How many times do you hear children say this? And more so, how many times do you also feel the same way?
Natural pure water - a precious commodity that is fast becoming a scarcity.
It’s getting harder and harder to find pristine natural sources of water as over time with industrialisation, man has contaminated nearly every natural water supply with pollutants, toxic wastes and illegal dumping of chemicals. With over 120,000 types of chemicals in the world today, and another 1000 new ones added each year, it’s no wonder they find their way into our water sources.
What about our tap water?
Tap water from treatment plants is supposedly safe for drinking, but by the time it reaches your home through all the miles of underground pipes, the water will have picked up a lot of undesirable and unwanted “hitch-hikers”. Pesticides, herbicides, chemicals, organic and inorganic matters, sediment, rust, silt, heavy metals, bacteria, viruses and other toxic pollutants may still find their way into your drinking water and therefore your bloodstream.
Even chlorine which is added by treatment plants to disinfect and remove microbes and contaminants from our water is not good for the body in the long run. Its by-products, including chloroform, which is produced when chlorine mixes with organic matter, can be extremely harmful. Studies have linked chlorine with heart problems, cancer and arteriosclerosis. Boiling water does not get rid of chlorine – it changes it into a carcinogen called trihalomethane (THM). Carcinogens are cancer-causing agents.
In his article “Chlorination: A Link Between Heart Disease and Cancer”, Martin Fox, Ph.D. stated: “Chlorine causes excess free radicals. Free radicals lead to cell damage. Once the cells are damaged, we see an elevation in serum cholesterol levels, atherosclerosis, hardening of the arteries and plaque formation. Chlorine can cause all these problems related to heart disease and can also be a cause of cancer…. With cancer, free radicals create malignant cells. In the chlorination process itself chlorine combines with natural organic matter, such as decaying vegetation, to form potent, cancer causing trihalomethanes or haloforms. Trihalomethanes, commonly abbreviated THM's, collectively include such cancer causing agents as chloroforms, bromoforms, arbontectachloride and many others.”
Water Is Essential
Water, as we all know, is essential to the well-being of any living being. You can live without food for weeks even, but not without water. In fact the Traditional Food Pyramid is quite incomplete as it has omitted a very important element; water should be right there at the very base as it supports the entire structure. Water is necessary to hydrate our cells and transport the nutrients to the various parts of the body system.
The importance of water and its role in regulating our health have led many researchers to do in-depth studies on the link between dehydration, degeneration and disease.
In his ground-breaking self-help book, “Your Body’s Many Cries For Water”, Fereydoon Batmanghelidj. M.D. (‘Dr. B’), an internationally renowned researcher, author and advocate of the natural healing power of water, intimates that:
“You are not sick, you are thirsty.
Don’t treat thirst with medication.”
Dr. B’s research has benefited numerous people and he has been featured in an interview with renowned motivational guru Anthony Robbins. According to Dr. B, many kinds of ailments and degenerative diseases are caused by dehydration, which can be cured with proper hydration. These include stress, arthritis, asthma, backache, constipation, urinary problems, headaches, heartburn, adult-onset diabetes, hypertension, lupus, multiple sclerosis, angina, heart problems, high cholestrol, morning sickness, menstrual problems, obesity and depression. With proper consumption of good water, one can enjoy better health.
Water is needed to:
• Prevent the 3Ds – Dehydration, Degeneration and Disease
• Enable Efficient Elimination of Toxins and Waste from the Body
• Enable your Body Systems to Function Effectively
So, it’s important to drink water. But not just any water. In order to fully hydrate and benefit your body, the quality, content and structure of water must meet the body’s requirements. After all, you are what you drink.
And with the current condition of our tap water, many have resorted to different water treatment processes in the hope of getting safer and healthier water.
Safe Water vs. Healthy Water
What is ‘Safe’ Water?
