People often ask me if all water ionizers create hexagonal water. There are many ways to produce hexagonal water, and ionized water is one of them. I am going to guess that all of the water ionizers I sell do produce hexagonal water. To my knowledge they haven’t all been specifically tested, but the founding researcher who discovered hexagonal water, Dr. Emoto, has tested the Jupiter Orion and found it to produce a perfect hexagonal crystal. The following picture shows the ionized water crystal Dr. Emoto found.
How Is Ionized Water and Hexagonal Water Related?
Hexagonal Water:
Water that contains a healthy balance of minerals and which is not polluted or contaminated with toxins tends to form a hexagonal shaped crystal when frozen. Scientist, Dr. Emoto, discovered the relationship between water that forms hexagonal shaped crystals and water which is healthy, natural and unpolluted [as found high up in a mountain spring]. Dr. Emoto found that water from the tap as well as bottled waters, distilled water and other water either polluted or devoid of minerals didn’t produce beautiful crystals, but instead produced ugly, disorganized forms when frozen. Here is Dr. Emoto’s video:
Ionized Water:
Ionized water is hexagonal water, but it’s more than that. A water ionizer splits the water clusters and so the water molecules are found in clusters of about 6 instead of cluster sizes of 13 water molecules or so. This may be one of the reasons it shows up as hexagonal water. The pH of the alkaline water produced by a water ionizer is high enough to where when you drink it you can provide your body with the alkaline buffers it needs to reverse the acidic-disease-cycles it has been trying to fight off for years. The ORP of ionized water is highly negative, which provides your body with an excess of antioxidants to ward off cardio-vascular disease, cancers, and other diseases caused by oxidation. The pH and ORP of ionized water cannot be produced in any other way than through water ionization. This video gives a complete explanation of the benefits of alkaline water and ORP.
A water technician pointed out to me the other day that if you’re going on vacation or not going to use your water ionizer for more than a few days, you should take proper precautions to prevent bacteria from growing in the unused filters. It’s a very simple thing to do.
Remove your water ionizer filters and let them drain in the sink drain for an hour or two.
Put them in a plastic bag and then into the refrigerator for storage.
Do this with any prefilters you are using as well.
Another thing you could do, if you don’t like this idea for some reason, is to get a neighbor or friend to come over every day or two to your home and pour a gallon or two of ionized water [of course they should hopefully drink this ionized water rather than just pour it down the drain]. This way the filters are provided with clean fresh water every day or two and the water won’t go stale.
A customer asked me the other day if he boiled acid water, would it become more neutral or remain acidic. I hadn’t done this test before, and I didn’t know. So, I got some acid water from my Athena water ionizer and boiled it to find out what happened. Here’s the video:
For water ionizer owners who aren’t able to watch the above video, here’s the results. The acid water started out at 3.3 pH and after boiling and cooling down enough to test it, the water tested at 3.5 pH. So almost no change was made in the water’s acidity.
On the other hand, whenever I’ve boiled alkaline water and let it cool, and tested it, I’ve seen drastic changes in the pH and ORP [like going from a 10 pH down to a 6].
The research I’m about to tell you about proved that cells can live far longer and healthier than we think. But they need the right fluids and they need these replenished daily.
Nobel Prize winner Dr. Alexis Carrel did a 28-year experiment [1912-1940] which gave mankind [those who cared to look] a new outlook on disease and aging. He literally kept cells from a chicken heart alive and reproducing new cells for 28 years! A chicken’s lifespan is far less than this. So why did these chicken cells live so well and so long? Dr Carrel did this by placing the cells in a saline solution that was the perfect temperature, pH, and nutrient/mineral balance [similar to your body's fluids after drinking ionized water]. He replaced this solution daily (cleaning away the toxic [acidic] wastes). Eventually, after 28 years the purpose of the experiment was achieved. The cells did not die of aging they simply stopped the experiment and Dr. Carrel concluded the following:
“The cell is immortal. It is merely the fluid in which it floats which degenerates.Renew this fluid at intervals, give the cells what they require for nutrition and, as far as we know, the pulsation of life may go on forever.”
So, cells do not have to age or become diseased and at least one reason they do is because of the acidic wastes which are trapped in the cells. Ionized water can help you with that!
When cells [which are otherwise properly nourished] are bathed and cleansed daily they’re allowed to function properly and they don’t become diseased!
