Dangers of Distilled Water

Dr. Mercola

May 08 2002

Physical Proof that Distilled Water is Inferior

Dr. Masaru Emoto, a visionary researcher from Japan

received certification from the Open International University as a Doctor of

Alternative Medicine. Subsequently he was introduced to the concept of micro

cluster water in the US and Magnetic Resonance Analysis technology. The quest

thus began to discover the mystery of water. He undertook extensive research of

water around the planet. At length he realized that it was in the frozen

crystal form that water showed us its true nature.

Dr Emoto began by studying the crystallization

process of water. It all started in 1994 when he took samples of water from

various sources, froze a few droplets, examined them under a dark field

microscope and photographed them. He photographed the crystal formations

produced by water as it passes from liquid into freezing state. It is like

taking a snapshot of the water at that moment in time. He quickly realized that

the crystals that formed from water depended highly on the natural health of

the water. In other words, water from natural springs, healing water sources

etc, formed beautiful and complex crystalline geometries - like snowflakes.

Water that had been distilled, polluted or passed

through consumption had lost its inner order. This leads to the realization

that natural healthy water carries an 'inner order' defining its nature and

properties.

Dr. Mercola's Comments:

In April I attended the SkaSys lecture by Dr. Hans

Lechner. This amazing technology allows one to successfully harness

consciousness as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. Dr. Lechner shared details

of his recent meeting with Dr. Emoto and it became clear that this technology

could clearly demonstrate the danger of distilled water visually.

Although it is controversial I am firmly convinced

that distilled water is harmful to your health. One of the major foundational

reasons is that distilled water is highly acidic. Most of us are far too acidic

already and the last thing we need to be drinking is a fluid that will make us

even more acidic.

Distilled water is alleged to be beneficial due to

its lack of contaminants. Well, many of the devices that distill water are made

of metal and will actually add certain toxic metals like nickel back to the

water, which actually worsens health.

Since distilled water is like a vacuum without any

minerals, it will actually leach beneficial minerals from your body to balance

it out. While this may be beneficial for a short period during some sort of

detoxification regimen, this is usually highly counter productive in the long

run.

Then there is the physics of the water. Water is

structured and when it is distilled the structure becomes profoundly disturbed

as can be seen by darkfield photography.

It is possible to restructure the water by putting

it in a clear glass container, adding a few minerals and leaving it out in the

sunshine for a day. This will help to restore the normal beneficial structure

that water should have to promote health.

But although the article promises physical proof, Mercola fails to support his

claim that water " leaches " minerals from the body, or to support his other

statements. His language implies (from a doctor no less) a lack of biological

control over the processes, which is not the case. I think his intellect is in

dispute in this controversy.

Distilled water (or pure rain water?) is the universal solvent. It will be

partly mineralised in the gut perhaps, then demineralised again as it's being

absorbed, because dissolved minerals are absorbed primarily with appropriate

controls so we don't die of toxicity from a single meal or an hour at a clay or

salt lick that contains too much of one kind of mineral nutrient OR toxin. By

way of example if my dog absorbed all that calcium out of a single meal of bones

he would probably die so it's a good thing for him that calcium absorption is

controlled

So, cries of " prove it! " are inevitable I guess.

all good,

Duncan

Dear Duncan,

Why don't you write to him and ask him to prove his statements?

Hi Duncan.

I agree with you. I have noticed that Mercola sometimes parrots other

people's opinions without doing the necessary research himself. When you get

to be as huge an enterprise as Mercola has become, and you have many other

people working for you, it's easy to get sloppy.

Basically, DW does NOT leach out minerals from the body, for the reasons you

mention. The dangers of drinking DW over long periods of time are related to

the fact that pure DW is both mineral-deficient and also slightly acidic

(due to how it reacts with carbon dioxide in the air to create carbonic

acid).

I go into this in great detail -- and cite reliable research studies from

sources that may surprise you -- in Chapter 3 of my Rife Handbook. About 15

pages are devoted to water and minerals. It took me two years to research

the distilled water question to my satisfaction. I stand by the research I

have done. Periodically I see the DW chestnut come around again, and I

always go through the same spiel explaining in a nutshell what the story is.

But I guess Internet rumors die hard.

As usual, the question " Is DW good or bad? " does not lend itself to a simple

answer. Although some people feel better drinking it, that's probably

because the water they were drinking before is contaminated and toxis. I

rarely suggest that people drink DW unless they are very careful to

replenish their minerals. However, DW does make great Colloidal Silver. You

can't make CS without DW.

It's too bad that the Mercola juggernaught is run by a flock of parrots

....he was so useful for a few years.

Thanks Nenah for doing the digging.

I make my CS with reverse osmosis water but we start with the best unprocessed

municipal water in the country.

all good,
