eat is added sugar  the one food companies sneak into processed foods to make them tasty, addictive, and long-lasting.

And they rarely call it “sugar.” They give it new names:

Dextrose

Fructose

Maltose

Glucose syrup

Corn syrup solids

Sucrose

Molasses

It’s the same sugar wearing new clothes  like a thief changing outfit to look innocent.

That’s why even if you don’t eat sugar, you might still be feeding on sugar through:

 Bread

Noodles

Cereal

 Flavored yogurt

 Tomato paste

 Seasoning cubes

Ketchup or salad cream

Fruit juices

Energy drinks

You may say, “But I don’t take sugar.”

Yes, you do, it’s just hidden.

WHAT SUGAR DOES INSIDE YOU

Every time you eat, your food is broken down into glucose (the simplest form of sugar).

Your pancreas (a small organ behind your stomach) releases insulin, a hormone that helps move that sugar from your blood into your cells for energy.

That’s normal and healthy.

But when sugar keeps flooding your system every day  from bread, noodles, snacks, and drinks, your body gets overwhelmed.

Insulin starts struggling.

It’s like a security guard who has opened the gate too many times, he becomes slow, tired, and stops responding properly.

That’s how insulin resistance (a condition where the body stops responding to insulin) starts.

When this continues, it becomes diabetes.

But it doesn’t stop there…

Sugar doesn’t scream when it’s causing harm, it gossips through symptoms people ignore:

1. t iredness 

2. Constanteight gain, especially around the belly

3. Frequent hunger or cravings

4.brain forgetfulness

5. Mood swing

6. Skin breakouts

That’s your body saying, “You’re feeding me what’s destroying me.”

When your blood sugar stays high for long, the excess sugar binds to your cells and proteins  like syrup poured over everything inside you.

That sticky coating causes inflammation (a silent fire that burns tissues from within).

Inflammation is behind most modern sicknesses: arthritis, hormonal imbalance, fibroid growth, even heart problems.

Sugar doesn’t just feed the body, it feeds emotions.

Every time you eat sugar, your brain releases dopamine (the “feel-good” chemical).

That’s why you feel happy, relaxed, or rewarded after eating sweet things, the same hormone released when you experience pleasure or comfort.

But that’s the trap, it’s temporary.

When dopamine wears off, you crave more sugar to feel that same “comfort” again.

So you’re not addicted to food, you’re addicted to the feeling sugar gives you.

That’s why many people eat when sad, anxious, or lonely, they’re soothing emotions, not hunger.

Sugar doesn’t heal emotions; it silences them.

Your brain loves glucose but only in the right amount. sugar makes the brain sluggish.

Research shows excess sugar shrinks the hippocampus (the part of the brain that controls memory and learning).

That’s why high sugar intake is linked to:

1. Poor memory 

2. Trouble focusing

3.Mood swings

4.Anxietyor depression

It’s like flooding a phone’s memory with junk files  soon it becomes slow and overheats.

 SUGAR STARTS IN THE MOUTH

Sugar starts its destruction from the mouth.

Bacteria in your mouth feed on sugar and produce acid, which damages your enamel (the hard outer layer of the teeth).

When your gums are affected, the bacteria can slip into your bloodstream connecting oral health to diseases like heart problems and diabetes.

So, when you protect your mouth, you protect your body.

Sugar also confuses your hormones especially in women.

When insulin goes off balance, it drags other hormones like estrogen and progesterone with it.

That’s why women who take too much sugar may notice:

 Irregular periods

Acne 

Mood swings

Difficulty conceiving

It’s like a choir where one bad singer (sugar) makes every other voice go off-key.

Hormonal imbalance starts small  with cravings, fatigue, or weight gain —but it grows into serious reproductive issues when ignored.

SUGAR, INFLAMMATION & AGING

When your blood sugar keeps spiking, it releases free radicals (tiny unstable molecules that damage your cells).

This causes oxidative stress, a process where your body rusts from the inside, just like iron exposed to water.

That’s why sugar speeds up aging  wrinkles, dull skin, weak joints, and slow wound healing are all connected.

Your body begins to burn quietly while you still look fine on the outside

Sugar gives pleasure but steals peace.

It’s like sin, it comforts you for a moment but leaves you empty afterward.

Healing is not just about what you stop eating, it’s about what you start being conscious of.

God gave you dominion, even over your cravings.

You are not meant to be ruled by taste buds, you are meant to be led by wisdom.

Faith without healthy discipline is self-deception.

You can’t pray for healing while feeding what’s destroying you.

