24 Doctors With The Courage To Tell The Truth About Distilled Water


24 Doctors with the courage to tell the truth about Distilled Water … :


Distilled water is THE water which runs through ALL water-based life forms.

I’ve put together the specific writings of twenty-four doctors who all support the benefits of Distilled Water. The first few pages of Dr.
Hanish’s book (Doctor #24) at the end of this, are really quite stunning. If, after reading this, you think you would like to try distilled water, I
HIGHLY suggest you follow his instructions. EVERYONE we know, who has followed his instructions, has had results of a MOST SUCCESSFUL nature.


Everybody needs to switch their drinking water to distilled water.

A half gallon a day MINIMUM, most preferably a gallon, ESPECIALLY during the recovery period.

Here is what Dr. Allen Banik says…

“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”

Here is what Dr. Paul Bragg says…

“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.”

“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”

*** DOCTOR #3 ***
Here is what Dr. James Balch says…

“There is only one water, and 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.

*** DOCTOR #4 ***
Here is what Dr. C.W. DeLacy Evans says…

“Used as a drink, distilled water is absorbed directly into the blood, the solvent properties of which it increases to such an extent that it will keep in solution salts already existing in the blood, prevent their undue deposit in various organs and structures, favor their elimination by the various excreta, and tend to remove these earthy compounds which have already accumulated in the body . . . There is no doubt as to the high value of distilled water used freely as a retarder of the ossifying conditions which appear to constitute the condition of old age.” —C.W.
DeLacy Evans, M.D., in his book, How To Prolong Life

*** DOCTOR #5 ***
Here is what Dr. Teofilio de la Torre says…

“Instead of drinking the hard water of springs or the chlorinated water of the cities, it will be to our advantage to drink distilled water . . . to prevent calcification of the body.”

*** DOCTOR #6 ***
Here is what Dr. Charles McFerrin says…

“Distilled water is ’empty’ water – a hungry water, a water capable of absorbing body poisons. You have had the experience of trying to use an old post office blotter on the desk. Everybody had used it and it is so full of ink that it will not suck up any more. So it is with a ‘full’ water, a water full of chlorine, aluminum, etc. Such water does not have the capacity of absorbing body impurities.” —Dr. Charles McFerrin, writing in the July 1955 issue of Nature’s Path

*** DOCTOR #7 ***
Here is what Dr. Alexander Graham Bell says…

Dr. Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of the telephone, recognized the health value of distilled water, and claimed that its daily use prolonged his life. Afflicted and bed-ridden with sciatica, Dr. Bell could find no relief for the pain. The attack came just as he was investigating the deposit of salts in the human system. A well-known scientist had written a book in which he said that old age came from such deposits, and that the ills of advanced years were due to the lack of their elimination. He believed that when such deposits went to the joints, man had rheumatism. When they went to the kidneys, he had kidney trouble and stones in the urinary organs; and when they lodged in the arteries, they produced what is called hardening of the arteries. In the same way when such deposits coated the nerves, they caused sciatica. Dr. Bell wrote: “I knew that distilled water was pure. I thought that if I drank plenty of it, I could get rid of some of the salts that were covering my sciatic nerves. I tried drinking it and it worked like a charm. I have kept up my drinking of distilled water and I attribute my almost perfect health largely to it.”
—Dr. Alexander Graham Bell

*** DOCTOR #8 ***
Here is what Dr. Robert W. Flinchbaught says…

“The evidence that distilled water acts as a solvent within the body, dissolving the inorganic mineral deposits, is very important. A growing body of evidence suggests that distilled water dissolves and removes these disease – causing minerals and flushes out the hundreds of dangerous chemicals that have been taken into the body as well. Distilled water is not only free from pollutants, but it apparently helps remove them as well from the cells of the body, thus purifying the body so that it can function as it should. —Dr. Robert W. Flinchbaught, from “Pure Water is Life”

*** DOCTOR #9 ***
Here is what Dr. David C. Kennedy says…

“Even tap water invariably contains a variety of poisons such as chlorine, chloramine, asbestos, pesticides, fluoride, copper, mercury, and lead. The best way to remove all these contaminants is by distilling.” —David C. Kennedy, D.D.S.:

*** DOCTOR #10 ***
Here is what Dr. Robert D. Willix, Jr. says…

“If you decide on bottled water, make sure it’s distilled, (however), in the long run you’ll save money if you clean your water at home. It’s more convenient than hauling gallon jugs from the store. The ‘gold standard’ for purifying your water is a system that distills your water and filters it. You have the comfort of knowing there is no chlorine, fluoride, bacteria, viruses, pesticides, or lead. You get nothing but H2O.” —Robert D. Willix, Jr., M.D.:’Maximum Health’

*** DOCTOR #11 ***
Here is what Dr. John Yiamoyuiannis says…

“The home distiller is the best method and also the best way to get distilled water. It is the only reliable home water purification for taking fluoride out of the water.” — John Yiamoyuiannis, Ph.D.:’Fluoride: The Aging Factor’

*** DOCTOR #12 ***
Here is what Dr. Charles Mayo says…

“Water hardness (inorganic minerals in solution) 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 its 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 of the Mayo Clinic

*** DOCTOR #13 ***
Here is what Dr. Peter A. Lodewick says…

“The only type of water that seems to be fit for consumption is distilled water, which is water that is absolutely free of any minerals or chemicals. Distilled water is made pure by first being heated to the point of vaporization, so that all of the ‘impurities’ are left behind. Then, the water vapor is condensed. The process results in water that is in its purest form. Distillation is the single most effective method of water purification.” —Peter A.
Lodewick, M.D.:’A Diabetic Doctor Looks at Diabetes’

*** DOCTOR #14 ***
Here is what Dr. Norman W. Walker says…

People who say that Distilled Water leaches minerals out of the body are, therefore, correct only in this respect. This is only 50% of the truth. It is virtually impossible for Distilled Water to separate minerals, which have become an integral part of the cells and tissues of the body. Distilled water collects ONLY the minerals which remain in the body, minerals discarded from natural water AND from the cells, the minerals which the natural water originally collected from its contact with the earth and the rocks. Such minerals, having been rejected by the cells of the body are of no constructive value. On the contrary, they are debris which distilled water is capable of picking up and eliminating from the system. —Dr. Norman W. Walker, from “Water Can Undermine Your Health”

*** DOCTOR #15 ***
Here is what Dr. John Christopher says…

“Water is so valuable to the entire system of the human body that it is wise to use only the BEST. Use pure steam distilled water for health and well being.” —Dr. John Christopher, from “Regenerative Diet”

*** DOCTOR #16 ***
Here is what Dr. Paul Conn says…

“When one drinks impure, dirty water, the body acts as a filter, trapping a percentage of the solids suspended in the water. A filter eventually becomes clogged and useless – fit only to be thrown away. The human body might well face the same fate.

But the basic point – that only distilled water avoids mineral buildups in the body – is an inarguable one. The deposits, which build up in a teakettle from repeated use, are traces of minerals left behind as the water evaporates. Distilled water leaves no such traces – in a teakettle or in the human body. It is true that in most hospitals distilled water is used for newborn infants; distilled water is prescribed for heart patients in many cardiac wards. And it is true that kidney stones and other mineral-like buildups in the body are much more common in the areas where the drinking water has high levels in inorganic minerals – and distilled water has none of those at all.

It is without doubt the best water available to man- and the only truly pure water available in our waste-laden society.” —Dr. Paul Conn, from “Not A Drop To Drink”

“The only water likely to be clean is distilled water.” —Dr. Michael Colgan, from “The New Nutrition: Medicine For The Millenium”

*** DOCTOR #18 ***
Here is what Dr. Raymond H. Bishop, Jr. says…

“Distilled water is safe to drink and should have no adverse effects on your health. Distillation merely removes most of the dissolved materials, which are found in all natural waters.” —Raymond H. Bishop, Jr. M.D. Major General, Commander – Medical Corps. Department of the Army, U.S.

Here is what Frank N. Hepburn, USDA, says…

“There is nothing about distilled water that would make it harmful for the body. It may be helpful to remember that distilled water is the only water
available for crews of Naval vessels at sea.” —Frank N. Hepburn, Chief, Nutrient Data Research Branch, United States Department of Agriculture, Consumer Nutrition Division

Here is what Louis Pasteur says…

“We drink 90 percent of our illnesses.” —Louis Pasteur

Here is what Nick Pavlica says…

“I have been drinking distilled water since 1981, almost half of my life, and given the choice, would not drink any other type of water. I recommend
distilled water to all my friends and relatives and would not do so if I didn’t think it is one of the very healthiest things a person can do. After a full body scan, the doctor told me that I have the cleanest arteries of anyone he has examined of my age. And I have never had a broken bone in my body. (Contrary to quack assertions that calcium and other minerals are “leached” from the body!)” —Nick Pavlica, Director, H2o Labs, Ltd.

“Distilled water is the purest form available. Distilled water helps to excrete excessive heavy metals from the body.” —Vicki Glassburn, from “Who Killed Candida?” 1991

Here is what author Jonathan King says…

“If properly maintained, distillers provide a constant supply of high-quality water. Filters and reverse osmosis units, on the other hand, are at their best when first installed, and efficiency inveritably declines with use.” —Jonathon King, author of “Troubled Water”

Here is what Dr. Clifford C. Dennison says…

“There’s no absolute medical proof that drinking DISTILLED WATER will cure arthritis, heart disease, high blood pressure, hardening of the arteries, or any other dozens of infirmities that humans suffer. There’s no absolute proof that drinking DISTILLED WATER will remove kidney and gall stones, reduce cataracts or cure emphysema. But, there are hundreds of case histories of people who have enjoyed success in alleviating or overcoming these health problems when they began drinking DISTILLED WATER exclusively.” —Dr. Clifford C. Dennison, Ed. D., an Associate Professor at Lee College in Cleveland, Tennessee, and a lifelong water researcher and expert

*** DOCTOR #21 ***
Here is what Dr. Ron Kennedy says…

“Now as to the argument that distilled water leaches out minerals. This is true, and this is exactly what we want it to do. The minerals it leaches out are of the unusable, ionic form and we want these to leave the body rather than be deposited and cause disease. Distilled water does not leach out significant amounts of biologically available minerals because these are quickly taken up by the body on an as needed basis. If they are present in excess then they are filtered through the kidneys and this is exactly what needs to happen with all things which are in excess in the circulation. Distilled water cleanses the body through promoting healthy kidney function.” —Ron Kennedy, M.D.

*** DOCTOR #22 ***
For those that follow Dr. Andrew Weil, who has been drinking distilled water for years, here is a quote of his:

“You can try drinking bottled distilled water if you like. It’s water that has been turned into steam so its impurities are left behind. The steam is then condensed to make pure water. The process of distillation kills and removes virtually all bacteria, viruses, heavy metals, and other organic and inorganic contaminants. Once distilled, the water is as pure as water can reasonably be. While it’s true that distillation removes minerals as it eliminates various other contaminants from water, I don’t feel this is a problem. We get our minerals from food, not water.

As far as acidity goes, distilled water is close to a neutral pH and has no effect on the body’s acid/base balance. Distilled water is safe to drink, and the kind of water I use myself.”

*** DOCTOR #23 ***
Here is Dr. Handley’s article about distilled water…

The Importance Of Distilled Water In Aging

by Dr. Chester Handley

As our body begins to age, there are several things that happen. Cell don’t produce as well, the body doesn’t digest as well, the body does not absorb as well and the body does not eliminate as well. And areas of the body begin to feel pain and have sore spots that we never had before. One
of the major causes of pain is the over consumption of grain in older people. It is softer, easier to eat and appears to be more easily digested. Well the true reality is that it is no benefit to the aging body at all and leaves an acidic residue that gets deposited in the joints which is the number one reason for arthritic pain.

Many years ago when I was doing research on distilled water, I discovered that contrary to all the stories out there, distilled water does not take a single thing out of the body that the body needs. It never takes anything out of a cell. Everything that is cellularly locked remains within the body, but it is the greatest tool in the world for cleaning out the bloodstream, which is the only function water really has…to wash out, cleanse and purify the bloodstream. Remember that the bloodstream is primarily an organ of transport. People think of it as a liquid rather than an organ, but it is an organ. It transports nutrients, oxygen and red blood cells throughout the body and carries away waste products and carbon dioxide.

Distilled water has been evaporated into a vapor, split apart into a molecule of hydrogen and oxygen, turning them into a gas that rises up in to the atmosphere, then cooled back down and condensed back in to water. The same process happens in a distillery when it distills water. It heats up the water in to a gas, all the impurities are left behind, all the waste products are left behind, then it is condensed and turned back into pure water and becomes the ultimate pure water because of one very important factor that is not present in any other water…it is molecularly unstable. It means that when it goes in your bloodstream it breaks apart easier and latches on to debris, waste products and unwanted materials that are floating  round in your bloodstream.

