Guest guest Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 I would think that everything is clean in Alaska. My understanding is if one drinks gallons of water over longs periods of time, it removes essential minerals, and throws your electrolytes out of whack. I just stick to half my weight, which is about 75 ounces, plus my tea, a cup or two a day. I was told it would get your metabolism up. I don't see any changes there. I am still fat!! I need to lose at least 30 pounds. You could try putting some calgon in your bath water, it is a softner, my dad bathed with it for years. It makes your skin feel like silk.

It was so long ago and I do not remember the amount. I believe she did it for some sort of "cleansing". She died from drinking so much. Someone told me that some places like where we live is not good to drink the water because it contains inorganic minerals. We live in a place that has hard water. The bathtub looks like we don't clean it because of the mineral deposits. When we wash our hair, our hair is dry and course because of the water. I read in an Ayurvedic book that it is good to boil the water first before drinking it. It sounded like this was to control the minerals. Any comments?
