To go to Dr. Batmanghelidj's water cure website CLICK HERE Education Born in Iran in 1931, Dr. F. Batmanghelidj attended Fettes College in Scotland and graduated from St. Mary’s Hospital Medical School of London University. There he studied under Sir Alexander Fleming, Nobel Prize recipient for the discovery of penicillin. Early practice and imprisonment Dr. Batmanghelidj practiced medicine in the U K before returning to Iran where he helped develop hospitals and medical centers. He also established sports projects for the young. The Iranian Revolution (1979) saw Batmanghelidj placed in the infamous Evin Prison as a political prisoner for two years and seven months. There he discovered the healing powers of water, what was later termed “the water cure.” The discovery or serendipity hits again! As Dr. “Batman” tells it, one night, he treated a fellow prisoner with severe peptic ulcer pain. With no medications available, Dr. B. gave him two glasses of water. Within eight minutes, his pain disappeared. Dr. B instructed him to drink two glasses of water every three hours. He was pain free for his four remaining months in the prison. Dr. B. treated 3,000 fellow prisoners suffering from stress-induced peptic ulcer with just water. In prison he conducted research into the power of water in preventing and relieving many other chronic degenerative diseases. Evin was an ideal “stress laboratory.” Dr. B. chose to stay an extra four months in prison to complete his research into the relationship of dehydration and bleeding peptic ulcer. His findings were published in the editorial of the Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology in June 1983. The New York Times Science Watch reported his research on June 21, 1983.

At the Foundation for the Simple in Medicine he researched the effects of chronic unintentional dehydration on the human body.

At the Foundation for the Simple in Medicine he researched the effects of chronic unintentional dehydration on the human body. His findings were published in the Foundation’s “Journal of Science in Medicine Simplified” in 1991 and 1992. Fereydoon Batmanghelidj wrote his first self-help book “Your Body’s Many Cries for Water” in 1992. In it he observed that a dry mouth is not a reliable sign of dehydration. The body signals its water shortage by producing pain. Dehydration actually produces pain and many degenerative diseases, including asthma, arthritis, hypertension, angina, adult-onset diabetes, lupus and multiple sclerosis. Dr. F. Batmanghelidj spent the last 20 years of his life promoting global awareness of the healing powers of water through radio and television programs and lectures. He has left a body of important books and more than a dozen educational audio and video seminars. An international community has embraced “the water cure” as developed by Dr F Batmanghelidj. His great book “Your Body’s Many Cries for Water” has been translated into 15 languages inspiring readers all over the world. Dr. F. Batmanghelidj died of pneumonia on November 15, 2004, in the U.S.A. at the age of 73.
