I checked out this website. The aphorism "If it sounds too good to be true,
it probably is" pertains here.
It always amazes me that the medical establishment is involved in some sort
of conspiracy but I seem to have been left out of the little secrets. Don't
you think if water could cure all the things listed we would use it? There
is no benefit accrued to doctors who prescribe medication instead of
"natural" cures. If I could earn my living by getting people to use water
for so many things, I would be rich...and this Dr. Batmanghelidj may well be
rich from selling his quakery.
Here are some of the abhorent lies from his website:
"It is surprising that none of the frequently quoted and media-popularized
doctors has reflected on the fact that cholesterol levels are measured from
blood taken from the veins, yet nowhere in medical literature is there a
single case of cholesterol having caused obstruction of the veins. Venous
blood moves far slower than arterial blood and thus would be more inclined
to have cholesterol deposits if the assumption of "bad cholesterol" were
accurate. This mistake by us in the medical community, and its
capitalization by the pharmaceutical industry, has caused an ongoing fraud
against society."
This reflects either a total misunderstanding of physiology on his part or
an outright lie.
"I hold the idea that the AIDS is not a viral disease, but is a metabolic
disorder precipitated by an exaggerated way of life."
Statements like that are dangerous to global health.
"This shearing force of toxic blood causes abrasions and minute tears in the
lining of the arteries that can peel off and cause embolisms of the brain,
kidneys and other organs. To prevent the damaged blood vessel walls from
peeling, low-density (so-called "bad") cholesterol coats and covers up the
abrasions and protects the underlying tissue like a waterproof bandage until
the tissue heals."
A total fabrication.
My warning: ignore this website. There is no truth on it at all.
