The problem is that most of my patients do not drink enough water. They say it doesn’t taste good. They drink all kinds of things that are acidic in place of it. These acidic drinks like coffee, beer, soda, fruit juice, tea, etc. detract from real health.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-left: 0in; "&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;Kangen Water really does taste good and I’m watching people drink more of the Kangen Water than ever before. Honestly, this is about like discovering the Fountain of Youth in my opinion!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; "&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style=" ;color:blue;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;People drinking the Kangen Water are experiencing health benefits like I’ve only seen with expensive therapy programs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt; What really thrills me about this is that everyone in your family can experience the health benefits immediately!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;Dr. Carpenter is very gracious to host a Health and Wellness call each week that is free on Thursday evenings.  He talks about the properties of this water, how it works and answers people's specific questions.  To listen in, dial 512-879-2059 and then press 388905#.  The calls usually last about 30-45 minutes. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:medium;"&gt;He is extremely knowledgeable about the technology.  It took him years to find the machine that produced the results that he had seen in the hospitals in Japan.  He knows the ins and outs of most of the units available on the market.  You can learn more about his quest to find the best machine on the market.

members attended 1st Annual Global Event for Enagic in Las Vegas last weekend and team member &lt;a href="http://www.northtexaskangenwater.info/"&gt;Kathryn Conary&lt;/a&gt; had this to say about her experience.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I was sitting in the Saturday afternoon presentations at the Las Vegas Global Training, with one of my new distributors.&amp;nbsp; There was a beautiful lady sitting on the left side of my new distributor.&amp;nbsp; It came to light that she was former Miss Chile.&amp;nbsp; She was introduced and shared &lt;span lang="EN"&gt;about her experience in providing Kangen Water to the Chilean miners who were trapped.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; She said that three days after the accident happened, she felt a strong desire to find a way to get this water to them.&amp;nbsp; She contacted the Chilean government officials and met with the President.&amp;nbsp; A system was devised in order for her to fulfill her mission.&amp;nbsp; She said she helped with the design of the tube that was used to send the water down to the miners.&amp;nbsp; She talked about when she got to the AP in Chile, the only thing that successfully arrived was the Kangen Water equipment, but her clothes did not!&amp;nbsp; Her son, who traveled with her, said, “don’t worry mommy, the most important thing arrived!”&amp;nbsp; So they got &amp;nbsp;to&amp;nbsp; the accident site; and since the water in Chile is so hard, Miss Chile had to make several trips to the hardware store to find the right fittings, but she got it connected and they started sending fresh Kangen Water down to the miners every day, until they were successfully rescued.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I think this is a primary reason why the men were in such good shape after their ordeal.&amp;nbsp; They were properly hydrated and their bodies were able to endure the stress of the accident and the entrapment for so long.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;object height="385" width="640"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/f7uhukEBJvM?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/f7uhukEBJvM?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;

It was Founder, &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.charitywater.org/about/scotts_story.htm" title="Scott Harrison" rel="homepage"&gt;Scott Harrison&lt;/a&gt;'s first time in Texas and it couldn't have put on a better show.  Nothing like spring time in Austin. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;He gave a heartfelt presentation of how he got started with Charity Water, from Night Club promoter to rockstar philanthropist. Like many of us, he realized that there is more to life than partying and spending money extravagantly.  We are all on this Earth for a purpose and once we tap into that, life is very rewarding.  Scott has been able to provide clean drinking water for over a million people in developing countries through Charity Water and has changed those people's lives forever.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;He gave us a glimpse into his vision for solving the water crisis in the world.  It' s just amazing what a few dollars from everyone can do once they are collected and brought together.  He started by asking his friends to donate a few dollars to his birthday party.  He raised thousands and built the first 3 wells.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Think about it.  A margarita here costs $12, a mexican martini $16, a bag of rice in a developing country costs $16 and that feeds a family of 4 for a month. $20 can give a person in Africa clean, safe drinking water for 20 years.  &lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: 200; line-height: 24px; "&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; "&gt;If each of us just donated the price of one cocktail per month we would end the world's water crisis in just a few short years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; "&gt;I spoke with Scott about &lt;a href="http://www.msiworldteam.org/"&gt;MSI World Team's&lt;/a&gt; vision of helping those without water and how we want to help unite people for this common cause.

