"Quench is the first book I have ever read that makes the
connection between true hydration and the function of the
connective tissue network known as fascia. Moreover, Dr. Cohen and
Bria's explanation of what fascia is and what it does is compelling
and brilliant. Finally, a book about the importance of
hydration--and how to actually do it. Hint: It's not about drinking
more water."--ChristianeNorthrup, MD, NewYork Timesbestselling
author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom and The Wisdomof
Menopause
"[Quench] is wow-worthy intel about the liquid we can't live
without."--O Magazine
"Everyone knows that we must drink enough water. But Cohen and
Bria, two authorities on hydration, tell us how we can obtain our
water even more effectively from foods. I found their presentation
refreshing and comprehensive--including a practical guide for
achieving proper hydration in a painless (and delicious) way in
your own kitchen. This book will set the standard for understanding
the life-giving issue of keeping hydrated."--Gerald H. Pollack,
PhD., professor at the University of Washington and author of The
Fourth Phase of Water: Beyond Solid, Liquid, and Vapor
"For those of you who know or suspect that you don't drink enough
to compensate for daily water losses, the good news is you don't
have to rely entirely on your liquid intake to remain well
hydrated.... That's the message in a new book Quench, by Dr. Dana
Cohen, an integrative medicine specialist...and Gina Bria, an
anthropologist...of the Hydration Foundation. I feel comfortable
recommending an increased reliance on these hydrating foods
because, at the very least, they can result in a more nutritious
diet and foster better weight control."--Jane Brody, The New York
Times
"Water is a scientific mystery and a complex subject that most of
us take for granted and don't really understand its profound
healing potential. Enter Dr. Dana Cohen and Gina Bria! They have
written a long overdue and extremely important book on the merits
of optimal hydration. As a clinical cardiologist, I can attest that
the section on fat and hydration is absolutely outstanding! Highly
recommended, this book will help put you on the right track toward
optimum health, hydration and recovery. A must read!"--Dr. Stephen
Sinatra, cardiologist and co-author of Health Revelations from
Heaven
