This book explains the new discovery that lack of water in the body - chronic dehydration - is the root cause of many painful degenerative diseases: asthma, allergies, hypertension, excess body weight, and some emotional problems, including depression.

Playwright, author, and activist Eve Ensler has devoted her life to the female body - how to talk about it, how to protect and value it. Yet she spent much of her life disassociated from her own body - a disconnection brought on by her father’s sexual abuse and her mother’s remoteness. “Because I did not, could not inhabit my body or the Earth,” she writes, “I could not feel or know their pain.” But Ensler is shocked out of her distance.
