Hi All,
To help rid your body of toxins, Edgar Cayce suggested drinking half a
glass of warm water every morning. Recently, I noticed that every time I
drank warm tap water, I would sneeze several times about ten minutes
later. Finally, I asked myself why that should be. Was there a
connection between my drinking the water and then sneezing? One of the
cardial signs of an allergic reaction is sneezing. Could I be allergic
to water? Or, more likely, could I be allergic to some contaminate in
the water?
To investigate further, I performed this experiment on three consecutive
mornings:
Day 1: drink the warm tap water as usual
Day 2: drink warm filtered water
Day 3: drink warm distilled water
Drinking the warm tap water elicited the usual sneezing reaction.
Drinking the warm filtered water caused only one sneeze. Drinking the
warm distilled water elicited no sneezing at all.
About a year ago, I switched from distilled to filtered water because it
was cheaper and more convenient. I used the well-known BRITA filtration
system that I purchased from a local supermarket. Perhaps if I were to
employ a better filtration system, the problem would be alleviated. In
any case, I have now returned to drinking distilled water.
I also notice that I sneeze after taking a long shower, and I am now
considering buying a shower filter (not to mention reducing the number
of showers I take).
We do indeed live in a toxic environment!
All the best,
Dudley Delany
