Early Death Comes From Drinking Distilled Water

12 12 2007

Fasting using distilled water can be dangerous 189795_glass_2_filling_with_water.jpg because of the rapid loss of electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride) and trace minerals like magnesium, deficiencies of which can cause heart beat irregularities and high blood pressure. Cooking foods in distilled water pulls the minerals out of them and lowers their nutrient value.

Distilled water is an active absorber and when it comes into contact with air, it absorbs carbon dioxide, making it acidic. The more distilled water a person drinks, the higher the body acidity becomes.

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, “Distilled water, being essentially mineral-free, is very aggressive, in that it tends to dissolve substances with which it is in contact. Notably, carbon dioxide from the air is rapidly absorbed, making the water acidic and even more aggressive. Many metals are dissolved by distilled water.”

Water is the fluid of life!

13 09 2007

Water is the fluid of life! It’s your best friend and ally when encouraging
physical balance and regeneration. Sufficient water intake significantly
increases the body’s ability to heal damaged tissue. Toxins are processed out
of the body allowing greater nutrient assimilation. Our basic cells thrive on
water and close off when dehydrated.

What is enough water? Water intake varies dependent on your lifestyle. A
general rule is this: half your weight in ounces (160 LB person = 80 oz of
water per day (cup=8 oz). If you exercise daily, jog or work hard physically,
even more water is important.

Water, for your body, is like the oil for your car. It’s all about having the
right amount in the right place. In today’s busy demanding world, drinking
water seems inconvenient. What most people don’t understand is the correlation
between pain and proper physical hydration. On a cellular level, the brain
regulates the fluidic flow with specific neurotransmitters. In many books by F.
Batmanghelidg M.D. he informs us about how vital proper water intake is for our
health, especially about our return to optimal wellness. His research has
spanned over thirty years and provides a crucial “wake up” call for common
dehydration signs. It is never too late to turn around a habit and begin anew.

The human body is made up of 65% water, the brain 85% water and lungs are 90%
water. So what happens in asthma, allergies and other respiratory dysfunctions?
The neurotransmitter histamine has increased, signaling a water rationing
program within the body. Histamines reduce air inflow by stimulating mucus to
plug and protect the bronchioles. Common antihistamine medications seek to
reduce histamine production. Therefore, adequate water intake will unilaterally
hydrate and rebalance systemic conditions over time.

What is not water? Many liquids contain water, but with other chemical
constituents which drain off more than their volume alone. Coffee, Tea, soda
and other common commercial beverages act as diuretics, removing extra fluid
from the body.

SWAN. Shifting Water Attitudes Now. Changing attitudes supports and quickens
your recovery period. Water = Flow. Balanced water intake = freedom to flow.
Shifting an attitude changes the importance and balance of maintaining habits.

World Water Crisis

17 08 2007

Admittedly, since summer started and my son has been home for the vacation, I haven’t been keeping up so well with water news. I’ve caught up on some news, and it has made me realize that we have so much to be thankful for. From water shortages in Turkey, to severe flooding in India, I cannot even comprehend living in such dire conditions.

Hospitals in Turkey have stopped accepting new patients, and are having tankers deliver one-hour supplies of water, even for operations.

Flooding in India has left people with very little drinking water, and no medical supplies.

Residents in San Bernardino County, California require drinking water. It’s not just abroad, but here, domestically, as well.

I am thankful for my Kangen Water unit. Firstly, because I am able to drink my tap water (which normally smells like like the local YMCA pool). Secondly, I am able to do my part in helping the environment by not using bottled water. In fact, my recycling can is only one-third full, compared to a year ago, when it would overflow with plastic gallon water bottles. So I know that I am doing my part, especially finding out that NY/NJ beaches are reporting a 96% increase in beach closures over last year, because of pollution.

Let’s make ourselves aware, and be thankful for the clean water we have to drink.

Change Your Water… Change Your Life - Part 1

10 01 2007

Is one of your New Year's resolutions to lose weight by going on a diet?  Do you plan to keep that diet only until you've lost the requisite weight and then go back to your old eating habits?  Why?  What's the point?

For many of us, the word "diet" brings a hungry feeling before we even start.  It evokes deprivation and unhappiness that you cannot eat what you really like.  But at the finish line, you can reward yourself by going back to the old — only to begin again in a few months.  My dad told me he is going on a low-carb diet because he needs to lose weight.  I told him that I don't need to diet because I eat that way normally.

Why not just change your lifestyle so that you don't have to diet anymore?  Easier said than done, right?  Not really.

Here's my personal experience.

I started drinking Kangen Water in August 2006.  For the first week, I couldn't get enough.  As an avid beer drinker, I was amazed that I had no desire to drink beer, because it didn't make me feel as good as the water did.  (In fact, my body actually hurt from drinking alcohol).  I actually felt my body rehydrating with every glass of water.  My body was thirsty — boy was it thirsty!  The more I drank the more I wanted, and the better I felt.

Here's the crazy thing that doesn't seem so crazy to me anymore.

I began to pay attention to what my body was telling me and asking for.  When making food choices, I began to think about how my body would feel if I ate this or that.  The water was making me feel so good that I wanted to eat things that made it feel just as good.

For example, I ignored my little voice the first time, and ate a burger with Swiss cheese and mushrooms — my favorite.  Afterwards though, my body wasn't terribly happy with me.  Why not?  Every other time I felt great.  But did I really, or was I simply not listening?  Or deliberately ignoring so that I could still eat my favorite food?

I found that the water was making my body feel so good, that I was happy.  And I wanted to eat food that would keep making me happy and feel good about myself.

Slowly, I began eating raw vegetables.  And more raw vegetables.  I used to call this happy food.  A large salad with different colored vegetables (more colors means more antioxidants — plus all the colors look like a fiesta on your plate), some garbanzo beans for protein, and maybe a few croutons for extra crunch.  I stopped using dressings, as well.  Now I use salt and pepper, and olive oil.  I find that these simple spices just bring out the natural deliciousness (is that a word?) of all these vegetables.  I do not need to cover up the taste of my happy food.  I also call it my rabbit salad.

Rabbit Salad (aka Happy Food)
1 cucumber, diced
1 green pepper, diced
1/2 yellow pepper diced (if you have it)
1/2 orange or red pepper, diced (if you have it)
1 bunch radishes, cut up any way you like
1 handful of fresh green beans, cut into bite size pieces
1 or two carrots, cut into bite size pieces
2 or 3 stalks of celery, cut into bite size pieces
1 can Garbanzo beans (chick peas).  [I prefer Goya, myself]
Salt and pepper to taste
Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil
Mix well

Whenever possible, I buy organic fruits and vegetables.  They cost a bit more, but the pennies I would save on non-organic produce may be saved towards possible future medical bills because non-organic foods lack the proper nutrients.  Something I'd rather take care of myself, thank you.
Basically, any combination of raw vegetables will do.  These are just what I happen to buy most often.

It's now January, and I'm about 20 pounds lighter, suffer less from depression, feel better about myself, and have and maintain a much more positive outlook.

And it all started by simply drinking the right kind of water.  Kangen Water.