They express concerns that if they use a filtration system or a &lt;a href="http://www.kangendreams.com/thesolutions.html"&gt;Kangen Water generator &lt;/a&gt;that they will be depriving their children of a vital nutrient.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They couldn't be further from the truth.  Sometimes things get lost in translation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What they don't realize is that fluoride is great for healthy teeth; HOWEVER, it is not to be ingested.  You get fluoride from toothpastes and mouthwashes.  All of which should be spit out and not swallowed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dr. Hardy Limeback, BSc, PhD, DDS was one of the 12 scientists who served on the National Academy of Sciences panel that issued a report calling a halt on drinking water fluoridation programs across the USA and asked EPA management to recognize fluoride as posing a serious risk of causing cancer in people. &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Fluoride in Drinking water: A Scientific Review of the EPA's standards&lt;/span&gt;. Dr. Limeback is an associate professor of dentistry and head of the preventive  dentistry program at the University of Toronto.  He further wrote his concerns in a letter dated April 2005 titled, &lt;a style="font-style: italic;" href="http://www.fluoridealert.org/limeback.htm"&gt;"Why I am ow officially opposed to adding fluoride to drinking water".&lt;/a&gt;  He goes on in the article to state serious harm that can be caused from long-term fluoride ingestion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another example of cutting costs when they probably shouldn't be.  Hydrofluorosilicic acid is recovered from the smokestack scrubbers during the production of phosphate fertilizer and sold to most of the major cities in North America, which use this industrial grade source of fluoride to fluoridate drinking water, rather than the more expensive pharmaceutical grade sodium fluoride salt. Interestingly enough, fluorosilicates have never been tested for safety in humans. They are contaminated with trace amounts of heavy metals such as lead, arsenic and radium that accumulate in humans. Increased lead levels have been found in children living in fluoridated communities. Bone cancer has been shown to be associated with radium in the drinking water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just another tidbit of information.  Half of all ingested fluoride remains in the skeletal system and continues to collect over your lifetime.  Like we need more things accumulating in our bodies.  This increases the risk of bone fractures and arthritis.  And guess who is at a larger risk?  People who consume more water, such as athletes, people who know the importance of being hydrated, and people with diabetes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Studies have also found that fluoride accumulates in parts of the brain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know about you but I am with the doctors.  I think that fluoride in my drinking water is BAD and completely not necessary. &lt;a href="http://www.msiworldteam.org/What_is_Kangen_Water__JA5X.html"&gt; I would like to take care of my health&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A &lt;a href="http://www.kangendreams.com/thesolutions.html"&gt;Kangen Water generator&lt;/a&gt; is a perfect solution to removing some of the fluoride from your drinking water along with lead and other harmful particulate and providing your family with the healthiest safest drinking water on the planet.  In areas with high fluoride levels, you may choose to add a 3 stage filter to help eliminate as much as possible before it even gets to your Kangen Water generator, therefore removing even more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;fieldset class="zemanta-related"&gt;&lt;legend class="zemanta-related-title"&gt;Related articles by Zemanta&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;ul class="zemanta-article-ul"&gt;&lt;li class="zemanta-article-ul-li"&gt;&lt;a href="http://blog.press-releases-news.com/2010/01/its-time-to-retire-fluoridation.html"&gt;It's Time to Retire Fluoridation&lt;/a&gt; (press-releases-news.com)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="zemanta-article-ul-li"&gt;&lt;a href="http://socialactions.net/Q4a"&gt;end the sodium fluoridization of our water&lt;/a&gt; (socialactions.net)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="zemanta-article-ul-li"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.e-prescribe.biz/miscellaneous/should-you-use-fluoride-or-not"&gt;Should You Use Fluoride or Not?&lt;/a&gt; (e-prescribe.biz)&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt;  &lt;div style="margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;" class="zemanta-pixie"&gt;&lt;a class="zemanta-pixie-a" href="http://reblog.zemanta.com/zemified/00ef8ef5-8347-4aef-8d22-2fcbbbc69540/" title="Reblog this post [with Zemanta]"&gt;&lt;img style="border: medium none; float: right;" class="zemanta-pixie-img" src="http://img.zemanta.com/reblog_e.png?x-id=00ef8ef5-8347-4aef-8d22-2fcbbbc69540" alt="Reblog this post [with Zemanta]" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="zem-script more-related pretty-attribution"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://static.zemanta.com/readside/loader.js" defer="defer"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4456983186007692526-2606137553394969494?l=msiworldteam.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/feeds/2606137553394969494/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2010/02/image-via-wikipedia-fluoride-in-water.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/2606137553394969494'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/2606137553394969494'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2010/02/image-via-wikipedia-fluoride-in-water.html' title='Fluoride in the Water: Good or Bad?'/><author><name>bamstel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16070191885300866883</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oCWq6OuFBII/TMBR9HOSTnI/AAAAAAAAACg/91ZxjJ2qY2g/S220/2x2Brandy_5923.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456983186007692526.post-29081563707213823</id><published>2009-08-19T09:41:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-19T10:26:49.540-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Environment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fiji'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bottled water'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fiji Water'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='environmental impact'/><title type='text'>Fiji Water: Artesian Water or Environmental Nightmare?</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="zemanta-img" style="margin: 1em; float: right; display: block; width: 250px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/36521958135@N01/153101585"&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/64/153101585_d8e098320d_m.jpg" alt="Fiji bay" style="border: medium none ; display: block;" height="151" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="zemanta-img-attribution"&gt;Image by &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/36521958135@N01/153101585"&gt;jdlasica&lt;/a&gt; via Flickr&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Today, I am going to share with you some information that was recently brought to my attention. The environmental disaster that is occurring with bottled water is alarming.  In the US we are consuming bottled water at an incredible rate.  Many of the brands are bottled here in the US, however, we also import bottled water.  There are many health issues that are associated with drinking bottled water where ever it comes from.  