It is also one of the best ways there is for reducing blood pressure. I made up two charts years ago when I was doing my studies on body detoxification with distilled water, from 1865 to 1965. In 1865, diseases that ranked in the high 30’s and low 40’s became the first four killers in
1965…and they were all cardiovascular. I then made another chart from 1865 to 1965 to show the reduction in the use of drinking rainwater. The
two charts were virtually biometrically opposite. As people quit drinking rainwater, cardiovascular diseases went up. When the blood vascular system is clean you have less headaches, you have less pain, you have more oxygen and nutrients available for the body and more healing capacity for the body.

It has been almost twenty years ago now that a man came down to my office that had arthritis so bad he could hardly get out of a straight backed
chair. His pain was excruciating. We put him on the detoxification program, took him off of all grain in his diet, instructed him to eat only fruit, vegetables, protein and meat products, and put him on distilled water every half hour while he was awake. It is hard to believe a month later this same man was out working in his garden having the time of his life.

I cannot emphasize enough the importance of drinking distilled water for cleansing the blood stream, for reducing arthritic pain and lowering blood
pressure. It has also been known to reduce cholesterol and triglycerides. In fact, the only effect on the body is health.

There are rules of thumb on how much water to drink. The rule of thumb on a normal day is one half your body weight in ounces per day. If you are
sweating and exerting yourself you should drink more, not less. We have a tendency to grab pop, coffee, Kool-Aid and juices, but we need to get back to the habit of grabbing distilled water.

To give you an example of what this means, if you are a man and you weigh 200 pounds, you should be drinking a minimum of 100 ounces of  istilled water throughout the day. There is an interesting side note for people that like to study. Job, which is the oldest book of the bible, I believe
it is in the 36th chapter, said God took up the water, distilled it, and poured it out abundantly on man. The logical argument is who knows better
what we need than the creator, and he gave us distilled water.

For those that follow the Bible…

The water God chooses to pour abundantly upon man is distilled water.

JOB 36:27

“For he draws up the drops of water,

he distills his mist in the rain which the skies pour down,

and drop upon man abundantly.”

*** DOCTOR #24!!! ***
And finally, I would like to share with you the first 4 pages of a book from the early part of the last century written by Dr. Hanish,
“The Distilled Water Cure” by Otoman Hanish, M.D., D.D.

printed 1946 by The British Mazdaznan Association

“Often times the blood becomes tainted and needs to be purified. There is only one way of washing the blood and that is by means of dead water, undiluted water, distilled water which contains no life organism, chemicals or similar substances. It has to be dead water, i.e. water condensed from steam. Distilled water, by virtue of its weight: effects a one pound pressure upon the minerals and acids which clog the bloodstream; it
presses them right through the system. Even in a short time it eliminates appreciable quantities of impurities from the blood. There is no hard and fast rule as to how to take The Cure; it may be taken quickly or slowly, hot or cold. It is left entirely to the individual to decide according to temperament and physical condition. The main thing is to obtain the necessary pressure and to ensure that two cups are always taken at one time – a total of seven pints per day. This is quite easy of accomplishment if the quantity is systematically regulated as follows:

1. On awakening take two cups.
2. Another two cups shortly before breakfast.
3. Two cups in the middle of the morning.
4. Two more 20 to 30 minutes before the mid-day meal.
5. Two cups in the middle of the afternoon.
6. Another two cups 20 to 30 minutes before dinner.
7. The last two cups in the evening shortly before retiring.

page 2

If desired, two more portions may be taken one, two hours after lunch, and the other two hours after dinner. As regards to eating and drinking, it is a matter of individual choice. Nothing is forbidden and there is no need for fasting nor privation. One may eat and drink according to individual needs. One eats only moderately after having taken two cups of distilled water. The principle of The Cure must be maintained, i.e., seven times per day, two cups of water at one time – making sure to take two cups shortly before each meal.
It will soon be discovered that even at breakfast time one eats very moderately after having taken two cups of distilled water. After three days one observes a loss of taste for this and that and quite different desires assert themselves for dishes which one may have previously disliked. Day by day one eats less: soon only half and then only a third of what one normally takes. After three days the complexion becomes clearer and more rosy and a feeling of lightness is experienced. After two to three weeks, the eyes become clearer and more penetrating; one is able to think more clearly and one becomes less easily irritated. After three weeks, the thinner ones become a little stouter and the stouter ones become a little thinner. In case of
sufferings of an acute nature, The Cure need last but three weeks; in other cases five weeks. If The Cure be resorted to for from 5 to 12 weeks
in succession, 65 percent of all ailments become eliminated, and the other 35 percent will be eliminated if one continues afterward with a correct diet. By the time one has almost completed The Cure, one has become so accustomed to the drinking of distilled water that one likes

page 3

and takes regularly a couple of cups before each evening meal. The adoption of this habit wards off all disease. The body is already composed of 85 percent water, and by adding thereto two cups of water regularly each evening, all acids and crystals are eliminated there from in a natural way and the bloodstream is not burdened thereby.
Three highly important effects are assured through The Water Cure:

1. The blood becomes washed and made free of all foreign substances.

2. It ejects a proper working of the individual organs and thereby that of the whole organism.

3. It provides a youthful freshness in a measure that often youth does not possess as the whole glandular system becomes normalized, thereby
increasing the brain power, and life becomes more joyous.

Always remember, therefore, to resort at interval to The Water Cure. If feeling unwell, start again for a few days or even weeks. Take The Water Cure as a serious treatment for five to seven weeks every three, five, seven, nine years, as it purifies the whole organism, and, becoming thus renewed, continuous progress is assured. Distilled water is therefore of the greatest value for the individual as well as humanity at large. After a few weeks on The Cure, one learns to choose the food that nature requires to build up the system; one begins

page 4

to live anew. Even after three days the purification and renovation of the bloodstream is noticeable. One does not necessarily gain or lose weight by taking The Cure. The purer the blood, the more normal the cells of the body become. If one gains too much weight one simplifies the diet by discarding butter and oils. The great advantage of The Water Cure is that one need ask no questions; one just takes it, everything comes lay itself so long as one resorts thereto. As a result of The Water Cure, one begins to think for oneself instead of asking questions, one becomes a thinking human being. The Cure is so simple one cannot make a mistake, not even a mistake in diet. The wonderful feature of it is that no efforts are required and yet the maximum of benefit is obtained. Moreover, one is sure of the expected result, whether one resorts to it for a weak stomach, indigestion, dyspepsia, constipation or a liver which does not function normally, or because the kidneys are affected; for the lungs, nerves, heart trouble, change of life or for growths.

All ailments have to give way to Distilled Water, and in the ordinary way nothing needs to be added thereto.”

How to start acquiring Distilled Water…

You can buy it in plastic gallon jugs at first. Wal-mart tends to sell the best tasting. NOT because they make it the best, but because they move thru the most of it, and it spends the least amount of time picking up plastic flavor. Small drug stores tend to taste the worst, because it spends the most time sitting around. Do not worry that you are contaminating yourself with plastic, yes you will TASTE the plastic because it is running over your taste buds, BUT REMEMBER, that plastic is magnetically bonded with that water and it will pass out thru your excretory channels. ( of which, urine is not included ) I have numerous friends who have been on ‘plastic-jug distilled water’ for months and years and they are experiencing COMPLETE ‘fountain of youth’ type de-aging effects. It will take you a long time to realize just how powerful this water is. I have been studying it for years and it stills floors me everyday that such a calm, clear, unassuming liquid can work stupendous feats at blinding speed.

Once you decide you like it, you can buy a small counter-top distiller that is good for one or two people for about $200. They sell a cheaper one for $100, but it empties into a plastic catch, whereas the $200 model comes with a glass catch. They sell bigger, more convenient family sized ones for about $500. A carbon pre-filter is a good idea for most kinds of waters, but ESPECIALLY important for any municipal tap waters as they contain HIGH amounts of VOC’s or Volatile Organic Compounds which have a lower boiling point than water and actually make it through the distillation process. So, the carbon filter catches the VOC’s before they ever get to the distiller. The bigger $500 units come with a carbon pre-filter so that is great, but for anybody who gets the smaller $200 units which don’t come with a carbon pre-filter, they need to filter it first with a brita, or a refrigerator door water dispenser, anything which uses basic carbon filtering. There are some waters which don’t have any VOC’s in them and you don’t need any carbon pre-filtering, just taste a batch and see. If the water tastes like nasty plastic even after it has been distilled, then you are tasting VOC’s and need to do the pre-filtering.

You can find them all over the internet like at waterdistiller.com, amazon.com, h2olabs.com and so on…

Next, I will list the Detox symptoms. It is VERY important that you do not confuse these with the idea that the distilled water is making you ill.

FOOTNOTE!!! One more very important thing to tell you…

Detox Symptoms


The body DOES NOT make mistakes…

When you read the different doctors describe how distilled water melts garbage inside of you, make sure you understand that this translates into
real world events. As in, garbage WILL start to pour out of you! It has to come out! But better out than in, right??? So this means, you WILL have detox symptoms. And everybody is different as to how they detox, where they detox, and what they detox. It all depends on what YOU have
ingested and inhaled your whole life and what routes your body chooses to eject the garbage.

It could be…


But these are all GOOD things, be thankful that garbage is leaving.

And know that is only temporary. You can dial in the speed too. If it’s too much detox for you, back off on the solvent. Then come back to it again when you feel stronger.

Remember, when they say this is the greatest solvent known to the human body, THEY’RE NOT KIDDING!!!

Your friend,


Simple Facts…

Most people have no idea there exists a MASSIVE effort to suppress the knowledge of Distilled Water. If you Google ‘distilled water’ you find at about the third hit down a ridiculously titled article called, “Early Death comes from drinking Distilled Water.” It is full of nothing but pure lies and obfuscation.

Drinking a gallon of Distilled Water every day will bring your body to its perfect state.

Distilled Water is magnetically attracted to all waste, debris, and inorganic substances inside you, which are then ejected. This is the ONLY type of water which will 100% perform this act, because it is the only water which is 100% free of garbage. Most people think spring water is awesome because it has “minerals” in it, but they generally never know that those are ALL inorganic minerals. Spring water, river water, lake water, well water, artesian water and so on, have been sitting in and flowing over rocks and sand and have picked up these dead minerals. These inorganic minerals will give you arthritis, cataracts, heart disease and so on, basically slowly turn you into stone over the years. You ONLY want organic minerals which come from live food. The inorganic calcium in spring water will get stuck in between your bones and give you arthritis, whereas the organic calcium in a live orange will REPAIR a spot in your bones. A human is ONLY made of, and can ONLY use organic minerals. There is zero position and/or zero use for inorganic minerals in humans.

Ask any mechanic what you should do when your car battery is weak. He or she will tell you to open up the little row of caps and to pour in DISTILLED WATER. Why? Because it is the ONLY water which is a 100% PURE BATH OF NEGATIVELY CHARGED MOLECULES. When your battery is weak it is in a positively charged ACIDIC state, a wasted state, a spent state. When you pour in the negatively charged distilled water it returns the battery to an ALKALINE, powerful, ready-to-go state. What’s the point of this fact? It’s to help you understand HOW distilled water is attracted to waste, debris, and inorganic minerals. These things ALL have a POSITIVE CHARGE and the NEGATIVE CHARGE of distilled water MAGNETICALLY sticks to them and rips them out of your body. Remember, OPPOSITES ATTRACT!

You don’t want any of those OLD types of water, you only want NEW water which has not had time to pick up garbage yet. Where do I get this NEW water, you ask? Whenever Mother Nature produces new water she ONLY uses the process of distillation. She doesn’t use reverse osmosis, uv filtration, carbon filters, ionizing machines, or alkalizing machines. NO, she ONLY uses the process of distillation. These new waters can be found in all precipitation (rain, mist, snow, dew and fog,) all live fruit and vegetable juices, and urine.

Machine-made distilled water is copying Mother Nature and is the next closest thing to any of these naturally made new waters. NO OTHER ARTIFICIALLY MADE WATER COMES ANYWHERE CLOSE TO THE PURITY OF MACHINE-MADE DISTILLED WATER. In fact, this is SO true that the WHO (world health org.) tells people NOT to drink distilled water. The WHO is part of the UN. The UN has a stated goal of reducing the worlds population by 80%. So, if you want to help the UN reduce the worlds population, by all means, STAY AWAY FROM DISTILLED WATER!!!

Dear Water Based Creatures…

Urine will not only make your plants grow like crazy, it will supercharge YOU right out of the stratosphere. There’s a book called, “Liquid Gold” which has all the info regarding usage on plants. Basic thing, for plants, is to cut it, 90% w…ater and 10% urine. Every plant goes wild on it. Greener than ever, bigger than ever. Pour it at the roots and/or mist the foliage.

As for you and your body/mind, it is the cleaner you always wished for. A liquid drano for human pipes. A chemtrail destroyer ( I don’t care how small the nanobots think they’ve made themselves ). A 3rd eye de-calcifier (very nice). A constant water source when there is no water. Its how one would spend 40 days and 40 nights in the desert.

Look up “Urine Therapy” its all right there, waiting to be discovered. The bad taste is only from eating bad cooked food. People who eat just raw fruit have coconut water flavored urine as clear as rain water and it is a pleasure to drink. Believe it or not. On average, somebody with a terrible diet can achieve rainwater clear urine within 5-7 days of water fasting or fruit juice fasting, which is much easier AND a lot of fun!

