Caveman's Water vs. Your Water It could be a key to Diabetes

"Based on the research and information I have on November 05, the following makes sense to me," Harlan Jacobsen Copyright © 2005

Chlorine in City Water, antibiotics, and some pain pills regularly kill off billions of friendly "gut" bacteria. These bacteria alive and working in your "gut" are essential to help you digest dairy products, synthesis the B vitamins, vitamin K, and as well as increase your absorption of calcium, magnesium, copper and iron.

It occurred to me that if that was harming the fish to death, what was it doing to me?

Researched it a little and found out that the chlorine in city water killed the bacteria in my digestive system.

This live friendly bacteria in your digestive system is important and the culture actually manufactures B vitamins etc that you do not get the benefit of when the bacteria is killed.

I knew I was eating yogurt to replenish and encourage the right kind of bacteria in the digestive system.

So years ago I developed the habit of filling glasses of water on the dresser of tap water and letting them sit several hours before drinking. (you could also use an uncovered pan in the frig you know).

The formula now that yogurt is almost off my diet I put five glasses of water on the kitchen window ledge over the sink, five on my bedroom dresser and five at work.

Drink the right hand one, refill it and set it on the left.

On the road I use bottled water and bring home the empties. Fill them with tap water and let them sit 24 hours with no lid. Pop them in the fridge and they are ready for the next trip.

Some buy distilled water etc. I believe city water has a few bad things in it that I can tolerate and has a lot of good local minerals in the water that I need.

Caveman drank all those absorbed in the water minerals. Some longevity communities credit the minerals in local water.

So if I can get rid of the chlorine easily it should not be a problem to continue city water..

25 years of chlorine laced water killing your digestive bacteria and killing the manufacture of certain digestive produced vitamins could have contributed to the onset of yours and my diabetes.

Who knows,..... I want to take off the table all "possibility contributors" that cave man did not have to contend with in my quest to make it easy for my caveman designed body to get back to normal.

Therefore if it makes sense to go the caveman diet, it certainly makes sense to go to the use of caveman water.

Note: fluoride is also added to some city water supplies. However, fluoride occurs naturally in some areas of the US and appears in water naturally so I would not be as concerned about fluoride.
