Therapeutic Value of Distilled Water in Medical Treatment
Recent reports from an American medical journal indicate significant therapeutic benefits of distilled water when administered through injections for certain diseases. This has spurred further investigations into alternative treatments using water.
Johns Hopkins University Hospital's New Approach
- An innovative treatment for serious burns has been developed, showcasing remarkable success.
- A patient with severe burns covering two-thirds of his body was placed in a water bath for six consecutive days and nights.
- The water in the bath was frequently changed to maintain hygiene and effectiveness.
- The patient was also made to consume large quantities of water during the treatment process.
Outcomes and Claims
The exact mechanism of how this treatment works has not been detailed. However, the hospital asserts that this approach could change the prognosis for patients with severe burn injuries.
- Traditionally, burns as severe as those suffered by this patient would be deemed incurable, often leading to a hopeless outcome.
- Contrary to previous expectations, the patient is expected to recover fully and be discharged within a week, as per statements from the hospital and reported by the “Chemist and Druggist”.