But it seems completely excessive to import bottled water given the environmental impact.&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Fiji’s Environmental Contribution&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fiji Water has been criticized for the environmental costs embedded in each bottle. The production plant runs on diesel fuel, 24 hours a day. The high-grade plastic used to make the bottles is transported from China to Fiji, and then (full of water) to the United States. A 1 liter bottle of FIJI Water contaminates 6.74 liters of water to stretch-blow mold the plastic, burns fossil fuel to transport plastics from China and full bottles to the U.S., and produces 0.25 kg of greenhouse emissions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;250g of CO2 are released for each bottle of FIJI Water imported to the United States.  This includes 93g for manufacturing a bottle in China, 4g for transporting an empty bottle to Fiji, and 153g for shipping a full bottle to the United States. Fiji Water’s total carbon footprint, a measure of the exclusive global amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases emitted over the full life cycle of a product or service, was 85,396 tonnes CO2eq in the base year 2006 – 2007 for all bottles produced. Seventy-two percent of those emissions came from manufacturing raw materials, bottling and ocean freight. Overall, the average energy cost to make the plastic, fill the bottle, transport it to market and then deal with the waste would be "like filling up a quarter of every bottle with oil.“&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Additional Environmental Impact Created By Fiji Water&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bringing these bottles of water here from the other side of the earth involves packing them into cardboard boxes. In the South Pacific, this often means rain forest cardboard, produced from rain forest destruction. The boxes of bottles are then trucked from the bottling plant to a sea cargo terminal in Fiji, then shipped across the ocean on fossil-fuel-powered freighters to the US Pacific coast. The fuel these ships use produces exhaust gases – Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), Sulfur Oxides (SOx), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Particulate Matter (PM) which contribute to global warming and other air quality issues.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unregulated oil and bilge water discharges affect the sea and marine life as does the leakage and waste fluids from ship machinery. Noise and vibration from vessels impact marine mammals. Grease on wires washed off during mooring operations gets into the sea. Chemicals used for deck cleaning or surface preparation prior to painting can be washed overboard. Aquatic marine organisms and pathogens attached to hulls are spread around the world, threatening indigenous species.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once they arrive in the United States, they’re loaded onto trains and trucks, all powered by fossil fuels, and eventually warehoused, prodded with forklifts, loaded onto other trucks, shipped to other warehouses and eventually delivered to your local convenience store or drink machine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is already clear that the manufacturing process and product distribution is energy-intensive and produces toxic byproducts, but there is another major environmental impact. When we’re done drinking our water, over 85 percent of these bottles wind up in landfills (where they take up to 1,000 years to degrade) and incinerators—the latter of which can release a potpourri of deadly toxins into the environment. Recycling plastic bottles is still often cost-prohibitive.&lt;br /&gt;From the environmental impact, you might as well be swigging down a pint of oil! All of a sudden that bottle of refreshing Fiji Water doesn’t sound so refreshing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I feel so passionate about this issue that I spent a couple of months putting together a DVD about the impacts of bottled water on the environment, global communities and your health and you can purchase it &lt;a href="http://msiworldteam.org/"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.  &lt;span&gt;Below is a trailer for the movie. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;JOIN us now to raise people's awareness of the harmful impacts of drinking bottled water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="344" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WbrBAFVWQYY&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WbrBAFVWQYY&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;    &lt;div style="margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;" class="zemanta-pixie"&gt;&lt;a class="zemanta-pixie-a" href="http://reblog.zemanta.com/zemified/ec2908e7-f580-4f24-a6a6-b674b30a78ec/" title="Reblog this post [with Zemanta]"&gt;&lt;img style="border: medium none ; float: right;" class="zemanta-pixie-img" src="http://img.zemanta.com/reblog_e.png?x-id=ec2908e7-f580-4f24-a6a6-b674b30a78ec" alt="Reblog this post [with Zemanta]" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="zem-script more-related pretty-attribution"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://static.zemanta.com/readside/loader.js" defer="defer"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4456983186007692526-29081563707213823?l=msiworldteam.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/feeds/29081563707213823/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/08/fiji-water-artesian-water-or.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/29081563707213823'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/29081563707213823'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/08/fiji-water-artesian-water-or.html' title='Fiji Water: Artesian Water or Environmental Nightmare?'/><author><name>bamstel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16070191885300866883</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oCWq6OuFBII/TMBR9HOSTnI/AAAAAAAAACg/91ZxjJ2qY2g/S220/2x2Brandy_5923.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://farm1.static.flickr.com/64/153101585_d8e098320d_t.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456983186007692526.post-4685830529798364526</id><published>2009-07-22T15:02:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-22T15:27:46.309-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Environment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bottled water'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='United States Environmental Protection Agency'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Drinking water'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chlorine'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cancer'/><title type='text'>Impacts of Chlorine on the Body</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="zemanta-img" style="margin: 1em; float: right; display: block; width: 310px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Environmental_Protection_Agency_logo.svg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/Environmental_Protection_Agency_logo.svg/300px-Environmental_Protection_Agency_logo.svg.png" alt="Environmental Protection Agency logo" style="border: medium none ; display: block;" height="327" width="300" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="zemanta-img-attribution"&gt;Image via &lt;a href="http://commons.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Environmental_Protection_Agency_logo.svg"&gt;Wikipedia&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;What Experts Say About Chlorine In Tap Water&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;“Known carcinogens are found in drinking water as a direct consequence of the practice of chlorination”&lt;br /&gt;FRANCIS T.

