Part startup confessional, part practical handbook: two Lisas, one mineral mission, and everything you need to set up Aurmina in your home without emailing our CEO at 2 a.m.
Orthography/language nerd here. I was so pleased to see you wrote Lisas as the plural of Lisa, but you then went and blew it big time by writing Bakos' as the plural of Bakos—it should be Bakoses—and Korys' as the plural of Kory (why the frigging apostrophes?!) 🤦♂️
Love your work in otherwise (apart from a number of other linguistic infelicities).
Thank you for answering my questions about RO water. You have simplified my process. Yes, my water does have a yellowish tint. Glad to know what causes this and that it is fine!! We are enjoying the Aurmina treated water!! You rock!
Hi. I did my first test on: my tap water, filtered water from my new fridge, and a bottle of purified water from my big box membership store. Approacing 72 hours, the MOST YELLOW is…
The purified water.
My tap water is better than storebought purified water.
The fridge filtered water is only slightly yellow.
I just received my first bottle of your product and I must say I’m disappointed in the way it was shipped and the state of the bottle received.
First of all, the bottle was shipped loose with no packing material in a box 4 - 5X the size of the plastic bottle. This bottle was knocked around like crazy. Furthermore, the label on the bottle appears to have water or product stains and tattering that happened before the bottle was placed in the box as the box itself did not appear liquid damaged.
And finally, the aluminum foil safety seal on the bottle was not entirely sealed and was already raised without any effort on my part.
Thus is not the quality that I would expect from a $150 product. Furthermore, this is not worthy of Dr. Kory’s name or reputation which he has earned up my to now.
I kindly need an addition to this FAQ to answer a question. I have Aurmina in hand and am deciding on an additional filtering setup with difficulty. How are these additional filters that remove resulting sediment not disrupting or removing the sulfated ionic mineral pre treatment? Some of these filters boast removal of chemicals and heavy metals so is it removing the Aurmina as well? Maybe it is related to size so is there a filter size that might be too small and should be avoided when filtering the Aurmina treated water?
I already have a gravity filter from a company called Waterdrop. Dr. Kory is calling for use of Ceramic candle filter should any filtering be required post Aurmina treatment. I ran an analysis with an AI model with attached FAQ and article from Dr. Kory to check compatibility for using my Carbon Filters. Bottomline "Impact on Minerals: Carbon Filters vs. Ceramic Candles Both types of filters are compatible with Aurmina-treated water and will not disrupt the ionic minerals or the structured/balanced state, as these are dissolved at a molecular level (far smaller than filter pores)." Ceramic candle filters are all that is required for final polishing. Both however appear to not alter the structured state or ionic minerals from Aurmina.
Distillers really are the best way, just saying. If anyone reading this knows anybody connected to anything related to WaterWise distillers in Florida, please ask them “What is the holdup in setting up an affiliate link?” We have been loyal customers for more than 30 years. I thought that would count for something.
100% agree with you on distilling your water. I am so excited to fina Aurmina bc it hasn’t changed our water routine at all. Distill + add minerals and drink. I hope you get your link soon!
Thanks, Dr Kory, for this detail on municipal and well water purification. However, I have an RO system for our drinking water. I am mainly interested in getting the minerals in the water we drink. When I mix Aurmina in my water and wait for 15 minutes, there is no sediment that I see. Do I need to filter it? If so, does a household strainer do the trick or is an elaborate system needed?
We have been using a Zerowater filter for years. After receiving our first bottle of Aurmina I excitedly added it to our filtered water. So far no precipitation after the first 12 hours. I assume Zerowater would be nearly the same as RO water?
Eager to order since packing big bottles traveling back from the CHD Conference in Austin last month wasn't feasible.
Reading today in the discussion about aluminum in the volcanic rock-- understand that in nature it is naturally bound.
Was curious if by chance you had connected with Christopher Exley (Imagine You Are an Aluminum Atom - also published by Skyhorse -- in 2020). I respect both of you so much!!
Then I saw this note. We readers who are glued to your writing and unexplained differences in thinking can be unsettling. Any help on this possible? (Sorry!) Two brilliant minds should be easy to resolve differing viewpoints.
Btw, Exley's comment style sometimes seems harsh to my way of thinking, so please understand I see that. In the off chance you might not be aware, he was doing research on using silica rich water from volcanic rock (Volvic, Fiji) to treat Alzheimer's patients with success.
This product looks wonderful and I have seen the list of things that it filters but could you please add the lab data information, ie the name of the lab/labs and their actual results. I know that for some of us this would be helpful to have this 3rd party in depth info. I know that Berkey and other water purification systems include this on their website for those of us looking for the actual numbers. Thank you in advance for this.
I think I need a definition for "supplementation"--if my cells will thank me for the addition of Aurmina to my drinking water, how is it not supplementation? Is this legal jargon? Just trying to get up to speed...
The amount of minerals in Aurmina-treated water, based on the certificate of analysis and the amount of minerals suggested per daily allowance, is far apart - but if you are seriously mineral-deficient, it could make a difference. In my practice, what I am seeing in terms of responses to a solution with identical composition but given at higher doses is nothing short of remarkable- will be publishing on that soon
It depends on what water you are talking about - anything that precipitates needs to be filtered. However, fun fact - NYC water stayed clear and did not precipitate! R.o and distiled generally does not need filtering either

Dr Kory, did you ever consider creating a video detailing the process of creating mineralized water with Aurmina?

I ordered one from Waterwise too based on the recommendation in Dr. Kory’s article. So far I love it
I ordered one and put your names in under “how did you hear about us”. Hoping that helps get their attention

Trying to purchase the family pack for Christmas, the discount code does not work. Help! stephusrey@gmail.com
wait - sorry - the discount only works on one bottle purchases- the discount on the family pack is greater than the cybermonday discount
Well, can’t blame a girl for trying 😂
Merry Christmas!
ok will have lisa contact you
Hi Dr Kory,
In your first few articles, you said the Aurmina treated water didn’t have to be filtered. Should I conclude that it’s not necessary but is best?
It depends on what water you are talking about - anything that precipitates needs to be filtered. However, fun fact - NYC water stayed clear and did not precipitate! R.o and distiled generally does not need filtering either