We can’t take our cells and put them into a perfectly formulated solution and change this solution daily like Dr. Carrel did, but we can drink plenty of alkaline ionized water daily.
I’ve been drinking ionized water for years and only just recently started using reverse-osmosis-remineralized-water as my source water. I had no subjective knowledge of reverse osmosis prior to about 6 months ago, so I am writing this blog post for others who are in that situation.
There are many reasons one might need to use reverse osmosis. But, there is a serious problem with Reverse osmosis, and that is: it takes too much out of the water, leaving it void of all the healthy minerals and leaving it acidic as a result. RO used to be considered unhealthy, “dead water”. However, now, with the use of the Water Remineralizer, RO water is a healthy source water to use with a water ionizer. With my reverse osmosis system, the RO water before being remineralized is about a pH of 4, and after remineralization it’s about a 9 pH. If you’re not happy with your municipal water, co-op or well water as a healthy enough source for your ionized water, reverse osmosis might be the very best option for you.
Reverse osmosis was originally developed to remove salt from seawater. Which prior to that time, only distillation would do this trick. So if you use a whole house sodium-based water softener, something like a reverse-osmosis-remineralizer-system would be needed for your drinking water.
To give you an idea of just how small of a particle an RO system will filter out, here’s a chart that might help you grasp it:
A 1 micron filter will filter out particles up to 1millionth of a meter [or 1 thousandth of a millimeter] [or the width of a single strand of hair].
A .1 micron filter will filter particles 10 times smaller than 1 micron.
A .01 micron filter will filter particles 100 times smaller than 1 micron.
A reverse osmosis unit will filter particles from 1,000 times up to one million times smaller than 1 micron.
There is another problem with reverse osmosis: that is the time to filter using RO is very slow. Before I got my reverse-osmosis-remineralizer system I could get a gallon jug filled, no problem, for my husband to take to work with him, but now [with the RO system hooked in] the pressure drops too low after about 2 quarts. Then you have to wait for 20 minutes to fill up the rest of the gallon. So, you may not be able to get all the water you want, when you want it with RO.
I’m not really complaining [too much], because…
I LOVE MY NEW REVERSE-OSMOSIS-REMINERALIZER-SYSTEM!
But, for someone wanting ionized water on the run, just keep it in mind that using reverse osmosis as your source water will slow things down, and you may run out of water during heavy-use times.
I did a series of videos, trying to figure things out with my reverse osmosis system – so I could answer my customers’ questions and communicate more accurately about reverse osmosis systems in general. Those videos follow this short section giving brief answers to the main questions I think people need answered. This is a work-in-progress, so I’ll post what I have so far done and learned…but add to it later as I find out more answers to my own questions.
How Much Does an RO System Cut Your Water Flow to the Water Ionizer?
The RO System cuts the pressure to the water ionizer quite a bit, so it is capable of flowing through the water ionizer about 40% slower — almost in half [in my observation]. So, a glass of water takes about twice the time to fill using RO as it would using your regular municipal water.
How Much Water Does a 6-Gallon Reverse Osmosis Tank Hold?
It holds about 4 1/2 gallons of water. The rest is filled with air [pressurized], which is necessary for maintaining the water pressure.
Using a 6-Gallon Tank, How Much Ionized Water in One Pouring Can I Expect to be Able to Get?
After the initial 40 ounces or so of ionized water production, there is a severe lessening in the water pressure to where it slows down so much the water ionizer stops ionizing [or ionizes the water only intermittently].
How Can you Tell How Much Water is in a Full Tank?
Water weighs about 8.35 pounds per gallon. Knowing the weight of the empty tank [11 lbs.] and the weight of the full tank [46 lbs] you can mathematically figure out the amount of water in the “6 gallon” tank. [35/8.35 = 4.2 gallons]
Here I am Weighing the Full RO Tank
Here I am Talking a Little About the Way the RO and Remineralizer Work
Here I Am Showing You How Much RO Water Will Flow through the Water Ionizer Before the Flow Rate Gets Too Slow.
Here I Am Weighing the Tank to See How Many Gallons [Total] Were Run Through the Water Ionizer
The tank weighed 38.8 pounds after pouring close to 2 quarts of alkaline water from the water ionizer [as opposed to 45.8 pounds full]. So it lost 7 pounds, which is the equavalent of about a little more than 3/4 gallon. So…
How much water can you flow through a water ionizer before the pressure drops too much?