That's well below the limit of 600 parts per billion set by a directive for bisphenol A (BPA) in food.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In a survey posted on its website Thursday, Health Canada also said its testing found low levels in some 18.5-litre polycarbonate bottles of drinking water.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;BPA is used to make epoxy resins in the protective linings on the inside of metal lids and containers. The linings prevent corrosion of the metal and contamination.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The chemical also makes plastic hard and shatterproof and is found in water bottles, as well as consumer products like CDs. Studies have shown the chemical can imitate the female hormone estrogen, and it has been linked to cancer and infertility in animals.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Health Canada's findings covered 122 baby foods prepackaged in glass jars with metal lids, representing seven brands by six different companies. The baby food was bought in Ottawa last August.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The bottled water testing included samples of 54 different products representing 21 brands by 16 companies. They were bought in Ottawa stores in April 2008. The containers were made of metal, glass, high-density polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate and polycarbonate.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Levels of BPA from the non-polycarbonate water products were below the "method detection limit" of 0.5 parts per billion. But bisphenol A was detected in 13 of 17 samples from four of the five polycarbonate bottled water products. Concentrations ranged from 0.5 to a high of 8.82 parts per billion, with an average of 1.5 parts per billion.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"Since migration of BPA from [polycarbonate] containers into water at room temperature is very slow, it is likely that the products with higher BPA were exposed to heat (e.g., under the sun) during storage and/or transportation," the report said.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In a release issued by the Canadian Bottled Water Association on Thursday, executive director Elizabeth Griswold said the Health Canada study is "both validation and vindication."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"It clearly demonstrates that bottled water is a safe, healthy and portable alternative to other beverages," Griswold said.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Yeah right.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In October 2008, Canada became the first country in the world to ban the import and sale of polycarbonate baby bottles containing BPA, saying infants were more vulnerable than adults to such chemicals. The federal government also announced it would devote $1.7 million over three years to study the chemical. Health Canada's ongoing evaluation of bisphenol A has included a review of human and animal studies around the world, in addition to research into how much of the chemical is leaching from consumer products. The findings released Thursday are part of that research.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In March, Health Canada released a study of canned pop that found the vast majority of the drinks contain BPA...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;With files from The Canadian Press&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="zemanta-pixie"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4456983186007692526-1781719690205506836?l=msiworldteam.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/feeds/1781719690205506836/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/07/bpa-in-baby-food-or-stop-poison.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/1781719690205506836'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/1781719690205506836'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/07/bpa-in-baby-food-or-stop-poison.html' title='BPA in Baby Food, or STOP the Poison'/><author><name>Steve</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02561093351877979397</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Q4XRqhXgCMs/SXiVW0Ugd2I/AAAAAAAAAA4/JAPaTNNjWvw/S220/Steve+Head+Shot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456983186007692526.post-379081101312797540</id><published>2009-07-07T08:32:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-07T09:20:44.878-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pharmaceutical drug'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='prescription drugs'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='medications'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='clean cycle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Drinking water'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kangen Water Machine'/><title type='text'>"Clean Water" and "It Cleans It"</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="zemanta-img" style="margin: 1em; float: right; display: block; width: 250px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/20561948@N00/96989419"&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/34/96989419_b92301034c_m.jpg" alt="My Medication" style="border: medium none ; display: block;" height="180" width="240" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="zemanta-img-attribution"&gt;Image by &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/20561948@N00/96989419"&gt;spike55151&lt;/a&gt; via Flickr&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;There is a difference in "clean water"  and "clean" when using the &lt;a href="http://msiworldteam.org/The_Water_Machines.html"&gt;Kangen Water machine&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The green button that says "clean water" and has 7.0 pH written on it is 7.0 pH water.  The "clean water" is dispensed through the top flexible hose.  This water has been through the cleaning filter portion of the system but it has not gone through the electrolysis process.  This water is used when you are taking medications, for watering small animals, and mixing baby formula.  The &lt;a href="http://msiworldteam.org/What_is_Kangen_Water__JA5X.html"&gt;Kangen water&lt;/a&gt; (8.5-9.5 pH) is hexagonal and because of that structure, it absorbs into your cells much quicker than other types of water.  Medications are not created for this absorption rate.  They are created for normal tap water.  Most vitamins are fine with the higher pH waters since you want them to absorb quickly.  That way you are receiving the maximum benefit before you urinate them out.  However, if you were to use it with Niacin, it is going to hit your system much quicker and could be quite uncomfortable creating an intense flush.  Same would be the case for blood pressure medicine, etc. So you can see why you would want to use "Clean water 7.0" for taking medications.  Be on the safe side.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When taking prescription medications: discontinue drinking the Kangen Water (8.5-9.5 pH) 10-15 minutes prior to taking medication, use the Clean water (7.0 pH) to take your prescriptions, then give yourself at least 30 minutes before resuming drinking the Kangen Water (8.5 pH to 9.5 pH).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is also suggested that if you feel the need to drink water with a meal and the meal contains a concentrated protein, like animal products, that you consume Clean water (7.0 pH) rather than Kangen water (8.5-9.5 pH) with that meal.  However, Dr. Shinya's book the Enzyme Factor suggests that you refrain from drinking water at all during meals and 1 hour prior to meals.  He says that it helps with enzymes and digestion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then you asked about when the machine says "it cleans it".  This is actually a cleaning cycle for the machine.  After a certain amount of water has run through the machine, it automatically cleans the system.   Just turn the water on and allow it to run until the machine says the water type that the button is on.  For example, let's say you have the button on 9.5pH, turn the water on and you reach out to put some water into a container, the machine says "it cleans it".  You should allow the machine to run water into the sink until it says "Kangen Water 9.5", then you can put your container under the facet and fill it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After making Strong Acidic Water (2.5 pH), your machine will run a clean cycle also.  Just set the button on the type of drinking water you want, turn on the faucet and let it run through the cycle.  It will let you know when the type of water you selected is flowing through the nozzle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope this clears up some questions about features on the &lt;a href="http://msiworldteam.org/The_Water_Machines.html"&gt;SD501 Water System&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-top: 10px; height: 15px; text-align: justify;" class="zemanta-pixie"&gt;&lt;a class="zemanta-pixie-a" href="http://reblog.zemanta.com/zemified/53511a10-3897-407f-a6ee-638e3a6cbf68/" title="Reblog this post [with Zemanta]"&gt;&lt;img style="border: medium none ; float: right;" class="zemanta-pixie-img" src="http://img.zemanta.com/reblog_e.png?x-id=53511a10-3897-407f-a6ee-638e3a6cbf68" alt="Reblog this post [with Zemanta]" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="zem-script more-related pretty-attribution"&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://static.zemanta.com/readside/loader.js" defer="defer"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4456983186007692526-379081101312797540?l=msiworldteam.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/feeds/379081101312797540/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/07/clean-water-and-it-cleans-it.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/379081101312797540'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/379081101312797540'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/07/clean-water-and-it-cleans-it.html' title='&quot;Clean Water&quot; and &quot;It Cleans It&quot;'/><author><name>bamstel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16070191885300866883</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oCWq6OuFBII/TMBR9HOSTnI/AAAAAAAAACg/91ZxjJ2qY2g/S220/2x2Brandy_5923.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://farm1.static.flickr.com/34/96989419_b92301034c_t.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456983186007692526.post-7171029083879418423</id><published>2009-07-06T18:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-02-22T16:39:01.145-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mobile phone'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Health'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Environment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Synthetic fiber'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Plastic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Science and Technology'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Natural environment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hospital'/><title type='text'>The environmental toll of plastics</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="zemanta-img" style="display: block; float: right; margin: 1em; width: 250px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/44493439@N00/3693038535/" jquery1246931392291="458"&gt;&lt;img style="border: medium none; display: block;" alt="Bridges of New Westminster" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2523/3693038535_123b0e8286_m.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="zemanta-img-attribution" jquery1246931392291="459"&gt;Image by &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/44493439@N00/3693038535/"&gt;janusz l&lt;/a&gt; via Flickr&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;The environmental toll of plastics&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;From cell phones and computers to bicycle helmets and hospital IV bags, plastic has molded society in many ways that make life both easier and safer.

