"bottled water that is oxygen bonded"


I have taken the idea very seriously…..
We have very good water in our little village
real alpine water…..
I took a soda water maker (soda stream), took out the tank in the back
took it with me to work, and asked one of our technicians
to fill it up with pure (technical grade) O2, having the
cylinder filled with O2 now I put it back into the
soda maker, put a bottle of that very good water  in,
pushed the button…. and miracle, I had O2 water
or soda water made with O2… pored it into a glass,
took a big sip.........
hoping for a boost, the positive effects within two heart beats,
nothing, nada, just normal sparkling water (interesting flavour)

Oh well one more dream of a cure is of into thin air, and back
to reality of meds, and for me injection, and O2 (with out water)
just a can of coke to take the dry mouth away


Michael

Sorry for the sarcasm….  just cant stand this type of deceiving,
and most of all self serving posts, it just hurts.   Angry




Micheal, you never fail to amaze me !! Your scientific mind is incredible and your willingness to literally try anything ( well almost ) for CH is amazing !

To be honest though, I dont think your oxygenated water is the same as oxygen bonded water. Your version was simply water with bubbles of oxygen mixed in it, like carbonated drink ( sparkling drinks ) where the oxygen is mixed in but separated from the water molecule itself.

I think what the OP is referring to is this stuff

The testimonials are interestingly only from the manufacturers and the claims are very vague like how stamina is increased and how one feels better after consuming these water. Most likely this is due to placebo effect and is not quantifiable nor qualifiable.

I live in Los Angeles, where the "air" is 4 parts CO2, 3 parts truck exhaust, 2 parts smoke from seasonal fires, and one part hot air from Hollywood publicists. Don't get me started on the water...

That little alpine village sounds like heaven on earth.

I'm new to clusterheadaches.com. Do we really get many people trying to sell us ultimate cures like this?

All I can do is wish Chad the best of luck and a good cluster so's he can try his miracle cure out on himself.

What concerns me is those who might just be passing through the site, pick up on a post like that and actually get in touch with our friend.

If you don't know the background to cluster headache you could be tempted to try anything.

Let's hope "Chad" has a really good cycle to try it out on before he comes back and tells us how great his treatment is.

Sometimes it gets a little lively around here when itinerant peddlers of miracle cures drop in.

I was really hoping he'd come back, as I wanted to trade him some water for a little piece of architecture I just happen to own up New York way. Quite splendid really, a noble span over the mighty East River linking lower Manhattan with the up-and-coming borough of Brooklyn. It's rugged, handsome, suitable for automobile and pedestrian traffic both, all-weather, a marvelous bit of engineering all in all that's stood the test of time and can be his for the low, low price of 3 dozen cases of miracle CH cure-all water. Now I ask you, is that a bargain or what??

Balanchine...you are cracking me up. Since I've lived most of my life in Burbank.

Your "air" post made me spit my coffee all over my keyboard..I live in Redding at the moment but have to go down to the "Valley" every other month or so.  Surprises me how many up and coming script writers are working as waitresses, mechanics etc.  lol

I like you.  You'll fit right in here with the rest of us brain-damaged crazies.

We dont have gills. Its against evolution !


Not quite against evolution, a part of it.  Our head is built from a simple blueprint, every head on every animal from a shark to a human shares four arches in embryo development, gill arches, and point by point comparisons can be made.  
 Four little swellings develop in the area that will become the throat.  After about three weeks we see the first two, the others emerge about four days later but then whole batteries of genes turn on and off.
 When you think trigeminal nerve, think first gill arch, which also forms some ear bones.  The cells of the second gill arch divide and change into cartilage and muscle; cartilage breaking up to form the stapes bone and also the hyoid.  The third and fourth gill arches formed structures we use to talk and swallow.
 Four indentations correspond to each gill arch swelling.  The first elongating to form our Eustachian tube and some structures in the ear.  The second foms the cavity that holds our tonsils.  The third and fourth form important glands, including the parathyroid, thymus, and the thyroid.


In rare cases gill slits fail to close and remain open as pouches or cysts, a branchial cyst is often the failure of the third and fourth arch to close.


notes from: "Your Inner Fish", a journey into the 3.5-billion-year history of the human body.





An offbeat wonder could pass a thought about the battery of gene development with our first arch, the trigeminal nerve and its connection to the hypothingy.    Smiley

What I meant was we are not going back to developing gills just so we can benefit from this miracle oxygenated water, that would be against evolution.

Some people though seem to be a bit slower in the process of natural evolution and remain largely fishy.

Fish do have 12 cranial nerves including the trigeminal. They could suffer from cluster headaches but saved by the fact that they dont get REM sleep while still in water. Reptiles may be ?

Annette, if reptiles don't suffer from clusters... that means that all those agents out in Beverly Hills are off the hook!

I see, Annette.  Smiley

Yeah, I'm a Pisces.  If I was a fish with clusters, I'd probably swim across an ocean to try it,... and then figure out I'm surrounded by water with oxygen and swim all the way back.  What would the guys think if I came back breathing bottled water.

"Sooo, how'd it go?  You uh, get the bottled water with oxygen?

"Oh no.  I was visiting the southern coast of France for... checking out the Mediterranean spawning beds."

"Yeah sure."

I cant think of a single fish that suffers from cluster headaches. 

Maybe the cure is in the gills.  I'm gonna have my scientist check into getting me a set of gills.

I'll let you know how that goes.   Roll Eyes

Jean, Everyone..... great news.

I have a scientist! I HAVE A SCIENTIST!

This morning, early, I was out baying at the moon per usual, it was just after dawn, and lo and behold there shambling up the street was a man with grizzled hair and a dirty beard, wearing a white coat and muttering differential equations to himself in Latin. I waited until the sun had juuuuust peaked over the hill and then I stepped in front of him and blinded him temporarily with the Light of Reason.

Then I grabbed him and whisked him off the street and into the basement, into the cage right next to mine.

I filled his water dish and made sure he had plenty of beakers, test tubes and several sizes of Rubik's cubes. I lectured the rats to stay away, and I felt they understood.

I made potato salad.

He doesn't seem like a bad guy at all, once you get past the Latin. Today I'm going out to buy him a blackboard and chalk, and some random forms that he can fill out to give himself the illusion that he's applying for government grants.

I'm open to suggestions from here. What the heck should I do with him?

David

Don't forget to pick up bottled water and a straw so he can blow bubbles into it.  We need to try out some of that great oxygenated water!

BTW,  Congrats on the new scientist!

Thanks, Jeannie. And that's a good suggestion. Maybe I'll get him some baby aspirin too so he can have fun with chemicals. I still have fond memories of the old ad (do thick Irish accent).... "It's all right, sir, it's St. Joseph's....".

But I digress.

I know! Along with the water I'll buy him some magets... and... and... he can pull the pain right outta my head!