Ans.: About 3/4 gallon out of the 4.5 gallons in the tank.
That having been said, the tank will replenish that 3/4 gallon in a pretty short time. So, in about 20 minutes you should be able to get another 2 quarts of ionized water from your water ionizer.
As I stated earlier, I’m still learning. As I refine my skills and knowledge related to reverse osmosis systems I’ll share that knowledge here. I do have a feeling I could pressurize my tank better and that should help in getting more ionized water at a time.
Water ionizers are now being certified as “medical devices” in Canada. So far the Jupiter, and now Chanson water ionizers are officially certified medical devices in Canada. This is great news! Previously Oriental countries [where water ionizers were invented and have been used and tested for over 40 years] were the only countries that certified water ionizers as medical devices. It means that perhaps soon the United States may jump on board, and M.D.’s may start writing prescriptions as they now can do in Canada. This would help a lot of people to be able to take the tax deduction or even have their insurance company pay for part of the purchase!
It makes sense for doctors to prescribe preventative things like water ionizers for their patients, although the drug companies might not like it, because they really do help people with their health! But of course doctors want proof. That is understandable. I offer lots of proof throughout my website [e.g., check out my Research Videos button above], but here’s just a little bit of great objective proof:
The picture above is an example of Ronnie Ruiz, whose blood was photographed by a nutritional microscopist over 18 months ago. Ronnie’s blood was clearly acidic. It was in a very unhealthy state. The spikes you see in some of the blood cells mean these blood cells are becoming oxidized and there is possibly high cholesterol. The irregularly shaped blood cells are an indication of disease or unhealthy condition in the body. The cells that look like they have a little knob on the end are yeast cells [not a good thing to be in your blood], the blood cells that have shiny white spots in them is a sigh of iron or other nutrient deficiency [i.e., the blood cells are thinning]. The crystals that look like elongated triangles are solidified uric acid. One way our body protects us from acid is to solidify it. If left go very long, these uric acid crystals would find their way to the joints and cause pain [i.e. arthritis].
After drinking alkaline ionized water for 18 months Ronnie’s blood changed dramatically! Look at how round they are, and how evenly shaped! They’re not irregularly sized or shaped for the most part, and there’s no white spots in the middles. There’s no yeast and no signs of nutritional deficiencies or oxidation happening to the cells.
The problems that Ronnie had before drinking alkaline ionized water were: over acidity of body, and oxidation of cells. These are very common problems that probably affect almost everyone in the US. Our diet and lifestyle makes us particularly vulnerable to the problems of oxidation and over-acidity of our bodies. Buying a water ionizer could someday be considered by you as the best thing you ever did! Don’t wait until it’s too late! I’ve had almost 18 years of experience drinking ionized water; please believe me, it’s not natural to be sick!
The following video is a pretty good summary of what the causes and signs of an acidic body. Of course if you have any of these signs, you should start drinking ionized water [about a gallon per day].
Heart Disease is the #1 killer in the US! It kills more than 2,500 people per day [75,000/month!]
Why do people get heart disease? Heart disease is caused by atherosclerosis [plaque] lining the walls of the blood vessles. Your blood vessel system is huge! If you stretch your blood vessels out, it would be 100,000 miles long! It’s about the most important system in your body, because it delivers nutrients to every cell of your body and removes wastes from them as well.
Anyone could develop this awful, but common, disease. So pay attention, because there’s good news!
Dr. Louis Lgnarro (Nobel Prize Winner, 1998, and author of No More Heart Disease) has discovered that heart disease is preventable, curable and reversable without drugs or surgery!
According to Dr. Louis Lgnarro, in his NOBEL-PRIZE-WINNING WORK and book, No More Heart Disease, heart disease is preventable and curable, and does not require drugs or surgery. This is BIG NEWS! The #1 killer in the US is CURABLE and PREVENTABLE without drugs or surgery!
Here’s part of what Dr. Lgnarro learned: the interior of your blood vessel walls are lined with a single-layer of cells, whose job it is to release nitric-oxide [a gas] when needed into your blood vessel wall. Nitric-oxide signals the blood vessel to relax and open up and allow more blood to flow through. Nitric oxide also keeps the lining of your blood-vessel walls slick, so that nothing will stick to them. When the N-O is not in sufficient quantities, your blood vessels start becoming rough and accumulate plaque. Plaque builds up and becomes a danger to your health and life. Its presence in your blood vessels is called “heart disease”.
