Summary:
"Chronic headaches...brain fog...
fatigue
...weight gain...insomnia...gut pain...autoimmune conditions. We may think these and other all-too-common modern maladies are due to gluten intake or too much sugar or too little exercise. But there is another missing piece to the health puzzle: Proper
hydration
. Yes, even in this era of Poland Spring many of us are dehydrated due to moisture lacking diets, artificial environments, medications, and over-dependence on water as our only source of
hydration
. For this reason, that
new
diet or exercise plan may fail because our
body
doesn't have enough moisture to support it.
Quench
presents a wellness routine that can reverse all of that, based on breakthrough
new
science
in the field of
hydration
. Readers will be surprised to learn that drinking too much water can flush out vital nutrients and electrolytes. Here is where "gel water" comes in: the water from plants (like cucumber, berries, aloe), which our bodies are designed to truly absorb right down to the cellular level. In fact, Ms. Bria's work as an anthropologist led her to the realization that desert people stay hydrated almost exclusively from what they eat, including gel plants like cactus. Based on groundbreaking
science
from the University of Washington's Pollack Water Lab and other research,
Quench
offers a five-day jump start plan: hydrating meal plans and the heart of the program, smoothies and elixirs using the most hydrating and nutrient-packed plants. Another unique feature of their approach is micro-movements-small, simple movements you can make a few times a day that will move water
through
your
fascia, the connective tissue responsible for hydrating our bodies. You will experience more energy, focus, and better digestion within five days...then move onto the lifetime plan for continued improvements, even elimination of symptoms"--From publisher.
"Based on breakthrough
new
science
in the field of
hydration
,
QUENCH
debunks many popular myths about "getting enough water" and offers a revolutionary five-day jump start plan that shows how better
hydration
can reduce or eliminate ailments like chronic headaches,
weight
gain, gut pain, and even autoimmune conditions"--From publisher.
