I'm currently reading Pollack's book
The Fourth Phase of Water. Amazon couldn't get it to me, so I ended up having to cancel that order and then order again direct from his family publishing company.
Anyway, I highly recommend it for those who have read his earlier work
Cells, Gels, and the Engines of Life. Fourth Phase seems to go into more details, and some of the implications are rather staggering.
Not only is the EZ water thing basically electrical in nature, but it seems that water is 50 times more awesome than anybody previously thought. Mainstream science basically ignores all these little "oddities" in favor of a more standard explanation - as usual. For example, even the concept of EZ or so-called "structured water" is widely recognized by mainstream science.
In any case, there are so many dots being connected as I read that I fear my head may explode. :O
For example, it appears that IR energy is most effective at "growing" the EZ layer. This makes perfect sense, since:
Sunlight, at an effective temperature of 5,780 kelvins, is composed of nearly thermal-spectrum radiation that is slightly more than half infrared. At zenith, sunlight provides an irradiance of just over 1 kilowatts per square meter at sea level. Of this energy, 527 watts is infrared radiation, 445 watts is visible light, and 32 watts is ultraviolet radiation.
- Wikipedia
So, you have tons of water on earth, and the majority of the "light" coming from the sun hits the earth as infrared radiation. Thus, nature's solar panels use the most abundant radiation. Furthermore, IR is emitted from everything, all the time. Even in a dark room, the walls and furniture are emitting IR.
If we are comprised primarily of water, then FIR saunas suddenly make a lot more sense (although far IR initially seems to be the wrong ideal wavelength). In addition, Pollack and his gang discovered that EZ water will expand (i.e. more bulk water will become structured) after application of a 7.5MHz ultrasound pulse. IOW, during the ultrasound, the water/EZ is disrupted - but remove the ultrasound, and the added energy is suddenly "converted" into more EZ. This reminded me of another article I read recently:
_http://www.animalvoice.com/catpur.htm
It's basically about a cat's purr, and how it appears that the frequencies prevalent in a cat's purr actually heal the body and promote bone and muscle growth - possibly by the promotion of EZ water formation, which appears to be essential to the proper functioning of our cells (my guess).
Well, I had noticed that despite the fact that our cat is not very sociable, shall we say, when I or anyone else is feeling bad either physically or emotionally, she tends to hop up in our laps and purr. It generally makes me feel better. This may help explain why humans have kept cats around for so long despite their being "less social and lovey-dovey" than dogs.
In another experiment conducted by a Russian, a flask of water with a bit of... salt and hydrogen peroxide, I think... and a tiny bit of luminol was placed in a dark cupboard. Luminol + an oxidizing agent = light. Well, the light being emitted from the flask was measured, and then the flask was placed in a dark cupboard. 1 year later, the flask was still emitting the same amount of light. The only explanation is that somehow, the aqueous solution was absorbing energy (infrared?) and converting it into visible light with the luminol. Otherwise, the chemical reaction producing the light would have exhausted itself much, much earlier than 1 year.
You can also take a flask of water, drop in a piece of hydrophilic plastic, and stick little electrodes in (one in the EZ water zone, the other in the bulk/normal water zone). You get about 200mV (not indefinitely). Structured water has a negative charge, and normal water is positive.
In short, it appears that because of this structured water phenomenon, water is basically nature's energy converter.
Another interesting concept is that this may all relate to information... Bulk water is basically disordered. Structured water is essentially the 3D structure of ice, but flattened. Thus, it's more viscous than regular water, and it acts more like a gel. So, the creation of structured water would imply the imparting of information.
Interestingly enough, so would an impending ice age. Sometimes I wonder if Mother Nature isn't saying, "Oh yeah, you don't want to take in this information? Well, here... I'll give it to you in another form!" Well, that part is just my own Crazy Thought of the Day.
Did I mention that it also provides very reasonable explanations for:
- how cells function
- how large trees "pump" water up to 100m upwards through tiny little tubules
- how red blood cells larger than a capillary are nevertheless "pumped" through with almost 0 effort from the heart
- how there can be so much life in the deepest parts of the world's oceans
Well, I could go on and on, but I highly recommend reading these books, and I'm only 1/3 of the way through
The Fourth Phase!