‘Safe’ water is generally water that is free from bacteria, viruses, VOCs (volatile organic chemicals), heavy metals, THMs, toxic wastes, detergents and all other pollutants that are harmful to the body. Water that has undergone purification processes via distillation or reverse osmosis is usually very pure and safe, but it is essentially empty or ‘dead’ water as all the healthful minerals have also been eliminated. Thus ‘safe’ water need not necessarily be ‘healthy’ i.e. the water may not actually be good for your body if it is devoid of essential minerals and does not possess the properties of healthy water.
What about ‘Healthy’ Water?
In addition to being clean and pure, ‘healthy’ water is water as how nature intended. Some have called it “living water” as it exhibits the energy and characteristics of pure, fresh, unpolluted natural sources like glacial reservoirs, mountain water and natural streams. Healthy water is rich with natural minerals and oxygen, and has abundant negatively charged
ion (elektrons). Victor Schauberger, Seorang warga Austria, pencinta alam semula jadi dan saintist, yang memperkenalkan istilah ‘air hidup’ ini pada awal 1900, mendapati air sihat memiliki ciri ciri memori iaitu seperti kluster ‘hexagonal’ yang semula jadi. Struktur yang kaya dengan mineral semulajadi didalamnya terdapat dalam kebanyakan air penyembuhan yang didapati diseluruh dunia.
ions (electrons). Victor Schauberger, an Austrian naturalist and scientist, who coined the term “living water” in the early 1900s, discovered that healthy water has a memory and can remember its life as ice with natural hexagonal, snowflake-like water clusters. It is this structure, rich with natural minerals snuggled within, that is found in the healing waters around the world.
7 Characteristics of Healthy Water
1. It is clean, pure and unpolluted
Healthy water is free from contaminants and pollution. It is fresh, odourless and does not contain cancer-causing agents, microbes and other toxic substances. It makes a most refreshing drink!
2. It contains plenty of vital oxygen to nourish your cells
Oxygen is vital to living beings; it nourishes your cells, increases mental alertness and energy levels, and enables efficient performance of bodily functions. Oxygen is not just inhaled in through the air, you also take it in through the water you drink. In fact dissolved oxygen in water offers a more direct route to your cells. It can reach the blood in 30 seconds, the brain in 1 minute, the skin in 10 minutes, and the liver, heart and kidneys in 20 minutes.
3. It has essential minerals and trace minerals in ionic form
Minerals and trace minerals in water are best for our bodies as they are in ionic form and are more easily and efficiently absorbed than chelated or colloidal supplements. In nature, all fresh water contain traces of natural minerals like calcium, magnesium and potassium, which is what our body is designed to run on.
4. It is alive with vital energy
Healthy water is alive with bio-energy, also known as ‘chi’ or natural life force. It increases your vitality and amplifies your own life force. On the other hand, drinking “dead” water causes your body to lose precious energy by having to charge the drink from its own energy store, before that water can be used for bodily functions.
5. It has alkaline pH to help combat the acidity in your body
Our dietary intake, especially protein-rich foods and acidic beverages like coffee and cola (which has pH of 2.5), contribute to the overacidity of our bodies. Research has revealed that diseases thrive in an acidic environment. Healthy water has alkalinic properties and pH of between 8.5 to 10 to help neutralise and combat the acidity. It is important to balance blood pH which is between 7.2 to 7.45. A blood pH of 6.9 can induce coma and death. Your body will willingly shut down digestion, alter temperature, rob your bones of calcium, deprive your pancreas, just to maintain alkalinility to balance the ‘acid tide’ we inflict upon ourselves through diet and stress.
6. It has small water molecule clusters and structure for easier absorption
The smaller cluster size gives the water excellent hydrating properties, high solubility and good permeability. Even if you drink 2 or 3 glasses at one go, you do not feel too full because your body is able to absorb and use the water instantly. Normal tap water on the hand has large molecule clusters making it less efficient.
7. Most essentially, it has high Antioxidant properties
One of the most important characteristics of healthy water is having high antioxidant properties. Oxidation is like seeing a piece of freshly cut apple turning brown after a few minutes. Likewise oxidation happens in our bodies and over a period of time, it can lead to premature aging and more serious problems like diseases and illnesses.
