Expert opinions on pure water

Maximum Health
Dr Robert D Willix Jr., M.D.

"If you decide on bottled water, make sure it is distilled. The gold standard for purifying your water is a system that distils 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."

The Choice is Clear
Dr Allen E Banik, USA

"Let me classify the 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.

Distilled water is water which has been turned into vapour, so that all its impurities are left behind. Then, condensing, it is turned back to pure water. It is the only water which is pure - the only water free from all impurities."

"Distillation provides us with the purest water obtainable...by all means make the smart choice in the type of water you drink. There should only be one choice - PURE! And pure means distilled."

How to Save Your Teeth : Toxic Free - Preventative Denti
Dr David Kennedy, D.D.S.

"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."

The Choice is Clear
Allen E Banik

"There is a mountain in the water you drink. You can consume approximately 450lbs of inorganic minerals from some tap and well water in your lifetime. This could settle in your vital organs like it did in grandma's tea kettle, causing all kinds of trouble. Distilled water is the answer to remove all impurities."

"Water - it makes up most of every human being - all of the bodily processes depend on it, yet the water we drink is being steadily polluted by thousands of toxic substances, from disease germs and viruses to poisonous chemicals added by industry or, deliberately, as controversial "medication"."

Dietary Wellness
James Blach, M.D

"There is only one water that is clean and that is steam distilled water. No other substance on our planet does so much to keep us healthy and get us well as this water does."

Water - The Shocking Truth
Paul C Bragg, N.D., Ph.D. (Health & Fitness advisor to Australian fourfold Olympic champion Betty Cuthbert)

"Pure water is a necessity for health! In research begun way back in 1960, the water supplies of 1,633 of the largest cities in the U.S. were analysed. The shocking results of this long study showed a definite link between water quality and the mortality rate from cancer, cardiovascular disease and other chronic diseases."

Prescription for Nutritional Healing
James F. Balch, M.D. & Phyllis A Balch, C.N.C.

"Distillation involves the process of vaporizing water by boiling it. The steam rises, leaving behind most bacteria, viruses, chemicals, minerals and pollutants from the water. The steam is then moved into a condensing chamber where it is cooled and condensed to become distilled water ... We believe that only steam-distilled water should be consumed."

A Diabetic Doctor Looks at Diabetes
Peter A Lodewick, M.D.

"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 vapour is condensed. The process results in water that is in its purest form. Distillation is the single most effective method of water purification."

World Health Organisation 1993
National health and medical research council / agriculture and resource management council of Australia and New Zealand, 1996.

"The availability of safe water supplies for drinking, cooking and other household uses is well recognised as essential to protecting the public's health. Even in the urban setting where water is comprehensively treated to minimise adverse health impacts, there is increasing concern about the quality of water and its impact on health in Australia and internationally."
