- Опубліковано 25 чер 2024
- We've covered water fluoridation and special waters, so let's move on to the properties of water! Did you know that the water in your body is special? It's called structured water, or hexagonal water. Or at least that's what some would have you believe so that they can sell you devices that will "structure" the water you drink and make it better for you. Also, did you know that water responds to emotions, and has memory, just like humans? No wait, that's another lie with zero substantiation. Man, people really lie a lot about water, don't they? Let's wrap up the trilogy and debunk some charlatans, shall we?

In my kitchen I have a machine that energizes water. It is called a kettle.
Doctor Strange, is that you!?
I have a different water energiser. A hob. But you need the special pan to hold and structure the water. Lol
Are you sure it "energizes" the water? It is not hexagonal. My machine , which I think it is bigger than yours, "hexagonalizes" water. Other people call it a freezer, but do not listen to them. lol ;)
I have a machine that recharges my body. It’s called sleeping.
@@snewp_e2139 and I have a machine that can make this sleeping thingy easier, it's called "bed"
"Structured water is more energetic."
Wow, that is EXACTLY backwards. Structured water (i.e. ice) is structured because the molecules don't have enough energy to break out of those structures. That's why adding energy (i.e. heat) to it causes it to melt into liquid water. This is basic, basic chemistry.
Pretty much anyone who knows how melting and boiling points work on a basic level would see how dumb this is
Hot liquid ice

@@tonyhakston536 it’s…autocorrect. I’m literally one letter off and d and r are right next to each other on the keyboard. You don’t need to correct me like I’ve never seen it before.
Structured water has completely changed my life. Previously, when I was blind, I’d drink from bottles with laughably small “structures,” and was frequently dehydrated. While I’m not up to the hexagonal challenge yet, I did move from cylindrical bottles to more of a rounded square shape, which holds a lot more water. Less dehydration! Patiently waiting for the “industry” to stop keeping us down and roll out the tetrahedronal bottles.
Immortality practically a given at that point.
😆
Lol ur an idiot hahaha.
I have to admit that I bought into structured water when I was younger. I used to pay a couple of bucks per glass. However it really only gave me hangovers and make me dance like an idiot and say stupid things after consuming larger amounts. The whisky that held the structured water in suspension did not create vortices of positively charged hexagons of magic however during the third or fourth glass during my younger years did start to morph people around me into much better looking people whom I loved so very much, no really, i really loved them all, seriously! 😁
Had me in the first half lmao
Lmao
You are more correct than you realize (the debunker dude is really quite wrong, laughably wrong). Hard liquor and good wine are structured liquids. So is milk, Jello and pudding.
I'm thinking of setting up a business to sell "Concentrated Water". This is made by a special process of heating ordinary water and removing the excess and unwanted steam to create a much concentrated and powerful form of water, which I call Concentrated Water (not to be confused with consecrated water).
This new concentrated form of water is 20x smaller, 20x lighter to carry but also 20x more refreshing, and yet it only costs 10x more!
Finally, a reputable concentrated water seller, I found out my previous supplier was diluting the water I was selling with un concentrated water!
So you should consider buying my consecrated concentrated water. 20x smaller, 20x lighter, etc but with added god!
I’ll look into it, while traveling the TSA confiscated my consecrated concentrated water
Sounds great! I’ll buy 20x the normal amount! 😆
Sadly I have you beat. I am in the process of selling dehydrated water. It's better than your product as it is way smaller (nothing there) and weighs nothing. All you have to do is add water...
There is a situation in which the water in your body will achieve that stable hexagonal structure. I haven't had it happen to me but I'm told it hurts quite a bit, and the rehabilitation can take months. Sometimes the resulting damage to nervous and muscular tissue results in permanent disability. Frostbite. I mean frostbite.
:D
I haven't seen this coming until the end of reading that awersome comment.
The trick is to get ice powers first so you become immune to the side effects of frostbite.
@@mwperk02 the first is to freeze yourself
Oh, and here I thought extrusion through a hexagonal manifold... oh well.
I love science not only because it explains what I see, but because it allows me to ask bigger and bigger questions every time I seek answers. So much of my curiosity stems from what scientific knowledge I have. I can't imagine not having that base from which I wonder. I don't know why anyone would subscribe to a lie when real science is so much more magical, and so much more beautiful.

