The effects of water on the body when taken internally:

1.  Ice cold water contracts the capillaries of the stomach, diminishes the normal supply of blood, and decreases secretions and absorptions. It also reduces the temperature and makes it sometimes subnormal.
We frequently see allopathic doctors apply the ice bag to the head of fever patients and make them drink milk or soda with ice; and the result is that the temperature as a rule becomes subnormal for which the same doctor prescribes medicines which most of the time cause exhaustion when its intoxication is past.


2. Cold water taken early in the morning in empty stomach stimulates the stomach, heart liver and gastro intestinal tract. It also helps to regulate urine, stools and perspiration and thus to eliminate the toxins. It is useful in dyspepsia, biliousness, chronic atonic constipation, obesity, rheumatism, fevers, etc. It imparts refreshed feelings and serves as a tonic.
Water drinking as therapeutic measure is of very ancient origin. Hippocrates prescribed it as a remedy in fevers; the drinking of cold water has been practised among the Egyptians from the most ancient times in the treatment of fevers. Currie also recommended water drinking in the treatment of fever. He says –“while the different modes of applying water to the surface are employed it ought also to be poured into the stomach in large quantities when the patient`s heat will permit it; and the presence of nausea and vomiting is no objection to this practice.”


3. Tepid water is emetic and should be used in all cases of poisoning or whenever a vomiting is felt necessary.

4.  Warm water is useful in kidney diseases.

5. Hot water is useful to those whose chief diet is meat, as it rids the system of the toxins, ptomains, uric acids and other poisonous substances from the system and also in colics, cramps, gastralgia, gastritis, etc. but in all other cases it should be avoided unless recommended by an experienced Hydropathic physician because it debilitates the system while cold water acts as a tonic.

6. Hot water is astringent and a safe pain-killer. It alleviates pain by eliminating the toxins from the body. A teaspoonful of hot water may be taken frequently in flatulence, flatulent colic, bilious troubles, coughs, dysentery, diarrhoea, vomiting, cholera, suppr4ssion of urine, cramps, colic, pains, spasms, etc. chiefly in obstinate coughs and obstinate vominting.

7. Neither very cold nor very hot water should be given at any time to any patient; because both are injurious to the human system.

8. A hot full bath immediately relieves an asthmatic fit; it first excites and then depresses the nervous system. The patient feels at first excitement and then exhaustion.

9. Wet hand rubbing strengthens the heart and chest by quickening the circulation; this mild treatment suits the neurasthenic patients and week persons who are unable for other strong hydropathic measures.

10.  A vapour bath is the best means of ridding the system of its excess of serum and of restoring the tone of the nervous and muscles and every man who wants to keep in the best working form should take one or two every week.

Hydropathy, it is a term used for a system of treatment of the diseases by means of water. The proper use of water not only helps us to preserve our health but also to regain it when it is lost or impaired by eliminating all the impurities from our body. As we knew that, impurities in the body are the cause of all diseases. A healthy human body contains 70% of pure water. The body loses some water daily through the skin, lungs, urinary organs and bowels, and to continue to be healthy we must supply the same quantity of pure water to the body from the food and drink taken daily and Nature helps us in doing so if we observe her laws implicitly. The water is a combination of two gases named Oxygen and Hydrogen. The formula of pure water is H 2 O. But generally, water usually contains lim

Digital Typesetters – Scanning & Laser Technology makes life better and easier is a true line with true meaning. For example, digital computers and digital typesetters increase the work output in less time. The digital computer, in combination with the high resolution cathode ray tube (CRT) and laser, is revolutionizing the communications industry, because digital computers have no mechanical parts and are entirely composed of electronic components, they set and process type at speeds never thought possible. In addition, the text type from digital typesetters has now been developed to rival the quality of photo-type. Knowledge of digital computer functions is critical to an understanding of digital typesetting. A digital computer is an electronic device that uses electricity to process information. It can perform repetitive logical and arithmetic operations and store the results of those operations in memory. A computer system is composed of hardware software, and firm

Benefits & Popular Auto ID Technologies

Image
Benefits & Popular Auto ID Technologies Automatic Identification and Data Capture or Automatic Identification (Auto ID) is the terms used to describe the direct entry of data into a computer system. These technologies are very useful and beneficial. Some important benefits of Automatic Identification Technologies are: 1. Accuracy: Manual entry through the keyboard has its drawbacks. Studies have revealed that a human operator will commit one undetected error for every three hundred character input. Adopting the bar code technology will improve input by a factor of 10,000 times, i.e. one error for every three million characters entered. With more recent developments in the bar code technology and with the sophisticated error correction techniques, the error rate has reduced still further. This results in saving considerable time and costs of tracking down and rectifying the errors from the manual data entry system. 2. Economics: Because of the speed and reduction of

Solar Energy

Solar Energy The Sun gives us energy to survive on Earth. For understanding this sentence we take a simple example, ‘Trees and plants, convert Sun energy into fruits by the process of photosynthesis, and these fruits are our food, which gives us energy to do work’. So, there is no doubt that the Sun energy is very essential for us. On other side It`s quite interesting to know that, the energy supply from the Sun is truly enormous, on average the Earth`s surface receives about 1.2 × 10 17 W of solar power. This means that in less than one hour enough energy is supplied to the Earth to satisfy the entire energy demand of the human population over the whole year. Indeed, it is the energy of sunlight assimilated by biological organisms over millions of years that has made possible the industrial growth as we know it today. If we look back in history and find discovery about solar energy then, it was over 150 years when, in 1839, Edmund Becquerel observed that ‘electrical cur

Bar Code

Image
Bar Code A bar code is a code in a printed form which can be easily read by a machine connected to the computer. The information or data is encoded using the width of printed bars, the width of spaces between bars, and the relative positions of wide or narrow bars and spaces (i.e. a unique wide or narrow combination of black and white bars). You can easily see this kind of bar codes on all imported goods, journals and books. Almost every field use this technology for their products. These bar code are the most cost effective and least expensive way of encoding information since the bar code labels can be printed on plain paper, which the machine can easily read and encode the data or information.   Bar code symbologies are essentially alphabets in which different widths of bars and spaces are combined to form characters and ultimately, a message. Because there are many ways to arrange these bars and spaces (which are printed in a defined ratios), numerous symbol
