Spring water

Hi Elaine,

As i read more and more in this forum, the more knowledge i gain. With grave disease, we are encouraged to use things that are as natural and pure as possible. I have recently change my table salt to sea salt. I am drinking spring water everyday. I saw our local grocery stall carrying distilled water, spring water and drinking water. Is distilled water a better choice to spring water? I do not know how pure is the source of this spring water.

I also want to check with you regarding fluoride in our toothpaste. Would you recommend changing to one that do not contain fluoride.

Re: Spring water

Hi,

The minerals in spring water are usually beneficial although you'd want to avoid water that contains fluoride. Distilled water would deprive you of needed minerals. We use it in the lab where minerals can cause interferences, and I used to use it in my iron back when I actually ironed. My husband uses it in batteries.

You can skip the fluoride in toothpaste. Natural products like Tom of Maine's are good. Sounds like you're on a good path to healing. Best, Elaine
