Guest guest Posted April 8, 2002 Report Share Posted April 8, 2002 Janice, IMHO distilled water is the best because it is simple pure. One function of water is to carry waste away. The more contaminated - saturated with body waste - the less it can carry. And if the water is contaminated going in the body has to process that as well. Possible contaminations _Not Checked For_ in our water supply are pharmacuels like prescribed drugs and street drugs. Remember out liver detox's our body of poisons through urination.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2002 Report Share Posted April 8, 2002 You can disagree as much as you want. Lots of people have had problems with distilled water on long term. Some of them started to loose alot of hair on head. And they was healthy people, vegetarians. The hair loss stopped when they began to put concentrated mineral water in the distilled water. I know there is concentrated mineral water to buy. I have myself one of those. Desert lake water concentrate, with extra magnesium.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2002 Report Share Posted April 8, 2002 Hi, According to Dr. Norman Walker, a nutritionist of over 70 years, in his book, " Water can undermine your health " , he states that all mineral and chemical elements in water when reaching the liver are either passed on into the bloodstream or filed away as reserve material. He says that distilled water does not leach out body minerals, it collects and removes minerals which have been rejected by the cells of the body and are therefore more or less debris, obstructing normal functions of the system. He goes further than this but this is basically his view. Just quoting what I have read, everyone has to decide for themselves what is right for them. Cathy herbal remedies, " P.M.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2002 Report Share Posted April 9, 2002 As one who tends to be in the " pulls minerals from the body " camp, i've seen this debate way too many times. What we really need is some hard evidence. Really, are there any studies out there? I do know that some studies released to the national media have shown that there is a reduced incidence of heart disease among people living in communities with highly mineralized water. So that would seem to point towards my side. I also have come to believe that perhaps mineral balance could be kept with proper supplementation if someone is using distilled water. But even rain water is slightly mineralized and, more importantly, carries at least two electrical-type charges. From European studies i've seen, it looks like those charges are even more important than water mineralization. So the key word is " perhaps " . What would be of most benefit at this point, is broad population studies showing whether or not distilled water causes any harm. Next most useful would be anecdotes from people who have run across this in individual cases. At 08:25 PM 4/7/02 -0700, you wrote: >Janice, IMHO distilled water is the best because it is simple pure.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2002 Report Share Posted April 11, 2002 Dear Janice, Welllllllllllllllll, I wished I'd been on list and seen this one before it turned into such a debate. ;o) I have done extensive research into this subject, and distilled water is by far the best way to drink your water, or to use with your teas, etc. Distilled water has been maligned (especially by the "Alkaline" water boys), with claims of mineral loss etc. etc. This is simply not true to any extent that you need to be worried about it. A few grains of Celtic Sea Salt or eating a healthy organic meal, would replace any organic minerals lost by taking distilled water. As a matter of fact, distilled water is essential for flushing out "inorganic" minerals out of your body and bringing about a state of homeostasis within the body. I have hundreds and hundreds of patients and I've put every single one of them on distilled water with absolutely NO adverse effects whatsoever. None. Nada. Nyet. Only good effects. If you check back "Messages" from about a year ago, you'll see where this debate already happened and there were some great research referrences posted at that time. Distilled water? It doesn't get any better. I recommend to everyone that they get their own distillery. Everyone!!! Love, Doc PS. If there was ever a plague, it could be the very one factor that saves the life of you and your family.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2002 Report Share Posted April 11, 2002 Good points Ed, but please refrain from using your URL in your signature line. Per list policies there is to be no advertising on list whatsoever. I appreciate having one more professional herbalist on list but this policy is written in stone as far as I'm concerned. One of the purposes of the list is the FREE dissemination of True Naturopathic data. MLM's, advertising of one's wares, etc. are simply not welcome.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2002 Report Share Posted April 11, 2002 Dear Mar, There are many factors which could contribute to the effects you've mentioned including "vegetarianism" as you mentioned below. I beat no drum for veganism and in actuality, very few people can exist naturally as pure vegetarians (vegans), though all body cleansing is enhanced by doing it for short periods of time. Whenever I put someone through a cleanse, they do it vegan all the way. Not because there is anything wrong with ORGANIC MEATS, but only because one's body should be focussing on "HEALING" during cleansing, and not on digestion. Proteins are harder and take longer to digest than other food forms. Dr. Bernard Jensen once investigated the five longest lived peoples on Earth. People who lived well past 120 or so. Every one of these peoples were meat eaters. Just remember, the meat they ate was ORGANIC!!!!!!! Not "All Natural" or "Range Free" or any other such false or misleading label.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2002 Report Share Posted April 11, 2002 Dear Peg, Who told you that nonsense about being booted off list for misleading a new member??? I've never done so, and being List Cop is one of the hats that I wear, though I have help from others in this respect. Usually, there are enough well-informed herbalists on list to correct any misleading statements, and I jump in only when I have to, or when there is a discrepency between professionals to settle a point once and for all. In Ed's case, he is absolutely correct. Distilled water is best. See my earlier post on this.

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2002 Report Share Posted April 12, 2002 I'm sure somebody will come up with something more sophisticated, but this is how I made distilled water when I had to do a bit of 'home operation' and needed really clean water: Take a big pot with a lid. Fill it with just about any old water (it doesn't have to be filtered even, that I know of, since the distillation process will remove anything that filtering would and more). Find a way to suspend a small glass or metal bowl or large cup inside the pot (upright--a coathanger, cleverly bent, works great). Make sure you can still put a lid on the pot fairly tightly. Now, boil the water. As it evaporates, it'll condense on the pot lid (which, obviously, should be very clean) and drip into the bowl/cup. Bingo--distilled water. Also, I don't know where exactly, but I'm positive the 'Net holds information on building a home distillery, though they can be kind of bulky if you want any real volume out of them. Many of them involve double- and triple-distilling the water, but all I can really say is this: NOTHING tastes as good as distilled water!! *lolol* See ya, Sara T.
