Water: It Also Flows in Paradise

.....The six ways we can absorb toxins from water is through drinking it, cooking with it, buying canned products that contain it, and bathing, showering and swimming in it. If our primary source of water is from the tap, we are absorbing toxins with it. All water from public works systems contains contaminants such as parasites, viruses, herbicides, pesticides, cyanides, asbestos, and industrial chemicals.

Even residues from pesticides used decades ago may still be present in the water system today. This polluted water is then treated with chlorine, fluoride, carbon, lime, phosphates, soda, ash, and aluminum sulfate to "purify" it, and sent through zinc and cadmium pipe joints and copper pipes to our homes.

It is ironic that we use additional chemicals to combat the chemicals and pollutants that are already in the water. It is like adding insult to injury.

To be precise, forty-seven "insults" in all are added to our water to disinfect, fluoridate, soften, coagulate, chlorinate, oxidate, condition, neutralize, and control the odor and color of it. Among these chemicals are chlorine and fluoride. Chlorine, which can either be absorbed or ingested, leeches potassium and sodium from the body causing an electrolyte depletion.

The salts used to fluoridate our nation's water supply, sodium fluoride and florosamicic acid, are industrial by-products that are not found in nature. They are so toxic that they are used in rat poison. We can get all the natural fluorine we need from fish, bones, quince and raw goats milk.

The only way we can remove fluorine from our water is to use reverse osmosis - distillation or activated aluminium filtration. Many people drink distilled water because it doesn't contain fluoride; however, it can also be detrimental to the health if used long- term because it too leeches minerals from the body. Nevertheless, experts agree that water lacking some of its original nutrients is still superior to water laden with chemicals and toxins......
