It's quite amazing how easily our bodies can cure maladies by using the most basic of health regimes. One technique that is used in Japan requires a person to drink 1260 milliliters of water (less than a liter and a half) before consuming anything or brushing their teeth. The person should then wait 45 minutes before eating breakfast. The article states that using this regime over an extended period of time has cured Diabetes, Pulmonary Tuberculosis and even Cancer. Perhaps these are isolated cases with a few more factors at work than the article gives credit for (it gives the credit solely to water therapy), nonetheless it's amazing to think that just a little planning every morning could save a person hundreds of dollars in medication per month.
It does cause you to pee a lot though... On second thought, I'll get a large coffee and a Bacon, Egg and Cheese Mac'Muffin. Yeah, and throw one of those hash browns up in the mix.
Actually, not just before breakfast, but any time of the day it is good to drink hot water. There is one exercise, where you drink 3-4 cups of hot water one after another, until you sweat. Then you brush your sweat with a towel and you drink 1 more to restore the lost heat. Thats a great exercise for cleaning the skin and the pores and the whole organism, actually.
