Water Is Essential For Life!
Let Genie Read This for You

 

We Need to Drink about 2.6 liters of Water Every Day

Our bodies are at least 60% - 70% water. Water is involved in almost bodily function. Water requirements vary greatly from person to person. On the average, we need to drink about 2.6 liters of water daily to allow optimal body functioning. You could live for weeks without food, but without water you would dehydrate and die within days. A mere 2% loss of the water surrounding your cells can cause a 20% decrease in your energy levels.

 

Water is Crucial for All Bodily Functions

Biochemical changes in human cells can only take place with water, to facilitate growth, and to maintain life and health. Water serves to enhance blood circulation, regulate body temperature as well as aid in the carrying of oxygen to body cells. In addition, water also maintains the acid/alkaline balance. This balance is essential for the optimum digestion and absorption of nutrients. Another vital function of water is in the area of cleansing.

 

Water is Necessary for Flushing Toxic & Wastes from the Body

Today we have pesticides and herbicides in our fruits and vegetables; heavy metals in our fish; antibiotics and growth hormones in our meat products; and additives, preservatives and artificial colorings in our processed foods and drinks. Many degenerative diseases have been attributed to the chemicals and carcinogens found in our water, air and food. These toxins if retained in the body can give rise to problems such as headaches, fatigue, pain, chronic illness and even cancer. Water is the best defense against toxicity in the body because it flushes out poisonous waste, but you have to drink pure, healthy water, or it will only add to the problem.

 

Water Prevents Dehydration

The average newborn is 90% hydrated, but the average 65-year-old is only 55% hydrated! All of the symptoms of aging are accompanied by a slow dehydration of cells. The first signs of dehydration are headaches, insomnia, fatigue, and lack of mental alertness.

Many doctors now believe that dehydration is the root cause of all kinds of ailments, from acne and indigestion, to arthritis and obesity, to more serious conditions such as heart problems, hypertension and even cancer.

The link between dehydration, degeneration, and disease has led researchers to do in-depth studies of the functions and properties of water.

 

“What doctors label as disease is 'deep dehydration'.” - F. Batmanghelidj, M.D.

 

 

Is the Water You're Drinking Dead or Alive?

Not all water hydrates cells and supports life functions equally. Living water can easily penetrate the cells and perform all of its functions. Dead water, on the other hand, must be reformed and revitalized by the body before it can do its job. Doctors and researchers have determined that drinking living water improves health and longevity but drinking dead water allows cells to dehydrate.

 

Most of Us Drink Dead Water
Almost everything that man has done to water has destroyed or degraded it. We have contaminated nearly every natural water supply on earth with pollution, toxic waste and hundreds of thousands of chemicals.

There are over 120,000 types of chemicals in use today, with another 1,000 new ones added each year. All of these chemicals find their way into our water sources.

 

Water Can "Die"
In some situations water is full of energy, sometimes it is sluggish and exhausted; in some conditions it dies. “To an untrained eye dead water still looks like water. So we expect it to do the same job as healthy energetic water.” Charlie Ryrie, author of The Healing Energies of Water

 

Tap Water
Water treatment plants use basic filtration and chlorine to remove microbes and contaminants from our polluted water. This process makes the water “safe”, because it kills most germs and bacteria, but it also destroys water’s life-giving properties.

Chlorine is not good for water because it has a strong ionic pull that easily distorts water’s healthful crystalline structure. It isn’t good for the body either. Chlorine has been associated with heart problems, cancer, and arteriosclerosis. Boiling water does not get rid of chlorine--it changes it into a carcinogen called trihalomethane. Another problem is that tap water tends to have an erratic pH (as low as 5.5 or as high as 10) which disturbs the body’s natural acid/alkaline balance of pH 7.35.

Keeping water in stagnant storage tanks and forcing it to travel through miles of pipes strip water of its natural energy and oxygen, disrupting the hexagonal clusters. By the time tap water reaches you, it is usually devoid of any healthful properties.

Filtered Water
Many filters remove chlorine and heavy metals, but most still allow certain contaminants to pass through. Parasites like Cryptosporidium and Giardia are not killed by chlorine or UV light and may easily pass through simple carbon filters. Radioactive and volatile chemicals are also very hard to remove.

Distilled Water
Distillation devices do a better job of getting rid of harmful substances than simple filters do, but they take everything else out of the water too -- including beneficial minerals that are necessary for health and longevity.

Bottled Water
Most bottled water is tap water that has been processed through a reverse osmosis or carbon filtration system. Some companies add minerals and in some (but not all) countries, if the label says “spring water” it might have actually come from a natural spring…but in all of these cases, the water is still processed and artificially contained for long periods of time.

 

Special Properties of Living Water.

  

It is Clean, Pure, and Anti-Pathogenic
Fresh unpolluted natural water is healthy, self-cleansing, and resistant to disease-causing microbes. The precise reason for this is not yet known, but research at the Adolfo Lutz Institute in Sao Paulo, Brazil shows that living water inhibits the proliferation of many types of microbes.

   

It is Alive with Vital Energy
The body’s trillions of cells vibrate and pulsate to a complex system of harmonic frequencies. This pulsation of life enables cells to communicate with each other and perform crucial biological and chemical exchanges. Any disruption of this harmonic pulsation can cause pain, discomfort and disease.

 

Living water resonates with the energetic vibrations of your body. When you drink living water, it amplifies, animates and perpetuates your own life force. Drinking dead water on the other hand, has a detrimental effect because your body has to expend precious energy “turning it on” and giving it energy before it can be used for bodily functions.

