Literally 40% water? NO! Perhaps it was a test that meant 40 % less that ideal. Very different callibration.
I hope your ND is straightening out your diet to one that is alkalinizing and mineralizing. High water content food free of toxins. If he/she is supplement oriented I would run.....
Nature can give you much more benefit...simply and easily. THink wheat grass, sprouts and veggy juices. Lay off fruit, meat and dairy, and processed grains (bread etc). GO raw organic for optimal healing.
Being in line with nature will allow a body to heal anythiny. We just need to free up the blockages to its ongoing natural propensity to heal. Toxins, poor nutrition, and negative thoughts are blockages.
