Well of course you are not going to see any effect if you don't wash them down with oxygenated water, make sure you get it in the glass bottles so the oxygen doesn't leak out. http://www.hiosilver.com/
I went to Santa Monica a few months and forgot to bring my deodorant. Only place within walking distance I quickly found was some hippie health food grocery store. So I buy this over priced "organic" deodorant. It says "all natural" on the front of it. Well that "all natural organic" deodorant gave me severe chemical burns under my arms so bad I could not put on any deodorant for over a week. No wonder hippies all have B.O. and don't wear deodorant. Their deodorant burns you. I don't blame them for stinking now.
Awful? I've been using that "rock/crystal thing" for probably 15 years and it works perfectly. For $8 it lasts about 2 years. Makes more sense than spending $5 every couple of months. It's basically a chunk of rock salt. Works as advertised IMO, and I've made converts out of more than a few people...
Of course the molecular makeup isn't any different. It's the extra chemicals that you avoid with organic produce. I really enjoy fruits and vegetables more without Agent Orange. Go ahead and eat stuff that has been sprayed and sucked up pesticides through their roots. Next time you bite into a nice stalk of celery, remember the experiment you did in first grade when the teacher put a stalk in a glass of colored water. Want to lower your risk of cancer? Think about it.
+1 My gf has got me into eating organic and i feel a lot better eating it. The food tastes different. Next time any of you are out go buy a granny smith apple at somewhere like Shop Rite then go get the same apple at Whole Foods. Its amazing how different they look, feel and taste
Gimmicky buzzwords All foods that come from plants and animals are "organic" regardless what you do to them.
Me too. I suck at cardio at the moment. I did a 1.5 bike ride today and it killed me What does that have to do with it?
Anyone seen the Penn & Teller show Bullsh*t about organic foods Watch from 2:45 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aI3nlo7sQDk Last part: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JX9Z4nkSMBE&feature=related - gets interesting at 5:30 with the hippies.
Don't get me started. My grandmother raised food and used pesticides and she is 93 and she doesn't like organic food because it doesn't look "natural". So what does that tell you?
You are probably right. I'll bet you are not as old as I am, either. I would not be so sure that you could outrun me if we were "back in the day." Don't buy organic. I'm for personal liberty, which means I think you can eat whatever you like. But with that goes the responsibility for your own health care bills. I hope that I'm wrong, but I think that we have seen an increase in childhood cancer because of the chemicals added to our food while it is being grown and during processing. Ingesting animals that have been pumped full of steroids to make them grow faster and bigger cannot be a good thing. There are studies going on right now, but we are starting to see that children raised on non-organic foods are maturing faster and growing larger than those who are raised on organic foods. Depends on your perspective whether you think that's good or not.
I had an aunt who literally lived on coffee and cigarettes until she was 85. What does that tell you? Essentially nothing.
The point is I am annoyed it when people talk about how this or that is good for you when they are in bad shape. Like a meal of organic whatever will make you be able to run 3 miles in 18 minutes or cure your love handles. It is as if people believe that eating this or that in a slightly different form will make turn them in to a healthy person. My aunt did it all the time and it drove me nuts. And she died of clogged arteries despite her "healthy organic" diet. Personally I see "organic" on a label as a way to charge you more and not much else. No one in Ethiopia gives a crap about "organic;" food is welcome no matter how it is made. We in the 1st world never see that perspective. If the food commonly, non-organic grown was so bad I would think the cancer ect rate in the US would be 1000% higher than it is. (I actually dont know how good a shape they are in.)
Same here - I've been using the same 6 Dollar stick of Alum for 3 years & guesstimate it has another couple of years left. Treat it right, it does the same for you. **Sniffs underarm after 8 hours of *hustle and bustle* - Aaaaaah, freshness!***
I eat organic food, meaning food containing Carbon, lol. You can't live off of inorganic food (rocks/salt) very long. Btw, we are all going to get cancer at some point with all the air pollution today and being surrounded by objects emitting electromagnetic radiation. Who gives a ****?
That hoestly doesn't have anything to do with it. I'm getting into shape and i still will eat organic. How did you know what shape i was in anyway before i made that post? When did i say that? Eating organic contributes to long run health. I never said that if i eat organic it burns fat or something I'd rather eat organic and know i'm not putting chemicals in my body, whether they are harmful or not
Like I said, I believe in personal responsibility. Eat whatever you want. Eat as much processed food as you can stand. Spray some Raid on your salad before you eat it just to kill any bugs that might be left on the leaves. We will find out in the end who was right. I have to say that I don't know too many obese people who take the trouble to buy organic food. They mostly eat at the Golden Arches and out of boxes. No one said that eating organic food would make you lose weight or cure cancer, but it sure might keep you from gaining weight or getting cancer. No one can say that ingesting pesticides has a beneficial impact on one's health. If I was a starving child in Africa, I'd eat whatever garbage I could lay my hands on, but then again, my life expectancy wouldn't be 78 years, either.
Alum? That is what that thing is? Gentlemen, if it is a Alum block then it is a rock of the active ingredient in antiperspirants. (Aluminum sulfate) No wonder it works well. I bet you are getting a massive dose!
No, it's not Alum. Like I said above, it's basically a rock of salt. The one I have says "Natural Mineral Salts". I see others that say that and Ammonium Alum. The one I use does not claim to be an antiperspirant - it's a deodorant. I assume the ones that contain Ammonium Alum are also antiperspirants. Either way, none of this changes the fact that they work fine.