 

It is Infused with Vital Oxygen
Oxygen is the fuel of life – the more you have of it, the better your body functions, and the healthier you are. Most of us think that we only take oxygen in through the air, but actually oxygen that is dissolved in water offers a much more direct route to our cells. Oxygen in our drinking water can reach the blood in 30 seconds; the brain in one minute; the skin in 10 minutes; and the liver, heart and kidneys in 20 minutes!

Living water offers abundant oxygen that is readily available to your cells. It also augments the oxygen you inhale which is especially helpful if you breathe poor quality air or if aging or poor health have slowed down your oxygen uptake.

 

   

It is Rich with Ionic Minerals and Trace Minerals
As water moves through earth, it gathers minerals and trace minerals, which are needed to conduct and generate billions of tiny electrical impulses in the body. Without these impulses, not a single muscle, including your heart, would be able to function, nor could growth and repair be accomplished. Dr Linus Pauling, two-time Nobel Prize winner, states: “You can trace every sickness, every disease, and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.”
 
The minerals and trace minerals in water are the best for you because they are in ionic form - the form most bio-available to your cells (even better than chelated or colloidal minerals).


 

It has the Perfect pH
Natural water with its rich mineral content has a slightly alkaline pH. It supports the average pH7.35 of your body fluids which is necessary for transporting oxygen, regulating metabolism, eliminating acidic waste, and preventing disease.

 

It has a Vital Hexagonal Structure
Healthy water remembers its life as ice. It is neatly ordered in small molecular clusters that form perfect hexagonal shapes with rich minerals snuggled inside them.
 
The healthiest water has beautiful crystal hexagonal formations even in its liquid form, but they become most apparent just before freezing. Unhealthy water on the other hand, typically has large or pentagonal molecular clusters or remains chaotically formless even as it starts to freeze.
 
Why is cluster structure important? Because it matches the clustered water found inside and around our body cells. Small clusters are perfectly designed to interact with other molecules, to communicate using energetic vibrations, and to slip easily through cellular membranes--carrying nutrients in and lifting toxic waste out of our cells to keep them young and vibrantly healthy. Large clusters are chaotic, clumsy and far less useful to the body.

 

 

Only healthy water can form beautiful hexagonal snowflake- like crystals. Snow water, water in fruits and vegetables, cold water from deep wells and pristine streams - all have the ideal hexagonal structure.

 

 

Tap water cannot form crystal hexagonal structures even when it freezes.

Of all water’s properties, its hexagonal structure is probably the most important, but is also the most fragile. It is easily destroyed by environmental contaminants and modern water treatment processes.

 

The Structure of Water Determines Our Health
Water molecules are made of one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms (H2O). The relationship between these atoms gives water a unique electrical polarity. Water’s unique ability to form and transform; create and recreate; penetrate and dissolve anything it touches; and to collect and deposit information wherever it flows is what gives all living things their vital dynamism.
 
Water molecules bond easily with other molecules. In other words, water is extremely “sociable”. It eagerly seeks to mingle with other elements and gladly picks up “hitchhikers”. This is a great feature if the water picks up good things like rich nutritious minerals and life-giving oxygen, but it’s a very bad thing when it picks up toxic pollutants, nasty chemicals or disease-causing organisms and then enters your bloodstream!

 

How Safe Is Our Drinking Water?

  

   

Pollution of Our Water is Extensive

The world uses 35,000 types of chemicals. Another 1,000 types are added annually. These chemicals find their way, by means of industrial and chemical wastes, into rivers, reservoirs and lakes. These rivers, reservoirs and lakes are the sources of drinking water. To add to the problem, pollution from vehicles is washed down by rain, forming acid rain which also end up in these rivers and lakes. 

 

The Pollutants are Many...

Pollutants include substances such as heavy metals, radioactive compounds, organic wastes like fertilizers, bacteria and rust. These pollutants are not effectively removed by the conventional filtration process. 

Current Water Treatment Methods Are Not 100% Effective

Water authorities all over the world find it expensive and impractical to completely eliminate pollutants. Even after water has been treated and filtered to become tap water, problems may still occur. These come in the following forms:

  • THMs (carcinogens or cancer causing agents). These are created when water containing chlorine is added into water during treatment to remove bacteria.

  • Bacteria contamination through broken pipes and rust found in water storage tanks. 

The Hidden Problems of Chlorinated Water.










The Hidden Dangers of Consuming Chlorinated Water

Chlorine destroys vitamin B, C and E. Its potential dangers are linked to high cholesterol deposits, heart attacks, strokes, kidney/respiratory damage and even cancer. Chlorine causes cholesterol to be deposited in arteries. Furthermore, chlorine reacts with humic acid from decaying matter to form cancer causing Trihalomethanes (THMs).

Medical experts worldwide now link serious illness to drinking water containing chlorine and other pollutants.

Do We Still Need to Boil Water? 

Our forefathers boiled water before drinking because in those days, the main sources of water were from wells, streams and rivers. Without chlorination, the water in these sources contain bacteria. Hence, at that time, boiling was essential to eliminate bacteria. Chlorine is now added into water by the water authorities to eliminate bacteria. Since water from the tap is already largely free from bacteria, why then do we need to boil water?

What Happens When We Boil Chlorinated Water?

Good water should be fresh, with dissolved minerals and oxygen. "Living" water has continuous water molecular movements in contact with oxygen in the air.

Boiling "destroys" oxygen and minerals in the water. In other words, boiled water is "dead" water. In particular, boiling chlorinated water speeds up the reaction between chlorine and humic acid to form THMs. Though boiling kills bacteria present in the water, it does not completely remove impurities, odour, heavy metals and chlorine. On the other hand, it increases the level of THMs in the water we consume. Boiling is necessary only when we need to make a hot drink like coffee or tea.