Dr. Lgnarro also has discovered the need for a natural amino acid, l-arginine!
The common amino acid, called l-arginine, is the most important nutrient to bring the blood-vessel cells, so that they can transform that into nitric-oxide. Nitric-oxide is a gas, and so it’s not something that you can consume directly. Dr. Lgnarro discovered, though, that your blood cells will make this gas if they are supplied with the proper nutrients to do that. It makes sense that you must bring the proper nutrition to the blood vessel walls, so those cells in the inner lining of the blood vessel walls will produce nitric oxide. According to their research, the most important nutrient for the health of your blood vessels is l-arginine. You can buy this at your health food store or even at WalMart, however make sure it’s in the proper amount [about 5,000 mg./5 Grams per day]. It is inexpensive.
Dr. Louis Lgnarro also states that “Antioxidants are very important to incorporate into your diet”.
Dr. Lgnarro advises that if the cells of your blood-vessels are damaged by oxygenation [free-radicals] they won’t be able to make nitric-oxide. Therefore you should take care of your blood-vessel walls. You need ample antioxidants to fight the free radical damage that oxidation causes.
How Can Water Ionizers Help?
Shortly after drinking ionized water, the blood delivers a large supply of anti-oxidants to your cells! These are bio-available, natural, easily absorbed, don’t require digestion, and practically free antioxidants!
If you drink alkaline ionized water all day long, you will be providing your cells with a large amount of anti-oxidants all the time. Anti-oxidants are able to repair the damage caused by free radicals [oxidation/rotting], but more importantly, a constant supply of anti-oxidants can prevent further oxidation damage to your cells. If you can prevent and repair the damage of oxidation at the cellular level before it causes a disease you are saving untold amounts of trouble for your body and money, time, worry, and so on! This is where your “ounce of prevention” comes in. Also, if you can prevent oxidation from happening inside of the blood vessels, themselves, then you can keep your cardiovascular system healthy you’ll live a longer and healthier life. It is now proven by Dr. Lgnarro’s work and the work of other researchers in the field of cardiovascular disease prevention that anti-oxidants play an extremely important role in keeping your blood vessels healthy and performing their natural functions [which include warding off plaque].
A water ionizer produces water that is full of natural, absorb-able antioxidants.
The ionized water you drink [with the perfect alkalinity, mini-clustered, and full of anti oxidizing capabilities -- very low negative-ORP] will enter your mouth, pass right through your stomach [because there are no calories there is no digestion stimulated], then right into your small intestines, where it will be absorbed into your blood with most of the antioxidant capabilities still intact. This all happens within about 2 – 20 minutes after drinking that ionized water.
Once in your blood, within a very short time [seconds/minutes] that ionized water is attacking free radicals throughout your body, keeping your body from becoming oxidized [rotted] and diseased.
Oxidation in your blood vessels, according to Nobel Prize winner, Dr. Louis Lgnarro [first set of videos, below], is responsible for reducing or curtailing your body’s natural release of N-O [Nitric Oxide]. When the very thin lining of your blood vessels become damaged through oxidation, they cease to be able to do their functions properly. Every cell has functions, and the lining of your blood vessels have as one of their functions to produce nitric-oxide. When the N-O is not in sufficient quantities, that’s when your blood vessels start becoming rough and accumulate plaque.
Water Ionizers Also Give You More Energy, So You Can Get the Exercise You Need to Stay Healthy!
In addition to l-arginine and anti-oxidants, Dr. Lgnarro is convinced of the importance of exercise. He states that “Exercise is the most important way in which your body makes nitric-oxide. So it is important to incorporate at least a mild exercise program in your life.”
Dr. Lgnarro’s Videos:
Much of Dr. Lgnarro’s findings have been buried by the drug companies, especially the news about being able to cure heart disease without using a drug.
However this news will spread by ordinary people, because the story is surely substantiated. This kind of great news will spread for sure. What better use for the internet than to spread good news to people who want useful information.
Here’s a bit of trivia about drug companies: The Fortune 500 is composed of the 500 top-earning companies in the world. The combined profits of the top 10 drug companies are greater than the combined profits of the other 490 companies in the Fortune 500!
