Dr. Cade

Hey, you guys. I am Dr. Cade and I am sitting next to Coach Cason, and we've been trying to put together some videos in regards to the hurricane and helping people overcome. We are going to talk about water today. We're going to talk about the three biggest, most important things to pay attention to in water and just hoping that the water hydrates you and gives you life.

00;00;17;29 - 00;00;19;24

Dr. Cade

So shall we jump into them?

00;00;19;27 - 00;00;20;14

Coach Cason

Let's do it.

00;00;20;22 - 00;00;37;13

Dr. Cade

All right. So I think I'm going to take the first one. We're going to talk about filtration. We're going to talk briefly about pH and its importance. And then Cason is going to talk all about structure. So filtration, pH, and structure. And I don't know if you've gone down the water aisle at Whole Foods or you have tried to buy bottled water before and wherever it is that you're buying it.

00;00;38;01 - 00;00;53;22

Dr. Cade

A lot of people will talk about filtration. A lot of people will talk about pH, right? That has been having a bit of a moment here lately in the water world, but nobody talks about structure. So we're going to let Cason slam dunk that one. So filtration is a is a big one. No conversation about water should be left without filtration.

00;00;53;29 - 00;01;10;16

Dr. Cade

And so it's an important one. And we want to make sure that you're choosing the right one. And so it's not just important to filter your drinking water, but it's super important to make sure that your bath water and your shower water is cleansed as well. Why? You know, all of us are taking a hot bath or a hot shower.

00;01;10;16 - 00;01;33;10

Dr. Cade

What happens to our pores? They open up and we soak in all of the good. We soak in all of the bad. Now, I've never been able to find a source on this, so I want to make sure that I say that with a disclaimer. But I've heard from multiple sources and practitioners in the functional medicine world that I respect greatly is that when we take a hot shower, we absorb more of the chemicals through that hot shower than we do in a drinking a week's worth of tap water.

00;01;33;17 - 00;01;42;11

Dr. Cade

Does that make sense? That's pretty wild, isn't it? So that compares and contrast big time. How much we're really soaking through through our skin and what we're breathing and then hot shower. That's right. I was just going to say.

00;01;42;11 - 00;01;42;29

Coach Cason

Yeah, yeah.

00;01;43;16 - 00;01;59;21

Dr. Cade

Okay. So what filtration is really important? So pretty much the gold standard that's out there is reverse osmosis. Why is that the gold standard? It takes everything out and some sources will actually say that it's more of a dead water that you have at the end of that doesn't just take out the bad, it takes out all of the good as well.

00;01;59;26 - 00;02;23;24

Dr. Cade

All of the minerals that are in the water, all of that, like the salt, the potassium, the magnesium, the blend that's in that water, it takes it out along with all the chemicals, the pesticides, the glyphosate, the roundup, right? All of the junk it takes out. So if you're going to do R.O., which again, we think is pretty much the gold standard as far as the level of filtration, you have to make sure that you're coming back through when you're balancing that water out with the pH, with the minerals, it's very, very important to do that.

00;02;24;03 - 00;02;43;03

Dr. Cade

And so that would be R.O., that would be pretty much the gold standard. Anything below that is going to be more of like a charcoal, kind of like a mixed media where you're taking out - they'll usually say like 98, 99, 99.9% of the garbage that's out there. The thing that charcoal filter doesn't do, which is typically the one that you're going to find in your fridge, is going to be fluoride.

00;02;43;03 - 00;03;00;07

Dr. Cade

It will not pull fluoride out. So if you're interested, if you're on city water and you want to pull out fluoride, it's important. You're going to have to take a couple of extra steps and a couple extra measures to do that. Right? And then if you want to go any further, if you're on well, if you're on city, whatever the case is, it's always important you can buy a water test that's out there.

00;03;00;13 - 00;03;16;25

Dr. Cade

There's a great website that also makes filters, but they also sell tests. It's called Vitasalus, vitasalus.net and you can buy a couple of different, more in-depth than you're going to get from like a Home Depot here that you can test the quality of the water. And. Yeah, all right. I think that's filtration. Anything else we need to touch on there?

00;03;17;01 - 00;03;18;21

Coach Cason

No, man, I'm always learning something from you.

00;03;18;24 - 00;03;39;03

Dr. Cade

It's it's fun, isn't it? It's fun. All right. So let's talk about pH really quick, pH is super important. And it's important that we have a balance pH. So a balance page on that scale from alkalinity to acidity is is about seven. And that's what we're looking for with our water. Now, the interesting part, there are certain foods and there are certain drinks that we can get, like soda that's going to be really acidic.

00;03;39;11 - 00;03;49;03

Dr. Cade

And then on the flip side, things like if we go down the aisle and we look at bottled water like from Fiji or something like that, or I always forget the red and black one. What's the red and black label?