It just is not a good idea to use thirst alone as a guide for when to drink &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Kangen&lt;/span&gt; water. Once the body becomes dehydrated , that is the signal for your body to be thirsty. By the time you become thirsty, it's true and clear that you are already slightly dehydrated. Also, be alert that as you are more often dehydrated the sensation of thirst is also diminished, and as we get older the body is less able to sense dehydration, and then send your brain signals of thirst . .&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;To prevent dehydration and be healthy make sure your body has the fluids it needs, make water your beverage of choice. Nearly every healthy adult can consider the following:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;§  Drink a liter of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Kangen&lt;/span&gt; water about 45 minutes before each meal. And if you can hold off on drinking more water afterwards until the food has passed from the stomach, this is to allow digestion to occur completely.  I know when this happens you might not be aware so 20 minutes is usually good.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;§  Drink &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Kangen&lt;/span&gt; water before, during and after exercise.  You can check your total body weight loss if you want to be technical about the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;re hydration&lt;/span&gt; you need after exercise.  If you are this accurate we can suggest some sports trainers and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;nutritionist&lt;/span&gt; to work with you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;§  Substitute &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Kangen&lt;/span&gt; water for alcoholic drinks at social gatherings. Or at least drink one glass of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Kangen&lt;/span&gt; water in between any alcoholic beverages.  Also a small dash of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Kangen&lt;/span&gt; water in wine will make it more smooth and decrease the acidity.  Ask us about &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;Kangen&lt;/span&gt; Ice wow!  This is great!

He did not suggest that it is a cure or a &lt;span style="font-family: georgia;" class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;remedy&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;; however, it is an action that could be taken as an experiment to see what happens.  After all, it is just water and what could it hurt to try a natural approach.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Burns, rug burns, and sunburns - Spritz some 11.5 pH water on it to deal with pain and then some beauty water 5.5 pH to heal it up.   Soak the area and then allow to dry before putting on clothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For swollen gums, swish around some 11.5 pH and then spit it out.  To kill the infection, rinse mouth with 2.5 pH water and then spit it out.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Mouthwash - The 2.5 pH Strong Acidic water can be used as a mouthwash.  The high &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;ORP&lt;/span&gt; of this water has been shown to destroy bacteria and other micro-organisms with exposure times of less than a minute.  It's the bacteria breaking down the foods in your mouth that produce the acids that cause tooth decay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Strep Throat - Gargle with 2.5 pH 3-4 times per day. For children that cannot gargle, you can spray (10 pumps) from a spray bottle into their throat 3 or 4 times per day.  It will not hurt them if they swallow this water.  It is just water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Psoriasis &amp;amp; Eczema - Dr. Dave Carpenter has seen a lot of success with using the 5.5 pH Beauty water sprayed on the areas 3-6 times per day and then allowing it to air dry.  If it is irritated and inflamed, try the ll.5 pH water.  You wouldn't want to use the pH 2.5 too much as it would tend to dry it out.  However in extreme cases, you may want to try the 2.5 pH first, let it air dry. Then when it is completely dry, soak a cloth in 11.5 pH water and apply to the area for at least 5 minutes.  Let it dry again and then apply the 5.5 pH Beauty water and allow to air dry.  Repeat this process at least twice per day.  It is highly recommended to spray 5.5 pH Beauty water  on the area at least every 2 waking hours.  This condition is a symptom of an over acidic body and therefore it is important to drink the recommended amounts of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Kangen&lt;/span&gt; Water to help neutralize the acidity in the body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Acne - There are a few different ways suggested for using the water with acne depending on the type and severity.  None of them will hurt you, since it is just water, so you can experiment to determine the one that works for you.   If you have a big, inflamed and infected spot,  spray some 2.5pH Strong Acidic water on it and then let it air dry.  This will kill any bacteria.  Then when it is completely dry, soak a cloth with the pH 11.5 water and put it straight on the pimple for 5 minutes.  This helps the body neutralize the acids that are causing the acne. After this process, dry the area again and now spray some Beauty water 5.5pH and allow that to air dry.  Repeat twice per day.   If the acne doesn't look infected,  spray some Beauty water 5.5pH on it. If you drink the recommended amount of fresh &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Kangen&lt;/span&gt; water, it will also help the body to be health and acne will not be a problem.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Cuts and Scrapes - Anytime the skin has been torn, Dr. Dave Carpenter recommends spraying with the 2.5 pH Strong Acidic water at least once per day.  This will help the immune system to get rid of any bacteria, viruses, etc. which cause infection.  Then soak the area for at least 3 minutes in Beauty water and allow it to air dry.  This helps tighten the pores in the tissue and takes away the pain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style=";font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;Moles, warts, age spots, etc. - If you have something abnormal on your skin you may want to try using the 2.5 pH Strong Acidic Water on this to see what it will do.  In most cases, the easiest way is to soak a gauze pad on a band aide with the water and then apply to the area.  Change the bandage at least once a day.  Most people have reported that they've had to continue the process for 30-60 days before seeing results.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;p   style="margin: 0px;

That hot sun and outdoor activities result in dehydration.  Once dehydrated the body can no longer regulate temperature, and this is dangerous.  Many people become ill from Heat Stroke and heat exhaustion.  I have experienced these symptoms as a kid a summer camp, wow not good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So be sure to drink plenty of fluids. We of course as always suggest Kangen water.  Keep hydrated and stay out of the direct sun if possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We can always tell a neighbor who moved here from up north, they will be out at noon working hard to keep the yard pretty and by 1:30 they are sitting on porch, puffing and weasing.  Yes the heat here in Texas is more than most people can take...  ...complete outdoor activities early in the day and then it is siesta time!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you would like more information on Kangen water we have a demo every Tuesday evening, drop me a line and let me know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Would you like to see a specific article covered here?