Everywhere the Bible mentions, “The Water of Life” or “Rivers of Living Water,” they are talking about none other than urine.

You know the amniotic fluid you all floated in for 9 months? It’s urine. For the first 3 months its mainly your Moms urine, and then for the last 6 months its mainly yours. Why do you think they say, “the water broke?” Where do you think all of your pee is going while you are in there? There’s no umbilical cord attached to your genitals is there? No, that cord is connected to your intestines which is where ALL waste goes. Remember how you breath like a fish while in the womb? Guess what you are breathing?? Yes, urine. Your lungs would not have formed without it, your entire body would not have formed without it.


This explains why you see cherubs and babies peeing into water fountains all over the planet. This is nothing less than a pictogram for the “fountain of youth.”

They want you to think it’s “lost” so you’ll believe it can only be found out buried deep in the woods somewhere. When all along it’s your own fountain, your genitals. There’s not just one fountain of youth on the planet, there’s 7 BILLION and counting! Everybody comes with their very own built-in water distiller! Do your really think the almighty creator would put you here without the complete ability to take care of yourselves?? No, of course not.

I’ll tell you why it’s called the “fountain of youth” as well. When people fast for 30 days on just urine, not only do they vaporize WHATEVER illness they had, but also by the time they are done with the fast they lose 20-30 years in appearance!!! In the more than 20 books available on the subject, there are over 1000 case histories of what happens to people when they do this, and over and over again, without fail, this is EXACTLY what happens to people who dip their cup into the… “fountain of youth.”

Speaking of dipping your cup! Nobody needs to look any further for “THE HOLY GRAIL.” There is no such thing as “THE” holy grail. Let me explain… Do you remember why anybody would like to find the holy grail? Well, it is said that long life and full health will come to anyone who drinks from the holy grail. Those are the EXACT benefits of drinking urine!!! The hidden joke is that it’s not the cup that’s magical, it’s whats in the cup! You can never find “THE” holy grail because ANY cup or vessel or grail can become “A” holy grail if you start dipping it into the “FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH!!!!!” So there is no such singular item as “THE” holy grail.

So you see, my precious human creatures,

Urine is the ULTIMATE human growth medium. Whatever you touch it to, it restores it to its original genetic DNA instructions. If you put it in your eyes, it becomes your eyes. If you put it on a cut on your skin, it becomes your skin. It’s living, liquid tissue!

Also, for those interested in ascension, the constant looping of YOUR water creates a circle of spinning energy which triggers your MERKABA to fire up. That’s a nice bonus too, huh?

I hope you research this. This is delivered this with pure sincerity.

106 thoughts on “24 Doctors With The Courage To Tell The Truth About Distilled Water”

  1. I would suggest taking the advice above very skeptically.

    The problem with quoting opinions from doctors, or anyone else for that matter, is that if you search long enough you can find opinions to support practically any position you want to promote – why should those 24 individuals be believed any more than 24 doctors I could find who thought distilled water was harmful – or another 24 who believed (like I do) that in most cases it doesn’t really matter, unless you happen to be selling something.

    The point is, opinions without scientific research to support those opinions are not particularly reliable – may be true – might not – there is just no way to tell by reading someone’s opinion.

    For me, there is a wide range of believability in the information presented by the 24 quoted doctors – some of the information is relevant and accurate – most is not. Those that discuss the fact that distilled water is not harmful and that distillation is the most effective (albeit most expensive and energy dependent) method to purify water are accurate. Those that talk about the harm done by inorganic (vs. organic) minerals to the body are very suspect.

    I still have not found any reliable evidence to support either the opinion that distilled water is healthier or that it is more harmful than ‘regular’ non-distilled water – in most circumstances and for most people, http://www.cyber-nook.com/water/distilledwater.htm

    One of the sentences in the article is completely contradictory,
    “Whenever Mother Nature produces new water she ONLY uses the process of distillation. … These new waters can be found in all precipitation (rain, mist, snow, dew and fog,) all live fruit and vegetable juices, and urine.”

    The idea that so called ‘new water’ (aka distilled water) is in fruit juice, vegetable juice and urine makes no sense whatever. As soon as anything is added to water, whether it is carbon dioxide from the air, arsenic from the ground, plastic from a bottle, or salts and nitrates from the blood the water is no longer distilled or pure – it is contaminated.

  2. @Randy

    Interesting reply in your statement:


    Did you notice that each quote has references and some published items showing a scientific approach to their findings. I would suggest that rather than dismiss the quotes. Better to verify as the writer has provided ref’s.

  3. Randy the only evidence you will ever believe is your own. Stop looking for some sudo-science to believe in. The only person who will ever be able to convince you of the truth of distilled water is YOU. Get a counter top distiller and drink only distilled water for the next 5 years and see if you find any difference. Make sure you get one that does not have a metal tank. The water will taste like metal. Get the food grade plastic or glass container. Always put the water in a glass container in the frig to keep it from getting contaminated. I have been drinking distilled water for 50 years and am in very good health. This proves that the people who claim one glass of distilled water can kill you are telling you lies so they can sell you bottled water for $4.00 a bottle.

  4. I agree with all of this not just because some scientists wrote it but I feel like the proof is in the pudding. You have to try it for yourself. I buy distilled water in gallon jugs and try to drink a gallon a day but usually only get through half. But even that amount immediately moves my bowels. I’ve had problems with constipation all my life. Sometimes just a little bit (going but straining) and sometimes severe (not going for 3 or 4 days). If I get my distilled water in the morning and continue drinking it throughout the day, ill have 2-3 EASY bowel movements. I’m not sure if it’s stimulating my liver or intestines but it sure works.

  5. I have been drinking a half gallon of distilled water per day for 7 plus yrs. Before that my knees were so arthritic, I had to wear braces, when I played tournament softball. I had an MR I on both knees, and was told by the sports doctor, he would scrape both meniscus for $7000.00. Instead I started drinking 80 ozs of distilled water daily, and in two and a half months I was pain free. Much cheaper than $7000.00.

    • @Barry,

      Thanks for sharing.

      And a knee surgery is no guarantee that you’ll be pain-free afterwards.

      Also your arteriosclerosis (if you’ve had arthritis then you also had arteriosclerosis) is after 7 plus years of drinking distilled water GONE.

      I bet your brain is now sharper than those legendary samurai swords and your energy levels are through the roof, especially if you also maintain a healthy diet and exercise.

      And am I right in assuming that more and more people are telling you that you look younger than your age?


      Infinite Unknown

  6. I use distilled water almost regularly but two issues always bother me :

    1) Has man been drinking distilled water for the past thousands of years ?

    2) Water from my distiller is normally acidic, PH = 6

    • @C Spadavecchia,

      I hope I will be able to answer your questions tomorrow.


      1) Nature uses a low temperature evaporation process to distill its water.

      Nature’s way to produce distilled water is superior to a water distiller, because we still have to additionally carbon filter our water to remove the VOCs.

      Rain water is nature’s distilled water. Water coming from glaciers is distilled water.

      So yes, we as humans (and all other lifeforms on the planet) have been drinking distilled water all of the time.

      When distilled water comes in contact with rocks and soil it dissolves all those inorganic minerals that are good for plants (but not for us).

      Plants turn those inorganic minerals into organic minerals (the only useful form for our bodies) and we need these as building blocks for all functions of our body.

      Only through organic minerals can our body maintain its health and homeostasis.

      Inorganic minerals are toxic garbage that needs to be expelled from the body. Himalayan salt is therefor toxic garbage.

      Usually all salts dissolved in our drinking water are inorganic and the body uses up a lot of its vital energy to get rid of them.

      Let’s say your drinking water has 3 gramm of inorganic matter per liter. You know that drinking water is important and you drink 3 liters per day.

      That is 9g per day, 3285g per year and over a lifetime of just 75 years your intake of inorganic matter is 246375g.

      Expelling all these inorganic minerals is a lot of hard work for the body, especially if seen over a lifetime … and that does not include the water you’ve used to cook your food!

      2)Yes, distilled water is acidic.

      Lemon juice is also acidic, but it has a strong alkalizing effect on the body!

      So what we really need to look at is how our food and water is getting metabolized by the body instead of judging it by it’s original PH.

      Distilled water may have an acidic PH, but it is so negatively charged that it attracts all positively charged inorganic garbage, because opposites attract.

      And yes, distilled water leaches minerals from the body, but only the toxic posively charged inorganic garbage.

      So distilled water will slowly turn your body more and more alkaline.

      You can measure the PH of your saliva & urine for several days and then compare again after several weeks, months and years.

      You will be amazed how fast you will move up the scale (especially with a (raw) vegan diet).

      If you drink distilled water and maintain a healthy diet this will become so obvious.

      Your excess fat will melt like snow, gray hair may even turn back into its natural hair color or it will never get gray in the first place.

      The car battery analogy used in the article is also a good way to descibe what will happen inside your body if you drink distilled water.

      You too are an ‘electric engine’.

      Drinking distilled water and maintaining a healthy diet will give your body the ability to get rid of all toxic garbage and you will experience a lot of healing reactions, that are more often than not misinterpreted, but once you’ve got rid of the worst part of the toxic load, that you’ve been carrying around with you for so long, you will feel lighter and stronger than ever before and your energy levels will just go off the charts. But this will take some time.

      (As a side note: Cooking turns a lot of organic minerals into their inorganic form, also enzymes and many other vital nutrients are getting destroyed in the process. Cooked spinach is toxic, especially for kids, because the healthy organic oxalic acid, has turned into toxic inorganic oxalic acid that causes kidney stones etc. The body always gives all he has got to keep us healthy, but he could do a much greater job if we would support its work, instead of obstructing it. We are the only animal that cooks its food and we are also the only animal that suffers from diseases of civilization. We feed our pets cooked food and they too develop the same problems as we do. Indigenous people have been studied and closely examined all around the planet and many of them are still in a great health condition at 90 years of age. I am not telling anybody what to do. What I can tell you is, that coming out of the other side of the detoxification process myself, I feel like I have been born again and my energy level still keeps rising.
      My diet = raw vegan + honey – salt – soy products)

  7. Hmm Cherry picked quotes from dubious “Doctors” many of whom may not be “medical doctors” at all, some very very old documents and a lot of advertising for urine therapy. Very dubious psuedo science stuff there.

    Distilled water is only as good as the water you started with. Any contaminant in the water that vaporizes at a lower temperature than the water, such as volatile organic compounds, will be condensed and actually concentrated in the finished distilled water. So don’t think that all distilled water safe unless it has been tested first.

    • @IanTC,

      … which is why I advise to use a carbon filter before distilling…

      … to get rid of the VOCs!

      But you’ve obviously missed that information.

      You wrote:

      “Very dubious psuedo science stuff there.”

      If you get yourself some books on distilled water, then you’ll find out that there is nothing dubious about it and that it is not pseudo-science.

      On urine therapy:

      Ask yourself why you don’t know and haven’t been told about all the research that has been done on the most extensively scientifically researched natural substance in medicine in human history?

      Yes, urine is the most extensively scientifically researched natural substance in medicine!

      Recommended book on urine therapy @Amazon.com:

      Your Own Perfect Medicine by Martha Christy (Citing lots of scientific studies!)

      And you all have done urine therapy at the beginning of your life:

      Amniotic fluid:

      In basic terms, amniotic fluid is urine passed by the foetus in the pregnant uterus.

      The fluid is important because it protects the foetus against physical trauma, allows foetal lungs to develop normally, controls the temperature in the womb, and allows space for foetal movement and growth.

      Dr Blott said: “Amniotic fluid will not be produced if the baby is not growing.”

      So you all have already done – successfully – urine therapy for months!

      Here is another good reason to practice urine therapy:

      Your urine contains for example …

      Vitamin B12: 0,03 mg/day!!!
      Vitamin B6: 100 mg/day!!!
      Folic acid: 4mg/day!!!

      … and hundreds of other important substances.

  8. ive just had my distiller delivered,while i was reading this article as it happens.there are some obvious truths,ie removing the gunk before ingesting the liquid can only be beneficial,but then all the religious mumbo jumbo immediately sets off my nutter alert alarm bells. and almost nullifies the reasonable content.

  9. its the inner eye business and psychic abilities that will turn off a lot of people, when really you dont need to go there,just stick to the facts mam. likewise the raw veggie aspect which you also champion,all well and good but once again another subject for another time. incidentally where do you stand on grass fed butter and the k2 content?i know thats not the topic in hand,but you started it.

  10. the best way to know the truth is to look at the age a doctor is past away.
    for example:
    DR. Norman Walker, who endorses distilled water past away around 106 years old.
    DR. Paavo O. Airola, who thinks distilled water is bad, died at 70 years old – this is the doctor who is referenced by Dr Mercola and Dr Zoltan P. Rona in their findings that distilled water will kill you.

    Just follow the doctors’ life span to know of his/her findings can be trusted and you will KNOW THE TRUTH!

    • @Brent,

      We, who know about the benefits of distilled water, are all aware of this article.

