KONIA - Water from Air, Mains and Pi Water


Pi-Mineral Water Filters


Not all water is created equal!
It is believed that water with a molecule cluster size of 5 could replace medicines & Pi water has the lowest cluster size of any water on earth.
The Konia 6 step filtration system includes a Pi-mineral water filter, making Konia water cleaner, fresher and healthier than other waters.
Our mains connected units filters water down to 0.01 of a micron, then the Pi filter changes the characteristics of the water to make it similar to the water in your body.
Pi water has amazing qualities, among them:

- Anti-oxidation effects
- Contains more oxygen than conventional waters
- Has the smallest Molecule cluster size
- Increases Immunity and protects cells from stimulation
- Effective in Preventing Rough Skin Dermatitis

Heck, when it was just:

- Has the smallest Molecule cluster size
- Increases Immunity and protects cells from stimulation
- Effective in Preventing Rough Skin Dermatitis
I was on the fence, but now that I know it works as hog wash as well I'm on board!!

Re: Not all water is created equal?

Thanks, but I'll stick with my miracle water.

Quote:
1. Ionization raises the pH of tap water from around 6 to 9.5 and increases the anti-oxidants in the water. Ionized water acts as a solvent on acidic waste stored in the body and dissolves it to be removed by the blood.

2. Ionization cuts the size of the water molecular cluster in half. This smaller cluster can penetrate the cellular membranes of the body easier, thus speeding new tissue building and waste removal.

3. Ionization splits the water molecule into H+ and OH- ions. By drinking the water with the alkaline, oxygen rich OH- ions more oxygen is made available to enrich the blood which can increase one's level of energy and promote quicker healing.

4. The ionized OH- molecules have extra electrons that neutralize destructive free radicals circulating throughout the body and thus allow the natural healing processes of the body to predominate and promote health.

These four benefits make ionized water a superior anti-oxidant, that promotes health, as well as anti-aging.

No, although it was taken from an advert. and is obviously similar to "miracle water" in the post above.
I am a skeptic at heart, but being ignorant of chemistry, i wanted to check that this water was what I suspected, in fact, BS.
Note, too, i have put the thread in the 'strange claims' forum.
I don't think any advertiser would be happy with this, or the conversation so far.

Re: Not all water is created equal?

One bottled water distributor had claims about their water that it was charged with specific electromagnetic waters. They contacted a scientific list serve to find out how to prove this claim. The laughter and jokes it generated were sweet and earned. Basically they claimed that their water was special and that you should think happy thoughts while drinking it.

In some odd way it makes me feel better to see that wacko claims are made everywhere and just not where I live.
