Ken:

The best method to address this concern is ozonating foods with at least 3% or preferably 5% ozone.

EIS will not necessarily work; it can work for the food surfaces, but only food surfaces.

I've studied the works of a doctor in Tawain who has his patients on at least a 35% raw food diet. He insists his patients use ozonation for the raw foods.

Furthermore, and however, he noticed a distinct difference in microbial control between different food ozonators. The ozone must be pumped through a diffuser that allows the ozone to disperse throughout the water-filled container; the container should also allow enough "hang time" for the ozone to work... both the O3 molecule, and the siglet atom of oxygen ( O- ) that is released.... a container that allows water depth to be about 10-12 inches. Then, a "cover" should be used which keeps the foods/vegetables below the water line. The cover should have "air-venting" holes drilled throughout so that the bubbling air/gas can escape.

Foods should be ozonated for between 20-30 minutes in this manner.

These devices are more accepted for general use, and probably more readily available, then in the US.

However, most will need your modification in order to meet the specs above. The small diffuser is not enough to cover the surface area of a container you'd use to ozonate food, so you'd have to find or make a wide-face diffuser, as well as your own vessel to ozonate foods, with a lid that fits into the container.

Best Regards,

Jason

Hello all,
I've accepted a position in Beijing and my internet research of China in general has revealed that it is highly recommended to NOT eat raw any un-peeled fruits or veggies in China. The basis for this warning is due to the Chinese (and other Asians) using "night soil" (human manure) to fertilize their crops. I'm vegetarian, eating about 85% of my foods raw. The thought of returning to a mostly cooked food diet does not appeal to me and I would like to avoid that if possible. It has been suggested to me that I should soak the fruit/veggies in a VERY WEAK solution of bleach and then rinse them off before eating. My brother, who was stationed in Korea in the military, says this is what they were instructed to do prior to eating raw produce. Does anyone know if substituting EIS for the weak bleach solution would be just as effective in sanitizing the raw produce of all harmful microbes/parasites? Ken
