Avoid
Drinking Chlorinated Water
It is helpful to
avoid drinking chlorinated water on a regular
basis. Reasons being:
-
It can be
difficult to build a healthy environment of
beneficial bacteria in the colon while
drinking chlorinated water.
-
By drinking
chlorinated water, it is very likely that you
are also ingesting significant levels of
Trihalomethanes (THMs), which are chemical
compounds that are suspected of increasing
cancer rates and may adversely affect other
bodily systems.
Avoid
Drinking Fluoridated Water
It is also helpful to
avoid drinking water medicated with fluoride
compounds. Water with fluoride compounds added often
has a much higher lead content. In addition, the
fluoride builds up in the tissues, organs, and
bones. Fluoride causes slow damage to the bones,
inhibits key enzymes, contributes to arthritic-like
symptoms, and has recently been shown to be
neurotoxic (lowering children's IQ).
Recent research has
shown that fluoride in drinking water, cooking
water, and pre-made beverages do not prevent tooth
decay (only topical applications of fluoride does
this to an extremely small extent). Like other slow
poisons, fluoride is avoided by people who are
serious about healing or preventing illnesses.
Note: Junk foods
and infant foods with deboned chicken and
non-organic fruit juices such as grape juice can
contain dangerously high levels of fluoride and
should be avoided.
