My new experiment with sea salt
Since my son is undergoing treatment under the advice of Dr. Dy Liacco and one of his recommendations is for my son to consume a good amount of sea salt per day, as a parent it is my duty to do the same for myself so I know what he is going through. For the anti-salt and pro-salt camps, we know we are using sun dried Philippine sea salt that is available for 5 pesos small bag in the local market.
Dr. Dy Liacco recommends my boy consume some 1/2 teaspoon sea salt per day and drink plain water… not coconut juice. This is part of the water cure recipe. The important thing is to properly hydrate the person with measured amounts of salt and water.
I have been experimenting with myself with the no salt camp for a few months now… the no salt camp includes Charlotte Gerson, Dr Henry Bieler, Aajonus Vonderplanitz… now I’ll try what the pro-salt camp suggests… Dr Wong, Dr Dy Liacco, Curezone. Again I would like to stress that the salt we are using is real sea salt… not the factory salt made using chemicals.
I have the inkling that the use of salt with water especially on a majority cooked food diet helps with hydration and the production of hydrochloric acid. Dr. Dy Liacco is a firm supporter of a raw food diet, including lots of raw fatty meat and encourages an acidic stomach to digest such meats.
My experiment with sea salt will revolve around the water cure recipe by the late Dr. Batmanghelidj, M.D.
The Water Cure Recipe:
Drink 1/2 your body weight of water in ounces, daily. Example 180 lb = 90 oz. of water daily. Divide that into 8 or 10 oz. glasses and that’s how many glasses you will need to drink, daily. Use 1/4 tsp. of salt for every quart of water you drink. Use salt liberally with food. As long as you drink the water, you can use the salt. Avoid caffeinated or alcoholic drinks. These are diuretics and will dehydrate you. Every 6 oz. of caffeine or alcohol requires an additional 10 to 12 oz. of water to re-hydrate you.
P.S. (USE Clean Water, Use non-refined, ocean salt ONLY )
