Hello Mr. Asenbaum,
I watched your video, "The Water Drinking Revolution," and I have two important questions about it.
Dr. Walker, who eventually lived to be 116 years old, drank distilled water throughout his life and also recommends doing so in his books.
But you speak as if it's not wise to drink such water; could you explain that in more detail?
Can distilled water be used to prepare this hydrogen booster? This is important to me because our drinking water has significant deficiencies and I want to drink it as clean as possible.
I am very grateful for any honest opinion!
Thank you very much
RobertP.
Answer from Karl Heinz Asenbaum
Dear Mr. Plank,
I am vehemently opposed to drinking distilled or reverse osmosis water "undiluted," that is, without remineralization, because vital natural minerals are then no longer present. www.montes.at You can see a bioavailability study from the University of Vienna which shows that the vital minerals calcium and magnesium in mineral-rich water have a far higher bioavailability of 92% than other mineral-rich foods, even more than cow's milk!
The one you mentioned, who has grown very old Dr. Walker He did drink distilled water for many years, but not exclusively! He met a large part of his water requirements by drinking fruit juices.which easily compensated for the missing minerals in the distilled water. One liter of orange juice, for example, contains 2000 mg of potassium, 110 mg of calcium, and 110 mg of magnesium, which, being dissolved as ions in an aqueous solution, are also very bioavailable. So, if you want to use distilled water to dilute fruit juices, there's nothing wrong with that. The industry also uses a similar type of water (RO water) to produce fruit juice from fruit juice concentrates. However, fruit juices carry risks due to their high acidity (acidosis) and fructose content (diabetes), so it was certainly beneficial for Dr. Walker to drink plenty of distilled water with them. However, I suspect he would have lived even longer if he had drunk slightly alkaline water instead of the slightly acidic distilled water.
The background to your question is this: you are afraid of your tap water because you believe it contains pollutants that you cannot remove. normal, mineral-neutral water filters I don't trust it. That might be sensible in rare cases in Europe. In my opinion, however, a reverse osmosis system is perfectly adequate in these cases, because distillation systems, due to their high energy consumption, äußerst They have a problematic ecological footprint and offer only a relatively negligible advantage over reverse osmosis systems. To put it bluntly: Why would anyone want to make schnapps out of water? Water is not a drug, but a solvent we need.
If your water truly doesn't become clean using professional water filters with activated carbon granules, activated carbon block filters, ceramic filters, hollow fiber membranes, KDF, Aqualen, etc., I'm quite willing, in this rare case, to be persuaded to use a reverse osmosis system, for example, if uranium, cesium, or other dangerous heavy metals are present in excess. Near Chernobyl, I certainly wouldn't drink any tap water! Instead, I would use a proper reverse osmosis system like this one:https://www.aquacentrum.de/shop/osmoveda-umkehrosmose-heisswasser-kein-wasseranschluss/ Why is this one so highly recommended? Because its hot water functions allow you to immediately prepare mineral-rich drinks such as tea, coffee, or broth with absolutely clean water.
But distillation is really unnecessary. It's like trying to bleach not just your whites, but all your laundry when you wash it.
Back to Dr. Walker, who claims he has only ever drunk distilled water his entire life. The man is simply lying. And so are those who rely on his statements. He has drunk many juices, which are extremely rich in minerals. And we ourselves obtain a large portion of our water needs through eating water-rich foods. So, of course, distilled or reverse osmosis water does not harm us in the short term, as has been shown in animal studies.
But if we think long-term, it's actually harmful. Because If we can't get minerals from our water, we have to eat them. The lower the mineral content of our food, or the lower it has become due to overbreeding, the more we need to eat. This is because some minerals are essential, meaning indispensable.calcium, Potassium, Magnesium, sodium, chlorine, phosphorus, and sulfur can be obtained in high concentrations from natural water in ionic and therefore highly bioavailable form. These elements are not found in distilled or reverse osmosis water.
Also some essential trace elements such as Kobalt Iron, iodine, copper, manganese, molybdenum, selenium, silicon, and zinc are found in natural water.
What we actually need to eat outside of water are essential amino acids, because they are not found in drinking water.Isoleucine Lysine,Methionine Phenylalanine, Threonine TryptophanValin, Arginine (essential for children), histidine (essential for children). And the same applies to the essential fatty acids linoleic acid and linolenic acid.
Conclusion: If we drink distilled water, we inevitably need to eat more than if we drink mineral-rich water. The risk associated with "eating more" is widely known as obesity.
