Part 9: Experience Sharing – Multiple Diseases Disappeared and Weight Reduced After Eliminating Water Toxins

Experiences suggest that after eliminating water toxins, illnesses disappear and weight is reduced.

Mrs. W (52 years old) lost her brother to a myocardial infarction at the age of 60, and her sister suffered a stroke two years ago, resulting in hemiplegia. Therefore, the doctor who frequently treated her advised her to take precautions against such thrombotic diseases. As a result, she insisted on drinking 1500 ml of mineral water every day.

However, Mrs. W suffered from a cold syndrome. After drinking water, she felt even colder, urinated less, and the coldness and edema in her lower body worsened. Two years ago, her eyes began to hurt, she felt dizzy when looking outside, her field of vision narrowed, and she sometimes vomited. After diagnosis, Mrs. W was found to have glaucoma and had to undergo treatment.

One day, she was watching TV and drinking green tea at home when she suddenly felt dizzy. After standing up, she felt lightheaded and vomited twice. Luckily, her daughter came home early and quickly called an ambulance, which took her to the hospital.

Blood pressure, urine, blood, electrocardiogram, brain CT scan, and other tests all came back normal. The doctor told her, "You have Meniere's syndrome, caused by excessive fatigue and stress." However, she didn't experience any fatigue or stress. Nevertheless, she accepted treatment and felt much better after three days in the hospital.

Another year passed. On her way home from shopping, she was having a tea break when she suddenly felt her heart pounding and her chest being pushed up. She was then taken to the same hospital by ambulance.

Based on the electrocardiogram results, she was diagnosed with arrhythmia caused by atrial fibrillation. After a week of treatment, her condition improved. Atrial fibrillation is prone to causing blood clots, which can lead to cerebral infarction if they reach the brain. Therefore, the doctor prescribed anticoagulants and advised her to drink plenty of water.

Mrs. W diligently followed the doctor's instructions regarding medication and water intake, but a month later she was hospitalized again due to vomiting blood. The doctor told her this was a side effect caused by the anticoagulant being too strong. Upon weighing herself, she discovered that she had increased from 53 kilograms a year ago to 60 kilograms.

After two weeks in the hospital, Mrs. W's condition improved slightly and she was discharged.

Later, Mrs. W came to my sanatorium for treatment. After listening to her experience, I told her, "Your series of symptoms are caused by water retention. That is to say, excess water cannot be excreted from your body, but accumulates inside, causing a series of symptoms." She looked very suspicious after hearing what I said.

Upon visual inspection, I noticed that Mrs. W's face was pale and showed signs of edema. Palpation revealed that her abdomen was very cold, leading me to deduce that her entire body was chilled. I then had her temperature taken, which was only 35.8℃, indeed quite low.

Tapping Mrs. W's upper abdomen with your hand can produce a splashing sound, indicating that her stomach has stored excess water (water retention can lead to water intoxication), and also indicating that some other parts of her body have stored a lot of water.

So, I explained the relationship between water and disease to Ms. W in detail:

Humans are 60% to 65% water by weight, so weight gain is essentially equivalent to water weight gain. If you ingest a lot of water but don't excrete it, your body gradually stores a lot of water. Just as a plastic bag filled with water will expand at the bottom when hung up, too much water in your body will cause swelling in your lower limbs.

Some people feel cold after being caught in the rain (water → cold); neuralgia and arthritis worsen on rainy days (water → pain); and some people experience migraines as soon as they enter an air-conditioned room (cold → pain). This shows that "cold," "water," and "pain" are interconnected.

No matter how healthy a person is, if they are trapped on a snow-covered mountain, they are very likely to die from the cold, even without external injuries. Similarly, the mortality rate is highest in winter, and the incidence of diseases such as colds, myocardial infarction, and stroke is also highest in winter.

Since excessive water retention is a major factor contributing to "coldness," when the body feels cold, it's important to expel excess water to warm it up. For example, getting chilled while sleeping can cause diarrhea (watery stools), a cold can cause sneezing and a runny nose, severe migraines can cause vomiting (expelling gastric juices), and serious illnesses can cause night sweats (expelling excess water to warm the body and fight the disease).

Let's talk about Mrs. W's case. In order to prevent blood clots, she drank a lot of water every day, which led to an increase in the lymphatic fluid in the inner ear and the watery fluid in her eyes that regulate the balance center, causing lower body edema, balance disorders, and glaucoma.

Some people can effectively eliminate water retention through diarrhea and sweating, so they don't experience other symptoms. However, Mrs. W didn't have diarrhea and rarely sweated, so her body's mechanisms would kick in to accelerate metabolism and eliminate water. However, for every 1°C increase in body temperature, the heart rate increases by 10 beats per minute. In Mrs. W's body, the mechanisms that raise body temperature continued to operate, leading to tachycardia and arrhythmia.

The root cause of all of Mrs. W's symptoms was water retention (water intoxication), yet she continued to consume even more water, leading to low body temperature and worsened blood circulation in her gastric mucosa. Furthermore, she suffered from a stomach ulcer but was taking anticoagulants, which caused her to vomit blood.

After hearing my explanation, Mrs. W's expression gradually brightened, and she understood the root cause of her illness.

I recommended Poria cocos and Atractylodes lancea to help eliminate excess water, as well as cinnamon bark to promote blood circulation. These Chinese medicinal herbs are very effective in treating symptoms such as dizziness, tinnitus, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, anxiety, insomnia, and headaches. I also prescribed Linggui Zhugan Decoction for her and suggested she try the "apple and carrot juice breakfast fasting diet."

Surprisingly, Mrs. W was able to urinate in large quantities the next day, her sweating increased, her lower limb edema gradually disappeared, and she lost a significant amount of weight. Three months later, Mrs. W had returned to her original weight of 53 kilograms. After that, she never experienced a recurrence of glaucoma, Meniere's disease, or arrhythmia.

Now, Mrs. W is living a healthy and comfortable life.