Water constitutes approximately 60%to 75% of adult total body weight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Water is a catalyst for or involved in most all of the body’s enzymatic reactions including all of those involved in nutrient digestion, absorption, transport, and metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is also required for facilitating removal of metabolic waste by the kidneys. Inadequate intake of water compromises, and then damages cell functions by contributing electrolyte imbalances, contraction of plasma volume (reduction of blood), and finally and sometimes fatally the bodies inability to regulate body temperature.&lt;br /&gt;Factors Affecting Availability Water is not consumed in sufficient amounts by most individuals since thirst does not develop until body fluids are depleted well below levels required for optimal functioning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many people wait till thirst to drink Kangen water...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This thirst signal is suppressed with prolonged dehydration. It is known that persons who are more hydrated sense thirst more readily. These processes and mechanisms that cause the thirst sensations are stimulated by increased transfer or decreased extracellular volume which is not detected until significant contraction of plasma volume has occurred. A person experiencing blood volume contraction maybe at risk for additional damage and illness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Groups most vulnerable to dehydration, infants, elderly adults, and athletes, are either not able to adequately express thirst sensations or to detect them, or have expended large volumes of liquids through exertion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With extreme heat, advanced exercise exertion or competitive engagement resulting in excessive perspiration, thirst may lag behind actual water requirements, to the detriment of performance or health. To prevent dehydration, a minimum of eight cups of Kangen Water is suggested daily. Additional water from beverages and foods may also increase the body’s total volume.&lt;br /&gt;* Citation: Mahan, L.K. and Escott-Stump, S. Krause's Food, Nutrition &amp;amp; Diet Therapy, 10th ed.,&lt;br /&gt;2000.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Modified by Steve Barcik for MSI World Team.&lt;br /&gt;Deficiency Loss of body water amounting to 10% of the body weight impairs work, athletic, and mental performance and is associated with nausea, weakness, delirium, and hyperthermia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Signs of dehydration include poor skin turgor, skin tenting on the forehead, decreased urine output, concentrated urine, sunken eyes, dry mucous membranes in the mouth and nose, orthostatic blood pressure changes and tachycardia. Water losses exceeding 20% of body weight are extremely life-threatening.&lt;br /&gt;Kangen Requirements Consumption of approximately 2.5 to 3 liters (10.4-12.5 cups daily) of Kangen water is recommended to maintain optimal hydration. Some foods and beverages can also add to the total volume of water in the body and aid to satisfy this requirement. The equivalent of 8 cups of water (64 fluid ounces or 2 liters) is the MINIMUM amount of fluid recommended daily to replace water losses under conditions of low activity, low ambient temperature, and low altitude.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For more details on Kangen water consumption per body weight contact us at: &lt;a href="http://msiworldteam.org/Contact_Us.html"&gt;http://msiworldteam.org/Contact_Us.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More specific guidelines are provided below: Hydration Guidelines During Strenuous ActivityBefore Exercise One hour prior:16-24 ouncesDuring Exercise 5-10 ounces every 15-20 minutes OR 20-40 ounces every hourAfter Exercise 24 ounces per pound weight loss experienced during exercise, spread over several hours. &lt;a href="http://msiworldteam.org/"&gt;http://msiworldteam.org/&lt;/a&gt; From: &lt;a href="http://www.feinberg.northwestern.edu/nutrition/factsheets/water.html"&gt;http://www.feinberg.northwestern.edu/nutrition/factsheets/water.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://msiworldteam.org/"&gt;http://msiworldteam.org/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From: http://www.feinberg.northwestern.edu/nutrition/factsheets/water.html&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4456983186007692526-7168698141904764838?l=msiworldteam.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/feeds/7168698141904764838/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/05/nutrition-facts-it-is-all-about-water.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/7168698141904764838'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/7168698141904764838'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/05/nutrition-facts-it-is-all-about-water.html' title='Nutrition Facts it is all about the water'/><author><name>Steve</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02561093351877979397</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Q4XRqhXgCMs/SXiVW0Ugd2I/AAAAAAAAAA4/JAPaTNNjWvw/S220/Steve+Head+Shot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456983186007692526.post-1507461099433616303</id><published>2009-05-20T13:11:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-21T11:09:06.859-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Trends'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Holistic'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Health'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hydrate'/><title type='text'>Trends and how to be a part; Health, Holistic, Hydrate</title><content type='html'>How trends come and with them bring opportunity;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Marian Salzman a top trend spotter has recently been quoted as saying "watch for "H" themes; Health, Holistic, Hydrate.

