HOW WATER CONTAMINATION
INFLUENCES & PREVENTS
OUR WELL BEING
Hello once again and hope that this blogs edition will help you comprehend how water is a fundamental necessity to our very existence on this planet and how these unwanted additives is preventing our well being.
It may be prudent just to remind ourselves that the major component in our body is a surprising 70% water. We need to put this into planetary context and consider how the moon effects our tides throughout the world. This may be shown by the extreme differences between some high and low tides all around the globe. As you can imagine for us mere mortals the effect on 70% of our anatomy can be quite staggering.
So it is most important that this element in our bodies needs to be pure in order to help maintain optimum health, however that is becoming more of a challenge.
In many parts of the civilised world we have access to tap water, however one needs to ask is it actually safe to drink?? I am always mortified to see people at the gym drinking water from the machines, let alone others giving untreated tap water to their children or making their tea with it. Do they realise that they may be drinking a cocktail of other peoples second-hand medications. That is thanks to the fact that today’s pharmaceuticals have been designed to be stable and long lasting. While that makes their doses reliably consistent, it also means that a substantial amount of the prescribed drugs that people take goes through their bodies and out into waste water. In many cases the filtering process in our sewage systems are not able to eliminate a proportion of these drugs and they reappear back into our domestic water supply.
It is not just restricted to those prescribed drugs but also the recreational variety can also be found in the domestic water supply. I found it quite a wake up call when I discovered that in some cases levels of cocaine have been found in our tap water, with differing concentrations, depending on the day of the week.
Then we have to consider not just the environmental consequences of hydraulic-fracking but also the chemicals that they are pumping into the ground to help force out these gases. Many fracking chemicals are protected from disclosure under trade secret exemptions. Studies of fracking waste have identified formaldehyde, acetic acids, and boric acids, among hundreds of others. For each frack, 80-300 tons of chemicals may be used, selected from a menu of up to 600 different chemicals. At this point we then have to understand the sources of some of our water supplies and it will not surprise you to learn that water from nearby rivers, streams and springs are very often diverted into your local reservoir. Then a tad more local research will expose the latest fracking exercise in your area. So it is only a matter of putting the dots together to explain why your tap water may smell unpleasant and even after filtering and boiling exposes some unwanted qualities.
The real horror story has to be the water fluoridation, as a perverse suggestion that it is good for health. In essence fluoride may be considered as the toxic waste of the fertiliser industry, since it cannot be dumped into the sea by International Law. So somehow it was suggested that it was able to prevent teeth decay, however not only has it been described as a toxic poison, but it calcifies the very vital pineal gland. In essence one of the primary functions of the gland is to produce melatonin, which regulates your wake-sleep cycle. However, fluoride accumulates in the pineal gland more than any other organ of the body and leads to the formation of phosphate crystals. As your pineal gland hardens due to the crystal production, less melatonin is produced and regulation of your wake-sleep cycle gets disturbed. In essence, a lack of proper sleep can create untold damage to the body.
So by now I hope you will understand why David thought it important to include water within my remit. The poisons, drugs and chemicals now found in our domestic tap water make buying bottled spring water for drinking and cooking an essential part of my healthy living formula.
My next blog will cover the manipulation of our weather patterns and how this is effecting the ecology and agriculture of our land.
