The brain is very sensitive to dehydration. When the child is dehydrated, it can result in the jamming of thoughts or the inability to retain information as effectively as possible.
Claire Bonnaud, our Adaptogenese Kinesiologist, explains why this happens in our latest post (LINK IN BIO).
Most of the foods we eat today contain chemicals to extend their shelf life in stores. Many of these products contain “toxic” elements that the body has to work on eliminating. The lymphatic system helps eliminate these wastes and its circulatory system is mainly activated by muscle movements.
Some children are able to move constantly so that the over-stressed lymphatic system does its job. However, if the body has trouble eliminating excess toxins, it will use other organs, by “indirect elimination”. For example, the skin with the appearance of acne, the tonsils with repeated sore throats, or the brain with loss of memory function.
That's why one of the first things to do when a child is tired and/or inattentive should be to give him/her water to drink.
Pure water is one way to help the body eliminate toxins. Also, in the event of an organ overload, Adaptogenese Kinesiology can be an effective tool to drain the organs that need it, as well as to correct a possible general dehydration or related to a specific organ.
