I'm in some telegram groups that don't provide medical advice, however they do preface answers with" for myself, I would use...". Can you tell me how you would use aurmina to increase your depleted minerals, as in would you add one extra drop to your glass of water, or one extra teaspoon? Would you increase it one drop at a time and quit if you see an adverse reaction?

If I start with distilled water, add Aurmina and don't care about staining, is there any other reason to filter the water? Does that staining build up over time and cause any problems?

Minor clarification on the discount: The six-pack at $599.99 is actually cheaper than the Thanksgiving 25% discount on six bottles = $675.

By the way, the descriptions of the three and six packs are short selling the quantities. Instead of repeating the single bottle description of "one year supply or 6 months for a household of two", the three pack should say, "three year supply or 18 months for a household of two", while the six pack should say, "six year supply or three years for a household of two".

Just my luck. I bought my Aurmina on the 26th and it goes on sale on the 27th. Oh well, anything to support Dr. Kory and I’m sure I’m still getting my money’s worth.

I asked "Rufus" - the Amazon AI to search for Aurmina and it pointed out Amazon cheaper products that are trace minerals. But Aurmina is not on Amazon so far. I'd like to see why Aurmina is much better than simple trace minerals which can be added to water.

So the only reason for straining the water after adding Aurmina which makes it yellow is to avoid staining on the glass container of that water?

I don't mind staining, as long as the build up is not harmful.

There is another side to this issue that says mineral are absorbed from food, and not from water. This side considers minerals in water as just small rocks. Without food the minerals in water do not get absorbed they say.

I use a distiller, but I'm going to try Aurmina as maybe it will help. I used to use a Vitalizer which spins the water along with a basket containing some metal balls which may not have much in them, if anything. It did not make any difference so I quit using it. I'm going to increase my consumption of spring water.

I'm open to learning more about water.

Doug - appreciate your interest. In lieu of having you read my book, the simplest way I can explain why I wrote it is that the mineral extract is not only unique among all mineral sources, but also unique in history, unless you go back 3.5 billion years to the genesis of the earliest life forms on earth.

I've read that a significant amount of water is absorbed into the body while we shower. If this is true, then drinking purified water is only fixing part of the problem. Thoughts?

I have an after market water filter for my bathtub faucet. I like to spend hours at a time in my bath, and didn’t like the fact that I was washing myself with contaminated water. So I bought a filter that hangs from your tub faucet(they also have for showers), it uses a 16 part filtration.

Define "significant" - if that were true, people who spend lots of time in the water would never be thirsty! Also, no-one showers in purified water - it does not exist on Earth (unless someone is showering in RO water?

Not sure. Here's the Google AI answer: "While your skin does absorb some water, the amount is negligible and does not significantly contribute to your body's hydration. The main health concern related to showering is not the water itself, but rather the absorption of chemicals from tap water through both the skin and inhalation."

Thanks for naming Lisa’s water. When you say you add a teaspoon or two, my question is to what quantity of water?

I treat a gallon at a time at home. Just curious , what amount do you add to a liter bottle of sparkling water. Thanks Dr Kory. I’ll be ordering more.

Karen, I did not see Dr. Kory name Lisa's water. Was that in the article? Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving.

Hi! I just bought a bottle and Im wondering how do you filter it (if after leaving it overnight there is some yellow water/residue)? Just a normal sieve?

and also, i understand you dont want to name the water brands that didnt come clean, but would love to hear if you can share the prefered brand from your wife, that did have good results?

Thanks!

I have the same question. And what kind of filter? Most filters are plastic and is that an issue? I have some yellowing in my RO water that I put in a glass container.

Not asking for medical advice, but a general question about the sometimes confusing (for me) pursuit of redox homeostasis in the body. Is iron in sulfated ionic volcanic minerals helpful or problematic long term for a person with hemochromatosis with managed ferritin but often elevated transferrin saturation percentages? Maybe it’s even more beneficial to such a person with higher general levels of oxidative stress? I start thinking in circles on this topic similarly to the nature of redox homeostasis balance and am unsure of the answer.

I'd like to see the 'iron' issue addressed. My understanding is that Aurmina, as a water purifier, used according to directions isn't a problem. Hubby and I, along with using Aurmina as a water purifier, have been having an extra teaspoon or two in a glass of water daily because we enjoy that lemony taste. This question will come up again when Dr. Kory offers his 'supplement' for purchase later on.
