| "Distilled water is the greatest solvent on earth. (It is) the only water that can be taken into the body without damage to the tissues. What we as scientists and the public have never realized is that minerals collected in the body from water are all inorganic minerals, which cannot be assimilated (digested) by the body. The only minerals that the body can utilize are the organic minerals (from fruits and vegetables). All other types of minerals are foreign substances to the body and must be disposed of or eliminated. Today, many progressive doctors prescribe distilled water to their patients. All kidney machines operate on distilled water." - Allen E. Banik, M.D. Author, "The Choice is Clear"
"Distilled water should be used if the usual water supply (tap or bottled) contains more than 20 mg. of sodium per liter." American Heart Association(1986)
"When distilled water enters the body, it leaves no residue of any kind. It is free of salts and sodium. It is the most perfect water for the healthy functioning of the kidneys(83% water). It is the perfect liquid for the blood(83% water), the ideal liquid for the efficient functioning of the lungs(86% water), stomach, liver(85% water) and other vital organs. Why? Because it is free of all inorganic minerals. It is so pure that all liquid drug prescriptions are formulated with distilled water. Dr. Paul Bragg, N.D. Ph.T., from his book: "The Shocking Truth About Water
"Water Hardness" is the underlying cause of many, if not all, of the diseases resulting from poisons in the intestinal tract. These (hard minerals) pass from the intestinal walls and get into the lymphatic system, which delivers all of it's products to the blood, which in turn, distributes to all parts of the body. This is the cause of much human disease. Dr. Charles Mayo (Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota)
“U.S. drinking water contains more than 2100 toxic chemicals that can cause cancer.” Recent report by the Ralph Nader Study Group, after reviewing over 10,000 documents acquired through the Freedom Of Information Act
"Up to two thirds of all cancers may be attributed to these low level toxins.... once contaminated our ground water will remain so for tens of thousands of years… if not geologic time!” The Federal Council On Environmental Quality
"The greatest damage done by inorganic minerals (hard)---plus waxy cholesterol and salt---is to the small arteries and other blood vessels of the brain (75% water). Hardening of the arteries and calcification of blood vessels starts on the day you start taking inorganic chemicals (and minerals from tap water) into our bodies." Dr. Paul Bragg, N.D. Ph.T., from his book: "The Shocking Truth About Water"
"The body's need for minerals is largely met through foods, not drinking water." - American Medical Journal
"The best system to purify water is distillation, which boils the water into steam to kill organisms and also remove impurities" - The Great Book of Health Secrets: 1991 Boardroom Reports Inc
"Distilled water is the purest form available. Distilled water helps to excrete excessive heavy metals from the body." Who Killed Candida?; 1991 Vicki Glassburn
"These is only one water that is clean, steam distilled water. No other substance on our planet does so much to keep us healthy and get us well as water does." Dietary Wellness; 1993 Dr. James Balch, M.D. |
