Sinopsis

Discover how water and temperature affect the body, from digestion to hydration, with practical guidance for everyday health.

This compact guide draws on practical observations about the internal use of water, showing how the amount and timing of fluids can influence digestion, thirst, and comfort. It also explores how cold and warm applications can affect the body, including fevers and relief methods, and it touches on alcohol’s role as a potential food and stimulant.


  • How much water to drink with meals and how it changes digestion and absorption

  • Why sipping at the end of a meal supports digestion and how cold drinks can impact the stomach

  • How temperature and exercise influence water’s effects on tissues and energy

  • Context for alcohol’s effects on the body and its potential role in illness and recovery



Ideal for readers of medical history, physiology, and home health reference, this edition helps you understand timeless ideas about hydration, temperature, and well‑being.

Excerpt from A Handbook of Therapeutics

AS this work is designed for students and young practitioners, the author has omitted, as far as possible, controversial and speculative questions, and has confined himself to the humbler, but to him the more congenial task of stating what is practically known of the application of remedies in disease. It is also right to state that this work is merely an introduction to Therapeutics, and is by no means intended to supersede larger works on this subject; thus the author has omitted many matters alto gether, and has treated of others very briefly.