Structured water really is magic. It's ice, that's liquid, but also hot.
@@ari3903 It is possible. This depends on pressure level surrounding ice - the higher pressure the higher temperature cap for water to start liquidising. That's why we can spot hot ice on certain planets - they weight more than Earth therefore gravitational force is stronger there and it presses on water harder than here
Honestly, the entire "water has memory" thing seems to operate on the "Law of Contagion", which is literally a law of magic from fantasy books. It literally IS magic that they're talking about.
@@Nukestarmaster
Let’s do neuropsychological testing on the water to see how good it’s memory is.
@@necromancer803 what is interesting is that most substances do the opposite (increasing pressure at a constant temperature causing them to solidify then vaporize)
hot... ice! (rookie of the year)
If "structured water" is ice, wouldn't it actually have less energy? Fantastic take-down, Professor Dave.
Yes EXACTLY. In order for water molecules to arrange themselves in that hexagonal structure (ice), they have to slow down their random motion relative to each other, which then allows the hydrogen bonds to take over and form that open hexagonal lattice structure we know as good ole' ICE
But.. but.. the crystal energies!
@@skipfred If crystals are actually "life" as Spirit Science says, then I'd better pack up my pocket pitchfork in case I come across someone chewing ice again
"Structured water" really is in a higher energy state at room temperature, but that just means it is inherently unstable.
This is why ice spontaneously melts at room temperature, it is higher energy and therefore less stable than liquid water.
The extra energy contained in the structure is dissipated as heat, as Dave said.
@@aredclwon Ice has lower kinetic energy. You are conflating entropy with energy. As the ice melts, the atmosphere loses energy and the ice gains energy. The thing with the energy here is obviously the atmosphere itself, if the ice were floating out in space it would never melt. It's no coincidence that things like neutron stars, some of the most homogeneous things in the universe, are neatly arranged at the atomic level. It is true that things at high energy states want to fall to lower energy states, but to suggest that the thermal mass of an ice cube can will the atmosphere in any meaningful way is ridiculous
"Stagnant water is filled with death and decay, and also life, like bugs. That's not a self contradictory statement at all."

What's chronic pagophagia?

no no no,, thats the bad energy!!!! you dont want that! you have to say nice things to the water as it boils so that way it will be nice to you when you drink it 😂
Let me get this straight
Structured water is frozen water
Frozen water being frozen has very little energy
But structured water is supposed to be energized
In conclusion hot ice
Hot ice can exist, but only at very high pressures, deep-in-gas giant pressures.
@@paulmahoney7619 There's a planet that has ice that is unmelting and on fire, but it's because of EXTREME gravity

