How water cures gout is common sense.
The water you drink and electrolytes you take are going into your body. The body transports the water and electrolytes to the cells. The cells among other things, eliminate waste products. One such, the buildup of uric acid. The uric acid when it build up, causes the crystals that becomes gout.
If you take a stick and stir the bottom of a pond, the water gets muddy. If you take the same stick and stir the bottom of a creek, the water may get muddy but will soon clear up. Stir up the bottom of a brook, It will be gone in seconds. Stir up the bottom of a river, you will never see it.
Our bodies do not need rivers of water. We do need a daily flow of water for optimal health. We also need electrolytes to help transfer the water to the insides of our cells.
Proper hydration of the body helps prevent the build up of crystals that lead to the pain.
Gout, a painful form of arthritis, is the build up of excess uric acid that result in crystals that cause pain in joints, most often the lower joints and especially the big toe.
What Gout Can Do to You:
In addition to the big toe, gout can affect the:
A gout attack can be brought on by stressful events, alcohol or drugs, or another illness. In many instances, certain foods increase the possibility of having an attack. Early attacks usually get better within 3 to 10 days, even without treatment. The next attack may not occur for months or even years.
Many have found that they can enjoy foods they had to avoid once they started the water cures protocol. We are all different in our weaknesses and strengths. The one commonality is we need water and we need electrolytes. Once we provide those basic needs, our bodies function better and we have the best quality of life possible.

It is amazing how so many things that are new to us were common knowledge in the past. One basic practice of the Water Cures protocol is to drink at least 30-45 minutes before and 2 1/2 hours after a meal. This is not a new thought however. Notice what a magazine from 1925 had to say...
"Drink plenty of water two hours after each meal; drink none just before eating; and a small quantity if any at meal time. Do not take a bath until two hours after eating a meal, nor closer than one hour before eating. Drink a full glass of water both before and after the bath." (Golden Age, Sept. 9, 1925, pp. 784-785)

Listen to your body. Do not use this if you are under a doctors care. Do not stop taking medications without consulting your doctor. If you are on medications, consult your doctor if you start the Water Cures Protocol as it may change your needs.

Everyone knows uric acid forming into crystals is the cause of the gout pain.
What you don't know is why salt works to eliminate gout.
When the uric acid unites with sodium, it forms sodium urate.
Since sodium urate is not needed by the body, it gets rid of it.
The concentration of sodium urate is 4 times greater than uric acid which has an acidic pH of 6.3. Uric acid is 20 times less soluble than sodium urate, uric acid will precipitate first (change into a crystal form).
Since the sodium urate is more easily suspended and will not precipitate like sodium urate, the body can more easily be eliminated from the body.
Hi, my name is Sharon. The webmaster of this site is my nurse, my personal water coach and my husband.
As this site was first being built, I had a headache and as usual took an Ibuprofen. Impatient for it to start working, I decided to try the Water Cures. I took a pinch of salt and a glass of water. Then I took a second pinch of salt and another glass of water. My headache was gone in less than 5 minutes.
From my personal experience, it usually takes 30 to 45 minutes for Ibuprofen to work. Some have found it takes ibuprofen 24 minutes to start working.
Yet on the Water Cures protocol, my headache was gone in 5 minutes.
Its simple: give your body what it needs and your body will give you what you need, the ability to feel great.
Water Cures was the solution for the elimination of my headache. It is what I will use from now on.
Why not give it a try yourself.
