Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Any of us may be wrong. I agree that a large amount of water may be stressful to weak kidneys (but not necessarily so). Why are they weak? That stressing in the long run may be strengthening in certain situations. Stress stimulates certain reactions by the organism. Many times these reactions or the consequences of these reactions are the desired target. Stress is not always bad in that light. When it comes to Ayurveda, we are talking about a very well developed " healing " system that has been around and effectual for thousands of years. If unhealthy, it is doubtful that this therapy would have withstood the test of time. we are also talking about 50+ onces of water, which is not an excessive amount. If one has kidney disease it would be well advised to consult a qualified health professional. -Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: vanadeux<mailto:vanadeux@...> gallstones <mailto:gallstones > Sent: Sunday, August 13, 2006 1:45 AM Subject: Re: One size does not fit all... The protocol may be about detoxing, but to drink a large amount of water like this daily for any amount of time..may stress weak kidneys... I am sure the body can only detox at a certain rate anyway, and really drinking a larger volume I cannot see does have a real benefit..of course I may be wrong! thanks ANNE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