100 years ago our life expectancy was about 46 years, and child mortality today is 2-5% of what it was then.
None of that was achieved by internet researchers, but by real research, controlled double blind trials, publication, and peer review. Throw in a measure of respect for expertise.
I will happily buy copies of your book, they will make ideal christmas presents for certain friends and family.
leave a few of the books in the waiting room.
Total agreement, IMHO part of the problem is we have a real issue of many younger people these days having no concept of "relevance". Am constantly confronted by people who genuinely believe that out and out speculation, with no supporting evidence equates to the same level of predictive power as established science.
A little bit of epistemology in schools would probably help too, people need to understand "how do i know, what i think i know" is functional nudge towards critical thinking.
If I may, I can explain why this happens, and the answer is political, not scientific. People are ignorant of science for the most part, so are reliant on gatekeepers of knowledge for their enlightenment. In the old days, people used to read a science journalist, believe them, or hear what their doctor is telling them, and trust and believe in them too.
These days, that trust in expertise has been so abused by those in the role of gatekeeper that it has eroded completely. (I'm looking at journalism, here, not science or medicine!) People can tell now that the media is lying to them constantly. Not about everything, but about enough to erode the audience's trust. Expert talking heads are trotted out to lend weight to whatever that particular channel's agenda is, people who are nominally scientists or doctors, thus trust in those people is broken too by proxy. People can't tell what is true, and what is wrong, or false, so this creates a knowledge _and_ a trust vacuum.
The people watching don't know about controlled double-blind trials, peer review, or difference between a cohort study and a meta-analysis. To them science is an arcane practice by nerdy people using long words, who seem to be in cahoots with the other gatekeepers who are clearly misleading them on the regular. They don't know how to read a scientific paper, or know that if something is on a pre-print server it hasn't been peer-reviewed yet (these are often the only texts you can read in full for free).
Add to this climate of mistrust a pandemic of dubious origin that has sent the ruling class of the world mad with power, with ever more stringent limits on our freedoms in the name of "The Science" that keeps giving contradictory answers. Don't wear masks, they don't do anything, then six months later, you must wear a mask or YOU cannot do anything! Democrats saying they'd never take any vaccine made under Trump, then when they are in power, they try to mandate that same vaccine as a condition of employment. These contradictions are rarely explained, you are just expected to comply, and are lambasted as an anti-vaxxer or conspiracy theorist if you question what's going on.
People may be ignorant of the scientific method, and medicine, but they are not stupid. They can tell when they are being taken for a ride, but they do not have the privilege of a medical education like yourself, so of course they are going to turn to dodgy Facebook groups and stuff for their knowledge, because they don't know how to parse good information from bad the way you or I do. Now dodgy politicians are saying they _must_ be injected with something they don't understand - well, can you blame them for being reticent?
I think experts, such as yourself, forget what ignorance is like. These people probably don't know about the last 100 years of miraculous innovations in medicine and science, we have normalcy bias for the world we find ourselves in. I'm afraid it's your job to gently educate these people, but also to understand why they believe the things they do.
@@RoganGunn that’s right. Public trust has eroded in the institutions that are supposed to be trustworthy. A lot of that is due to politically motivated disinformation campaigns. Some of it, however, is due to the institutions themselves including medicine and academia. I mean, the opioid crisis is a huge example of how modern medicine failed the general public.
i feel like imma throw up by the pseudo science zone for more than an hour. i can't imagine how you feel after dealing with conspiracy theorists while having a genuine understanding of science
Thank you Dave! I’ve realized how bad structured water is, and I’ve improved on it. It’s called HONaCl! This product takes carefully harvested NaCl molecules from only the flattest salt flats and merges it with pure vibrational spring water to create healthy water with high energy! The salt in it helps your body absorb and break down the water molecules while also giving good vibrations off to neighboring proteins!
Thank you for all the information and knowledge you give out. So much better than a crazy expensive science class. You're the best 👌
"structured water is energized water" translation: "ice is hot"
My favorite part was when Dave said that spinning water in a vortex is not going to do the same thing as electrolysis and split the hydrogen from the oxygen. That made me laugh because boat propellers would be making flammable hydrogen in the water all over the place lol. There response of course would be “no you don’t get it, there has to be a SPECIAL vortex for it to work.” To borrow a catch phrase from Doctor Evil - Riiiiigghht…
A quantum vortex, to be precise.
That was truly one of the best videos I've seen recently. It was super entertaining. I definitely subscribed and will be watching you more often from now on.
11:10 didnt know that the properties of a molecule were also due to the geometry of it. now i know, thank you
Geometry matters a lot. For example, glucose vs fructose. Same exact chemical composition, but geometry is different and thus they behave differently.
I don’t know. When I add structured water to a brewed concoction of non structured dihydrogen monoxide, camellias sinensis and crystallized extract of saccharum officinarum, it tends to magically make me feel more comfortable on hot days and seems to reduce my body’s need for hydration.
True, but be careful, as sometimes when large quantities of structured water form inside your arterial bloodstream they cut blood flow to extremities and cause cells in said limbs to either without their nutrients from the now-structured blood cells

Thank you for posting this excellent series of videos debunking all those myths.
Thank you for the analysis of the topic. It was funny at some moments;) I've heard most of these theories of water many years before. And every time I was trying to go deeper, the expensive product was the dead end of a theory, therefore I assumed it wasn't even worth to analyze it anymore. I'm also using tap water through a Brita for many years and I'm pretty satisfied with that. It is cheap and I don't have any scale on the bottom of my kettle.

Well, if you spin the water fast enough, it _will_ get hot enough that the water splits. Although I think you're better off just using electrolysis.