00;03;49;13 - 00;03;51;17

Coach Cason

That has a it's got high pH.

00;03;51;17 - 00;03;57;13

Dr. Cade

High pH. We should have been prepared for this video. But if you see a red and black bottle in the water aisle...

00;03;57;13 - 00;03;58;15

Coach Cason

It’s square, it's a square bottle.

00;03;58;16 - 00;04;00;10

Dr. Cade

It is Essentia.

00;04;00;12 - 00;04;00;28

Coach Cason

Essentia! Yeah, that's it.

00;04;00;28 - 00;04;07;09

Dr. Cade

So they talk about like a like a like a 10 pH or an 11 pH and that is, is it that high?

00;04;07;09 - 00;04;08;11

Coach Cason

9 pH? I don't know if you can drink that.

00;04;08;11 - 00;04;25;01

Dr. Cade

I don't think you can drink that either. I'm glad we're talking out loud in this video. Yeah, but those types of pH, those waters, again, had a big moment, right? And as far as you know, most time people talk about acidity, disease, cancer existing in a acidic state. And so we're using water to try to balance that out on the other end of the spectrum.

00;04;25;01 - 00;04;41;25

Dr. Cade

Well, that can create some of its own problems, too, when we're using water on that high of a spectrum. Why the acidity of our stomach acid is meant to be really low. It doesn't match and it can create some indigestion issues and some further gut issues down the track. And so watch the water acidity, watch the water alkalinity.

00;04;41;25 - 00;04;59;23

Dr. Cade

We're looking for a balance. And how do you check? Just go buy some cheap pH test strips on Amazon or at your local health food store. It's a great way. And how is that helping you? You can always use that same pH strip to test your pH, right? Whether that's with saliva or urine. And we should have different measurements and different ballparks that we should be in there.

00;05;00;10 - 00;05;01;15

Dr. Cade

Anything else we should say about pH?

00;05;01;26 - 00;05;03;00

Coach Cason

It gets down a hole...

00;05;03;07 - 00;05;16;29

Dr. Cade

It does, it’s a big conversation now, but have fun with it. Those pH test strips are super cheap and you go as far as you want with it, but it's a fun experiment. You know, most of home school kids groups that I've been to that are presenting stuff and those kids get a little bit older. That's a pretty common one.

00;05;16;29 - 00;05;26;15

Dr. Cade

It's cool. It's very cool. So last one. We're going to tee you up and I'm going to shut up here for a second is structure. This is a big topic and one that most people don't know about where do you want to start?

00;05;26;27 - 00;05;48;28

Coach Cason

Well, I think with the pH, that's a good segue into structured water because it shows that water has a charge to it. Yeah. And so this is this is living water or charged water, structured water. And I guess the best way to start would be there is a guy, Masaru Emoto. Sorry if I -

00;05;48;28 - 00;05;49;19

Dr. Cade

Say that ten times fast.

00;05;49;28 - 00;05;55;24

Coach Cason

Messed up the first name, but Emoto is how I say it. He he did these amazing studies and he wrote a book, right?

00;05;55;25 - 00;05;58;25

Dr. Cade

Yeah, there's a book and I think there's a documentary or at least some YouTube videos.

00;05;58;25 - 00;06;19;10

Coach Cason

Out there, all kinds of stuff. It's it's fascinating, but yeah. And Cade cut me off if I missed any of this up, but he went around to different places across the globe and collected water. And so like the Vatican, he collected holy water from the sewers of, I think, Paris, France. He collected water and he took this water, all different samples.

00;06;19;10 - 00;06;37;16

Coach Cason

And he froze it and he magnified it or looked at it through a magnifying glass. And so he saw that these cleaner, pure water sources, you know, from streams in the Vatican and these these places that would be more pure, had a beautiful, more structured and.

00;06;37;24 - 00;06;38;16

Dr. Cade

Symmetrical.

00;06;38;16 - 00;07;10;13

Coach Cason

Symmetrical image, and then dirtier water would be like not as appealing to the eye and not as symmetrical. So then he also then took the test further, right? And he he would have people sing to water happy songs. Sing happy songs to water. He had people say affirmations, positive affirmations to the water and then vice versa, you know, hard metal, like more like, I don't know, yucky songs, I guess you would say it and then saying mean things to the water.

00;07;10;13 - 00;07;18;17

Coach Cason

And he did the same thing. He he froze the water and then he captured the water with a photograph and and then looked at those samples.

00;07;18;17 - 00;07;21;28

Dr. Cade

Just puts a smile on my face here. Hearing you talk about this. It's amazing. It is. Yeah.