      Change the title from “Early Death Comes From Drinking Distilled Water”

      to “Early Death Comes From Drinking Pure Rain Water”

      or to “Early Death Comes From Drinking Pure Glacier Water”,

      … because pure rain water, which admittedly doesn’t exist anymore thanks to pollution and pure glacier water are nature’s distilled waters …

      … and you’ll see that this article, that is so wrong in and of itself, does not need to be refuted after taking a closer look at only just the headline.

      If I were Cicero I would now say, that I do not want to go into what is wrong with this article and then hold a 4 hour detailed lecture on what is wrong with this article.

      Yet, luckily for you I am not Cicero, nor do I have the time, nor is this article worthy of spending so much time on it.

      In my opinion the article is pure disinformation.

      A lot of what is wrong with this article has been already explained in other comments.

      The article states:

      “Distilled water is an active absorber and when it comes into contact with air, it absorbs carbon dioxide, making it acidic. The more distilled water a person drinks, the higher the body acidity becomes.”

      What happens to a car battery that is too acidic to function when you give it some distilled water? Well, it comes back to life from its acidic state.

      Distilled water has a slightly acidic PH, but reacts alkaline in the body and like lemon juice it is acidic, but has a strong alkalizing effect on the body!


      So distilled water really makes the body more alkaline. And if you combine drinking distilled water with a healthy diet, then an acidic body will move to an alkaline, mineral rich and healthy state at top speed.

      And if you want to compare your body to an engine, then distilled water is like rocket fuel.

      And yes, distilled water is so pure that it absorbs everything that is inorganic from the environment.

      It is THE purest form of water and so it attracts impurities, which is exactly why we fill it ASAP into glas bottles (and not into plastic bottles).

      It will dissolve every inorganic impurity in your body, but not the body itself, which is made from organic minerals.

      The article states:

      “The most toxic commercial beverages that people consume (i.e. cola beverages and other soft drinks) are made from distilled water. Studies have consistently shown that heavy consumers of soft drinks (with or without sugar) spill huge amounts of calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals into the urine.”

      Somehow the article forgot to mention that the acidity of soft drinks comes from the huge amount of phosphoric acid that is thrown into them.

      In another article …


      … Dr. Mercola himself states that:

      1. Any contaminant in the water that vaporizes at a lower temperature than the water, such as volatile organic compounds, such as disinfection byproducts that are thousands of times as toxic as chlorine, will be condensed and actually concentrated in the finished distilled water. So what you end up with is water that contains even more dangerous contaminants than what you started with.
      2. Because the water is acidic and demineralized, it will pull contaminants out of whatever container you put it in. Many distillers on the market are made of metal, which will actually add certain toxic metals like nickel back into the water. And if you use a distiller with a plastic bottle, you have a number of plastic chemicals to contend with – many of which we now know are extremely toxic.

      Mercola seems to really try hard to make all these negative effects of distilled water up and in my opinion fails miserably.

      We always prefilter our water to remove the VOCs before distillation and after distillation there is another bag of activated charcoal that takes care of what is left, which is by the way pretty much nothing, because the TDS meter ALWAYS shows 0 PPM, even without filtration after distillation.

      And even if we would not prefilter, which is highly recommended of course, how could it be possible that we are ending up with a more concentrated toxic end-product than where we started?

      There is not much evaporation happening to justify that statement, so how will the distillation process possibly manifest VOCs out of thin air?

      Again, so even if we would not prefilter, the distilled water, which is stated in the article to be “an active absorber”, will bind all those VOCs to it, making it very hard for the body to absorb them, which is why many people actually use, which I do NOT recommend, Wal-Mart’s distilled water to heal themselves. And it worked for many, many people.

      However, I want to make it very clear that I do not recommend you to do this.

      Got to go.

  11. Many of these doctors and sources are very old sources. Often times we don’t know what we don’t know. We used to think margarine was better for us than butter, then we learned better but you can still find plenty of quotes saying it is better for us. Id like to see some more modern research than from the 90’s… or 50’s for that matter.

    Secondly, when the water evaporates from the ocean, that’s really a form of distillation, it evaporates and leaves all the ‘bad stuff’ behind, so according to this it will pick up CO2 and come down at a lower pH. Seems to me that ‘neutral’ water is the un natural water.

    Id also like to point out, even though you don’t say it but, saying distilled water leeches minerals out of the body, while it may be factually correct, is very misleading stating it that way. Take a glass of distilled water, dissolve a teaspoon of salt in it, it goes right in doesn’t it? Now stir in a teaspoon of baking soda, or sugar. It goes into solution too don’t it? That water was NOT pure. Point being, distilled water is no more a solvent than any other water really. It’s not going to suck minerals out of your body any worse than regular water will.

    Finally, this Dr. Mercola, what a quack. No matter what side of the issue he is on, his information is just plain badly misleading.

    Drink up.

  12. Simple question. I have a distiller. Is it a good idea to give it to my cats instead of spring water? I have a cat that is allergic to chlorine.

    • Tina,

      In my experience it is an excellent idea to give distilled water to your cats.

      Animals naturally seem to love distilled water.

      It will help to keep them vital and ‘young’.

      Infinite Unknown

  13. What kind of salt do you use? Dr. Mercola sells Himalayan Cooking salt but in the readings, it says it is not good. What about mineral maintenance? Do our bodies need minerals and how to get them if not through water, salt or supplements????

  14. Great article! I love it and am so thankful to have found it! Already passed it on to two people.
    Therre’s a comment earlier about third eye mumbo jumbo, ect….I say: Speak your truth!! Beacuse that is exactly what convinced me! It’s a wholistic look at things that makes sense to someone like me….
    So one may be turned off…another is turned on

  15. I am going to buy one water distiller.
    Here is my question.
    It is ok. to boil the water before you put it in the distiller in order to speed up the process or is a bad idea?
    Will the distiller get damaged?
    Thank you.

    • @Alain,

      I am no distiller expert in the technical sense, but I will give you my opinion and I am not guaranteeing that this is 100% correct, but it works for me just fine.

      I would bring most of the water close to the boiling point before I put it into the distiller.

      I would also put some water into the distiller and once it is heated up, I would fill the distiller up with the boiling water.

      My additional advice :

      Always keep your distiller clean! Don’t allow sediment on the bottom.

      How to keep it clean:

      You can put some water covering the bottom (1-2 cm) of the distiller and then add some apple vinegar, wait until the sediment on the bottom has totally dissolved and then fill it up to the top with hot water, so that the sediment on the sides is also getting dissolved.

      If you keep the bottom clean your distiller will last much longer.

      You can also unplug your distiller shortly before all the water has vaporized, thereby there will be not so much sediment building up on the bottom.

      And you can fill it up again.

  16. I was talking to a non-believer of distilled water.
    He said…….in places where the water is not clean like India or the rest of the poor countries people never get sick by drinking that water because they build up the immunity generation after generation.
    Now if you start drinking pure water your body will never build up any immunity so the day that you will drink non distilled water you will get sick straight away.
    What you think?

  17. I don’t understand your problem with good quality salt. How about Dead-sea salts? There is a reason why it heals so much things and why Israel was so important for the jews,because the Dead-sea is there! I also read about an ancient simple jewish method they intentionally kept secret that was about drinking distilled water and in the meantime eating things with lots of Dead-sea salt and it was said to cure all types of cancer. Do you know anything about that or would you steer clear of Dead-sea salt as well?

  18. Hi!

    With all the response, what does one do?

    3 post infavor of distilled water and 2 more post against it!

    Everyone knows we can’t drink floride, etc. without damage to our bodies over time.

    So… What ya gonna do?

  19. This is all total bullshit, these so called Doctors don’t even have a basic understanding of chemistry.


    All minerals are inorganic that’s what fucking defines a mineral.

  20. I’ve been drinking distilled water due to an incorrect kidney stone diagnosis. After three months of drinking only distilled water, nothing else except a daily glass of milk and a glass of cranberry juice, i began to experience severe abdominal pains. So i have discontinued the distilled water. i will report back in two weeks with my findings.

  21. Thank you, Andrew so much for all your videos on the internet. I would really appreciate it if I could talk to you or if you would write me. I started March 15th, with drinking my water and eating less and less. The problem I am having is that I have lost 25 lbs and I was thin to begin with. I would not eat one day, then eat again for a week, until I got up to not eating 4 days. Now I am trying to go a month on only my own water and rainwater or bottled distilled water. I am on day 2 of only my water and rainwater. But I am very concerned about losing a lot more weight if I go the full 30 days. I had heard you mention fruit and vegetable juice from my juice is the same as my water. But I also had heard you say that I need to only drink my own water and distilled water for 30 days to completely heal. I also heard a woman who would fast on her water and distilled water 4 days and then eat for 22, then do the only water fast. Is it okay to juice vegetable or fruit twice a day for the 30 days? I really appreciate your you tube videos. Thank you. Susan in FL

      Susan, please eat!

      You have to eat enough to not lose weight.

      If you have lost a lot of weight and were not overweight, you should regain that weight.

      Your body needs food, like a car needs fuel.

      I am a certified (which means basically nothing, but for some people it does) Tai Chi and Qi Gong teacher. I’ve studied acupuncture in China. I know a thing or two about Daoist meditation and Yoga.

      I’ve worked in a clinic, where we cured cancer, Lyme, neurodermatitis, etc.

      As a side note:

      I had several of those Jasmuheen breatharians as patients in the clinic and they all were getting sick from it, though still looking astonishingly well from the outside after many months.

      I showed them how their blood looks like under a dark field microscope on a computer screen … and I told them to EAT!

      There are many good therapies, like the Gerson Therapy, out there that cure cancer and other diseases.

      My diet is raw vegan. (And I am not saying anybody should do this.)

      I drink juices (vegetables, fruits with lots of green stuff like spinach, wheat grass, barley grass etc.) every day.

      I make green smoothies.

      I eat salads with lots of sprouts (alfalfa, lentils, mungbeans, chick peas, green peas, fenugreek, sunflower etc. etc. etc.).

      I sprout all kinds of grains, quinoa, buckwheat (soak them 12h, let them sprout for at least another 12h) and blend the sprouts with tomatoes and bell pepper in my Vitamix.

      I add onions, garlic, lettuce leaves, celery, etc. to it and this gives you energy for many, many hours.

      I also make raw vegan bread with my Sedona dehydrator.

      I use lots of herbs (weeds), berries (great body ‘cleaners’) and nuts in my diet.

      I find
      that this diet works great if combined with distilled water and shivambu.

      And when young people ask you what you are doing to stay this fit and ask you how old you are and then stand there (with an open mouth!) thinking and after a pause they tell you: “But, but … you don’t have grey hair!” … then you must be doing something right.

      I even got asked recently: “If I eat what you are eating, will I also get such a body?”

      Got to post some news now.

  22. I’m very curious about distilled water and have looking into John Ellis and his machine. My wife and I tried a free sample of it and I couldn’t believe the change a few drops of his water did to regular bottled water. We did not drink very much only a gallon between the two of us. So I was not expecting health results. I only wanted to see if it would change regular water which it did. Regular bottled water leaves a dry after taste where as his was silky smooth. I plan on buying a bigger bottle so we can drink it for a longer time and make a decision for our selves. Please chin in and tell me your thoughts about this machine or if you have ever even heard of it! Thanks!

    • To Chris,

      I do not have any personal experience with John Ellis’ machine.

      Here is an ‘article’ (from 2006) on the machine …

      John E.’Energized Water Machine (CureZone):

      “If you are smart enough to make it work, be prepared for the best water on the planet, AND I AM NOT KIDDING ABOUT THIS. If you can’t get the hang of it, be prepared to waste your money.”

      … which sounds at first like a rather positive info, but for me, personally, this article gives me a lot of good points to not to even think about touching it.

      I am happy with using a carbon filter to remove especially the VOC’s (and some of the other stuff that will later be removed by the distiller) and then using my Megahome distiller to get all the garbage out.

      And my TDS meter reads always 0 ppm. Try that on reverse osmosis or any other kind of spring or tap water!

      For me distilled water is pure 15,000 year-old glacier water or pure rain water, which is no longer available on this planet.

      As a side note: One of the purest bottled waters you can buy is Lauretana (still version) with the TDS meter showing just 7 ppm.


  23. Hi, I was excited once started reading about the benefits of drinking distilled water until I came across an article written by a gentleman called Dr Mercola. He sounded convincing. Here I post the link to the article. Please help me understand if there are any flaws in his article regarding the disadvantages of drinking distilled water.

    Looking forward hearing from you,


    Sincerely, Gus

    • @Gus,

      Scan through the comments and see my comment I made “@Brent” about his question in regards to the article ‘Early Death Comes From Drinking Distilled Water’ from Merocla’s website.

      I hope that helps.

      Best regards,



      by Dr. Allen E. Banik

      The amazing discovery I am about to unfold to you had its beginning some 40 years ago. Just why I did not receive the impact then I will never know. A few short months ago the truth finally revealed itself to me. At first I found it difficult be comprehend, but little by little the facts began to blend until I saw it all in its entirety, and The Choice Was Clear.

      Only One Possible Cause For All Aging Diseases?
      Imagine one common possible cause for nearly all diseases! Can it be that arthritis, kidney stones, gall stones, arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), enlarged hearts, emphysema, obesity, constipation, cataracts, glaucoma, diabetes, all stem from one common cause? Unbelievable! But possibly very true!

