Usually, this condition develops in childhood, in conjunction with other Atopic diseases like Asthma and Hay Fever.

The cause is unknown. It is believed that a combination of genetic and environmental factors may be the culprits.

Brandon Stetner’s Testimonial

22 10 2007

For about the past two years, anytime I drove longer than 25 minutes, my knees would start to ache to where it was painful to drive. This problem was attributed to jumping on asphalt from five feet up 4 times a day, 5 days a week for about 14 months. I have now been drinking the Kangen 8.5 was for 2 weeks now, and recently made a 5-hour road trip each way, and no pain whatsoever.

 

On another note, my girlfriend and I have also noticed our skin complexion has cleared up dramatically.

We don’t even use face wash or toner anymore.

 

And, according to her, the best thing about this water is the 6 lbs. she has lost while detoxing. And me, just 2 lbs.!

 

One thing for sure, you can definitely tell a difference in your body after drinking this water.

pH of Distilled Water

13 10 2007

 

What is the pH of the notoriously clean, distilled water? If you know anything about distillers, or own one (like I do), then read on.

Since the dawn of time there has been distillation in nature and it continues each and every day. The term we know it by is the Hydrologic Cycle. The Hydrologic Cycle (also called the water cycle) is the process that moves water around the earth. The cycle starts with the sun heating water in our rivers, lakes and oceans and turning it into water vapor which rises into the air (called evaporation). When water vapor cools it forms clouds (condensation) which become heavy with water and rains back to earth (precipitation). Nature knows best and nature supplies distilled water in the form of rain. However, rain water is no longer pure due to atmospheric pollution. Have you ever seen the color of rain water that has been collected in a bucket? The yellow tint it has is due to the slightly acidic pH level, which is usually around 5.6, because carbon dioxide and water in the air react together to form carbonic acid, a weak acid. The extra acidity in rain comes from the reaction of air pollutants; primarily sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides, with water in the air to form strong acids (like sulfuric and nitric acid). The main sources of these pollutants are vehicles and industrial and power-generating plants.

With that being said, people have turned to in-home distillers to duplicate the process. Distilled water is water that has been boiled in an apparatus called a “still” and then recondensed in a cooling unit (”condenser”) to return the water to the liquid state. Some of the higher-end models use a charcoal filter to remove any remaining gases. The boiling action kills bacteria and other micro-organisms, and contaminants are left behind in the boiling chamber. The effectiveness of distillation is over 99+% (99.99% removal has been achieved even on ocean water–over 35,000 P.P.M).

Now with that explanation understood, distilled water will test out in a range of pH 5.5-5.8. The reason is that distilled water dissolves carbon dioxide from the air. It dissolves carbon dioxide until it is in dynamic equilibrium with the atmosphere. That means that the amount being dissolved balances the amount coming out of solution. The total amount in the water is determined by the concentration in the atmosphere. The dissolved carbon dioxide reacts with the water and finally forms carbonic acid.

Distilled water tends to be acidic and can only be recommended as a way of drawing poisons out of the body. Dr. Theodore Baroody, in his book “Alkalize or Die”, offers a list of symptoms that may be precipitated by Acidosis:

17. Impotence
18. Urethritis
19. Cystitis
20. Urinary infection

22. Colitis
23. Excessive falling hair

24. Psoriasis
25. Endometriosis
26. Stuttering

I encourage you to do your own research on the pH of the water you drink, and I’m sure you will consider and Alkaline based water as I did.

Learn to Read Labels, It’s Good For Your Health

10 10 2007

As you learn to become aware that food quality and health are very important, you will become aware of the benefits of organic food and the healing lifestyle that it brings. It can be very enjoyable learning to eat whole natural and organic foods. Part of the process is learning to read labels. You really have to pay attention to this because the U.S. News and World Report 6/18/90 issue points out that the FDA found 47% of domestic and 76% of foreign foods did not live up to the nutrient billing on the product label.. It should be pointed out as well that because you are shopping in a health food store you should still read labels. Not everything in the health food store is necessarily healthy.

When it comes to food labels the word “natural” can mean almost anything. The safest words to look for in food labeling are “certified organic” By supporting organic farming you are improving your health the health of the planet and the economy, an all around wise choice. A poll conducted by Harris showed that 80% of Americans want organic fruits and vegetables and over 50% are willing to pay the difference to buy organic. Not only are organic foods safer because they are free of pesticides, it has also been suggested that the use of organically prepared soils usually contains a higher concentration of nutrients, like, vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. The Firman Bear Report done at Rutgers University found that organically grown foods were much richer in minerals than the similar looking commercial produce. Organic tomatoes had better than five times more calcium, 12 times more magnesium, three times more potassium, 600% more organic sodium (unlike table salt, organic sodium does not necessarily have adverse effects on blood pressure) sixty eight times more manganese, and 1900 times more iron. Organic spinach had more than twice the calcium, five and a half times the magnesium, better than three times the potassium, seventy times the sodium, one hundred and seventeen times the amount of manganese, and eighty times the iron. Organic lettuce had three and a half times the calcium, three times the magnesium, three times the potassium, thirty times the sodium, one hundred and sixty nine times the manganese, and fifty seven times the iron. The overall result of the Rutgers research suggests that organic foods are 87% richer in minerals and trace elements than commercially grown food. As you can see, with organically grown produce, you get more nutrients for the dollar.

I have been eating a vegetarian raw foods diet for many years. I found that I was getting acid reflux from eating certain raw foods. Some of the foods that I had trouble with were raw peppers, raw onions, raw garlic, raw cucumbers and radishes. I also had a bloated feeling when I ate grains and cereals. After I starting drinking Kangen water, I noticed that my tolerance for these foods had changed. I am now able to enjoy the benefits of my favorite raw and organic fruits and vegetables without fear of bloating, heartburn or acid reflux. If you are serious about making changes to your lifestyle and your health, Kangen water will eventually be an integral part of that change. I have found that by changing my water I have changed my life in many ways. One way being my ability to enjoy foods that are essential to health and beneficial to longevity. So read labels, eat raw organic fruits and vegetables whenever possible and drink plenty of Kangen water. I will see you in the organic foods aisle. With a Safe Canteen full of Kangen water.

Peace and Health,

Boiled Water From Lake Victoria Not Safe Enough

4 10 2007

During a conferece updating journalists on the state of the water in Lake Vicoria, Ms Maria Mutagamba, Uganda’s Minister for Water and Environment, stressed the importance of drinking treated, not merely boiled, water from Lake Victoria.

According to Ms. Mutagamba, “For drinking, use treated water. Boiling it alone is not enough. The moment you boil that blue green algae, you give it another character, whereas with our treatment [by National Water and Sewerage Cooperation] we contain it.”

According to researchers from the National Fisheries Research Institute, the bacteria that infest the water in Lake Victoria can cause not only liver damage, but also cancer and diarrhea to those individuals who drink untreated water from the lake.
