Another thing to point out to the "stuff is only for rich people" comment.....

Use distilled or RO water & a bottle of Aurmina treats TWICE as much water.

Per instructions on bottle, 1/2-1 tsp per gallon for distilled or RO water, vs 1-2 tsp for tap or other water.

My distiller uses ~4kw (50¢) electric takes 6 hrs to make a gallon, so I'll be looking for a RO unit.

Contact time for tap water, 24-72 hrs then decant.

Distilled or RO says, 5-15 min, so I'm assuming no decanting necessary.

If this is true, this is the process I plan to execute; no multiple containers taking up counter space, no decanting so 100% water utilization, no filter cleaning, just a small countertop or undersink RO unit.

Like to hear thoughts on above strategy.

What if we wanted to use it in our garden soil? Prep the gallon and water the soil a gallon at a time or can we add directly to the soil?

I get the cost breakdown seems reasonable, $12/month per person, but a $150 minimum purchase is still incredibly out of reach for me and many others, especially for trying something we've never tried before.

Why can't there be a smaller sized option to buy? A one or even two months supply for two people? $60 for a 2 month supply for 2 people or even $40 for a one months supply for 2 people (or 2 months for one person), would be something I was willing to try. For those of us that live "paycheck to paycheck" we simply cannot justify speinging the $150.

Dearest Dr. Kory,

As you fought back tears and struggled to hold your composure while pleading with the NIH to simply review the evidence your group had already submitted, your intention became unmistakably clear. You were speaking for those we had already lost, and for those who - if protocols remained unchanged - were destined for an early grave.

Your impassioned testimony revealed the man behind the M.D. and the white coat: a physician driven not by politics or position, but by honor, compassion, and the calling to heal.

That said, I also know that every human being is vulnerable to corruption under the right -or wrong- circumstances. Even the most principled can be led down destructive paths. Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely. Because you understand this truth, you drew a line in the sand. It was a worthy and noble standard while you held it. But life changes, conditions shift, and we must adapt.

Your willingness to be transparent as you navigate those changes is what continues to earn my trust in the sincerity of your intentions.

Thank you. I, along with countless others around the world, am indebted to you. You are deeply loved and profoundly appreciated.

With respect and gratitude,

Marta Nelson

Pierre — your piece hits on something that anyone who works with real, unadulterated sources of minerals has known for a long time: the mineral collapse you’re describing isn’t theoretical, it’s visible. It’s measurable. And it’s absolutely impacting physiology in ways most people don’t have the framework to recognize.

I work with seaweed — one of the last truly intact mineral powerhouses left on the planet, because it pulls directly from ocean water instead of depleted soil. When you see the full mineral spectrum in raw macroalgae and how bioavailable those elements are to the human body, it becomes painfully obvious how starved modern systems have become. What you’re describing with volcanic minerals is the same story from a different geological angle.

And yes — anything that actually restores mineral balance gets censored, distorted, or dismissed. I’ve watched seaweed get written off as “just iodine,” as if the entire periodic table embedded in a living matrix didn’t exist. The pattern you encountered with Adya Clarity happens to anyone who tries to bring forward an elemental solution that isn’t owned, patented, or controlled by a major industrial entity. Nature-based mineral medicine is always a threat to somebody’s bottom line.

Your transparency here matters. People can tell the difference between someone selling a trend and someone who reluctantly steps into the business side because the science demands it. You’re not selling a gimmick — you’re trying to reintroduce something the modern world quietly deleted. That’s an uncomfortable position, but also an important one.

The more voices willing to talk honestly about the mineral collapse — from soil, to water, to human biology — the better. The more people understand that minerals are not supplements but infrastructure, the less “weird” conversations like this will feel.

Appreciate the clarity, the honesty, and the willingness to wade into a space most clinicians avoid because it’s messy. Somebody has to say it out loud.

I love the book and need to reread the more technical chapters to completely understand the material. The concepts make sense, but I do have a question. There appears to be no question about the behavior of EZ water when adjacent to a hydrophilic material. In fact even scientists who are opponents of the concepts in your book agree with that. Scientists such as Timothy Schmidt argue that the phenomena can be explained by conventional physics and chemistry and not by a new phase of water. Timothy Schmidt has also stated that there is no known technology today that can verify that EZ water is H3O2. He also stated that if the water truly was H3O2, that hydrogen would be released in the process and that is not happening. So it comes down to how one decides to interpret the behavior. Can you shed some light on this.

I’d also greatly appreciate more clarification….A bit confused about whether you recommend R/O water with Aurmina or the other filtration system you show on your counter. ( which living in a NYC apartment is quite daunting Re counter space)

If R/O ( which I started using a few months ago) strips the minerals… and if used, do you put the Aurmina in before or after you filter it

I assumed afterwards but thought I read before and am generally a bit unclear 🤷🏻‍♀️

So I look forward to your next article on it.

