Cold Hard Facts About Drinking Water

Minerals in Our Drinking Water: Inorganic vs. Organic

Learn about drinking water. There are 120 inorganic elements that make up the earth’s surface. Inorganic minerals are referred to as salts or mineral salts. When these inorganic minerals are dissolved in water they are referred to as “total dissolved solids” or TDS. Throughout our lives we have been taught that we need minerals in our diet; no one disputes this need. However, many dispute the correct source and composition needed to supply our bodies with these necessary minerals.

Should these minerals be organic or inorganic? Many feel that our drinking water is a good source of minerals needed by the human body. Is this so? Should we depend on our drinking water or our food to supply our minerals?

  • Minerals found in drinking water are known as “inorganic.”
  • Minerals found in our food supply are known as “organic.”

Perhaps the following articles and excerpts will be helpful in determining answers for yourself.

Your Water and Your Health: Mineral Water vs. Pure Water

Dr. Allen E. Banik with Carlson Wade

“It is believed that mineral waters help furnish elements for body metabolism. But there is scientific proof to suggest that many of these minerals are in an inorganic (dead) form. While they may enter the circulation, they cannot be used in the physiological process of building the human cell. These inorganic minerals only interfere with the delicate and complex biology of the body. They may also overwork the kidneys.

For example, it would be biologically impossible to nourish the body with iron by taking “iron filings” or any other form of inorganic iron. The best way to nourish the body with iron is through fresh and, preferably, raw fruits and vegetables.

With this in mind, we can see that mineral water may give “dead” or “inorganic” minerals to the body which cannot be properly assimilated.”.

Dr. Henry A. Schroeder, eminent scientist and world authority on minerals, says: “The minerals which the human body needs that are in the water are insignificant compared to those found in food.”

The American Medical Journal states, “The body’s need for minerals is largely met through foods, NOT DRINKING WATER.”

Fact: The organic minerals in tap water represent only 1% of the total mineral content of the water.

One glass of orange juice contains more beneficial minerals than thirty gallons of untreated tap water.

The Shocking Truth About Water

Paul C. Bragg, N.D., Ph.D.
Life Extension Specialist

“What the human body cannot utilize or excrete, it must store. Consequently, the inorganic salts (inorganic minerals) are stored and in time take their toll in the form of hardening of the arteries, stones within the kidneys, urethras, gallbladder, joints and an etiologic factor in enlargement of the adipose cell (fat cell). To be one hundred percent healthy, the human body must be free of inorganic minerals.

“When pure water enters the human body, it leaves no residue. It is free of all inorganic salts. It is the perfect drink for internal cleanliness and health. Reverse osmosis water is crystal clear with every impurity removed, ready for and perfect for human consumption, free from all pollutants including inorganic salts, organic material, bacteria, and viruses. No other water excels as fit for human consumption.”

— Dr. T.C. McDaniel, Director of Professional Affairs,
The National Foundation for Prevention of Obesity

There are Minerals and Minerals

“The minerals in the Natural Waters are inactive. They do not contain enzymes, the essence of life. Nature has made provision to install life into these mineral elements by means of the development of the growth and maturity of plants. In the course of the plant’s growth, the roots collect minerals from the earth, convert them into live organic elements and absorb them into the stem, the leaves, the seeds and the flower and fruit.

It is natural that the use of fresh raw vegetable and fruit juices should furnish the cells and tissues of the body with the finest kind and quality of nourishment in the form of ultra-microscopic minerals replete with enzymes.”

Water: Friend or Foe?

We have been told for years about the importance of drinking plenty of water every day. 70% of our body is composed of water, in fact, no life could exist on earth without water, but is the water we are now drinking really beneficial to us or harmful.

How does water work in our body? It helps us digest food, maintain proper body temperature, gives our lungs the moisture we need to breathe, provides for the form and function of our body’s 100 trillion cells, it is the primary ingredient in all bodily fluids including blood supply, lymph, saliva, glandular secretions and cerebrospinal fluid, to name a few things water does in the body. Water constitutes, regulates, flows through, cleanses and helps nourish every single part of your body. But the wrong kind of water- with inorganic minerals, chemicals, and other contaminants- can pollute, clog up and turn to stone in every part of your body. According to Dr. Norman Walker, everything you eat or drink goes into your stomach and then into 20-25 feet of small intestine, from there food which can be assimilated is transferred to the liver for distribution to the rest of your system; while most of what cannot be utilized is passed on as waste into the colon. Liquids pass readily through the microscopic blood vessel in the wall of the small intestine so whatever the liquid contains in colloidal form goes along with the liquid right into the liver. (This includes inorganic minerals, the most common of which is calcium-lime, a primary ingredient in making concrete and cement). Once it reaches the liver everything is cleared from it except for the hydrogen and oxygen, that is pure water, and this is the only kind of water which the blood and the lymph can use in their work. According to Dr. Walker, if a person drinks 2 pints of water a day, this will total 4500 gallons of water passing through his body over a 70-year span. If it is not distilled, Dr. Walker estimates this 4500 gallons will include 200-300 pounds of rock that the body cannot utilize. Most will be eliminated through excretory channels. But some of this will stay in the body, causing stiffness in the joints, hardening of the arteries, kidney stones, gallstones and blockages of arteries, microscopic capillaries and other passages in which liquids flow through our entire body.

What is being added to our water or being found in our water? Chlorine- being added to “poison” the bacteria in our water, if you can smell it, it may enter the intestinal tract to destroy helpful bacteria. (It was used as a weapon in WW I ). It has been linked to heart disease, senility, cancers of the bladder, liver, pancreas, colon and urinary tract. Fluoride- one of the most potent poisons known to man. Used in high concentrations as a roach and rat killer and pesticide. In an update of Paul Bragg’s book The Shocking Truth About Water, he cites an ABC News study revealing that more than 700 chemicals have been found in our drinking water, and 129 of these chemicals have been cited by the EPA as posing serious health risks. Yet the EPA requires testing for only 14 of these chemicals.

Options:

Distilled or Reverse Osmosis are the only options we recommend. And the Reverse Osmosis is only if you know that the filters and membranes are changed frequently. If this is not happening the R.O. is drastically less effective
