Dr Bach of the Bach Flower Remedies worked initially as a pathologist and bacteriologist. He noticed that all chronic disease involves a change in our intestinal flora to the point where he could predict someone's symptoms  simply by knowing the composition of their gut bacteria.

It's important to keep our diet as alkaline as possible, since an acidic body is far more welcoming to bacteria and viruses, candida and cancer. An acidic diet also demands much more of our body's resources to maintain its ph balance, so that it contributes to toxic build up, bone density problems and speeds up ageing.

Chlorine kills healthy gut bacteria, so avoid it wherever you can. Drink water that's free of chlorine, heavy metals and pesticides (the latter are most present in tap water after heavy rain when we get run-off from the fields going into our water system).

Toxic Build Up
Many of our health problems are a result of a build up of toxicity in our bodies, which is why one day you can eat or drink something and it doesn't bother you but another day it might trigger a migraine or an attack of cystitis, arthritis or gout. Our current toxic load will decide how well we tolerate things. at that  time. If we're overloaded the smallest sip of red wine will send us into a darkened room. If we're close to overload and we drive on roads bordered by fields which have just been sprayed, we're likely to become best friends with a tissue box for while. Some things will contribute more than others to your particular overload and you can only take a close look at your environment, lifestyle and diet.

Remove a Major Source of Toxicity
I suffered with migraine for over thirty years, at least once a month. I tried countless  therapies, plus elimination diets, fasting and mercury filling removal. The answer came quite unexpectedly when I started drinking Pi Mag Water. I bought a system because it was the first water I'd found that I enjoyed drinking and that actually put minerals back into the water - I'd given up on ever finding a cure for my migraine - but suddenly I realised that six weeks had gone by and I hadn't had one! Not only that but the chronic back and muscle strains that were creating an increasingly intimate relationship between me and my osteopath had also stopped. My muscles and joints were finally lubricated - a revelation! In one fell swoop the water system had eliminated a massive source of toxicity from my life and had given me back a hydrated body and brain. The only migraines I've experienced in the past six years have been when I've forgotten to change the filter, so I make sure all my customers get email reminders - they're much less painful!