      Can This Be True?
      We all use it every day-from the baby’s first cry to the old man’s last breath. Water! The one element you need the most and suspect the least. If this shocks you, do not be surprised, as millions of Americans are still unaware of this “aging process,” and indulge in it freely. Multitudes suffer from all the above diseases, and unknowingly contribute to this cause daily. Somehow the shots, pills, vitamin capsules and balanced diets add only brief spurts to wellbeing.

      The arthritis can get a little worse, the arteries a little harder, the gall stones and kidney stones a little larger, the eyes a little dimmer, the hearing more complex, sugar starts to appear in the urine, digestion slows down, constipation calls for stronger laxatives-and waist lines get a little larger. It’s a never-ending cycle of feeling just a little worse than the day before.

      There Is Hope Ahead
      Let me cheer you up-there is good news in store for youhappy years are now ahead of youfar into your nineties-even more. Your stiff joints may begin to loosen, arteries become more elastic, blood pressures can become more normal, heart action firmer and more powerful. Your lungs can expand with fresh air-kidney and gall stones can gradually dissolve, never to appear again. That lost appetite can also reappear, and those aggravating stomach painssomehow can vanish.

      Dr. Brown Landone And Captain Diamond Proved It
      Let me quote a few authenticated case histories-just to prove what has already taken place in the lives of two famous individuals. One was an associate named Dr. Brown Landone who lived to the splendid age of 98. His patient, a Captain Diamond, lived vigorously to the fantastic age of 120 years.

      Dr. Landone had a heart condition at the age of 17. Today it would have meant a heart transplant or other dangerous surgery. His doctor allotted him three months to live at most. His heart chambers and valves were coated with mineral deposits much like his mother’s teakettle. Dr. Landone was determined to live. After devising a special treatment (I will go into details later), he returned for his second heart examination two years later. His doctor pronounced his heart perfect. All aglow with life, young Landone enrolled in a medical college and received the degree of Doctor of Neurology. He practiced this profession for 50 years, then turned his talents to writing. His average working day was from 18 to 20 hours. At the age of 98, he could have been mistaken for a man of 50!

      The Amazing Age of Captain Diamond
      During Dr. Landone’s years in practice, he met Captain Diamond, who was bed-ridden with arthritis and hardening of his arteries at the age of 70.

      Dr. Landone suggested his treatment. Five years later he was teaching classes in physical culture. At the age of 103 he walked from Sacramento to New York. At the age of 110 he danced an night with a 16-year-old. He died at the fantastic age of 120!

      The Secret of Longevity
      ‘Water” is what I will be writing about, from the very first page to the last word. I will attempt to show facts about water that will startle you. And from now on, until the day you draw your last breath, you will remember what I have written on these pages.

      AR Water Is Not The Same
      There are at least nine different kinds of water. Some kinds can harden your arteries, form gall stones and kidney stones, bring on early senility, and all the diseases I mentioned earlier. Other kinds of water works in reverse. What one type of water carries into the system, the other carries out. Let me classify these nine kinds of water. They are hard water, raw water, boiled water, soft water, rain water, snow water, filtered water, de-ionized water and distilled water. All are kinds of water-but remember this: only one of these nine kinds of water is good for you. Let me describe them briefly.

      Hard water is water containing excessive lime salts, that is, carbonates and sulfates of calcium and magnesium. Sodium, iron, copper, silicon, nitrates, chlorides, viruses, bacteria, chemicals, and many other harmful inorganic minerals and chemicals may also be present. Most all the water we drink comes from public water systems or private wells. These are hard waters. Any water that has run through, or over, ground is hard water to some degree. The longer it filters through the soil, the harder it gets and the more harmful it may become for you.

      Some cities take water from rivers and lakes or mountain reservoirs. They call it soft water. But soft water from such sources is soft only in comparison to water which is harder. I recall that each year the earth’s rivers carry to the sea five billion tons of dissolved minerals and other unnumbered millions of tons of carbon compounds and factory pollutants. “And ocean life is on the decrease,” according to Jacques Cousteau.

      A False Type Of Water
      There are also the hard waters which are called “mineral waters”- that is, waters from certain mineral springs-well known for their medicinal effects. Practically all kinds of “bottled” water is hard water.

      The reason mineral waters have this so-called medicinal effect is because the body tries to throw off the excess minerals which invade it as intruding foreign deposits. Actually, a form of dysentery exists, as the organism tries to eliminate and expel this unusual condition. To subsist on this type of water could be detrimental.

      Raw water is water which has not been treated in any way. It may be hard or soft-as hard as lime water, or as soft as rain water. Raw water contains millions of viruses and bacteria, and is densely inhabited in every drop. Chemicals dumped into our rivers may cause cancer, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.

      True, properly chlorinated water kills most germs and viruses, but it can also kill the cells in our bodies. The only safe rule to follow individually is to distil drinking water, which will eliminate both chlorine and pathogenic organisms.

      Boiled Water Is Not The Answer
      Boiled water is advised by some health authorities. Boiling removes none of the inorganic minerals, although it does kill the bacteria in raw water if boiled at least 20 minutes.

      But the dead bodies of these germs are carried into the system when the boiled water is used. Such dead materials furnish a fertilized soil for rapid and lusty propagation of germs already in the body. By drinking boiled water one may avoid live disease germs, but still takes on bacterial soil for the growth of other bacteria.

      While raw water is an aquarium filled with deadly microorganisms, boiled water is a graveyard of dead germs.

      The Impurity Of Rain Water
      Rain water, which has been distilled by the heat of the sun, should contain no mineral matter and no germs. But when it falls from the clouds as rain, it falls through air filled with bacteria, dust, smoke, chemicals, mud and minerals. By the time it reaches the earth as rain water it is so saturated with decaying matter, dirt and chemicals that its color becomes a yellowish-white.

      If rain water is allowed to stand it becomes filthy because of the rotting animal matter in it. I discuss it only because some “nature faddists” are so ignorant that they advise the use of rain water on the basis that it is “natural.”

      Snow Is Unclean
      Snow water is melted snow. It, too, picks up minerals, chemicals and radioactive fallout such as Strontium 90. Snow is frozen rain. Freezing does not destroy bacteria. Snow looks white and clean but it contains as many germs, minerals and pollutants as rain water. Remember the dirt left from melting snow in the spring? How the dirt of what has melted forms on top of the snow which is not yet melted! Try melting the cleanest snow, then note the filth in the water. Each snowflake contains some form of air pollution.

      Filtered Water Can Be Dangerous
      Filtered water is water which has passed through a very fine strainer, activated carbon or some other mechanical barrier. The use of filtered water is still rather popular. Some people think that water which has passed through a filter is purified. They believe that the filter keeps the waste substances and disease germs of the water in the filter. While it is true that chlorine, some suspended substances and many synthetic chemicals are removed in the filter by filtering, there is no filter made which can prevent bacteria or viruses from passing through its fine meshes. Each pore of the finest filter is large enough for millions of germs to pass through, even those containing silver!

      Moreover, decaying matter collects on the bottom of every filter. This forms an excellent breeding ground for bacteria. After a filter has been used for a few days, the filtered water often contains more disease germs than the water which is put into the filter. Bacteria are multiplied by the millions by the collected wastes at the base of some filters, and washed through with filtered water, according to Dr. Brown Landone.

      De-ionized Water Can Cause Virus Infections
      Water processed by the de-ionized method effectively removes minerals, and compares to distilled water in this respect. However, it does become a breeding ground for bacteria, pyrogenic matter and viruses. The fault in this system lies in the resin beds which can become notorious breeding grounds. Therefore it is not wise to have this possibility exist in your drinking water.

      Furthermore, deionization does not remove synthetic chemicals such as herbicides, pesticides, insecticides or industrial solvents.

      The Miracle Of All Water-Distilled Water!
      Distilled water is water which has been turned into vapor, so that virtually all its impurities are left behind. Then, by condensing, it is turned back to “pure” water. Distillation is the single most effective method of water purification. It is God’s water for the human race. In a manner of speaking, distillation is nature’s way. The weather of the world is created in the tropics, where half the heat reaching the earth falls on land and water masses. Here heat energy is stored within water vapor through the process of evaporation, nature’s distillery. When the jet streams return ocean water to inland areas, they do so without sea salts and minerals, all of which have been left behind.

      Nowadays you will hear a lot about reverse osmosis. In this process, water is purified by forcing a portion of the raw water through a semi-permeable membrane. Reverse osmosis removes a high percentage of the dissolved solids as well as other contaminants, and when new the result often approaches the purity of distilled water. The degree of purity in any case varies widely, depending on the types and conditions of the equipment used, much as with filter equipment, and the effectiveness lessens with use. Sometimes drastically!

      Nature’s Natural Distilling Plant
      Distilling water turns it into vapor, and then through condensation, back again into pure water. Rising vapor cannot carry minerals and other dissolved solids-it will not carry disease germs, dead or alive. The secret is that the vapor rises between all the suspended particles and chemicals in the air. When this condensation occurs as falling rain, it picks up airborne pollutants! Not so in a vented distiller where most of them are eliminated.

      If pure distilled water is boiled in a teakettle, no calcium or minerals of any kind will collect to coat the inside of the kettle, even though you used the same kettle for ten years.

      The World’s Greatest Secret
      Distilled water then is water of the purest kind. It is odorless, colorless and tasteless. The divine purpose of water is to regulate temperature and to act as a solvent. In nature, water in evaporation is so fine that your eye cannot perceive it as it is drawn up into the clouds. Then it falls as rain, keeping the earth from being parched and burned.

      As a solvent, it dissolves rocks and soil. It figures in the transport of nutrients into plant life. In the human body, water fills similar functions. It regulates the temperature of the body by helping take off extra heat resulting from an intake of some 3,000 calories of food each day. Water keeps the body from burning up. It carries waste products from the body.

      The Greatest Function Of Distilled Water
      Distilled water acts as a solvent in the body. It dissolves food substances so they can be assimilated and taken into every cell. It dissolves inorganic mineral substances lodged in tissues of the body so that such substances can be eliminated in the process of purifying the body.

      Distilled water is the greatest solvent on earth-the only one that can be taken into the body without damage to the tissues. By its continued use, it is possible to dissolve inorganic minerals, acid crystals, and all the other waste products of the body without injuring tissues.

      Inorganic Mineral Deposits Must Be Removed
      For purification, distilled water is the solvent of choice. After mineral deposits are dissolved, gentle muscular exercise can force the dissolved poisons and wastes from the tissues into the blood so that blood can carry wastes to the excretory organs. Then, these organs can squeeze and pour the wastes out of the body.

      Remember that great scientists now not only admit but assert that all old age, and even deathunless by accident-is due to waste poisons not washed out of the body. The legendary Dr. Alexis Carrel made heart tissue apparently immortal by regularly washing away the wastes of the cells.

      Now you have learned about the nine different types of water. Let me repeat them again so you will never forget them: hard water, soft water, raw water, boiled water, rain water, snow water, filtered water, de-ionized water and distilled water. It is wise to remember these nine different types of water, but there is only one water you must always remember–distilled water! Dr. Paul Bragg, a life-time advocate of distilled water, lived to age 94, the span of life others only lecture about. He and others with track records say this is your lifeline to a long, happy, carefree span of life.

      Your Secret Enemy At Work
      Hard water then is your greatest enemy. It will destroy every fond hope you have by striking you down when you should be enjoying the fruits of your labors. Crippled joints, repeated surgeries, enlarged hearts, hardened arteries, gall stones, kidney stones, hearing problems, forgetful minds, all draw your activities from the great out-of-doors into creaking rocking chairs, and finally into bed-ridden old people’s homes. Why all this, when the body and mind was divinely designed to live forever! Dr. Alexis Carrel proved that! Captain Diamond lived a long merry life.

      Let us trace the course of hard water, the cause of our ills. It begins in the clouds. As it falls it collects minerals and poisonous chemicals. It is good water, except for what it picks up as it falls. When it reaches the ground it is divinely designed to do one thing, to pick up minerals. These inorganic minerals are wonderful, but only for plants. As the water picks up minerals, it distributes them evenly to plant life. Plants would never grow if these minerals were not supplied to their roots. Water then acts as a carrier of some minerals, namely anion nutrients. But alas, chemicals have now polluted our pure air. To clean the air, and make’ t fit to breathe, nature designed water to absorb these poisons.

      The Fault Lies In Inorganic Minerals
      We have never realized that these collected minerals from the air and in the ground are all inorganic minerals, which cannot be assimilated by the body unless they are chelated into organic molecules. The only minerals the body can utilize are the organic minerals. All the others are foreign minerals and must be disposed of or eliminated. Herein lies the problem we have never suspected as the possible cause of nearly all our aging diseases.

      Only Plants Need Inorganic Minerals
      Water, as a carrier of minerals, is fine for the plant. The plant in turn converts the inorganic to organic minerals. Now, our bodies can assimilate them. We have worked this process in reverse. We consume hard water saturated with calcium, magnesium, iron, copper, silicon, not realizing the body is unable to assimilate these nutrients efficiently. So nature tucks them in the joints as arthritis, in the intestinal walls as constipation, and along the arteries, causing them to harden. The kidneys and liver roll up the mineral deposits into little stones until they get too large for the ducts. Sometimes the “filters” of the kidneys become so mineral clogged that kidney transplants become necessary.