Here’s another bit of drug company trivia: The 4th leading cause of death in the US is from adverse drug reactions!
Further Study: Dr. Joe Pendergast…
Dr. Joe is Board Certified in Internal Medicine as well as Endocrinology and Metabolism and founder of Pacific Medical Research Foundation. He has been working with Dr. Lgnarro’s theories in his practice, and for the past 16 years not one of his 5,000 patients has needed surgery. Not one has been admitted to the hospital for any reason. Prior to this time he was very unhealthy himself and had referred many, many patients to the hospital, usually for some kind of cardio-vascular procedure or surgery. He uses the discoveries of Dr. Lgnarro and also does his own research into natural prevention and healing methodology.
Every day, more and more people are finding out how much a water ionizer can do for them!
Rather than just saying “I feel so much better!”, there are actually specific proofs of the benefits of a water ionizer [drinking ionized water] that I’m going to show you in this blog post. Read on to see videos and pictures of live blood under a microscope. Live blood a great way to take a good look into the inside of a person’s body to get clues as to how healthy/unhealthy that person is.
There are many clues people look at to assess their own health. Aches, pains, cold symptoms, energy, temperature, weight, mental clarity, appearance of skin, teeth, hair & nails are all things we know as either good or bad signs of our overall health. I have personally experienced improvement in all of these areas with my own body and my family…so much so that I’d say that any “conditions” we used to have are a thing of the past. They’re gone. The woman in this video is a health & nutritional coach and she gives many examples of how her clients have benefited from drinking alkaline ionized water. Here are some of the benefits she’s seen in herself and her many clients after drinking ionized water: increased energy, decreased pain, improvement of a wide variety of health conditions [hypertension, high cholesterol, bursitis, arthritis, fibro-myalsia, psoriasis, candida (yeast)].
How can a water ionizer’s fantastic health benefits be explained?
Alkaline ionized water can make immediate and dramatic changes in your blood! By the way, your blood vessles are the largest organ in your body! Within 20 minutes of drinking ionized water you can typically see a relief and improvement of many unhealthy blood conditions. Anti-oxidized, slightly alkaline blood traveling through your body is essential in the body’s well-being.
Dr. Otto Warberg (Nobel Prize Winner, 1932) stated that “Cancer is caused by the lack of oxygen and the fermentation of sugars.” This is due to a low pH acidic environment.
The slightly alkaline blood is your body has a dual function. It’s both a delivery service and a trash collection service for your cells. It brings new nutrients and oxygen to your cells with every heart-beat and picks up acidic wastes from your cells, which is equally important to the health of your cells. Think of what your town would look like if no one could ever get rid of their trash!
Dr. Louis Ignarro (Nobel Prize Winner, 1998, and author of No More Heart Disease) stated that “Antioxidants are very important to incorporate into your diet”.
Shortly after drinking ionized water, the blood delivers anti-oxidants to your cells! Anti-oxidants are able to repair the damage caused by free radicals [oxidation/rotting], but more importantly, a constant supply of anti-oxidants can prevent further oxidation damage to your cells. If you can prevent and repair the damage of oxidation at the cellular level before it causes a disease you are saving untold amounts of trouble for your body and money, time, worry, and so on! This is where your “ounce of prevention” comes in. Also, if you can prevent oxidation from happening inside of the blood vessels, themselves, then you can keep your cardiovascular system healthy you’ll live a longer and healthier life. It is now proven by Dr. Lgnarro’s work and the work of other researchers in the field of cardiovascular disease prevention that anti-oxidants play an extremely important role in keeping your blood vessels healthy and performing their natural functions [which include warding off plaque].
There is unlimited value to what this one little water ionizer can bring to you and your family!
These next videos are an inside view right right into live blood!
A live blood cell nutritional microscopist is a scientist who is trained in using microscopes to analyze a person’s blood. This process is called live blood cell analysis.
Jason, a nutritional microscopist, gives a demonstration of what ionized water can do for your blood and cells in these next two videos. He shows healthy blood in the first video and a real live before/after [drinking ionized water] demonstration in the second video.
It is amazing that 20 minutes after drinking ionized water that so many unhealthy blood conditions would visibly improve! Blood clumping has almost completely disappeared! For someone who wants proof of the effects of alkaline ionized water, this is a great video!
Some terms which are helpful to know:
An acanthocyte is a spiked red blood cell and is an indication of possible high-cholesterol and disease.
