Dear Group,
Upon examination of the "Photonic Structured Water" unit and Patrick
Flanagan's "MegaHydrate", it became clear to me that both produced their
results because of large amounts of "Negative Hydrogen Ions".
GB sent this out this morning and now, for me, there is much more confusion
and many more questions manifesting themselves. Which is the correct way to
go? "Negative Hydrogen Ions" or "Positive Hydrogen Ions"? If one of them is
beneficial, does that mean that the other one is detrimental?
Mr. Brooks Bradley, since I lack the knowledge to properly digest this
information, and since I am very close to buying a "Photonic Structured
Water" unit, can you please help us sort this all out?
Sincerely,
Paul Catania

Hydrogen+: The Key to Longevity and Wellness
What causes disease to occur?
Dr. Theodore A. Baroody reported that more than 2 million Americans die from
physical illnesses each year, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer,
respiratory diseases, diabetes and liver or kidney disease. What do these
diseases have in common? In Dr. Baroody's opinion, your body was designed to
be slightly alkaline - diseases are caused by and/or only thrive in a state
of acidosis.
The Amazing Breakthrough
In 1992, Russian medical doctor and researcher, Vladimir Volkov, claims that
the cause of disease and aging is the absence of Hydrogen (H proton). Dr.
Volkov is head of the Laboratory of Biorhythmic Researches of the Russian
National Institute of Health. He believes that illnesses have a common
phase: the blood becomes acidic or acidosis occurs. Dr.Volkov believes that
the acidosis is a natural, necessary healing process. He feels that there is
no recovery without acidosis.
The body's intelligence creates this acidosis condition in order to attempt
to eliminate the toxins. Therefore, the acidosis is the main medical remedy
against everything, and is prompted by the nature of the body. The majority
of human diseases are accompanied by the acidation of an organism
(acidosis).
An acidation is carried out by the proton (hydrogen). According to Dr.
Volkov, if there is no proton, then there is no acidation, and thus, no
recovery. He has conducted extensive research studies using proton
(hydrogen) water on both animals and people and has had incredibly positive
results.
What makes us age?
Dr. Patrick Flanagan, a world famous health researcher, says: "All the
symptoms of aging are in one way or another accompanied by a slow
dehydration of our vital tissues associated with free radical oxidative
damage." Drs. Patrick and Gale Flanagan developed a powder containing an
abundance of negative hydrogen (H-) stabilized with colloidal silica. By
dissolving a capsule in water, it acquires a high antioxidant or reducing
quality.
The Flanagan's discovery, which has been submitted to the Nobel committee,
was based on a tribe that lives in the Hunza valley in Pakistan. Not only
does this tribe have average life duration of 110-120 years, they also never
get sick, look young and have a much slower process of aging than that of
other people. Thus, the Hunza valley has been called "an oasis of youth."
It was assumed that the secret of their longevity was due to the
extraordinary physical properties of the local water. Based upon their
research, the Flanagans made the conclusion that "the structure of water has
a secretââ'¬Â¹knowing which [allows us] to turn back the process of
aging...The tissues of a human organism contain a large reserve of hydrogen.
The depletion of this reserve with age results in the development of aging
process signs...The hydrogen transport can be a missed factor in the search
of the reason of the aging process... During the process of aging, the cells
of our organism lose water, and a hydrogen pool, protecting the cells from
[the] harmful actions of the free radicals, becomes exhausted. As a matter
of fact, all researchers of the longevity phenomenon agree that the free
radicals bear the responsibility for aging."
"We can assert," said the Flanagans, "that life actually is a turnover of
hydrogen, and the riddle of life is in 'the burning of hydrogen'."
While the Flannagans believe that an H- product, an alkaline supplement, is
important; Dr. Volkov states that the positive charges of a naked hydrogen
ion, H+, which is a proton, is the strongest antioxidant. Dr. Volkov
believes an acid belongs to the protons (H+) and no way to the negative ion
of hydrogen (H-)."
Dr. Volkov believes that the fact that the most aggressive free radicals,
which are the main destroyers of the cells, the hydroxyl radical [OH] and
oxygen [O] radical, have a negative charge is largely ignored. The need for
antioxidants is proven. In addition, according to Dr. Volkov, "The basic
mass of antioxidants are acids (vitamin C, lactic acid, hemoglobin acid,
amino acids, fatty acids, bile acids, all endogenic acids of an organism and
exogenous acids from the food). Dr. Volkov's research suggests that the
hydrogen proton is the premier antioxidant.
Another important role of H+, the Proton, is the production of ATP. Peter
Mitchel, Ph.D. was given the Nobel Prize in 1978 for proving that positively
charged hydrogen ions (protons) have the main role in cell adenosine
triphosphoric acid (ATP) production. For normal functioning to occur, each
cell of an organism should produce an energy and use it. There are no cells
that work without ATP.
As we age our body contains less water. Dr. Volkov states that the water
loss of an organism results from the organism's attempt to produce protons
(H+): to take them from the water. He believes this shortage of hydrogen is
the reason for human aging and illness.
Dr. Volkov asserts that carbonic acid is the best donor of protons in the
organism. Dr. Volkov believes that carbonic acid is also the best
antioxidant for an organism. The main carriers of hydrogen protons in the
best periods of our life are Donors - water and carbonic acid. Other
hydrogen donors are amino acids and lactic acid.