I'd been thinking this whole time "I wonder if I'm also falling for something; like, is Brita also a scam?" so you ending the video by clarifying that filters are a-ok was weirdly comforting, haha
That really shouldn't be enough to settle this issue.
If it's something you're concerned about, look up what Brita claims their filters do, and check if there's need for that. The main question should be: What is there in your tap water that you might want to get rid of?
Taste mostly
Filters do what you'd think they do, they filter out all the small particulates in the water, not all of it, some things are too small to be filtered. Other filter sometimes put in minerals after the filtration process. But generally speaking filtering water is unnecessary depending on where you live, English NA and western Europe have perfectly fine to drink tap water.

yay water memory :) I met a guy who believed it and considered himself scientific minded, but also wasn't following the science at all (think scientific papers = sketchy documentary to him). And "if I'm wrong I'll be glad to be told" but don't believe any evidence given to him. You can't win and that's because people are entitled to believe whatever they want (and be criticized for it!)
Ultimately, that’s alright, because the worst thing these people do is get ripped off by strangers.
Ah, the 'if I'm wrong I'll be glad to be told' / change my mind / etc... These seem worse than the mere gullible. They claim to be so 'open-minded' and all that, but when given any evidence or reasoning that disputes their position, "Well I'm not so sure, that's just what 'they' want you to believe." They're only 'open-minded' so long as your data agrees with their pre-concieved ideas.
Wait, reading multiple peer reviewed research papers on a specific subject (which only actually helps if you understand all the words only really ever used in academic settings) isn't the same a watching a layperson explain their theories on a blurry webcam on UA-cam?
@@mikedrop4421 of course not and it will never be so but for these guys it’s enough and then Dunning Kruger kicks in. Some people like over simplified explanations for really really difficult fields of science and then have the hybris to talk about it.
I cannot explain to you how glad I am that when I was a kid and saw Masaru Emoto talking about "words affecting the crystalisation of water", which completely contradicts the facts that: a) ice is literally the crystalline form of water just like Quartz is the crystalline, solid form of the same Quartz you could melt; basically, ice is a mineral b) emotions are a bunch of hormones and physiological reactions paired with the electrical impulses in one's nervous system or its equivalent c) words and symbols are not a universal constant and are a product of society, they cannot affect space-time, they cannot affect reality or the laws of nature, in the exact same sense how and why prayers, mantras and talismans cannot affect the world around them d) consciousness is not a human-only trait, it's the basis of lifeforms as all lifeforms require intellect to perform choices; a bunch of electricity happening in one's nervous system, ganglia, neuroid cells or whaTEVER is not going to affect the chemical properties of water
My reaction was just "huh??? that doesn't make any sense tho, how would that work???"
I was around 13.
You might want to do your own research and not automatically believe everything you hear on UA-cam. Dr. Emoto (and he is a doctor from a real university in Japan. You can search that as well), has many published papers on gold standard double blind clinical trials on pubmed. His research has also been cited and replicated many times. Don't believe everything you see on yt. This video is one of the most disappointing "science" videos I've seen in quite a while. Please do your own research on what was said about Dr. Emoto and Dr. Montagnier. It is quite misleading the way he throws in some obvious charlatans who are trying to make quick money by scamming people right alongside true research scientists who are/were anything but charlatans. It is deeply disappointing and really very cynical.
In a research project some years ago we build an automated PCR detection device for water (focus were human pathogen viruses). Some people called and asked if it could detect energized water as well.
Are the dislikes on these videos from people who sell magic water or people who buy magic water?