Clumped blood is an indication of poor oxygenation and an indication of an unhealthy body and/or disease.
Rouleau is the initial stages of blood clumping and an indication of an unhealthy body and/or disease.
White blood cells are normal to have in your blood as long as they’re not excessive.
Here is a video of live blood cell analysis [by Dr. Young].
In these next two videos we see more live blood cell analysis by Dr. Blaine Chambers.
Dr Chambers is very detailed in his analysis. It’s interesting in that this client’s blood has examples of uric acid crystals, free radical damage and parasites.
More Water Ionizer Testimonials!
In this next video I can really relate to this guy! He’s been drinking ionized water for many years and his testimonial is almost one-for-one the same as mine! I totally agree with his statement that if you’re on this planet, ionized water is the best thing your body needs. No matter how many vitamins you’re taking, if you’re not drinking the right amount and proper kind of water you’re wasting your time and money.
In this next video this guy has had tremendous improvements after only 5 weeks of drinking alkaline ionized water [joint swelling reduction, improvement in gout and bursitis, blood pressure dramatically improved, reversal of balding!]
Here is another client who has been drinking alkaline ionized water and has experienced wonderful and even miraculous improvements!
All of the testimonials, above, are with clients using alkaline ionized water from a KYK Genesis water ionizer, but would be equally possible with ionized water from any of the great water ionizers I sell in my Alkaline Water Plus online store.
Even with a water ionizer it is probably uncommon to NOT gain weight over the holidays! So what do you do?
If you know anything about ionized water, you probably are aware that by drinking alkaline ionized water you provide buffers to your body which helps you get rid of acid wastes [including fats] in your cells. Without the benefit of alkalinity that ionized water gives you, you may hit plateaus where you just quit losing weight! So, a water ionizer is a great help to anyone trying to lose weight!
If you don’t yet have a water ionizer, call or write me and I’ll make sure you get a great deal! Mention this blog post for a great water ionizer discount! I sell all water ionizers.
It’s important to realize that ionized water isn’t enough stimulus for weight loss all by itself. My 17 1/2 years of experience with ionized water tells me you need a few more things. I’d like to share these weight loss tips with my blog readers, so here it goes [please remember these are tips from me to you -- not medical advice]:
Drink at least 1 gallon of ionized water per day [spread throughout the day]
Don’t diet without determination! A yo-yo diet [gaining/losing/gaining/losing] is unhealthy, so if you start into a diet, do it “cold turkey” and do not allow even the slightest deviation from the routine. Realize that once you arrive at your target weight, you will need to establish and follow a long-term eating routine that keeps you at that weight [except maybe when you go on a cruise or have a vacation or holiday come around].
If you find yourself time after time cheating [because you don't have enough determination and/or control -- which IS needed] then pay for a weight loss program.
You do need determination and strength, and for some people that is easier than for others.
I will suggest one thing, that if you think you can just cheat here and there and still lose your needed weight — think about your past history. Has this approach or attitude worked for you in the past? If so, then you don’t need to read this blog post. But be honest with yourself; most people need to be strong and unwavering in order to actually lose those needed pounds and keep them off.
Establish a 3-meal-per-day [and 1-2 snacks if desired] plan for yourself. Here is the plan that works for me [which I am doing right now]! For some reason, I don’t feel excessively hungry on this diet, and I can go for several hours without thinking of food. Keep in mind your body usually has an adjustment period when you change diet habits. If you hang-in-there for about 2-3 days, you’ll get through this adjustment period. So, if on ”Day #2″ you have hunger pains, maybe add a small snack…i.e. apple, to help you through it. Don’t despair. This type of thing should only be temporary. Hunger pains are the kind of thing that go away once you’re grooved into your new diet patterns within about 2 or 3 days.
