Book description
Water is one of the basic necessities of life - no organism can
survive in its absence. In recent years, however, it has become
increasingly clear that our public water supply is not as pure as it
should be and many are questioning its high chemical content. 'Water
scares' are becoming all too frequent. Beaches, seas and oceans
themselves are being increasingly contaminated. Plankton are beginning
to die and the Earth is being deprived of one of its primary sources
of oxygen.
In this important addition to his Nature's Gift series, Jan
de Vries discusses the implications of this self-inflicted damage and
points out the health risks of the various forms of water contamination.
Yet, in its pure form, water is one of nature's greatest healers and
this volume draws on Jan de Vries' extensive experience of the various
water-treatment methods. It provides his readers with guidance and
sensible advice on the benefits to be gained from pure, unadulterated
water, and it's safe use.
Anyone who has been perturbed or confused by the conflicting reports
and guidelines concerning this important issue will welcome such an
informative book.
Although trained as a pharmacist, Jan de Vries turned to alternative
medicine early in his career. He has written extensively on alternative
health issues and is the author of the bestselling alternative medicine
series
