I've always been interested in the possible application of flow forms with
CS production.

Regarding structured water, either extreme pressure, temperature,
electromagnetic influence, or scalar waves would be required to attempt
structure the water. Bob Berger documented numerous instances where the
viscosity of the end sol was changed via the HVAC brewing method; the famed
"wetter water" scenario.  I was not greatly impressed with the particle
dispersion in such a brew, however; it was obvious, however, that
crystalline structures were forming in the water.

My comments regarding the low-ppm are dependant upon product quality.  With
the 3/4 nines, without any sort of current limiting, when you approach
10PPM+ the brew really begins to degrade.

I have never seen any evidence of a product greater than 15 PPM produced via
home brewing working more effectively than high quality, lower PPM product.
At this point, we'd be dealing only with the idea of titration in the body.
If you have to pump up the PPM to be effective, you're going back in time.
If you're pumping up the PPM with refined brewing methods, that's something
entirely different.

I wouldn't believe that a 40 PPM home brewed CS is more effective, and I've
viewed enough comparison time kill studies to get a pretty good idea of
effectivness ranges.  Higher PPM is better, provided that the end product
quality is not sacrificed.  Why not drink more "CS water", perhaps even
modify the PH of the end sol to have an alkalizing effect on the body at the
same time.  You'll be assisting the body's elimination system and improving
the potential for cell hydration at the same time.  In my book, it's a wiser
strategy.

I agree that degraded electrodes negatively influence CS production, which
is why I'm personally fanatical about cleaning electrodes after each and
every use.  I actually polish them, if I am able to do so.

Best Regards,

Jason