      Heart Conditions Can Result From Mineral Deposits
      Calcium deposits in the heart chambers and valves become so cemented into place with mineral deposits that heart surgery becomes necessary. Calcium deposits in the inner ear cause deafness. Skilled surgeons can now remove these deposits and in many cases restore hearing again. Should these deposits occur on the nerve, then total deafness can result. Since water is a carrier of inorganic minerals, harmful to the body functions, we now wisely remove virtually all trace minerals, chemicals and foreign particles through the process of distillation. Then, and only then, is water odorless, colorless, and tasteless and fit for consumption.

      I realize that there have been a few university study results that seem to deny these observations. And it may be possible-in rare circumstances-that water can contain organically complexed minerals that are assimilable. But these are rare situations, especially on our now polluted planet. I am also aware of a study that tends to correlate heart health with hard water areas. Full scrutiny of these data, however, poses more questions than it answers. Not answered at all is how people are to get unpolluted water in the first place.

      Pure Water Is Your Lifeline
      We have now learned that water is a carrier of inorganic minerals and toxic chemicals of organic synthesis. But through the process of distilling, the water is separated from virtually everything it carries, and is now pure water. As it enters the body, it again picks up mineral deposits accumulated in the joints, artery walls, or wherever such deposits occur, and begins to carry them out. Gall stones and kidney stones get smaller and smaller until they can safely pass through their ducts. Little by little arthritic pains become less as joints become more supple and movable. Arteries gradually become more elastic as blood pressures tend to become more normal. Gradually the outlook on life becomes a little more youthful-ambitions begin to return, while the squeaking rocking chair will give way to the web covered golf clubs.

      The startling fact to remember is that water attracts chiefly inorganic minerals. Organic minerals stay in the tissues, where they belong. This is a marvelous feat of Divine Reasoning. We were not born to die-we were born to live! This fact is easily proved. X-rays of the arteries will never show unless there are calcium deposits along the artery walls. Doesn’t this prove that we have mineral deposits even along swift moving blood channels?

      So hard water carries inert minerals into the body, and distilled water carries them out-it’s just as simple as that.

      There is then only one way you can purify your body and help to eliminate your chronic aging diseases and that is through the miracle of distilled water. A sludge-filled motor cannot operate smoothly unless the sludge is removed. Neither can a body be supple and ageless unless the joints, arteries, cells and nerve tracts are free of mineral deposits!

      The Appalling Truth
      The average person drinks about a gallon of water per day. Adding up the cups of coffee, tea, soft drinks, food and water, this gallon isn’t too much. Many men drink much more. At a gallon a day, the average person drinks up to 450 glasses of solids during a life span. These same solids are found in your humidifier, and in grandmother’s teakettle. Think of it-450 glasses of mineral solids in your system during a lifetime.

      What does the body do with these foreign materials? Nature does the very same thing you are now thinking. It tries to eliminate them. Do you recall the water spots on your windows from your water sprinkler? Ever try to remove them? It takes lots of vinegar and lots of rubbing to dissolve the deposits.

      This same reaction takes place in our bodies. It begins by putting a thin film along our intestinal walls. As soon as one film is laid, it attracts another film much easier, until it begins to build up and one of the first results is constipation, a plague to millions of people. Other deposits occur where blood flows the slowest, such as in the joints as arthritis and gout, along the arteries as hardening, in the veins as varicose, in the lungs as emphysema. It often coats the crystalline lens of the eyes with a fine film possibly resulting in cataracts.

      Glaucoma, the dreaded eye disease, can be another result of hard water. The tiny vessels film up with mineral deposits, which result in a build-up of pressure in the eye. There has never been a known cause for glaucoma. It might be the mineral deposits.

      In all my years of experience as a practicing optometrist-all my glaucoma patients drank water with extreme hardness. Distilled water as a possible preventative is still the best long-range program to follow.

      Heart Attacks Unknown
      Bantu African tribesmen are known to have the cleanest arteries, as well as the most elastic ones. They dig no wells, but catch rain water. Although this water is contaminated with bacteria, it is still almost free of minerals. The air and water pollutions, such as we have here, have not as yet affected them as much. This is a tremendous testimony for mineral-free water. Even the Europeans have far less cholesterol in their arteries than we do. They of course drink more wine than we do. Wine is comprised of distilled water. All water that passes through the roots of plants, converts the inorganic minerals to organic minerals, and distills the water at the same time. When juices contain minerals, they contain them as complexed organic molecules.

      The True Function Of Cholesterol
      Cholesterol is very important to our system. We get it in certain foods. The largest part originates in saturated fats, and this type can be harmful. The liver also manufactures its own cholesterol. Cholesterol is an oil or lubricant. It keeps the blood oily so the blood can flow easily through the arteries and veins. If it were not for cholesterol, the friction along our artery walls would soon wear them through. Nature is not so stupid. Everything is planned to work. But as inorganic mineral deposits adhere to the artery walls, cholesterol collects, narrowing the diameter of the arteries, risking possible occlusion. The Bantu Africans did not have this problem. The best time to avoid mineral deposits is at an early age. This reasoning is logical.

      My Personal Experience
      About forty years ago I felt the impact of the effects of drinking hard deep well water. I never gave it much thought until recently, perhaps, because I was not concerned about longevity then. This particular farmer had a most distressing health problem. I doubt that he weighed a hundred pounds. At intervals he would be unable to eat. If he did, he would belch, vomit and double up with pain. I thought each day would be his last. Finally his doctor advised him to leave his farm. Upon arriving in California, a kind neighbor suggested he drink distilled water with several small glasses of wine in between. A month later symptoms vanished and he could eat heartily. Today at the age of 88 he is still hale and hearty, an example of good health. It was the iron and magnesium in his well water that could have spelled an early death for him.

      I Followed The Same Path
      I still remember how I used to enjoy drinking ice cold water from his deep well, not realizing I was consuming three glasses of solids per year. That I too was a candidate for hardening of the arteries, arthritis, cataracts, gall stones, diabetes, obesity and other aging diseases never crossed my mind.

      I then recalled another experience during my teen-age years. I was born and reared in a small South Dakota town. In those days we had a town well to supply our drinking water. It was good cold hard water. (It did a wonderful job in corroding my mother’s teakettle.) The city electric plant was located near the well, but I noticed the plant manager drank distilled water. Being curious, I asked him why he drank that filthy water with such good tasting well water nearby. I can still feel the indignation that suddenly swelled up within him. He then softened his words by saying, “Some day when you grow up, you will find out.” Somehow this always bothered me. I knew he didn’t want to take the time to explain it to a mere kid. All the while I knew he had his reasons. It took me all these years to find out.

      The truth of drinking distilled water is not new. It is just that the public has never caught on. Today, many progressive doctors prescribe distilled water for their patients. All the kidney machines operate on the purest distilled water. It is now time to shake our sickly population out of their lethargy and languor. Thousands of American cities have potential health hazards in their drinking water and millions of farm wells should be condemned.

      The Dark Clouds Are Gathering
      Not only are we concerned about the minerals in our water, but we must also add the deadly nitrates and anthracenes which are seeping into our lakes, rivers and wells. The sewer wastes, and factory pollutions, detergents included, travel upstream underground at the rate of a half mile every six months.

      Our President Shocked
      Our presidents realize that through pollution we could destroy ourselves within the next few decades. Only through the backing of our government and by spending billions of dollars can we even begin to cope with this insurmountable problem.

      What our presidents don’t realize is that the first step to take is to purify our drinking water. According to government statistics, 10 parts per million of nitrates in water can kill a newborn baby. This is serious! To put filtering plants in our cities would take millions of dollars. The quickest solution to our drinking water problem would be to distill and bottle water for delivery to our homes.

      My Personal Problem Solved
      I investigated this product and found distilled water was selling for about fifty cents per gallon a few years ago. It is higher now. I then began a search for a home still. There were many on the market for our laboratories, but the plumbing and the upkeep would be expensive, as well as a cleaning problem. Also most stills were not made for drinking purposes.

      As luck would have it, I found an all-electric automatic still which just answered my purpose. The size of the still depends on the number of gallons needed. They are automatic and attractive in appearance, operate on pennies a day, and usually pay for themselves in nine months. It solved my immediate drinking problem for me and my family. I can now enjoy the purest water at its best!

      We Are Our Own Worst Enemies
      Now I can fight pollution. I can enter government programs raising my voice at town meetings against pollution in the soil, in the air and in the water. Today, the newborn baby doesn’t have a chance if there are nitrates in its first bottle of water. Blue babies are the results of nitrates. How many babies are crying today when the hidden cause lies in the water, food, and the air they consume. Any mother would sacrifice her life for that of her child-yet unknowingly, through pollution-she becomes a hazard to her own child.

      We Must Declare War On Pollution
      The fight to end pollution calls for the combined efforts of every man, woman and child. The farmer must watch the insecticides and the toxic chemicals in his soils. The manufacturer must bottle up his waste products and eliminate deadly monoxide gas. The air must be made free and clean of all harmful particles. Pollutants are serious today-very serious.

      Although I have solved my own problems so far as polluted and mineral saturated water is concerned, what about the millions of people in our cities who are unknowingly drinking water saturated with toxic chemicals and inorganic minerals? What about our rural people, who consider deep wells the epitome of good drinking water, not realizing the surgeries and aging diseases that may lie ahead?

      Water Is Never The Same
      True, our officials inspect and test our city water periodically, but water is never the same at all times, neither are wells in the same locations. Water can vary every day. Sometimes chemicals in water can become excessive; at other times negligible; but at all times the minerals will be there. We are looking for a mineral free and chemical-free water. This is the only kind of water our bodies demand. Only through the process of distillation can we achieve this purity.

      Water: A Carrier Of Disease
      I recall a Dr. T. R. Van Dellen, who made the statement that even foul water carries the germs of hepatitis. In one ten-year time frame while I practiced in my profession, there were 1,700 cases of hepatitis due to contaminated water. Life is too precious to victimize so many innocent people.

      House Beautiful magazine once made this statement: “You may still be able to drink water from your tap, but chances are it’s not as pure as it could-and should-be. The pollutants in much of our water include chemicals from industry, such as lethal chlorinates, obnoxious phenols and tannins, plus commercial chemical fertilizers, weed killers, poison pesticides washed into streams by runoff or put into the water by injudicious overspray.

      “Radioactive materials may one day be our most serious pollutant. Should atmospheric testing be resumed, this would be a menace. Also present is radioactive cesium-137 and even benzene-5, a known carcinogen.

      “What can we do about it? We can improve our own home water supply. Water from our municipal systems has been treated to kill contagion, but still may not be appetizing. It comes from a sewage-polluted river or lake, it may be cloudy. It may be so hard that soap won’t lather, but instead forms curds that puts a dirty ring around our bathtubs and turns our white clothes gray. If our water comes from a well, it may have all these faults and more. If you have a well, you may be floating on a sea of sewage.

      “Now the day is coming [for many it is already here] when we, too, must face up to the question of whether we want to drink our water as it runs from the tap. Stopgap measures could correct some of its evils. But only some. The real answer lies in our rivers, our lakes and in our soil-and in what we do to protect them against befoulment. If we do nothing, a scourge of major proportion may be our legacy.” So wrote David X. Manners.

      This will give you some idea of how serious our water problem is! To clean it will take years. The answer lies in what we do now for our own protection. La Vista, Nebraska, had a severe water problem midway during my practicing career. The tap water collected in jars was rust colored and murky. Mrs. Carol Petersen, a local, said: “We had a lot of other neighbors who wanted to come here this morning, but they couldn’t because they had to stay home with their children who had diarrhea from drinking the water.”

      Since water is a carrier of minerals and chemicals, let me list some of them found in our water:

      Chlorine, Copper, Sodium, Zinc, Magnesium, Lead, Sulphur, Selenium, Calcium, Cesium, Potassium, Uranium, Bromin, Molybdenum, Carbon, Thorium, Strontium, Cerium, Boron, Silver, Silicon, Vanadium, Fluorine, Lanthanum, Nitrogen, Yttrium, Aluminum, Nicke,l Rubidium, Scandium, Lithium, Mercury, Phosphorus, Gold, Barium, Radium, Iodine, Cadmium, Arsenic, Chrome, Iron, Cobalt, Manganese, Tin

      Our bodies need many of the above-mentioned elements, but only in their organic state. They must first pass through the roots of our plants before our bodies can assimilate them. Herein lies the big error. Nature has a tremendous distilling plant. As the vapors rise. all impurities are left behind. Only as the clouds recondense the water does it again pick up the elements left behind. Now it becomes harmful to us, but beneficial to plants. There is a big difference between powdered iron filings and the iron found in plants. It takes no chemist to tell the difference.

