Not drinking water

[Monica]

No, no, thank you for sharing that story! My apologies for taking so long to get back over here. I have been preoccupied with my investigations into 5D manipulations of world history.

Gosh, sounds like you've been focused on very important things!

I would never recommend to somebody to drink plain distilled water... and have had to talk people out of it in the past.

I'm glad to hear that. Apparently, some health practitioners still recommend distilled water. They seem to be very rigid about it! When I offer info on ionized Water to naturopaths, they tend to be either very open, or rock-solid closed-minded, believing with a religious fervor that distilled water is the best. I'm always rather amused when I encounter one of those - they fit the description to a T like what you were describing - zealots who are closed to any new info!

But, fortunately, they are the exceptions. Most naturopaths are horrified to learn that I drank distilled water for 15 years.

Anyway, I'm relieved you're not like that!

But the argument is made based on the osmotic pressure of having literally nothing in the water. So adding the minerals back in should, theoretically, take care of that. You said earlier that even this is not enough, but didn't come back to that in your story.

That's what I thought too. Later I learned that it's not just the distilled water being 'hungry' (devoid of minerals). It's also very acidic. It comes out of the distiller neutral, but immediately starting interacting with the air and oxidizing. Get some pH drops and test your water fresh from the distiller and again an hour later, and again a few hours later. You will find that it gets more and more acidic. Then try adding in some minerals and see how much you have to add, to make it neutral.

It's also oxidizing, but then so are all bottled waters and reverse osmosis waters. Only freshly melted snow or glaciers, and some of the 'sacred' springs, produce water that is alkaline and antioxidant. And water ionizer machines. But once the water is bottled, it loses its properties. So bottled water labeled 'glacier water' isn't really glacier water. Source isn't nearly as important as state.

We did this for a little while back when we first got the distiller and it actually made us more thirsty!

Yeah that happened to me too. I just couldn't drink enough. I was always thirsty.

After using the ConcenTrace, this effect disappeared. Any more info on this? I would hate to be causing myself and my loved ones harm, but I had to make a decision one way or another. Based on my research, I thought perhaps this was the happy medium between cost, safety, effectiveness, and practicality.

That's exactly what I thought. It made sense to me, to start with the purest water and just add the minerals back in. But it wasn't enough to fully restructure the 'dead' water. Try testing your water with pH drops and an ORP meter. You will find that it is acidic, unless you add so many drops that it's salty. And you will find that it test oxidizing. Why drink acidic, oxidizing water when you could be drinking alkaline, antioxidant, crystalline structured water?

Hrmmm. Well one thing different is that I haven't been doing any kind of long term cleanses, fasts [currently on my first 5-day juice fast], or colonics. (In fact, I get frustrated that so many people get hoodwinked into this incessant need to "cleanse" ala the guru du jour.) Although I see its value.

Such intense cleansing definitely has value, to detox, especially those with acute conditions of excess and toxicity. But it should only be done short-term. Some people get too carried away and become cleansing junkies. In my case, I naively listened to the 'expert' who kept me coming back for over 3 years! It was outrageous! I wasn't even very sick, and she kept telling me I was still 'toxic'! I got down to 97 pounds (not as bad as it sounds - I'm only 4'11" so I was just slim, not skinny), with clear skin and never caught a cold, and still she kept telling me I was 'toxic'!! She helped me at first but also did a lot of damage.

I wonder how much of the effects you experienced were because the distilled water was layered on top of all those other things, as you mentioned.

Undoubtedly.

All of those colonics could have wiped out your gut microbiota, and compromised your barrier functions. You mentioned magnesium, but with a broad plant-based diet magnesium shouldn't be an issue...??

Yeah, I actually got dependent on colonics for awhile...and get this: The nutritionist actually admitted that she was dependent on them too!! She couldn't have normal bodily functions but needed help each day. How creepy is that! That's when I woke up and said, "Whoa....this isn't right. This woman is crazy!" She didn't teach her patients how to have healthy lifestyles. She just kept them coming back to her. Can you say S-T-S?

Ah, but this is digging up stuff I have forgiven long ago...I am just sharing this, in the hopes that others learn from my mistakes. Tenet, your examples of fanatics doing things that were obviously unhealthy...I was one of those people. But in my case, it was naivete, not fanaticism. It was more similar to people who let MDs talk them into doing barbaric things like chemo...those people aren't fanatics either but just don't know any better. They've been led to believe that the 'experts' know best and they give away their free will. Religious programming is at the root of this. We've been taught, "Don't question authority." I just traded one authority for another.

I finally woke up and left her program. She didn't like that. I did my own research and learned about a healthy lifestyle, instead of just being sick. And I did very well for about 10 years (which is why I blame the distilled water more than I do the cleansing, since I didn't get sick til 10 years after all the cleansing, after doing well all that time...I got sick within a couple of years of drinking distilled water). I did lots of probiotics to fix the digestive issues. I can't say for sure mag deficiency was the culprit. It might have been minerals in general. The algae kept me alive, I am certain of that. Acupuncturists told me I had insufficient chi.

All I know is, those problems all cleared up, as if magically, within a few months of drinking ionized water. And no, it wasn't placebo. If it were just placebo, then it would have happened with the other brand of machine I had previously. I knew very little about the water and actually didn't even have expectations that it would help my problems. I just wanted to do everything I could to prevent the big C.

Hrrrrrmmmmm.... there is something important to learn here it just hasn't hit me quite yet!

Please let me know when it hits you! As for me, I am just one of many, many thousands of people who had health challenges that had not responded to allopathic medicine or even alternative medicine, but did respond to this water. Being that our bodies are 70% water, well, that could be a clue!