The chart below shows some of the effects of oxidation on our vital organs:
EFFECTS OF OXIDATION ON VITAL ORGANS
Oxidized Tissue
Leads To:
Liver
Pancreas
Kidney
Hepatitis, Cirrhosis, Cancer
Pancreatitis, Diabetes, Cancer
Nephritis, Nephrosis, Cancer
Dr. Hidemitsu Hayashi, M.D., Director of the Water Institute of Japan, in his article “Benefits of Alkaline, Ionized Water”, stated that:
“Active oxygen molecules are extremely reactive and can also attach themselves to normal, healthy cells and damage them genetically. These active oxygen radicals steal electrons from normal, healthy molecules. This electron theft by active oxygen oxidizes tissue and can cause disease.”
“… If we can find an effective method to block the oxidation of healthy tissue by active oxygen, then we can attempt to prevent disease… One way to protect healthy tissue from the ravages of oxidation caused by active oxygen is to provide free electrons to active oxygen radicals, thus neutralizing their high oxidation potential and preventing them from reacting with healthy tissue.”
Oxidation, which is a regular function of metabolism and cell function, strips an electron from certain molecules. These molecules (called free radicals) then must steal an electron from a nearby molecule to repair themselves, which means that the nearby molecule must steal an electron from another molecule and on and on. This vicious oxidation cycle ends when an electron is taken from a molecule which has an excess electron to donate. These 'donor' molecules are called antioxidants. Nature provides this in Vitamins C and E, Beta Carotene, Selenium etc. These substances are reducing agents. They supply electrons to free radicals and block the interaction of the free radical with normal tissue. Studies have shown that people who regularly take large doses of antioxidants have much lower rates of heart disease, cancer and chronic degenerative diseases.
Pollution, chemicals, food additives, pesticides, chlorine, antibiotics etc are thought to dramatically accelerate the oxidation process, increasing the need for antioxidants. At the same time we are eating more refined foods which have had the vitamins and antioxidants removed or destroyed by processing.
Drinking normal tap water adds to the problem.
Why?
Normal tap water has a positive redox potential and usually measures between +400mV to +500mV. Because it has a positive redox potential, it is apt to acquire
electrons and oxidize other molecules, and then rob your body of electrons in the form of energy.
Redox is a combination of the words reduction (having excess electrons) and oxidation (missing electrons). Redox potential or oxidation reduction potential (ORP) is measured in milivolts (mV) with an ORP meter. The higher the mV reading in the (+) plus category, the more damaged the water is. Why? Simply because it reflects a lack of electrons. For example, a reading of +400mV shows only 1 available electron. This is bad as it means the water is very clumped together at the molecular level and difficult to absorb. Also it is aggressive and apt to oxidize other molecules.
On the other hand, it is the negative Redox potential that is beneficial to our body. As an example, a minus (-) reading of -72mV shows over one hundred million (100,000,000) available electrons. This is excellent because now the water is literally loaded with powerful electrons to donate to electron-thieving active oxygen.
Antioxidant Water, the Natural Solution
There is no substitute for a healthy balanced diet, especially rich in antioxidant materials such as vitamin C, vitamin E, beta-carotene, and other foods that are good for us. However, for many of us, trying to include enough dietary sources of antioxidants in an everyday diet can be too overwhelming. A more convenient and effective way is to drink antioxidant water.
Imagine the convenience – getting the antioxidants your body needs, while getting plenty of hydration from the water. After all, our body is 2/3 made up of water.
By drinking water with antioxidant properties (lots of excess electrons) you are helping your body block dangerous oxidation of healthy body tissue. Such water is one of the best solutions as water being soluble is fast-acting and readily absorbed, and therefore able to reach all your body tissues in a very short time. Further the water has small cluster size thus improving the absorption rate. Including the use of antioxidant water into your daily routine will help you maintain a happier and healthier lifestyle.
Nature’s solution is in the glacial streams and icebergs with its strong, negatively charged ions. As not everyone is able to access this water, fortunately we have modern technology which emulates the same properties. Healthy water provides an abundant and easily absorbed supply of antioxidants for the body.