      Why Should We Grow Older?
      The body is designed to feel younger-at any age. To feel one day older has always plagued the thinking of humanity and added worries to everyday living. New wrinkles add up to deeper lines-gray hair begins to crop out-while deaths occur at younger ages. All this need never be. Youth should remain youth-age is just a postponement-it need never come. The government is planning to educate 10,000 additional doctors to take care of the diseases for which we already have the natural cure. Why not attack the water problem, and prevent the host of diseases, without the need of additional doctors-who will die of the same diseases they attempt to cure! There is no need to have a heart so corroded with calcium deposits that surgery becomes necessary.

      What A Price To Pay
      One morning two patients came to my office. One had a ruptured blood vessel due to hardening of the arteries. He also had polar cataracts. The other patient had a severe nosebleed which resulted in the loss of a pint of blood. When he arrived at the hospital the doctor diagnosed his condition as arteriosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries. Had his nosebleed not relieved his pressure, it could have resulted in a stroke. Both patients lived on a farm, drank water excessively from hard water wells. Is it worth the price?

      What Lies In Store For Us?
      Could all these aging, crippling diseases have been avoided? What do we have to look forward to? Crippled joints and massive strokes? Do we want medical costs to wipe out our life savings? What lies in store for most of us?

      The Rewards of Prevention
      Now is the time to shout the truth from our mountain tops. It’s time for the press, radio and television to splash this possible secret to longevity on their front pages, through the air and on our television screens. Let every man, woman and child become alerted to one of the greatest discoveries of mankind. Let our medical schools and practitioners turn their attention to prevention. Vital organs are not meant to be removed, but to function! Prevention, not drugs, is the answer to our aging problems.

      Water Is Deceiving
      What is in a sparkling glass of water may look pure, taste pure, smell pure, but you will still have to drink it at your own risk.

      Here are pertinent suggestions:
      1. The water must flow from the purest possible source. Adequate safeguards must prevent pollution of this source.
      2. Frequent surveys must be made to detect potential health hazards.
      3. An enforceable system of rules and regulations must prevent development of health hazards.
      4. Proper safeguards must protect water quality from source to house.
      5. Only qualified personnel may operate the water supply system.
      6. The water source must have enough reserve to meet peak demands.
      7. Bacterial monitoring must be continuous.
      8. Only specified, scientific tests may determine water quality.
      9. Water with bacterial levels above precisely stated limits must be considered unsafe for public consumption.

      Consider, for example, Cleveland, which dropped thousands of pounds of nitrates and phosphates into Lake Erie, part of its metabolism. These wastes originated from homes, hotels, laundromats and offices. These wastes included, among other things, phenol, iron, zinc, sulfuric acids, ammonia, and hydrofluoric acid (which incidentally eats through glass). All this created complicated drinking water problems for Cleveland. And for most industrial cities.

      It’s Time To Become Alarmed
      We do not know from day to day just what pollutions may exist in our own water. There is, however, one way to be sure, and that is to distill your own water. You are then sure that you will get the purest water possible.

      A Twin Cities Problem
      I remember reading about a Coon Rapids, Minnesota, housewife who telephoned the state health department to report that water from her home well had a peculiar “foam” on it. That was the first sign of a problem that later became one of concern to several million people in the Twin Cities area.

      The “foam” came from surfactants, the active ingredient in detergents. Surfactants do not occur in nature. Thus, when they are found in an underwater supply, their origin can be traced directly to sewage discharge.

      Nitrates become hazardous to formula-fed infants. Boiling water does not make the water safer, it only increases the concentration of the nitrates.

      Nitrates-A Nebraska Problem
      Nitrates fed to our Nebraska soils-to increase our food supply along the Platte Valley-have become a health hazard to the longest-lived people in the nation. Since the water table is high, nitrates filter into the water supply for drinking purposes. Since 10 parts per million can be fatal to a newborn child, it is time to become concerned. Our luscious valley, with its tall, waving corn, is rapidly becoming a death trap.

      Today, mankind has destroyed our soils, our water and our air. The lure for wealth has overshadowed our gift of life. Through our soils we have opened the doorway to hosts of new insects and plant diseases. Through our contaminated waters we are killing our wildlife and our babies in their cribs. The air is unfit to breathe. Life today is not living. It is merely existing. Where will it all end? Is it a problem for one of us, or all of us? “If our soils are sick, our plants are sick. If our plants are sick, our animals are sick and if our animals are sick, we humans become sick,” says Paul Brinkman.

      Behind The Curtain
      Americans during any year eat millions of pounds of beef from cattle that had “cancer eye,” or similar tumorous disorders. Thousands of cattle carcasses checked by federal inspectors are held in meat plants until tumorous parts are whittled out. The remainder of the meat is put on the market.

      Millions of cattle carcasses are detained briefly in meat plants while parts are cut out because of other diseases and injuries ranging from adhesions to tuberculosis. The rest is just “fine” for consumption.

      In the meantime, federal regulations continue to permit meat processors to carve out infected or damaged portions of animals, condemn the cancerous parts of cattle, and sell the rest of the meat on the market.

      Since the meat processors do not want to lose their profits, they would much rather feed this cancer-ridden meat to the unsuspecting public as “U.S. Choice.”

      I am happy to report that a new form of clean agriculture is gaining a toehold in the United States. It is being called eco-agriculture by the publisher of Acres U.S.A.-a journal layman and farmer alike ought to read-and it relies on scientific principles as well as the practical experience of organic growers.

      Science has proved that plants with balanced hormone and enzyme systems provide their own protection against insect and fungal crop destroyers. The seat of this balance is soil fertility, starting with a pH managed by keeping calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium in proper equilibrium. The trace minerals also figure since they are keys to proper functioning of plant enzymes.

      The full package known as eco-agriculture can and does produce more abundant bins and bushels, and does it while improving nutrient quality in food for animal and human consumption. What a boon to agriculture and to the health of our nation.

      The people of Hunza do not use toxic chemicals. They grow from two to three crops per year. There are no insects or diseases. Why not channel our research and educational dollars where they will do some good?

      The Wheel Of Health
      We live by the law of transformation. Transformation from the soil to the plant-from the plant to the animal or human, then back to the soil again, forming an everlasting cycle of health. The dust of the earth then becomes the cells in our bodies. We live by the law of interdependence. No soul or body is an island by itself. It is a part of something else always. Therefore, we must first consider the soil, which is the mother of us all. We must become concerned about the air above us, from which we cling to the “breath of life.” The water around us must be pure and free of all inorganic minerals and chemicals. Every cell in our bodies must be bathed in the purest water. Life is purity. We cannot live by “bread alone.” Air, water and sunshine are responsible for life and growth. Each of these gives something to the other.

      Paul Brinkman, a former president of Queen Ann School of Cosmetology, so ably expressed himself in these words: “Water cannot be destroyed, but it can be made sick! Man with his additives has defiled the laws of God. You can always expect something unnatural whenever you violate something natural.”

      Mr. Brinkman became interested in distilled water especially since he was concerned about his diabetic condition. Imagine his surprise when he checked out sugar free. It likewise surprised his doctor. According to any edition of Merck’s Manual, the exact cause of diabetes is not known. The cause lies in the inadequate production of insulin by the beta cells of the islets of Langerhans. The cells are alive; it is just that they do not function. My inspiring teacher, Dr. Landone, stated that the mineral deposits enclose the cells with a mineral film so they are unable to function. I am inclined to believe his conclusions because there has to be a cause. Whether distilled water will cure diabetes is not for me to say. It is not within my field to diagnose; however, with the knowledge derived from my study of distilled water, I feel quite emphatic about its merits.

      There is much to learn about water. I have merely touched on a few pertinent facts of water in its relations to vibrant health and longevity. The facts I gathered have proved themselves to me. When men can live to the age of 120, 1 become alert! There has to be some cause. I am convinced that the inorganic minerals and chemicals in water become a hazard to every man, woman and child. The body must be free of sludge to operate efficiently. The eliminating organs cannot expel all the deposits, so nature does the next best thing and tucks them wherever she can. Since water is the greatest solvent known, it becomes the best agent to carry out that which is brought in.

      The test is very simple. Place a mirror or glass under a dripping faucet. Let it dry, and observe the water spots. Then place this glass in distilled water. The distilled water will dissolve the water spots. This is what the whole story is about-this is the cause of all our aging diseases. Dr. Landone cured his heart condition. Captain Diamond cured his arthritis and lived to the splendid age of 120 years. Could distilled water be the answer? If it is, how different living in this world could be. Since we live but one, therefore. should. we not live wisely? The choice is clear-it is now up to you, Disease does not exist without cause. It begins where cause begins and persists where cause persists. Chronic disease means chronic provocation. Cure cannot take place until the cause of disease is removed. Symptoms may subside or be palliated and suppressed; a crisis may pass, but disease persists so long as cause is ignored or unrecognized.

  24. Quite an informative piece.

    A few questions:

    1. One of the criticisms of distilled water is that it leeches minerals, etc. Would a combination of distilled water and other water be good as a 50/50? Or is it distilled water most of the time and get minerals from supplements, etc?

    2. You are probably familiar with “Smart Water”? Is that equivalent to distilled water re hydration and so on? And what about alkaline water which is sold in some water shops?

    3. I recently read a comment from someone where he said distilled water helped the condition of floaters in the eyes. I know you’re not hear to make such claims but if the person’s testimony is correct how would distilled water do that?

    Thank You


  25. To Dave regarding Milk.
    Cow’s milk in the USA is so full of chemicals you really should look at that first. I would guess your gastrointestinal problems are coming from consuming milk, not distilled water. Milk in the USA is a hugely protected industry. It is so heavily controlled that it is a against the law to buy raw milk in Wisconsin – the so-called dairy capital of the USA. Do some more research…I think you’ll find there’s more going on here than just your distilled water…

  26. How about you’ll run to Walmart and buy a gallon of distilled water for <$1.00. In the morning, mix 1/2 a glass of cold distilled water in with your juice and drink. (If you think death will take you, go with it.) For the rest: I do this and feel like a new man everyday. If it's killing me: the time I've enjoyed due to drinking it, far supersedes the time lost.
    Arguing the biomedical science and properties of distilled water is a little silly. Try it, see how you feel and decide for yourself. It's water, not crystal meth.

  27. Thanks so much for this wonderful informative article. I am not sure if this question has been answered, but can you suggest a few good water distiller systems?


  28. Thank you so much for sharing all this great information. It is invaluable, really. From the research you have done, is drinking distilled water straight without adding salt or trace minerals to the water the best way to do it? There is just so much information out there and I am hoping to see it straight 🙂 Thank you!

  29. There are so many people in denial, when it comes to bashing these 24 important Doctors on the subject of distilled water. My opinion is that they have been sucked into buying alkaline water, and other nonsense like alive water. minerals are from good food, not water.

  30. Too much of anything is a bad thing. Too much sodium is bad for the body but so is too little. Sea salt’s mineral composition happens to be very similar to human blood and the minerals it contains are essential. We need those minerals many of which we cannot get from food (especially with nutrient deficient soil). We contain salt. Our ancestors didn’t drink from glaciers and rainwater – they drank from springs and streams which had been mineralised from the rocks. I think you have an opinion and you are sticking to it but I don’t agree. I do agree that we do not need refined salt but there are many beneficial properties from consuming real sea salt.. with water and food (as when it is absorbed into water and food we are able to absorb it into our cells). This answers your inorganic minerals question doesn’t it. Where do your ‘organic minerals’ in your vegetables come from? From the soil…made from…err rocks

    • To Rict,

      I do not have any questions about organic vs inorganic minerals.

      And yes, plants can transform dirt, i.e. inorganic minerals into organic minerals, which is why they are the perfect food for us.

      And I’ve said that many times.

      We however are not plants and unlike plants we cannot live on dirt & rocks.

      Dirt and rocks is what clogs our body up and causes arthritis, atherosclerosis etc.

      Alexander Graham Bell (1847-1922) On Distilled Water

      Distilled water is a great solvent and removes dirt from the body, all dirt … and only dirt.

      Do you really know what our wise ancestors did? (What the majority did is not necessarily wise. Just like today.)

      Lao Tzu (Laozi, Lao Zi) On “The Water From Heaven”: Drinking Distilled Water Removes All Dirt From The Human Body, Dirt Of Every Kind (Video)

      And it is perfectly fine, if you do not agree.

      The oceans are the biggest garbage dump on the planet. I’ve recommended already in 1997 to not eat anything coming out of the ocean.

      Seaweed is totally contaminated with arsenic, mercury, etc.

      Fish is loaded with mercury, cadmium, etc.

      The Japanese, who eat Dolphins (watch the documentary ‘The Cove’ if you haven’t seen it yet) are totally poisoning their body by eating them.

      Now since Fukushima, all Tuna caught off the coast of California are radioactive (1, 2).

      So even if real sea salt – and only wet & grey celtic sea salt is real sea salt, the others have the magnesium removed – would be totally healthy, which it isn’t, then nowadays it is nothing more than highly toxic garbage.

      Some of our ancestors did drink water coming from glaciers and they drank rainwater and they’ve built brilliant structures, which did condensate an enormous amount of air moisture into water, distilled water.

      They knew exactly what they were doing.

      And many of them lived beyond 120 years of age. And yes, they had a healthy diet.

