"A spoon full of DE should last several years if it is not poured off in the water."
Will the water contaminate if it is not thrown away for years? I am a little bit concerned about this.
Contaminate with what? The water is constantly being cycled as you drink the DE saturated water and refill the container with more water. The new water dissolves a little more of the DE and the cycle continues.
Perhaps the poster meant bacterial or fungal growth in the water container, this can happen, which is why I was out my water container pretty regularly, and replace the DE at the same time.
I don't use a sterile container, and I don't sterilise the water, so bacterial or fungal growth is always a possibility.
Yes, all water is prone to bacterial contamination, even ultrapure waters such as type 1 water. Another good reason to maintain stomach acid and the immune system. For the vast majority of people though the bacteria present in the water is not going to be an issue as we have built up an immunity to so many bacteria commonly present in our waters and foods.
Mold and fungi growth is not an issue though unless there is organic matter present for these to feed on. The only time I got mold growth in my water container was when I added some lemon juice to help acidify the water for better silica to orthosilicic acid conversion.
Whoa, James, the new website layout design is 'stylin'!!!
Thanks Marci, I will let my business partner know. She is the one who designed it and maintains it. She will be happy to hear that.
Still can't order via Paypal or Shopping Cart tho?
No, not yet. We were planning to put it up when the capsules arrived and the new website was complete. But the manufacturer still has not finished the capsules. They were supposed to be finished back in the beginning of January.
Anyway, we do not have a Paypal button, but we have had a number of people paying that way, especially overseas customers. All I need is name, address and what someone wants to order and they can send payment to my Paypal account when their order is shipped. Orders can be e-mailed if you want.