00;07;21;28 - 00;07;40;29

Coach Cason

And so he's found the same thing. The happy blessed water or loving energy water. The happy song water image was beautiful. It was structured. It was it was like holographic kind of like kaleidoscope like and, you know, like snowflakes, you know, that you see.

00;07;41;08 - 00;07;59;10

Dr. Cade

They say, no, two snowflakes are the same. Right? Right. So it's interesting how you know that intention, you know, whether it was a blessing or a prayer or a curse word. Right. Or something, something derogatory, right? Would change how that water form I mean, it's amazing to think about that. But what does that mean?

00;07;59;11 - 00;08;00;24

Dr. Cade

Take that what does that mean to the people that are listening?

00;08;00;24 - 00;08;14;12

Coach Cason

Yeah, well, I mean, it means this goes this goes really deep. I mean, we could go on for hours, but the point is, water has a consciousness. Water has memory - water, we are water, what, 70% water?

00;08;14;12 - 00;08;15;03

Dr. Cade

I think even more.

00;08;15;16 - 00;08;34;09

Coach Cason

Maybe even more like every thing is water. Water runs the show here. If you you know, you could go for a while without eating, but you can't go that long without drinking water. It's true. So we needed it runs our cells. It's how our minerals are made and put into the cell. It's how our muscles work.

00;08;34;09 - 00;08;45;29

Coach Cason

It's everything. So the structure of this water or the the quality of this water, how blessed this water is, how love this water is, how pure this water is, has everything to do with our health.

00;08;45;29 - 00;08;47;23

Dr. Cade

Amazing. Amazing.

00;08;47;23 - 00;09;15;22

Coach Cason

So, I mean, this goes this goes. Just look up structured water and read up on Emoto’s experiments. And there's a guy named Gerald Pollack. He talks about the fourth phase of water. There's actually, you know, another phase of water besides solid, liquid, and gas, which is mind blowing in itself. But yeah, water has memory. We can do a lot with water and our intentions to it.

00;09;16;02 - 00;09;36;25

Coach Cason

You know, I've heard Dr. Cade tell patients to bless their water before they drink it because that obviously now, you know, with a Emoto’s studies mean something. And I think we've known this for millennia because, you know, there's something called holy water. You know, in churches, it's in all kinds of churches and baptisms. You know, and all these things that water is used for.

00;09;36;26 - 00;09;54;01

Dr. Cade

Well, look at the great lengths that, you know, our current civilization and past civilizations have gone to, to maintain fresh water and quality of water, right? And now it's so simple. I mean, we turn the tap and we're so disconnected from that source and the health of that water. But this is a great way at least to have some control over that.

00;09;54;01 - 00;10;10;29

Dr. Cade

If you can't filter it, you can't do anything about the pH, we all know that you can say a compliment or you can sing or you can hum or you can bless that water, right? And it may seem silly, but I think we're both sold that if you do look into this further, it's mind blowing. And I remember years ago, you remember the TV show, Mythbusters?

00;10;10;29 - 00;10;26;29

Dr. Cade

Yeah. You know, they were doing something with microwaving water and not microwaving water or microwaving water and then and heating it up on the stove. And there was a change in that because the energy is different, right? They also did an experiment with plants as far as blessing plants and cursing at plants. And there was a huge difference in the growth.

00;10;27;07 - 00;10;47;01

Dr. Cade

And so I just wonder, you know, if we're around people that lift us up, we all know how we feel when we find our tribe, if you will, or around people that encourage us. And we all know how we feel or around somebody who is verbally abusive or negative or dealing with a trauma. We pick up on those things and I just wonder how much of a - where water is in that connection there, right?

00;10;47;06 - 00;11;12;23

Coach Cason

We are water. So what can we do to our own water of our body into other people's water of their body, that they are, you know? The one thing that you know, the whole point here, I think that I'm trying to make is that stuff, toxins affect our water. You know, we didn't even get into plastics and water being into plastic or being in plastic and what that does to the water.

00;11;12;23 - 00;11;26;29

Coach Cason

But these toxins affect our water. So we need to do our best to get the purest and cleanest and most structured loved water that we can get, whether it's showering in it, drinking it, or I don't know what else you can do with water?

00;11;27;15 - 00;11;29;29

Dr. Cade

Dancing in it?

00;11;29;29 - 00;11;32;03

Coach Cason

Yeah. So yeah, I think that’s it.

00;11;32;05 - 00;11;46;14

Dr. Cade

Good place to leave it there. So if you've got more questions on water, you can always reach out to us. But again, the three big ones are going to be filtration, pH, and structure. Lots of fun things that you can dig into there. And if you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us. So thanks for listening to us, Coach Cason, you're awesome.

00;11;46;14 - 00;11;49;05

Dr. Cade

Thank you, buddy. Looking forward to seeing you guys soon.