      Maybe you want to ask an expert in orthomolecular medicine about the difference between organic and inorganic minerals and absorption rates, that might give you a hint in the right direction. Maybe you don’t and want to stick to your conviction, which is perfectly fine with me.

      All the best,

  31. It does make sense though. Something to really think about.
    What I also notice is that when babies first get off the mother milk, it is advised to also let them drink a bit of distilled water, and NOT regular water. There must be a reason for this!

    Now, there is one issue though. Supermarkets sell distilled water in plastic containers. In which way does that possibly make all this redundant then?
    For this reason, would it then even make sense to buy distilled water?
    What is your experience with this?

    • To Yvonne,

      Many people are just drinking the distilled water from Walmart as mentioned in the article:


      I drink only distilled water that is coming from my own distiller and I fill it into glass bottles.

      If nothing else would be available I would probably go to Walmart too.

  32. I drink distilled water. I’m amazed by people who think it needs the debri of whatever it has run through to become a more healthy drink. The minerals that water contains is just a lottery of where it fell and ran. How can random bits of rocks be more healthy for you!

  33. I ONLY HAVE A ?


  34. I would seriously reconsider drinking distilled water for any length of time, as it passes through your body it will ‘collect’ minerals and other essential molecules which you will then urinate out, it will not discriminate between so called organic and inorganic minerals, even if there is such a distinction, you will slowly lose essential minerals and vitamins and suffer serious health problems.

    Rain water is not distilled, it sits in the atmosphere before falling, collecting bacteria, co2 and anything else it comes into contact with, it only forms in the atmosphere in the first place around a spec of dirt.

    People haven’t been drinking distilled water for thousands of years, they drunk from streams, rivers lakes and rain water, none of which is distilled.

    Finally, please don’t drink your urine, your body expelled that waste for a reason

  36. Aquarius, my dear friend!

    I found you about a month ago (March 2016). Since then, I’ve devoured everything I could find with you on YouTube. I immediately started on distilled water. I’m about 10 days in on getting in a gallon per day. For the first half of the day, my armpits reek to high heavens, then by evening have no smell. Strange.

    I have rashes on my trunk and occasional sharp pains in fingers or wherever. I had a quick sharp pain in my back last week in an area of muscle that got torn in a bicycling accident when I was 15 (I’m 50 now). After it passed I just smiled in amazement because you and others gave me fair warning about detox.

    Just checked the poundage and am down 8 or 9 pounds with no change in diet – with the exception that I just cannot eat as much when getting in a gallon a day.

    From the bottom of my heart I thank you for your passion to teach and share this information. You’ve changed my life!

    With Gratitude,
    Chris Kemp
    Beaufort SC

  37. I take several medications for asthma, as well as supplements like Turmeric, Vit C, Quercetin, Magnesium, etc… I have chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia as well.

    Will drinking this water inhibit the action of my meds or supplements?

  38. I drank distilled water for awhile and kept having dizzy spells due to lack of electrolytes getting the water into my brain cells. Distilled water adds to the problem of brain and body dehydration. Went back to mineral bottled water and a little pink sea salt, and no more dizzy spells.

    • @Gary Oliver,

      “I drank distilled water for awhile”

      How long is a while?

      “and kept having dizzy spells”

      … or kept having detox reactions from all those inorganic minerals, like fluoride, leaving your body and your brain via the bloodstream > liver filtration > gallbladder > colon > exit.

      That is called a healing reaction. Maybe you are extremely toxic and started with too much volume of distilled water, not knowing about other important detoxification methods and maybe still eating the same toxic foods. That doesn’t work, of course.


      It doesn’t, but HOW DO YOU KNOW? I have posted abundant info that shows that this isn’t true.

      Mineral water with added sea salt stops the detox and the healing (reactions) very effectively, with the body now being busy trying to maintain the status quo, instead of removing deposits and improving your health.

      Well, if that works for you and you have found for yourself that this works for you, then stick to it and watch the effects.

      If you develop arthritis, hypertension, kidney stones, gall stones, a drop in cognitive skills, etc. remember this article.

      All the best.

  39. I have been listening to your videos for a month now and I’m so grateful to and for you, for speaking out. I really would like to buy a good water distiller but I’m limited on funds and not sure which are truly legit and well made. Are you a fan of the distillers from waterdistiller.com? They are so much more affordable and claim to be the best, all stainless steel with no rubber, plastics, etc.. They are coming from China and have told me that there are no distillers made in this country which are affordable and made as well as theirs are. Thank you for any insight into this and I appologize if you already have info. about this. I could not find any more recent then 2012.

  40. Thank you. I trust your knowledge. I was hoping to have more water at a time but I don’t want anything cheaply made so I’ll get the megahome as you suggested. 🙂

  41. Hi!
    Thank you for this website and the wealth of knowledge you bring!
    I am interested in buying the Megahome Distiller today but would like to know what ‘prefilter’ do you use before distilling (brita, berkey)? It doesn’t seem like it’s necessary- like you’ve mentioned but just curious?
    My second question is how do you deal with the gases issue? We have little girl and of course ourselves don’t want to be exposed unnecessarily so I’m wondering if I need a separate room with the windows open to run the distiller?
    Thank you

  42. I went to the dirt diet but found it had remains of creatures like bugs and animals that had decayed into it. So I tried the water diet but it had animal pee in it that had made it’s way to the water tables. I couldn’t filter it out. I had to stop wearing clothes because the materials and labor all came from countries where they ate meat or had terrible civil rights violations. I stopped using a restroom because I found out the plumber had shot a bear about to attack a small child. I now must live naked on a raft in the middle of the sea and wait to die so I don’t harm anything or one.

  43. Hi. Love all the info on here + comments. I have been distilling for 2 years. I don’t prefilter. However I do use precious prills after distillation and store the finished water in glass bottles. I wondered if you have any views on precious prills? Thank you

  44. Can you drink distilled water while taking prescription drugs? Will the distilled water wash away the drugs from your system? I hope to get off of these Rx poisons in the future, but for right now, I need them. I want to do a distilled water cleanse, but am concerned about this issue. Anyone with some info on this? Thanks so much!

    • To Grace,

      From a medical advice point of view, I should say “ask your doctor”.

      However, if you ask me about my personal opinion, I would say that one can certainly drink distilled water while taking prescription drugs.

      What kind of drugs are you taking?


  45. Thanks for your reply. I take anti-depressant medication – mainly for anxiety. I also got some advice from someone at Andrew Norton Weber’s website saying that distilled waster is OK while taking Rx drugs. Thanks for your input as well! Makes me feel more confident about doing the distilled water cleanse. I’m also dealing with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, obesity, and a few other health issues. Do you know if distilled water does anything for candida/fungus/yeast, as I feel this is a problem for me.

  46. Thank you so much. I had no idea that this was one of the things causing our body’s breakdown. I’ve been on a health thing lately trying to figure out my lack of clarity and energy. One thing was iodine deficiency which I found is a problem, partly because of the depletion from the chlorine or fluoride in tap water. I’ve been researching cancer solutions in case I possibly have it. It turns out there are many things that you can take to kill cancer, but the powers that be, since they’re trying to slowly kill us, have no interest in cures. The cure for cancer is basically diet it seems or lack of the “American diet”. FWGE (fermented wheat germ extract), apple seeds (which contain cyanide which ISN’T as poisonous as we’re taught), etc. On an interesting side note, the cyanide in apple seeds along with many other fruit seeds, is said to be poisonous, but that’s only in incredibly high doses (100 grams of seeds). Otherwise, and this is the reason I believe it is lied about, it targets and kills cancer (hydrogen cyanide). Why isn’t this told? Because of our crooked, evil FDA, the most evil organization I’ve ever heard of, after researching drugs they “ok” and drugs they don’t. Anyway, thanks for fighting for the cause of keeping us healthy. It’s becoming a losing battle if we don’t get the information out there. Just keeping our diets natural is the key to ridding ourselves of practically all disease it seems.

    God bless.

  47. I want to know if distilled water flushes out vitamins and supplements (I use the natural form of Vitamin D3, vitamin B12 (methyl) probiotics, enzymes, vitamin c with bioflavinoids, and others….
    I need to be taking these everyday, but it would be considered useless if the distilled water is flushing them out of me.

    Thanks for your cooperation,

  48. Hello, I read the article “24 Doctors with the courage to tell the truth about Distilled Water”
    last year and I started drinking distilled water. I drank it for a week and half but not consisten and I stopped. I read the article again this year and decide to try it out once more. I’ve been drinking it for over two weeks and five days. 7 X a day, 2 cups each time. I get it from waltmart. So far the only thing I have seen is an improvement in my bowl movement. Do I supposed to see other improvements in my body already or is it too soon?
    I will appreciate your response. Thanks 

    • To Vilma Lopez,

      I know Andrew Norton Webber says it is kind of OK to drink the distilled water from Walmart, because of the very low storage time.

      Personally, I recommend to get a water distiller and not to drink it from plastic containers …

      Water Distiller, Countertop, White Enamel, Glass Collection – Price: $209.00

      … additionally I recommend a carbon filter to remove the VOCs.

      Andrew and others (incl. myself) recommend to drink at least a gallon per day. (Freshly made vegetable juices with your slow juicer do count also, but pure water is so important).

      The testimonials show that people who have been drinking at least a gallon per day had the most amazing success stories to tell.

      Every individual is different and so it plays also a role how healthy, old and toxic you are, when you are starting to drink distilled water.

      Correct breathing is very important too …

      Buteyko Method: Correct Your Breathing – The Oxygen Advantage – Shut Your Mouth And Change Your Life | Patrick McKeown | TEDxGalway (Video)

      … and so is a healthy diet:

      About diet I would have to write a book to tell you what works for me best (and I am still improving after all these many years). There is so much to know and people are making so many mistakes, just like they are doing with their ‘normal’ diet.

      Enzymes are so important for our health, but if we cook (kill) all of our food, then we have destroyed all of them:

      “A good way to help you to understand the importance of enzymes is by giving you an illustration.An architect, in cooperation with a contractor, may determine every item of material needed for building a new home.

      These hundreds of items could be correctly ordered and safely delivered to a building site.

      But until the carpenters, brick layers, plasterers, painters and other specialists come to do the work, the home remains unbuilt.

      Enzymes are the bodies labor force in performing all chemical and biological processes in the body. We are born with a given, limited amount of enzyme activity (I compare it to a bank account); we must learn to conserve it.

      Depleting our enzyme supply (constantly drawing from the bank account by eating only cooked and processed foods) results in a weakened immune system. Weakening our immune system makes us prime targets for disease.”

      When starting drinking distilled water (breathing correctly, changing your diet and exercising) you get results from the start, BUT you may not see and feel them immediately.

      It all takes time.

      I’ve helped people lose 10-46 kg in one year (having them eat as much as they want, but no more garbage!).

      The high ‘distilled’ water content of raw foods makes them feel full very fast and they can eat as much as they want, without gaining weight.

      And they have to eat a lot because the body will detox, rebuilt and rejuvenate itself, which needs a lot of energy and building material.

      Here are some books (Note that I do NOT agree with everything in these books. However, they will set you on a journey and help you figure out what is good for you. Personally, I believe it is important to have read all of them.)

      Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices: What’s Missing in Your Body? by Norman Wardhaugh Walker, R. D. Pope (Compiler), R. D. Pope (Foreword by)

      Hippocrates LifeForce (In this book you’ll get an explanation how long it takes on average to detoxify and rejuvenate different parts of the body and a lot more of course.)

      The Vegetarian Guide to Diet & Salad

      The Gerson Therapy: The Proven Nutritional Program for Cancer and Other Illnesses

      Become Younger

      Healthy at 100: The Scientifically Proven Secrets of the World’s Healthiest and Longest-Lived Peoples

      Green vegetable juices (and not too much fruit & not too much nuts in your diet) are important. You’ll find that out yourself.

      Why am I saying all of this?

      Simply because if you bring the pieces of the puzzle together and combine all of the good stuff, then distilled water will be so much more effective!!!

      It is all about adequately nourishing and detoxing the body (physically, but also mentally and spiritually).

      Your increased level of the life force (Qi, Prana) and focus might very well set you on a spiritual journey as well.

      And maybe you want to take your time and look at my comments (in the comment section of this article).

      Hope that was helpful.

      All the best.


      (PS: I have very little time to write comments such as this one.)

  49. why not Gallon Jug of Distilled Water from the store? I buy it at 88 cents a Gallon and it’s the only water I use for drinking and cooking….

  50. So… You mentioned drinking distilled water.. Like wtf… Are you people trying to kill people??? YOU 100% need the minerals in tap water. Sure, you can get rid of chlorine and all the “pesticide killers” and add your own but god, leave a disclaimer.

  51. hello
    Thankyou so much for your writings and information
    I have never tried distilled water for personal use but I do make perfumes and have distilled my own flowers and herbs to be used in blending. The quality and scents are closest to the natural plant, which is why I love distilling them. It is also pure for me as I know whats in what i have made. I add essential oils to my blends and use these as a spritzer on face, body and space. You have inspired me to look deeper into distilling water for drinking, I thankyou for this.
    Much love filiz