Experiments with Mice by Russian Doctor Kostenko
Dr. Kostenko has had surprising results that support Dr. Volkov's
viewpoints. In discussing his experiments with one-year-old mice, Dr.
Kostenko notes, "I was periodically making the acid washing of the mice...in
the medium enriched with CO2 (Carbonic Acid). The condition of their eyes,
hair has improved, improvement of the DNA condition in comparison with the
control group, i.e., the quantity of defects accumulating with age have
decreased.
THE GAIN OF AVERAGE LIFE DURATION WAS 131 PERCENT, AND 4 MICE ARE IN GOOD
HEALTH FOR THE 5TH YEAR. THAT CORRESPONDS TO 220 HUMAN YEARS, APPROXIMATELY!
Dr. Kostenko also conducted the experiments on himself. He asserts that he
has recovered from chronic illnesses, that he looks younger, and that he has
improved his physical parameters. Dr. Volkov has a very simple explanation
for Dr. Kostenko's surprising results. He believes that "the acidation of
[a] living organism with CO2 promotes the carbonic acid production by an
organism. Therefore, blood acidation by a carbon dioxide results in the
filling up of the hydrogen deficiency of an organism - And in the
prolongation of life!"
Additional support for Dr. Volkov's theory comes from the work of Jonathan
V. Wright, M.D., who is the Medical Director at Tahoma Clinic in Kent,
Washington. Dr. Wright says, "...when you get past 35, 40, 45, and start to
develop indigestion, it's highly likely that the indigestion is due to a
weaker stomach, not a stronger one, a stomach making less acid, less
pepsin." He notes that since 1976 he has used "a commercially available,
extremely precise, research-verified procedure" to literally check the
stomach acid production of thousands of people, who had complaints of
"heartburn" and indigestion. He found that the majority of people did indeed
have under acidity in their stomachs.
What makes your body alkaline or acidic?
In my opinion, your body's pH is determined by two things: 1) What you put
into your body (food, beverages, drugs, etc.) and 2) What you eliminate or
withhold inside your body (removal or harboring of acidic waste).
I personally believe Dr. Volkov's claims, and am presently beginning
research to verify the hypothesis that increased acid in the gut will help
to restore and maintain the body's natural pH balance through a process
called homeostasis. I am of the opinion that at birth the pH of our gut is
generally around 1.0. As we get older, our gut pH may rise to 2.0 or more.
This is an astronomical difference and at this higher level the stomach may
have trouble breaking down the foods we consume.
I am working to prove that disease comes from the same root cause-an
increase of the pH of the gut, which can cause a massive overload of
undigested food to build up in the intestines, eventually turning into
putrefied acid waste (toxins). The body would then have no choice but to
store this acid waste in its own tissues and stored fat, thus creating a
more friendly environment for disease.
I want to prove that the countless names attached to illnesses do not really
matter. What does matter is that they all come from the same root cause- too
much tissue acid waste in the body!
What is H+Plus Hydrogen Concentrate?
During the past year, I have found a simple and stable source of the
Hydrogen Proton. An American scientist has developed an electrically-charged
water concentrate, a stabilized form of carbonic acid. This water is similar
to the ionized acid water made by the water ionizer machines. I have applied
a special "patent pending" process to produce H+Plus Hydrogen Beverage
Concentrate.
One ounce of this product, added to 8 ounces of water, will produce a
beverage that provides the Hydrogen proton Dr. Volkov recommends. According
to Dr. Volkov, one glass a day will clean the systems throughout the body.
He believes that carbonic acid is the premiere hydrogen donor. Although many
people, such as Dr. Baroody, believe that people should drink alkaline water
in order for the body to maintain its natural pH balance, Dr. Volkov asserts
that it is the proton that balances the pH level of the gut. In this way,
our body is able once again to efficiently digest food, thus allowing our
body to eliminate its waste, which prevents acid build-up from occurring.
Dr. Volkov further suggests that the proton H+ water should be used for a
period of time, and then stopped for a short period to bring the body in
balance. I am presently drinking the water for three weeks, with a one week
break. Due to the lack of current data, it is recommended that the Beverage
not be consumed by pregnant or nursing mothers or during times of severe
illness.
For thousands of years, vinegar has been used to aide digestion. In Apple
Cider Vinegar - Miracle Health System, Patricia Bragg states the secret of
health lies in internal cleanliness. She states "Apple Cider Vinegar is a
powerful cleansing and healing elixir for a healthier, stronger, longer
life!" H+Plus Beverage Concentrate provides the acidity found in vinegar,
but tastes like water, and is easy to drink.
It has often been found to be the case in science that the simplest
explanations and theories that account for the data are usually correct. I
believe that Dr. Volkov's theory and research findings could lead to an
impact upon our civilization that will be incalculable. A breakthrough of
this magnitude can often be discounted by others. Even Sigmund Freud
commented on the suppression of innovation by science, in these words:
"There are three steps in the history of a great discovery. First, its
opponents say that the discoverer is crazy; later that he is sane but that
his discovery is of no real importance; and last, that the discovery is
important but everybody has known it right along." Of course, "time will
tell" and it appears that time may well be on Dr. Volkov's side.
