Not all H2O is created equal

I went for a relaxing massage the day before my surgery last week and the therapist explained to me how Water (tap and most bottled) can be modified and the molecules are too big for the cells in our body to absorb (you get the bloated feeling instead), and she suggested that I drink FUJI water because it might be so much better for me (until I get my home water tested...)

Now I don't know if this is a bunch of hokum, but I've been splurging on the FUJI and it slides down nice and smooth. Got in 88 oz. today and only 5 days post op.

Of course I will not keep spending that kind of $ on water, but I will look into a system or source that has the same effect.

Any peeps knowledgeable on this topic?

  • Y'all are missing out. Here in New Mexico we get plenty of arsenic in our water lol. We've been over the recommended limits for years.

  • Actually she's right in a sense.. The surface tension on plain water is pretty high. That's why most people end up drinking water with a couple of drops of mio or something. As far as Fuji water? I do

I have a mountain spring water fountain installed in my house, and that along with FIJI water is the only water I drink.
