3. THE ART AND SCIENCE OF HEALING
God pledged Himself to keep this human machinery in healthful action if the
human agent will obey His laws and cooperate with God. (3)
If man will first trust in God, rest, exercise, be temperate, dress with modesty and
use His simple agents properly, and apply principles of hygiene in using His
temple, then God will continue to cooperate with the human agent in
providing His natural agents of sunlight, water, clean air, life bearing
grass, seeds and herbs, in the prevention of disease. (4), (5), (6), (7)
There are many ways of practicing the
healing art, but there is only one way that
Heaven approves.
God's remedies are the simple agencies of
nature that will not tax or debilitate the
system through their powerful properties.
(1)
The work of cultivating the heart is
profitable at all times and in all places. (2)

8. WHAT IS THE HUMAN BODY MADE OF?
There are at least seven elements or components
that are essential for the survival of human beings.
The essential elements for life in the human
organism consist of: Carbohydrates, fats, proteins,
minerals, vitamins, enzymes and water.
When we do not have adequate amounts of these
essential components, the body suffers diseases
and sometimes death.

9. WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THE HUMAN
BODY IS MADE OF WATER?
70%

10. HOW CAN ONE SYSTEMATICALLY DESCRIBE
THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF WATER
AS A NATURAL REMEDY?
There are many Systems in the body that network
with each other in the art and science of healing.
The health benefits of Water apply to the:
•Digestive System
•Respiratory System
•Immune System
•Nervous System
•Urinary System
•Integumentary System
•Circulatory System
•Reproductive System
•Endocrine System
•Skeletal System
•Muscular System
• Hematologic System
10

11. EFFECTS OF WATER ON THE
DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
11

12. WHAT IS THE FUNCTION OF WATER IN
THE DIGESTIVE TRACT ?
Water is a vehicle
that facilitates the
transports nutrients
through the digestive
tract.
This process helps in
the absorption of
nutrients and in the
elimination of toxins.
13

13. The best time
to drink water
is 15 minutes
before or one
hour after
eating.
WHEN IS THE BEST TIME
TO DRINK WATER?
13

14. The digestive tract releases
between 2 - 3 gallons of
digestive juices per day.
When we drink water with
meals, we dilute the digestive
juices. This dilution in turn
interferes with the bodies
natural ability to break down
and process nutrients, as well
as processing and eliminating
waste.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT THAT WE DRINK
WATER 15 MINUTES BEFORE OR
ONE HOUR AFTER EATING? 14

15. The problem with juices is
that they contain refined
sugars.
Refined sugars make the
blood sugar rise too fast.
Sugars that rise too fast can
contribute to diabetes.
DOES IT MATTER IF I DRINK JUICES
INSTEAD OF WATER?
15

16. EFFECTS OF WATER ON THE
CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
16

17. WHAT ROLE DOES WATER PLAY IN THE
CIRCULATORY SYSTEM?
•Water is sent through the
digestive tract to the
circulatory system.
Thereafter, water is sent
throughout the body to the:
•Nervous System
•Respiratory Tract
•Lymphatic System
•Urinary Tract
• Integument System of the
Skin.
17

18. WHAT ARE SOME OF THE FUNCTIONS OF
WATER IN THE BLOOD?
The Circulatory
System is the
highway and water
is one of the
vehicles that when
properly applied,
facilitates the
transport of water
soluble fluids
throughout the
body.
18

19. EFFECTS OF WATER ON THE
HEMATOLOGIC SYSTEM
19

20. WHAT ARE SOME OF THE
FUNCTIONS OF WATER
IN THE BLOOD STREAM ?
As an adjuvant to the Hematologic System water is one of the
vehicles that when properly applied, facilitates the transport of
water soluble life bearing nutrients, to all of the organs in their
respective tracts and systems in the human body and helps to
prevent clots.
20

21. WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THE
BLOOD IS WATER?
Aprox.
93%
21

22. EFFECTS OF WATER ON THE
NERVOUS SYSTEM
22

23. WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THE BRAIN
IS MADE OF WATER?
Aprox. 85% of the
Gray Matter is
Water.
Headaches often
times are the
result of
dehydration.
23

24. EFFECTS OF WATER ON THE
SKELETAL SYSTEM
24

25. WHAT FUNCTION DOES WATER HAVE
ON THE SPINAL COLUMN?
Every disc is made of
cartilage.
All cartilage has a certain
amount of gelatin in it.
Due to the liquid nature
of gelatin made of
water, every disc acts
as a water bed that can
cushion a lot of weight.
25