These pieces concentrate in the oceans, through the action of the normal currents. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In the North Pacific Guyer, an area in the ocean near the USA and Canada now covers an area 4 times the size of Texas.  Not that is huge.  It is a huge swirling trash soup with plastic bits.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;And why does this matter? Some plastic floating in the ocean, what harm can that cause?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Well, what it is doing is displacing the plankton in the water.  Plankton are tiny plants and animals that form the basis of the food chain in our oceans.  There are six times more plastic in these areas than the plankton.  These little pieces of plastic are being eaten by the next little creatures, which then become starved for food and expire. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Sea birds are picking up plastic as it mimics their food and gets stuck in their digestive tract and they die.  Larger animals are finding it harder and harder to get nourishment.  Studies on plankton eating sea mammals are now just coming out and massive impacts to plankton eating whales have just been reported.  We expect a crash in the fisheries from not just over-fishing, but from the replacement of the food chain with bits of plastic.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The oceans and its sea life are critical to the whole picture of our existence.  We all need each other for earth to be in harmony.  Here are some amazing shots of other forms of life that we share the planet with taken by Sandra Critelli while on vacation near the Yucatan Peninsula. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;"Mass Migration of Stingrays:  Looking like giant leaves floating in the sea, thousands of Golden Rays are seen here gathering off the coast of Mexico.  The spectacular scene was captured as the &lt;/div&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_oCWq6OuFBII/SZ2wh2FXAbI/AAAAAAAAABY/ZY2yKirpvMw/s320/Sting+Rays+over+the+bow.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5304590031612477874" /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;magnificent creatures made one of their biannual mass migrations to more agreeable waters.

It is &lt;br /&gt;built to last with a 5 year warranty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.         &lt;a href="http://msiworldteam.org/"&gt;The SD501&lt;/a&gt; has 17 certifications.  That really speaks to the quality &lt;br /&gt;of the water and of the machine.  The other machines do not have these certifications.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.         The SD501 is the only machine on the market that is UL listed, &lt;br /&gt;meaning that is has passed all of the government regulations and inspections.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.         Many of the competitior's machines do not cover hard water or have &lt;br /&gt;use disclaimers that are in the very fine print.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.         The competitor machines do not make 2.5 pH or the 11.5, which is &lt;br /&gt;used for killing E. Coli and Salmonella and used to remove herbicides and pesticides. The pH must go as low as 2.5 in order to actually kill these bacteria. Many of the competitor brands make false claims that they make the same kind of water as the Enagic machines and they do not actually make low enough acidic water to kill the bacteria.  3.0 doesn't do it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6.         Another thing that the competitors fail to mention is that some of &lt;br /&gt;the machines cost $1000/plate to repair.  When they are sprayed they are NOT durable and will bend and break.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.         The amount of &lt;a href="http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/"&gt;water&lt;/a&gt; that the machines can produce is another huge &lt;br /&gt;difference. Many of the other machines on the market, cannot produce more than 2 gallons per day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8.         The number and size of the plates matters because of surface area and the amount of anti-oxidants that are produced.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4456983186007692526-5695462684493927552?l=msiworldteam.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/feeds/5695462684493927552/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/02/why-kangen-water-is-better.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/5695462684493927552'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/5695462684493927552'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/02/why-kangen-water-is-better.html' title='Why Kangen Water is better!'/><author><name>Steve</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02561093351877979397</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Q4XRqhXgCMs/SXiVW0Ugd2I/AAAAAAAAAA4/JAPaTNNjWvw/S220/Steve+Head+Shot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456983186007692526.post-8175975309123354328</id><published>2009-02-10T06:02:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-10T06:20:23.308-08:00</updated><title type='text'>How Prescriptions are over taking Health</title><content type='html'>Our Daily Meds: How the Pharmaceutical Companies Transformed Themselves into Slick Marketing Machines and &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0312428251/ref=sib_fs_top?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;p=S00J&amp;amp;checkSum=R3R%2BAI88a7wccXxri%2F81nfWZ%2FAXQpUA3JGFaII7FOiA%3D#reader-link"&gt;Hooked the Nation on Prescription Drugs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is an amazing book!  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"America has truly become the world’s greatest medicine show."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The book talks about how a drug effective for stopping the parasitic infection from the tsetse fly, which women and children in Africa get from fly bites while collecting water. The book mentions that the drug was not profitable for that purpose, but is very profitable removing unwanted hair from the upper lip of American women. So the drug company repurposed the drug and no it is on drug store shelves. There needs to be anew model for taking care of the world, help us find and implement that model.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The drug companies take these drugs and spin them into the best profit centers possible.  Some doctors fly around the world on vacations paid for by the drug company’s money. It really is the case of the hammer being used as a screw driver.  So if you are not familiar with that saying, people tend to use the tools at hand, for example using a hammer to drive a screw into to wood instead of using a screw driver.  It means that if a doctor has a drug that is reported to cure facial hair, here you go.  Maybe facial hair is not needing drug treatment?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How many people take drugs for simple things that can be relieved by drinking enough clean powerful water?  How many people take insulin instead of losing 45 pounds of weight?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The list goes on and on.  We as Americans would rather take a pill than take care of our own health.  The drug companies and doctors prescribe hundreds of millions of dollars of drugs every week and never considering the true issues behind the illnesses.  And us as patients tend to eat those pills right up. It is easier to take a pill than to look out for one’s self.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I say lets end this dependence on drugs, take back our &lt;a href="http://msiworldteam.org/"&gt;health and our health care&lt;/a&gt;.  Eat right, &lt;a href="http://kangendreams.com/"&gt;drink pure clean powerful water&lt;/a&gt;. Make healthy choices and get some good rest.

