Re: [cancercured] aqua detox

You are in danger of throwing the baby out with the funky water. At least
one manufacturer has carried out such tests and showed the water contains
bilogical metabolites, not just toxins and metals that have precipitated out
from the water. They also before and after tests on the patients using live
blood analysis and heart rate variability. This is enough for them to
continue to sell the products with a clear conscience while they run other
tests and get the original study published in a peer-reviewed journal.
Manufacturers with devices that work are shy about publicising this kind of
background work as it gets picked up and used by everyone with a foot bath
to sell -- the majority of which have no effect beyoned placebo, as you say.