26. EFFECTS OF WATER ON THE
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
26

27. WHAT FUNCTION DOES WATER HAVE
IN THE RESPIRATORY TRACT ?
• Oxygen would not be able
to pass from the airway to
the blood if it were not for
the presence of water in
the respiratory tract.
• Water vapor dissolves
oxygen and facilitates the
transport through the
membranes of the lungs.
27

28. EFFECTS OF WATER ON THE
IMMUNE SYSTEM
28

29. WHAT FUNCTION DOES WATER PLAY
IN THE IMMUNE SYSTEM?
Water helps to
eliminate toxins
through the
respiratory, gastro-
intestinal, skin and
urinary tracts and it
facilitates the
transport of white
blood cells to and from
the site of invasion.
29

30. EFFECTS OF WATER ON THE
URINARY SYSTEM
30

31. HOW MANY GLASSES OF WATER
SHOULD WE DRINK PER DAY?
8-10 GLASSES
OF WATER
31

32. IS THERE ANY RACE MORE IMPORTANT TO RUN
TO THAN FROM THE WATER FAUCET
TO THE BATHROOM?
THE LIGHTER THE JOCKEY,
THE LESS THE RACEHORSE
HAS TO CARRY.
THE LESS THE RACEHORSE
HAS TO CARRY, THE FASTER
IT CAN RUN.
MANY JOCKEYS HAVE LOST
THE FUNCTION OF THEIR
KIDNEYS AT THE EXPENSE
OF WINNING RACES.
32

33. WHAT ARE GOOD MEASURES FOR ME TO
REMEMBER FOR THE WELLBEING
OF MY URINARY TRACT ?
Remember the
color and smell of
your urine.
When it is not clear
and when it smells
bad it is a sign that
you need to drink
more water.
33

34. WHEN YOU DRINK WATER FROM A DRINKING FOUNTAIN, HOW MANY
SIPS OF WATER DO YOU NEED TO DRINK TO MAKE UP
ONE GLASS OF WATER?
This depends on the
size of your mouth,
but generally
speaking, in an
adult, it is
somewhere
between 15 - 20
sips of water.
34

35. WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF I DO NOT
DRINK ENOUGH WATER?
Dehydration
causes headaches,
dizziness,
confusion, vascular
collapse and
death.
35

36. THE INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM
36

37. WHAT IS THE MAXIMUM CAPACITY THAT
THE BODY HAS TO SWEAT PER HOUR ?
We can sweat
somewhere
between 1.5 - 4
liters per hour.
This represents
about 8 lbs of
fluids per hour.
37

38. WHAT CAPACITY DOES THE BODY HAVE TO
MAINTAIN A CONSTANT TEMPERATURE?
DEPENDING ON THE HUMIDITY OF THE AIR,
WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE VARIES
BETWEEN 30 TO 170 DEGREES F., IN AN
EXPOSED BODY WITH ABUNDANT ACCESS TO
WATER, CAN MAINTAIN ITSELF FOR MANY
MANY HOURS WITH A CORE TEMPERATURE
BETWEEN 98 A 100 DEGREES.
38

39. IN WHAT WAY DOES THE HUMAN BODY WORK LIKE A
RADIADOR IN A CAR, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE
THERMO-REGULATORY SYSTEM OF THE SKIN ?
JUST LIKE A RADIADOR REGULTES THE TEMPERATURE OF A
MOTOR OF A CAR, WHEN WE SWEAT OR SHIVER THE
TEMPERATURE IN THE BODY IS REGULATED.
39

40. WHAT SUBSTANCES AFFECT THE BODIES
ABILITY TO SWEAT OR DEVELOP
GOOSE BUMPS?
Stimulants such as caffeine and nicotine and
depressants such as alcohol, affect negatively, the
capacity of the body to regulate one’s temperature
40

41. John 4:13-15 “Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever
drinketh of this water shall thirst again: But whosoever drinketh
of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water
that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up
into everlasting life. The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this
water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.”
What wisdom can we learn
about the gift that Jesus offers
the woman at the well which
springs up into everlasting
life?
Do you also thirst for a long
term solution to your health
problems which Jesus will give
you freely if you will only ask?