Now, note: Sugar isn’t just in food,it’s in culture.

Birthday? Cake.

Stress? Ice cream.

Heartbreak? Chocolate.

Celebration? Soda.

We don’t just eat sugar, we celebrate with it.

That’s why letting go feels emotional, you’re not just changing food; you’re changing patterns and memories.

But healing begins the day you understand that pleasure isn’t nourishment.

NOTE:

When you reduce/Eliminate sugar even for 7–14 days; miracles start:

1.  Your taste buds reset : fruits start tasting naturally sweet again.

2. Inflammation reduces: less bloating, less pain.

3. Hormones balance: skin clears, cycles stabilize.

4.  Focus sharpens : your mind becomes clear.

5.  Immunity strengthens :your body fights back stronger.

Your body is not your enemy, it’s your ally.

It just needs peace, not poison.

You may not taste sugar,

but your cells do and they know when they’re drowning.

Healing starts the day you stop feeding sickness with sweetness.

The self-help tips  given below may help especially senior citizens, before they can get to the doctor. 

FOR:

You only need to "raise your hands”. By raising your hands above your head, the food stuck in your throat will go down by itself.

*2. NECK PAIN*

Sometimes you wake up in the mornings with pain in the neck. One reason could be the use of wrong pillow.  In such a situation, you only need to lift your feet, then pull your toes and move your feet in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.

*3. CRAMPS*

When you have cramps on your left leg, raise your right hand high, when having cramp in your right leg, raise your left hand high. You will immediately feel better.

*4. TINGLING SENSATION*

When the left foot is tingling, swing your right arm with all your strength, when the right foot is tingling, swing your left arm with all your strength.

 

*Don't just save this information, Please share with other Senior Citizens.*

*May* your *children* not *wish* you an *early* *death* when they *can't* *manage* you again in your *old* *age* .

An *old* *age* without *penny* in your *pocket* is a slow, *agonising* *death* *sentence* !

Be *warned* now...!

There are *three* categories of *people* you cannot do *without* as we are *growing* *older* , your *family* , *people* in your place of *worship* and *childhood* *friends* , who include your *Old* *School* *mates* .

 *Friends* , *take* it or leave it, at *60* and *above* , *loneliness* kills because the  *children* you are *working* *hard* for now will *go* their *ways* to *raise* their *own* immediate *families* and *pursue* their own *destinies* , *just* as *we* did *now* . At that time it's *these* *people* in these *3* - *categories* that *take* away *loneliness* and *keep* your *company* .

Pls, out of your *busy* *schedule* , *set* time out to *say* *HI* ! to your *real* - *old* - *age* - *cure* - *against* - *loneliness* . In the 3- *categories* , the only *one* that *knows* you *better* and can *relate* with you *down* to *heart* are your *childhood* *friends* . 

So *why* are you *feeling* too *big* or *inferior* to come *along* ? It's not *possible* we'll all be at the *same* *level* . *Some* will be *very* *rich* , *moderate* and some *poor* - that is the *beauty* and *misery* of life. *Some* will be so *educated* , while *some* will *still* be *Secondary* *school* *certificate* *holders* .

 *If* you are *up* , *bring* others that are *willing* *up* , and *if* you are *down* , never *bring* those that are *up* *down* with your *mouth* or *attitude* .

 At close to *50* years and *above* , you have *10* to *15* years of *active* *working* life. 

 *Stop* saying *I* *am* this, I *am* *that* . *Flow* into other *people's* *lives* and *let* then *flow* into *yours* .

 *Respect* *friendship* and *value* *relationship* . 

Let us *pass* this to  all *friends* on our  *contacts* , *Rich* or *Poor* . 

 

*You* *can't* *exhibit* *pride.* *Live* *simple.*

Heart Attacks- - -

Drinking Warm

Water:

This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal,

but about Heart Attack's . The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their

meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt

their drinking habit while

eating. For those who like to drink cold water, this

article is applicable to

you. It is very Harmful to have Cold Drink/Water during a meal. Because,

the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you

have just consumed. It will

slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge'

reacts with the acid, it will break down and be

absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats

and lead to cancer . It is best to drink hot soup

or warm water after a meal.

French fries and Burgers

are the biggest enemy of heart health. A coke after that gives more power to

this demon. Avoid them for

your Heart's & Health.

Drink one glass of warm water just when you are about to go to bed to avoid clotting of the blood at night to avoid heart attacks or strokes. 

A cardiologist says if everyone who reads this

message sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least

one life. ... 

So, please be a true friend and send this article to people you care about.

Must read 👆👌