Breakfast:
I have 1 egg boiled or fried in water or a little PAM
I have about 1/2 cup fresh uncooked veggies [I use cauliflower, but you could substitute broccoli, celery, lettuce, spinach] [stay away from peas, potatoes, corn, and canned veggies]
I have no salad dressing [you could use maybe a little vinegar...no oil]
I have 6 wheat saltines [you could substitute another kind of no-fat cracker]
Lunch:
I have 3-4 oz. lean meat [like chicken, tuna, turkey]
I have about 1/2 cup fresh uncooked veggies [I use cauliflower, but you could substitute broccoli, celery, lettuce, spinach] [stay away from peas, potatoes, corn, and canned veggies]
I have no salad dressing [you could use maybe a little vinegar...no oil]
I have 6 wheat saltines [you could substitute another kind of no-fat cracker]
Dinner:
I have 3-4 oz. lean meat [like chicken, tuna, turkey]
I have about 1/2 cup slightly-cooked veggies [I use cauliflower, broccoli, celery & a couple of little carrot pieces] [You could substitute lettuce, spinach, etc... but stay away from peas, potatoes, corn, and canned veggies]
I have no salad dressing [you could use maybe a little vinegar...no oil]
I have 6 wheat saltines [you could substitute another kind of no-fat cracker]
Snacks: I don’t always feel a need for a snack, and when I don’t …then I don’t have a snack. But if I’m too hungry in between meals or even when it’s close to bed time….I’ll have one of the following [however not more than twice per day]:
apple [I usually choose this, but the others are okay too]
banana
orange/or grapefruit
pear
strawberries
[no grapes, cherries, or dried fruit]
You may need to adjust this to suit your desired weight. I’m 5′7″ and my desired weight is 135 lbs. A 6′ tall man, for instance, may need double the amounts I’m consuming.
Once you get close to your desired weight [within 5 lbs.], then you should begin to add extra food and exercize into the mix. I’m not a good exercizer, so I’ll leave those tips for someone else to give. However, I believe that any kind of hard work [gardening, painting, cleaning] is a good potential substitute for the exercize your body needs.
For extra food: A little at a time [like maybe one portion of one of the following items extra per day], add some salad dressing, bread, mayo, and fattier meats. Continue to add a little per day [and even increase some of your above portions] until your weight loss stops at your desired weight. Take your time getting back slowly to a more normal eating routine. Spread this out over about 3-4 weeks.
Once you start adding things to your diet, you may find yourself still losing …even beyond your desired weight. This is not a signal to start over eating. Just continue to add a little more portions or items at a time until you are stabilized. You can also add a sweet [like a desert or something] here and there. Watch the scale and be ready to backtrack if you’ve added too much.
I’d be interested in finding out how successful these weight loss tips are for people who try them. They’ve always worked for me — very well! Please come back after trying my tips and let me know how you do. Thanks!
You may wonder what a report on Alzheimer’s is doing in a water ionizer blog.
Several months ago I did some research for a water-ionizer-blog article I was writing on Fluoride. Fluoride is an acidic element which is eliminated to a great extent [into the acid water stream -- bottom hose of your water ionizer ] when your water is ionized….THANK GOODNESS!
What I discovered in my Fluoride research had a great impact on me:
Fluoride is linked to Alzheimer’s, learning disabilities and many other diseases.
It’s actually a poison [similar in its effects to lead poisoning]. This discovery hit-home with me, because my Mother had just died of Alzheimer’s and that was an awful disease. It’s the kind of disease where you really actually lose your loved one long before their body dies. In other words, she was so filled with dimentia, she was not herself for years, before she actually died. She actually didn’t remember anything meaningful for life: her family, her past, or even who she was, and this wonderfully strong, smart, and independent woman became a complete dependent until she finally couldn’t even breathe for herself anymore.
In my research I discovered [as many before me had] that the toxic wastes of aluminum manufacturing have been [at the tax-payer's expense] dumped into our water supplies for the past 40+ years! Actually I knew Fluoride was added to the water, but like almost everyone else in the country, I trusted that this additive was safe for us [and needed] or it wouldn’t be added. In my research I discovered vast amounts of reports implicating the ingestion of Fluoride as being linked to many diseases [including Alzheimer's and learning disabilities] and very unsafe, and I also discovered that virtually nothing was being done to stop it.
Back in the day when adding Fluoride was a new idea, the authorities [the people studying Fluoride safety] were the very same scientists who said the atom bomb testing was safe. These were the leading authorities of the day…but were later discredited and found to be biased [in fact they needed to say Fluoride was safe or they would be exposed for the great damages they'd authorized]. What we did [as a country] was: 1. Take the word of people with an agenda [that Fluoride was safe] 2. We set up a system of dumping Fluoride into drinking water, and 3. We never put in the proper checks and balances to ensure this was a good decision, 4. We never re-evaluated to make sure that the actual proper studies were done [by independent non-biased researchers] as to the safety of this Fluoride dumping, 5. We didn’t even re-evaluate when it was discovered that the original “authorities” had an agenda to make Fluoride look good, and 6. We didn’t really research Fluoride well enough to find out that the only real benefit of Fluoride was when it was applied topically, and that ingesting it was poisonous!
