Feature Story                 Pristine Waters where have you gone?
 
By "The Healthy Plumber" Kennith Walter, Fd.
                Generally speaking water has become one of the most valuable natural resources in recent years.  Dwindling supplies of fresh pure
water have been increasingly disappearing, with little or no answers to solve an ever growing problem. Municipalities vie for fresh supplies while
literally re-incarnating toilet water or sewage. Though the commercial water filtration industry will have you believe that water that has gone through
typical reclamation is perfectly fine to drink, it is sadly not.
                Even though the water that comes from the tap is clean and pure to the look, surface and reclaimed toilet water is loaded full of
Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products as Pollutants (PPCPs)1, and Endocrine Disrupting Compounds (EDCs)2. Conventional municipal
water treatment is incapable of removing these health damaging hazardous chemicals. Even on rural water or private well water, numerous chemicals
are still showing up in test. To add insult to injury treatment facilities add chlorine ( for microbial purification), hydrofluorosilicic acid and hydroflouric
acid from ground waste (sodium fluoride is said to protect against cavities- yeah right, which also contains arsenic -CDC admits yes, 3, 4, 5, was
also sold as rat poison until 1972), sodium hydroxide (lye, to adjust the pH) and aluminum (for the precipitation of suspended particles). So how
healthy is your water? Do you drink tap or bottled water?
                The solution arises within one's own mind. When you begin to understand that beyond physical chemistry and "Flat Earth -reductionist
science", that all things have a living property to them. Water is the basis of all organic life. If you look at water as a mix of elements bonded together,
whether ionic or covalent, you have the foundation to see what it is made from. However beyond the "physical" is the energetic properties not found
by standard chemical analysis.
                So what are the "properties"? It has been known for thousands of years that certain spring waters (hot and cold) have a healing, regenerative
property, many people experience this when they soak in natural mineral baths or drink the water. Although the minerals are a component to the
healing, as ionically (that is "electron -ically") they begin to re-mineralize the body. Beyond that is when we begin to see the energetic (true life)
component measured using millivolt (mV) sensitive equipment to detect an "Oxidative Reduction Potential" or ORP.
                ORP is the ability to either rob electrons (oxidize/rust) or contribute electrons (reduce/rebuild). This ability to contribute electrons is the ability
to regenerate organic matter and transmute inorganic compounds into non-toxic substances commonly know as elements. Yes that's right, complex
molecules become ionic elements. Reduced water is an anti-oxidant detectable by the presence of a negative millivolt potential. Oxidative (bad)
properties are detectable by a positive millivolt potential. Regular tap water has a positive reading of above +450 mV, purified bottle water between
 +200 to +350 mV, while healing water, (and pure fresh vegetable juices) have a negative reading beginning at -1 mV extending as high as -1200 mV.
Now ask yourself-would you want this water to come from your regular household tap? I certainly would say YES, but how? Answer; an ionizing, alkalizing
water generator, the Enagic SD501. This little counter top device is one of the worlds most powerful water generators available. After months of
research and thousands of dollars spent there has been a definitive conclusion to the quality and ability for this water generator to function. It is a leader
in the industry by technology and design. It is one of the first companies in the world to produce a home unit. Now standing with a 33 year track record.
                Kangen (return to original in Japanese) is the waters' common name. And by definition that is exactly what is does, returns you to original. We
are 75% water, not vitamins, not expensive juices not herbal tonics, but water. When you drink one glass of this water it is the equivalent of eating a
fist full of very expensive supplements (not all supplements are created equally). The way the water works by definition is referred to as "ionized-
alkalized" water. There has been much flack from reductionist science to prove what this water is and it can be tested very quickly with a device
called and OPR meter. You just simply choose your water sample immerse the probe and viola it will give you a reading in millivolts as a potential.
If it is on the positive side of the scale it is an oxidizing solution, however if it is on the negative side of the scale it is a reducer or anti-oxidant. For the
pH some simple test strips or drops will do the trick, but for very accurate readings you actually need a test gauge. Now you might be thinking is
alkalized water good for you? And the quick response is, if you live in a stress filled environment, and eat any type of flesh protein or processed foods
then...Yes!  Otto Warburg won a Nobel prize in 1930 for proving diseases do not exist in an alkaline environment. More recently it has been proven
in-vitro that simply by adjusting pH toward acid, helping organelle "transmute" or morph into destructive viruses, adjust the pH back to alkaline and
it becomes the helper organelle again. This is ground breaking information. Almost all diseases can be related back to lifestyle and acid  environment.
It has been shown that almost all tumors when cultured show candida albicans, which is a negative yeast that proliferates in an acid environment
When the body is made up of 75% water and the average person only drinking 750 mL per day it is no wonder the multitude of disease is on the rise,
6, not to mention the horrific amount of chemicals found in most ground and tap waters. To add insult to injury most so-called "purified" water (R.O. -
 even re-mineralized, distilled) is on the acid side of the pH scale causing further damage to the body when ingested. If the water you drink is not pH
and energetically adjusted it simply drains minerals and nutrients from your body adding to the further acidification and eventual disease formation.
Who would ever desire negative results from water ingestion?
                Enagic has produced the highest quality water ionizes on the market today. Do not be fooled by price! For when we pay to little for something
it may not be a bargain as you use it over the days and months and years. If you could produce all of the drinking, cooking and cleaning waters for your
family for about $1.50 per day would it be worth it? It is rare that you may find a more powerful health generating substance. It is impossible to buy
super-foods, supplementation or commercial drugs for that price to continually generate a level of health that rivals any health program. It is why this
machine is used in Hospitals in Japan as it just simply works to restore you to original. The Japanese focus on health, in the West we focus on
disease. The pursuit of one of those yields the same.

Message Board  ….. 
Warning:  Sometimes when little ones write on our walls with crayons, felts, etc.: we want them to learn a lesson by cleaning off the mess they made. 
PLEASE do not have them use the new erasers that are produced to clean messes off of walls.  I received an email showing the chemical burns that
a child received from handling the erasers.
 “The erasers contain harmful alkaline or "base" chemical (opposite of acid on the pH scale). I quickly searched Google.com for "Magic Eraser Burn"
and turned up several results. I was shocked. These completely innocent looking white foam sponges can burn you.”    Kristi Freeman
  
My Favorite Wholistic / Alternative ……
Feels like I am the last person on this planet to hear about Colloidal Silver.  Here is some information I found from a pamphlet that sure has intrigued
me even farther.   Recently used Colloidal Silver for myself, our family dog (as he would not take anything else and had a lump along his neck and was
really sick) and last night with the fish tank.
During testing Colloidal Silver destroyed on contact: MRSA, Staph, Ecoli, Enterococcus, Candida, Pseudomonas, and Aspergillus.
Colloidal Silver has been used for:  acne, allergies, athletes foor, boils, colds and flu, chronic cough and fatigue, candida, canker sores, eye and ear
infections, diabetes, food poisoning, hepatitis, malaria, lupus, lesions, ringworm, shingles, warts, yeast infections and more.
Colloidal Silver is being used in water for a household disinfectant. 
Note:  When Colloidal Silver is made, it should be made with de-mineralized water so that it will not form silver compounds to cause argyria (graying
of skin and nails).

Gardening
                During the winter time, my house plants slow down a bit and some of the vine leaves go brown.  I start to water the plants less, and
find the time to replenish the soil.   It is very rarely that I totally repot the plants as mixing in the newer soil puts the plants through a lot less shock.                             en.wikipedia.org has some wonderful information house plant: soil, medicinal uses, food uses and care of the plants.  Learnt that the Jades and
succulents need a lot less water in the winter and can go for long periods without watering.  Many have used water from the fish tank, fish fertilizer
and tea water to water the house plants.    If any one has some information on winter time maintenance for their house plants please share.
