I didn’t know what a Kagen water machine was at the time, but I googled it and voila, it’s an alkaline water machine

:Kristine? your response

“It is definitely not possible to say RO is fine”

They’ll be posting more about Reverse Osmosis water and more on this topic in the near future.

So, if you’re drinking Reverse Osmosis water right now, um, I guess it might be better to just stop. Let me say this: if I was drinking Reverse Osmosis water I would stop drinking it based on the research I know :Kristine and :Michael are doing and have done on water. There.. my opinion and what I would do.

So now my local organic health food store is my source of distilled water.

they’re product is Reverse Osmosis but labeled as Distilled and not Steam Distilled correct?

if that is the case, it leaves a serious bad taste in my mouth about how this is marketed. That is scary.

Now I want to go look at all the fine print on the “Distilled” water I see. I’ll do my own investigation as well

Woe

Very good…..Thanks for sharing.

This is wrong from a scientific point of view. Apparently you care about scientific facts, so I would suggest you rephrase this.

I find there are some people that will only listen to hearsay and listen to the lies about distilled water. These people reject all proof and evidence you show them and hold fast to the lies they were told and that they themselves retell. They do this because it makes them money for the product they sell. Many of these over priced scam products come from countries other than Canda or the US.

In Canada a water treatment plant failed and the operator still claimed the water was safe. He faked the reports to the Government and said the water was safe. People died (within weeks) because of this - even his own grandchild!! Yet he still claimed the water was safe when he knew it was not.

I explained to my sister that if those people had a home water distiller those people would still be alive and well today.
She thinks distilled water is bad so thinks the people would still be dead if they used distilled water as she thinks distilled water will kill you(how sad). She thinks this because she got involved with a scam from overseas that sell a small pipe you clamp on your water line. They claim that it makes the water “Live” to get people to shell out 800 dollars or more. I have tested the water from a house with this device on it and it was NO different than tap water (before and after made NO difference) - so I call it a scam.

If some one wants to charge you more than twice what the existing technology is then you can be sure it is a scam.

if some one makes claims of hearsay and will not show proof the device will work - then it is a scam.

There are test for eveything and anththing. I have tested distilled water by using it for 20 years and I am in VERY good health. It has passed every test and is used in many applications (medical, industry, chemical, etc…)

I do not sell any product so do not have a conflict of interest in my position. I state the facts and only the facts. I hope this will be of help to those who are feelling confused by all the lies being told about distilled water.

The bottom line - Distilled water is SAFE to drink and will NOT kill you. It is the only water you should ever drink. It would be wise to eat good food and take vitms and minerals and abstain from junk food and junk science.

I just want to be clear about your facts: your fact is that you have drank distilled water for 20 years and are in very good health. That in fact is is a claim without proof (just pointing that out is all)

I’m not arguing with you, just pointing out that your fact is based on how you feel.

I too spent $1200 on a “alkaline water” machine and just the other day, removed it from storage and threw it out.

Distillers cost money as well by the way, as does purchasing distilled water from the local grocer or health food store.

Glad to have had you stop by the blog and I wish you well

You say that my very good health is a claim and not proof. When My younger sister died three years ago from cancer at
47 I went to the doctor and had him do a complete check up on me. He had every test known done on my blood and they all came back perfect. He said every test was right on where it should be. He was surprized that some one my age would have such perfect numbers (I am retired)
So this is not how I feel - it was a medical report of my current physical condition. Not every member of my family drinks distilled water so this is a very good indicator that the
differece is the water.

My cousin is five years older than me and had to have cataracts remove when he was 52 years old as he was completely blind. He only drinks tap water that is very hard water and said he will never drink distilled water. When I had my eyes checked there is NO cataract problem at all. I reseached the net and found that calcium deposits are the main cause of the cataract and that can come from the water. Proof is when you can link one thing to another. There are different levels of proof some are stronger than others depening on how strong the link is. I think there is a strong enough link to show that the distilled water is what has helped keep my body clean and healthy.
When I was younger I could lift 750 pounds on a weight machine with my legs and I was only 150 pounds.
I do not smoke, drink booze, over eat junk food, and I drink distilled water.

I would like to point out the difference between a cost and an investment. You say a distiller costs money but you can’t recover a cost. A distiller is an investment because your are saving money from medical procedures like eye surgery, pills, pain, lost work, etc… It saves you money not cost
you money. I got one from sears for 200 dollars. That is a lot less than the 1200 for you alkaline machine or the other over priced devices - (many that do not work). The 800 or 1200 dollars these people scam from you is not the biggest problem. The damage done to your health from not getting the distilled water to clean your system is where the major damage is done. I know how forceful some of the sellers of those things are because one of my sister sells one that you clamp on your main line (does not work). They do it for the money.
If they lost 5000 dollars on every unit they sold they would quit selling them fast. These products come from other countries where the money is sent, but the local people who sell them are left holding the bag when the law suits start. People are told that it does not matter how bad the water is this device will treat the water so it safe (without a filter). If any of the people from Canada who died from drinking the bad water had one of these on their line someone could be in for wrongful death law suit. If they lose a 3 million dollar suite like this I doubt they will be selling them the next day.

Thank you for allowing me to vent.
(I say: it is better to vent with a pen than with lead)

Your health could be so perfect / good / whatever adjective you want to use because of any number of things OTHER than distilled water or in combination of those things AND distilled water. I’m just commenting on the wording is all. It’s not proof for distilled water.

ie: you could have a perfect diet, perfect genetics, perfect stress reduction techniques (ie: meditation), perfect whole food supplementation working for you and a couple of things against you and without knowing which one is responsible, not be able to prove any one for or against, that’s all.

I certainly don’t want to start an argument, because that’s not the point.

I too have written extensively about investments in our health and yes a distiller is an investment in our health. I too invest $300+ monthly on Sunrider whole foods and have for over 17 years now. It’s an investment in myself.

what I was getting at was the words you used AGAINST the water machines because they cost money, but not about the investment in the distilled water. It seemed to be an unbalanced statement is all. I was just pointing out that.

Owen, I love your passion. You seem like one of the good guys.

I’m on your side sir!

I guess it was just me being “technical” with the wording in your statement and shouldn’t have brought it up.

Be well my friend. I welcome you and your thoughts around the blog.

btw, my buddy bought invested over $2000 in a water distiller for his house. It’s a HUGE machine that stores gallons and gallons in his basement and then pumps it up to his tap in his kitchen. I bought mine for $200 used, but no longer distill my own water. I did the math on the energy involved and it was costing me more money in electricity that I could save by just purchasing the distilled water from my local store.

Do you have specific questions after reading them?

We are preparing a book and multimedia mini-course on the forthcoming www.AlkalineMyth.com - do you want to be a study participant and answer questions in return for a free pre-release copy of the $199 book and videos?

Let me know, by replying to:

I’m being approached every week about someone wanting to get me into Kangen and I hate to burst their bubble about it. It’s a tough call to tell them the truth, but it has to be done.

do you have a link for the cluster water / vitalizer system?