Please read my article on Fluoride if you haven’t already done so. We need people to put the pressure on the EPA, other government agencies and their federal, state and local representatives to take action in stopping the dumping of Fluoride into our municipal water. The scientists who gave the stamp of approval to adding fluoride to municipal water all over the country were later discredited as being corrupt. There are no really validated reasons anymore for dumping this poison into our water! At the time when my mother got Alzheimer’s, I didn’t know there was something I could have done, right then, to help her. Since then, I’ve discovered a few things which can be done, and I will share these with you [below]. As I discover more things I’ll add them to my blog.
What can you do to help reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s?
Use a fluoride prefilter or reverse-osmosis-remineralizer to take out all the harmful junk in your water and then add back in all organic, healthy minerals.
Use a water ionizer [of course] to get rid of the acidic elements that may remain after prefiltration and alkalize your body.
Here’s really the meat of this blog-post: A customer sent me this link [knowing I was interested in Alzheimers]. When I read it I was amazed! I did some further research and found a six-part video series with the doctor who wrote the article. So, naturally I included the video series in this blog-post [see below]. It’s a must-see video series. Even if you don’t know someone with Alzheimer’s now, chances are you will. With the growing prevalence of this disease, there are predicted to be over 50 million people with Alzheimer’s by 2050 [unless, of course, we do some smart things to prevent it. I wish I had this 5 years ago, and so I'm passing it on to you! It has nothing to do with water ionizers, but I just feel compelled to share it. It's an article from a doctor whose husband at 58 years old got Alzheimer's. She tried all the conventional treatments for Alzheimer's, and none stopped the rapid onset of dimentia for her husband. His disease came on suddenly, and progressed quickly. Due to effort, luck and her superior ability to put two and two together, Dr. Mary Newport has actually found something that is working to reverse part of the damage done by Alzheimers. But it's not a drug: it's all natural. With more research, this may become the cure of the century. Don't wait till Alzheimers happens to you or a loved one to read this article...the steps described in the article [and videos] could actually prevent Alzheimer’s, and it won’t be anytime soon before this study has reached its conclusion. In the meantime, people learning about Dr. Mary Newport’s work are trying the methods she outlines and seeing remarkable benefits. Like she says, “It can’t hurt to try.” Read this article and watching the videos [below]. I believe it could change your future health dramatically. Here is the article: http://www.coconutketones.com/WhatIfCure.pdf
Brief Summary of Alzheimer’s Article: Dr. Mary Newport live in Fllorida [interestingly near an aluminum manufacturer]. Dr Newport’s husband at the time of the article [July, 2008] was 58 years old and had Alzheimer’s. He started showing signs of it years earlier, and they were very dilligent in getting him all the best treatment. Despite the exceptional care and treatment, his condition worsened very quickly. Dr. Newport continued to study medical journals in hope that she’d find something that helped her husband. Finally, through chance, luck, and probably because she was really looking, she read about a study using a nutritional substance, Ketasyn, which is another name for MCT oil, which was making some impressive improvements in about half the patients. She wanted her husband in that study, but he didn’t qualify [as he was too far gone]. However, with further digging she found that this oil can be found in health-food stores in the form of natural, extra-virgin, organic coconut oil. Because she understood this research article and was able to find the oil, she attempted on her own to help her husband. Almost instantly her husband’s mental abilities improved drastically. At the time of the article, he wasn’t fully recovered, but the fact of improvement was clearly significant. Nothing was stopping the rapid decline before that. The point of Dr. Newport’s article was to help raise awareness for all people. This oil can be taken by anyone, and is actually very healthy for you. I, for one, went ahead and ordered some yesterday. Here’s the link I used: http://www.assuredorganics.com/oils.html although you can get it from many sources. This company offers large quantities at cheap prices.
Here is the 6-part YouTube video interview with Dr. Mary Newport:
This is all new late-breaking news! I will contact this doctor and follow her research…and bring you the latest reports as I find them, so stay tuned! Also here are links to Dr. Mary Newport’s website and Blog:
