I just received my Aurmina! What necessity is there to use a gravity filter. I have very hard tap water that is already conditioned with iron filter and water softener.

Could anyone share their experience with traveling and trying to structure their bottled water? I will be in Africa for 3 weeks - lots of bottled water opportunities. Thanks!

David Beckner's avatar

Can this process remove radionuclides as well?

Is Aurmina a liquid or powder? I live in Thailand, can it be sent there? Happy New Year to all

How about pouring distilled water into copper container to get minerals and then through aqua energizer to structure the water?

I have researched the ceramic gravity feeder and it comes up as Zen filter. Your feeder does not look like the Zen, as the Zen has a 5-stage filtration system. Although it does have the ceramic filter at the top compartment. Can you please verify if this Zen is acceptable, and what type of feeder you currently use? Thank you!

Dr. Kory, I'm wondering why you reply to virtually every comment on this oost but mine? Not this first time either.

Doctor, doctor... people keep ignoring me...

Next patient please!... 🤣

Hello Dr Kory

What is the best way to filter the water once the sediment develops over 48 hours. I am trying to figure out the best way to set up my system.

Many thanks for your long nights and deep dives!!!

Only problem posting at #112 is very few will see it....

Im love the elegant simplicity of The KoryMethod, time, visual confirmation.

Been reading Gerald Pollach's 'Fourth Phase of Water' which speaks to; structure, exclusion zone, etc.

He also mentions that the exclusion zone in water absorbs energy from light, especially certain wavelengths of light. This energy can perform work within the process.

This got me to thinking that The Kory Method may be superior to RO & distilled, through light impacting the process over the ~72 hrs.

I see the exterior windows letting in light to the process. Next question is, are windows excluding certain beneficial wavelengths, and are flocculation container glass also filtering certain wavelengths.

Hard, if not impossible to measure any of this, but if light is also a beneficial input, can the glazing be also optimized, or am I completely over thinking all of this, and its good that this post is #112, so nobody wastes time thinking about it?

Always worth asking the questions Colin 👍🇨🇦

How odd comma or maybe not that this cannot be delivered to California.

Even the Fiji water had brown yellow sediment in the bottom of the glass jar.

Pierre Kory, MD, MPA's avatar

yup. Not so fun fact: 20 years ago, when these same minerals water added to Fiji water, the water stayed clear...

I have not used the coffee filter method in the post. I have 3 glass liter bottles and siphon off all but the bottom layer containing the sediment by using plastic tubing that goes from bottle into the Berki. I still notice a yellow residue in the top Berki chamber after about a week so I clean that chamber out regularly. However the bottom chamber after going through the filters is shiny clean and the water clear and pure. This is very exciting! The only problem is I now realize I need a much larger Berki! I use this water for everything! But that’s ok this will become my travel Berki. I even gave a glas to one of my liberal musician friends who thinks I’m a complete conservative conspiracy nutcase but hey, he admitted it tasted pretty darn good. My next batch is Figi bottled water. We will see what that brings.

Deborah J's avatar

Yes, please post your findings on the Figi water test. I’m interested to know what you find.

Dr Lori Nettleton's avatar

It’s a water filter system with a top chamber having two cylinder filters and the bottom chamber collects the filtered water and has a spigot.

The Aurmina website says they can't deliver to California. Why not? Is there any way to get it here?

Pierre Kory, MD, MPA's avatar

look up NV Life - same product, ships within Clownifornia

David Bogdan's avatar

OK, found the light comment. I still live in California.

Jimmy Slim's avatar

Thank you. Are the NV Minerals the same as Aurmina?

Neural Foundry's avatar

Fascinating breakdown on mineral disorder vs mineral presence. The distinction between chemically dissolved and biologically coherent is rarely articulated this clearly, and the sediment-as-diagnostic framework flips the usual purity narrative. The real insight here is that flocculation isn't contaminating the water, its revealing whatwas always there but kept hidden by stabilization chemistry. I've seen similar dynamics in industrial wastewater treatment where suspended solids only become filterable after coagulation, same principe but different scale. The chronic disruption angle is underrated too, most toxicology still focuses on acute thresholds when the actual burden is cumulative misfit at enzyme binding sites and redox interference over years.