Thank you for the invaluable research you are continuously bringing out …. I also have followed you since a friend sent me your Senate testimony.

Hearing that testimony as I was deciding to vax or not was the beginning of a rabbit hole I have not emerged from since …

If Aurmina chelates caffeine, acetaminofen, ibuprofen, etc, does that mean you shouldn't use the structured water in nyour coffee or when taking a tablet?

Dear Dr. Kory,

Here is my opinion. Your product is indeed priced affordably. As I mentioned to Lisa (your wife?), the problem for Europeans is the shipping cost ($28), plus potential taxes and customs fees (probably $40). In the end, we pay $200 for a product that costs $132. So why not offer your product to iHerb, which ships for free and without customs fees or taxes in Europe for any order of $40 or more? Admittedly, this would reduce your profit margin, but don't you think it would be worth it for such a useful (even essential) product, and therefore much more accessible to those less fortunate? Thank you for your work and your attention. Sincerely, Philippe Lasbats.

I just wanted to thank you for your work, dedication, ethics, the degree you care, for speaking up, and for making this product and making it accessible. I’m a RN and was disabled suffering a brain injury from a shot a decade ago, ending my beloved dream career working with children with medically complex disabilities. I’ve spent a decade trying to not die and then trying desperately to heal to be able once again to adequately, or even at all just care for my family and be part of it. I was bedridden, alone most of the day needing a nurse myself but not having that support, peeing in mason jars for my Husband to dump out when he got home from work at the end of the day, not even being able to walk to the bathroom the next room over at the sickest. Out of desperation and relentless research to find a way to heal, I eventually was led to “alternative” therapies (ozone, light/frequency therapy, and recently thanks to you and a couple other doctors who truly care learned about structured water, how powerful structured water in our bodies is for healing and normal God intended functioning. It’s all given me my life back and allowed me to now help others still struggling in the abyss of deep, indescribable depths of sufferings, accumulatively more than I had seen in my 17 years working on a locked psychiatric and addictions unit, hospice, etc. There always seems to be an abundance in these days of criticism and corruption, I just wanted to thank you for what you’re doing and all that you and your Wife have done. Structured water (& oxidative & light/frequency therapy) have changed and saved my life, and I will share it with everyone I know and cross paths with in the future. You are a brave warrior and I admire you & your Wife.

Dr. Kory,

We treat RO water with Aurmina. Could you address these points for me?

1. Per the instructions using a teaspoon of Aurmina in a gallon of RO water and waiting 15 minutes, the water is as clear after as before. There is NO sediment of any kind.

Is this normal? Does the water still have to be filtered before drinking?

2. Should the added tap water bring the RO water up to a full gallon, or added to the full gallon?

3. To my knowledge coffee filters are made from recycled paper. That means lots of forever chemicals and endocrine disruptors like what is on cash register receipts (a big part of the recycled paper industry). Do you know of paper coffee filters that don't use recycled paper?

Thank you.

1) NORMAL

2) If clear, you don't have to add tap water!

3) Since your water is clear, you don't need a filter!

Hope this helps

I am grateful for this and all you have done! Your post was timely for us since we recently added a softener & whole house sediment filter to our city water, but declined RO and have bottled spring water delivered instead. I knew that RO would have to be augmented with minerals to be healthful, and would waste a lot of water. It sounds like we could now treat our tap water, then use it after 48 hours - and get rid of the delivery except we go thru a lot of drinking water! That sounds like a whole lot of logistics & space when you add in the post-treatment filtration & leaves me wondering if we would be better off just treating the spring water 5-15 minutes early?

Spring water is not addressed on your site,and is called out separately on Jeffrey’s site but I don’t think he clarified if it works fast or still needs 2 days?

My preference would be to have an inline process for adding it - but the treatment time is still a sticking point! I am brainstorming!

Having a reservoir of safe drinking water in the house would be a plus for us and anyone really - especially on public water supply. Maybe there’s a smart way…needs to be semi-portable for renters too.

I found a typo on your Aurmina site - under Unlimited Shelf Life - should be “as directed” vs “…stored as directly”.

Thank you Dr Kory!

I’m really grateful to know about these ionic sulfated minerals.

I started drinking and cooking with Adya water before your product came out and I feel it has improved my health.

Adya Clarity is also sold by adyawater.com. It’s my understanding that adyawater.com is the originator of the Adya Clarity product. They are also extremely helpful when I have questions.

Don and Judy are so glad you stepped over the line. Your research is invaluable in keeping us healthy. We know you are not into marketing anything but it would be awful if you told us about it and then didn't have it available to purchase. Using it now. We realized it was time to change out the RO (reverse osmosis) filters when we got a little bit of the flocculated brown bits in the bottom. Poured it through a coffee filter to separate out. I love your writing style. Your personality and honesty shines through and I love that. You are and have been very brave. Lisa too. Keep it up. Any money you make on the product is very well earned. We can't wait for future items.