Yes you can see a performance enhancement of 4% for every one percent increase in hydration. Imagine cutting your racing times by 4% how many more races would you win? What do spend on training, or bikes or racing fees and travel? Kangen water for pennies a day can enhance your performance.

Already people are benfiting from having clean water in thier villages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are 1.5 billion people worldwide who do not have direct access to clean drinking water. I am proud to be part of a team and a nation who is making a difference in this simple life giving project, clean water for those who do not have it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Clean water for those here at home is also important.

He explains why none of the thousands of his cancer patients following his advice over the years has had a relapse of cancer.  He shows how you can help your body cure disease that doctors have puzzled over for decades such as cancer, heart disease, obesity, fibroids, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease, sleep apnea, and autoimmune disease.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;It amazes me that when the body is 75% water, the majority of doctors and scientists are still saying water intake is unimportant.  The first thing that they do with a patient when they are rushed to the emergency room is put the person on an IV to hydrate them. Why wouldn't this logic translate into the other benefits that hydration has in the body?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;We need to get clear that many idiopathic disease are related to acidity and dehydration.  Idiopathic is doctor terminology for they have no idea why someone is sick. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;One doctor quotes, "In my experience, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.msiworldteam.org/What_is_Kangen_Water__JA5X.html"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Kangen&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:x-small;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.msiworldteam.org/What_is_Kangen_Water__JA5X.html"&gt;tm &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.msiworldteam.org/What_is_Kangen_Water__JA5X.html"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;water&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt; supercharges your nutritional program better than anything.  Water is the key and this [&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.enagic.com/"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Enagic Kangen&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.enagic.com/"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;tm &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.enagic.com/"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Water]&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt; is the best water I know of.  Anyone who gives it an honest try will experience it in their own health, without question!" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-size:large;"&gt;Dr. Dave Carpenter - Naturopathic Physician and Acupuncturist.

What happens?  Well, they bounce back. What happens if you take a handful of marbles and throw them at a chain-link fence? Obviously, they go right through. Hexagonal Water is similar in that it is a shape and size that actually penetrates the cells and hydrates.  Many other waters of different make-up just never make it into the cell and they end up going right through us, if you know what I mean. They leave us dehydrated.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I was also extremely shocked when after months of being diagnosed as "dehydrated", after one month of being on the&lt;a href="http://www.msiworldteam.org/What_is_Kangen_Water__JA5X.html"&gt; Kangen Water&lt;/a&gt;, I had increased my hydration by 2%.  I never would have guessed by changing my water that I would increase the absorption of water and therefore hydration. I was thrilled to realize that some of the wrinkles around my eyes had actually disappeared.  It never really occurred to me that my dehydration was the cause of my wrinkles. It got me to thinking more about the affect that dehydration has on the body. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Here are a few excerpts from chapters in : The Water Puzzle&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"...At the cellular level, aging causes a shift in the ratio of water inside vs. outside the cell.  The volume of water inside the cell is reduced and cells "wither" just like the skin on the outside of the body."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"...the metabolic rate has been correlated with the amount of cell water turnover in the body and both have been linked with health and aging.  When seen from this perspective, cell water turnover becomes an important marker for overall health and longevity."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"Aging is a loss of Hexagonal Water from organs, tissues and cells, and an overall decrease in total body water.  Since aging is associated with the loss of Hexagonal Water from the body, it has been suggested that consuming Hexagonal Water results in a general slowing of the aging process. Several studies support this premise."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"In our experience, we have found that when individuals consume Hexagonal Water, the cellular water environment improves, contributing to increased health."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"Even though the source of the water we drink is important, the structure of that water is the key.  the best water for human consumption is Hexagonal Water.  this water is characterized by a small cluster size (verified using NMR technology) which penetrates the cells much faster (verified with Bio Impedance testing), supplying nutrients and oxygen more efficiently that unstructured water."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;"Even our scientists, biologist and doctors have studied everything in water, without considering that the water itself and the structure of the water may be playing an equally, important role.  going forward, we have the opportunity to look at the whole picture and come to a more complete understanding of the relationship between water and life."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This is an excellent book for understanding more about Hexagonal Water and the important role that it plays in hydration and slowing the aging process. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4456983186007692526-8838946946238850748?l=msiworldteam.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/feeds/8838946946238850748/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/01/water-puzzle.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/8838946946238850748'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4456983186007692526/posts/default/8838946946238850748'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://msiworldteam.blogspot.com/2009/01/water-puzzle.html' title='The Water Puzzle'/><author><name>bamstel</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16070191885300866883</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_oCWq6OuFBII/TMBR9HOSTnI/AAAAAAAAACg/91ZxjJ2qY2g/S220/2x2Brandy_5923.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4456983186007692526.post-1832966470958033017</id><published>2009-01-05T04:57:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-02-22T14:49:00.946-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='weight loss'/><title type='text'>Welcome</title><content type='html'>Hello and Welcome to our Kangen Water Blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;For me Kangen water has been a great find, I have lost weight, increased stamina, and athletic ability, and improved my health.