The best sales pitch for water purification:

“If you don’t have a water filter,

you are a water filter”.

Pierre Kory, MD, MPA's avatar

oh my. Brilliant!!

I will soon be 83 years old and am in good health with no prescriptions.

Is it worth it for me to follow this process to add the proper minerals to my drinking water?

If I do decide to go ahead with this treatment, I probably will purchase RO water from a grocery store and add the minerals because it will only take a few minutes to work. I don't want to install an RO system and I don't have the space to allow the 2 to 3 days for the municipal water to be treated.

I am purchasing both of Kory's new books.

Comments anyone?

Pierre Kory, MD, MPA's avatar

personally.. yes, R.O is easier b/c it does not need treatment time, but I like real water as a starter, either way, the mineral water will do you good

Truth Seeker's avatar

With the options that have been available for several decades R/O has not been a very good option, but better than nothing from the remove perspective.

Why do you believe that adding minerals is better than getting them from organic plant based eating, if you do believe this?

Aly Jaenicke's avatar

Yes. My grandmother always tells me if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

If I were you I would add Aurmina to your regimen.

Congrats on your soon to be 83.

I’m still in my 20s and I would love to hear it if you have any tips.

By American standards, which are low, I have had a good diet my whole life. My mom and my wife of 57 years prepared the food.

Then covid happened. I religiously followed flccc.net, A Midwestern Doctor and spent hours concerned with health and changed my lifestyle in many ways. I was on 5 prescription medicines which I could have been on for the rest of my life and I was 25 pounds overweight.

There was so much in flccc.net to learn. Now it is called IMA associates. I leaned that intermittent fasting helps autophagy so I began that. Then on Sept 2022, the weekly update on flccc.net featured Dr Marik and Dr Varon, discussed how they had reversed their diabetes. Dr Marik had been on diabetes medicine for 25 years. That was a turning point: I was responsible for my health.

I read books. I followed the video health programs. I subscribe to several substacks. I subscribed to Dr Mercola but he has so much information that there is no way I can do everything he recommends. I take too many supplement's -- over 20 -- but have not looked for help. I have had an osteopathic primary care physician for over 2 years and I tell her what is going on. Unlike my old physician who rejected things out of hand.

And something that was a turning point. All the Alzheimer's work points out how important sleep is. I had been on a CPAP for 12 years and never could get good outcomes. I was sick, but a sleep study, which was billed at over $6K, came back with an Apnea score of 64 and over 5 qualifies for a CPAP. But Stage 2 or 3 (don't recall which one of these) and REM sleep are essential. My scores on those were 0 and 0. None of either stages. My sleep doctors could answer 0=0 In other words, they had no idea and didn't give a shit. I went on line and found two support groups: My Apnea and Apnea Board (this larger one is so old that it was named in the area of message boards.) And there is a software program, OSCAR, and if you take the card out of an Air Sense 10, you get 12 graphs, some down to a resolution of one second. The CPAP machine only provides 5 and they rig the scoring to favor time of wearing the graphs. A truly wonderful volunteer on My Apnea spent a couple of months with me. I sent him visual reports from the graphs which look like a ER display. He worked it up and down (when they do an adjustment of pressure in an overnight stay, they work for upper and lower bounds which is trivial). With the graphs you can tune what is going on. We ended up with a constant level 11 with a quick start. The final step was a soft collar because I swung my neck back. My sleep doctors are a fraud. I was very worried about sleep and it can be difficult to figure out.

I eat mostly vegetables with the first meal 11 am or later.

The area with the biggest shortfall is exercise.

Hope there is something of interest in here.