I haven't watched this episode yet, but does the "water memory" segment include a debunking of homeopathy? If not, will you be doing an episode in this "Lies People Tell About Water" series on that topic?
EDIT: Having finished watching it, I can verify that Dave uses the clause "...and some claim that it serves as the basis for homeopathic remedies" during the "water memory" portion of this episode, but that's his only reference to homeopathy in this episode. I would've preferred a more direct and less fleeting negation of that particular branch of quackery, but I appreciate what Dave's given us here.
I think Tim Minchin covered it pretty well. If water has memory, then it also remembers piss and shit.
me too!
The only people at the Israeli lab where they tried to reproduce the experience (and failed, it only worked when Benveniste assistant was doing it herself) were homeopathic doctors. Others withdrew.
And it's ironic, because it's the opposite of homeopathic principle, where you use a substance causing headache and dilute it to remove headache. In the Benveniste and later Montagnier version you recreate the original substance, or at least their original effect, with the water memory. So if it was true homeopathy would make symptoms even worse...
I was just sticking to the properties of water rather than delving into medicine, I hit homeopathy pretty hard in my book. Perhaps it'll make another appearance at some point.
anyone who believes in homeopathy must know that they are basically drinking urine
I love how you ask the question "why do people want to believe this stuff? What ouch does it scratch?" As well as pointing out humans anthropomorphisize everything. I'm actually interested in the answers!
My gf is very into metaphysics and I've explained to her that a lot of these sales pitches rely on the limits of language. Like "energy" it means something specific in science, but it has wide usage outside that in common language (adhd kids have a lot of energy etc) and I think "memory" is an example of this. Like say denting metal with a hammer and equating the dent to "memory" if we can get them to clarify what them mean and nail it down in a lab (like the hydrogen bonds or whatever they said about water structure) then it seems it might aid education
When I was about 11, I was given "gay water" and I have never been attracted to women ever since. So I can guarantee you that some water's have certain powers that can change our body and brain.
I musta got the "trans water"

Professor Dave, you have opened my eyes and changed my life. It is silly to think that water which flows in a straight line or water which flows through bends has been degraded. So, from now on, I will only drink water which has flowed through a spiral!
Twirly straws for everyone!

It's really interesting how water molecules travelling through 300ft of straight pipe somehow become less "structured" and "organized" than if it had been been tumbling randomly through creeks, dirt, silt, bug shit and pond scum.

Here in Europe we had an "water vitaliser" which costs a few thousands of Euros.
It was recently outlawed, since it worked with radio frequency (around 20W at 144.15 MHz) and caused a lot of interference. Ham radio operators DO NOT like this, and tracked them down and reported them to the regulating agency, which then stopped the import, sale and use of it. Whoever is turning it on now, is risking a hefty fine (at least the second time you do it, the first time they usually only inform you about the problem .. but if you give them crap about it, it's totally possible for them to fine you right away).
The fun thing is, people who use this stuff are the same crowd which are scared of mobil base towers, especially 5G. This thing did produce quite significant RF fields whenever it was running ..

Thank you for these. The truly immoral and criminal aspect of these snake oil salesmen is that probably most of the people who fall for these things are the chronically ill or ill with a condition that can't easily be explained/treated/cured. Or that have been ridiculed and abused by MDs with horrible bedside manners, who should never be allowed to see actual patients (TBF, a minority, and at the time, they were just trying to be skeptical, because there was no literature on what I had, but jerks will go too far). It's true that going for a 1hr alt health treatment likely involves much more care, nice lighting, relaxing music, and great massage (part of the marketing they use) than a 5-15min visit to a dr. And the alt practitioners believe you, whatever you say. Of course. I know, I was once, even though reasonably educated with scientific parents, and already into debunks and such, involved in all manner of health nonsense in the 70s and 80s, due to contracting a strange illness (and had been a card carrying member of the counterculture, which evolved into New Age in the 70s, dragging all things in the hippie utopia with it, including water).
My illness took my youth and dreams and I was desperate for answers or a cure, to get my life back. So I got into a network of friends with frustrating health problems (rheumatoid arthritis, MS, etc, etc). I was just ripe for picking. And was. The final cure for all this nonsense was a) trying it ALL, with no good result, and b) going back to college and relearning the *scientific method", taking a critical thinking class, and theoretical engineering in which everything was a proof. These things, plus *still* having the health problem, in spite of thousands of $$$$$ spent and guarantees made, cured me of spending money for nothing. Turns out, all these decades later, my illness was caused by, of all things, wait, are you ready... a virus! Still no cure or other than supportive treatment (and snake oil still making a killing), but it's nice to know, anyway. This group of people I was in, would now, of course, gravitate to covid conspiracies/misinformation, as most were already convinced their diseases were caused by the bad govvy or medical establishment, than by an actual physical processes. I am mystified, though, why healthy people would gravitate toward this stuff. Like, what's the motivation?

@@maythesciencebewithyou the ought does not imply the is, and vice versa. Risk assessment is not a zero sum game, even though it has the right to be. Well, that's not quite either.
