Brain Injuries and Water

Water is what generates life on the planet and when you have the right quality of water in your body you feel different. This I found out over six years ago. As I said I loved water and all I drank was a certain label of bottled water, no matter where I was in the world I searched for this bottled water as I felt to me it was the best, that was until I drank ionized Alkaline Water. I thought I was Miss Fitness and when I drank this Alkaline Water how wrong was I! Little Miss Fitness became Miss unfit my body went through a huge detox and my body was flushing out all nasty stored up toxins, and over a period of time I really began to notice and feel the benefits of this water in my body.

One of the biggest things I noticed from drinking this alkaline water and still I am so glad to this very day, I had very bad acid reflux from the age of SIX, yes I know so young and boy oh boy did I suffer, and three days of drinking this alkaline water I no longer suffered with acid reflux and that is over six years now!.

Also from my head injuries I still suffered with bad sleeping patterns, not any more now from drinking this alkaline water and I really get my sleep and dreamtime in.  Another important key piece of information I would like to share with you, and going back to my TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury).brain-injury-causes-anger

I would like to say I never had this illness until after my accident, and all people both young and old who suffer with head trauma unfortunately can suffer with depression. I call it a silent illness as you may look fine on the outside but there is something else no one can see which is eating you up on the inside. I have spoken with groups and worked with people going through Depression, another common mental health concern which is also becoming common is Anxiety.

This was I can frankly say,and with some of the healing work I had done plus drinking alkaline water, I really started to notice that I was no longer slipping into a dark place which would happen so unexpectedly. One of the most important roles of water I learned is to keep your brain hydrated.

WholeBrain-450x253“Drinking the right Water So Important for the Brain? 

The Brain is 85% water. Optimal brain function depends on water and lots of it. Water is what keeps the brain signals going. When the quality of water is compromised the signals are short circuited. Water supports DNA and is the largest single source of energy. The brain has no way to store water and dehydration comes if all the water lost in a day is not replaced and this deficiency is accumulated. Brain cells need 2x more energy than other cells in the body. Water supplies energy. Nerve transmission consumes one-half of all the brain’s energy (nearly 10% of the whole body’s energy). When hydrated, you have more energy. When the brain is functioning on a full reserve of water, it will function at full capacity and you’ll think better and faster. Creativity is boosted.
Why is Water Important in Advanced Learning & Development Institute’s Brain Programs? 
It is most common that those with brain issues exhibited in Autism, Asberger’s, ADD, Dyslexia, Learning Disabilities, Traumatic Brain Injuries, Post Traumatic Stress, and Accidents do not drink enough water.

Often those with brain challenges will drink almost no water each day, only accentuating the problems in their brain functioning.

Instead, those with brain challenges will favour drinking the very beverages that cause more brain dehydration such as beverages containing caffeine, alcohol, or sugar.

Dehydration affects all functions in the brain. Mayo clinic says that the average adult loses more than 10 cups of water every day through breathing, perspiring, and eliminating wastes. 
Even if a person is 1% dehydrated, there is a 5% decrease in cognitive function. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy, short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing. Studies show that prolonged dehydration of the brain causes cells to begin to shrink. 

Water is an important factor in brain food and productivity. Many think that they can drink soda, coffee, milk, or juice and stay hydrated. This is not true. Especially the brain needs water to send signals from the brain to the rest of the body. 

Water eliminates toxins from the brain as well as delivering nutrients to the brain. When the brain is fully hydrated, the circuitry works well and functions at optimum levels. Water is essential for concentration and mental alertness.
Studies have shown that most people are permanently partially dehydrated. This means that their brain is working considerably below its capacity and potential. When there is brain injury on top of dehydration, the problems associated with dehydration cause more evident and profound symptoms.
To stop the many sources of free radicals attacking the brain and causing brain inflammation, a strong antioxidant and powerful, supportive anti-inflammatory agent like the free radical savaging, ionized, micro clustered, alkaline water is needed. In the ALDI brain program, we observed that all our therapies were enhanced significantly by alkaline Water. Ionized, micro clustered Water and its ability to support the body’s ability to deal with brain inflammation is exceptional. The results that we are now able to achieve with this Water are beyond any normal therapeutic expectations.  ~Dr.Corrinne Allen0
