Guest guest Posted July 1, 2003 Report Share Posted July 1, 2003 Is Distilled Water Healthy? by Suzanne M. Skinner, Ph.D. Previously posted by list-member Fern to another list ~ thank you! Dear Dr. Skinner: Our church group has been having beated argurments over what type of water is safe to drink. I have been drinking distilled water for over two years, and I am now getting scared I may be doing myself great harm. Some say distilled water is the only health water. Others say distilled water is not only devoid of the minerals our bodies need, but that it leaches out the minerals that are already in our body. Who is right? What shall I do? You are correct. Distilled water is the purest we can drink as it contains only hydrogen and oxygen. Of course, we must include fresh raw fruit and vegetable juices everyday, as they are loaded with organic mineral elements the only kind our body can use. " Natural water " contains inorganic inactive minerals that are incompatible with our body and cause great harm over time. Natural water is lifeless, gross and incompatible with our cells, and does not contain enzymes ( the essence of life). A lifetime accumulation of inorganic calcium (found in natural water) clogs our veins and arteries, which can result in coronary thrombosis, arterial occlusion (obstruction of the blood vessels), aterosclerosis. Many times this results in a fatal heart attack. Natural water comes from springs, wells, lakes, rivers and faucets. Its inorganic mineral elements have been collected by contact with rocks, earth and soil. This unhealthy water goes from the esophagus to the stomach, to the small intestine, and then is either transported to the liver for distribution into the system, or if unable to disintegrated (because of inorganic minerals), is passed into the colon. (Liquids pass through blood vessels in the small intestine's walls). Whatever is in colloidal form (a stateof very fine suspended particles), goes along with the liquid into the liver. Now the liver begins to clog with minute inorganic minerals such as calcium (limestone) and magnesium Our bodies are composed of the same minerals, but they are in an organic form, not an inorganic form. The minerals that our bodies need for replenishment, regeneration and survival, must come to us through raw vegetables and fruit, fresh juices, nuts and seeds. We can only use, assimilate, digest and absorb minerals in their organic form. With fresh, raw vegetables and fruit juices, the plant's roots go deep into the soil and pick up the inorganic minerals and change them to usable organic minerals for us. With natural water, however, our cells are called upon to reject the debris cells from it's inherent inorganic minerals. The kidneys and other secreting organs attempt to throw off all this accumulated debris, however, a large part stays in our bodies, contributing to rigidity, ossification, so-called " old age " stiffness and early death. Distilled water leaches out the unusable inorganic limestone, rock residue, etc. It acts like a magnet, to pick up discarded cells, rejected minerals and debris. With the help of the blood and lymph system this waste is then carried to the kidneys for elimination from our body. The only water the blood and Iymph can actually use is pure distilled water, or fresh fruit and vegetable juices. There is a belief that distilled water leaches out minerals from the body. This is not true. It only collects and removes inorganic minerals that have already been refused and rejected by the cells. More than twenty years ago, Norman Walker, D.Sc., suggested an experiment everyone can do at home. Before you start, do a urine inspection to see how clear it is. Then use only distilled water for three weeks (make sure you cook with distilled water also). At the end of this time period, you will be astonished with the amount of sediment and debris found in your urine.* Filtering tap water is useless-- it only removes what is floating or mixed with the water-the smaller matter remains in solution. And of course, I need not mention the abundance of poisonous, cancer-causing material added to the water to " protect " us from harmful bacteria and germs. Pesticides and metals in the water compound the problem. I will now not drink from a $5,000 water system I had installed years ago, before I knew better. Spring water looks clear and transparent, however, it is loaded with sold inorganic minerals- not to mention parasitic. Bottled mountain spring water is loaded with chemicals to make it taste good and look clear. Bottled drinking water is water from a tap sold to unknowing, unsuspecting people. * Note: No liquid or water can " leach " organic minerals out, once they have become intergrated in the body; only inorganic minerals rejected by the cells and tissues, which if not evacuated, can cause arterial obstructions and more serius damage over long periods of time, will be removed. these inorganic minerals must be removed, and distilled waterwill do the job for you.
