Drinking juice or milk as a replacement for water does not work. The chemical make up of water by itself is what the body needs to stay hydrated. When the chemical make up is different than plain water, the fluid should be treated as food. Orange juice can increase histamine production, making allergies or asthma worse. Even pure juice without anything added has natural sugars in it. If juice is the main source of liquid a person consumes, the liver will store the sugars into fat and the person will gain weight. Milk also has sugars in it and can present the same problems. Replacing water with milk or juice leads to dehydration because they are not an adequate source of water.
Dr.Batmanghelidj continues: “Chronic dehydration produces many symptoms, signs, and,eventually, the degenerative diseases. The physiological outcome of the sort of dehydration that produces any of the problems mentioned earlier in the book is almost the same.” Other drinks are okay in moderation as sources of food, but simply cannot replace the water we all need.
