Milk is carcinogenic
Yes! Anyone who consumes more than half a litre of the white drink per day and a lot of dairy products such as cheese, yoghurt etc. has a more than 20 percent higher risk of developing cancer. Here the prostate cancer is significant. This is because the cell division rate is increased by the milk and dairy products.
Milk mucus the respiratory tract
Wrong! Milk has a creamy property, when mixed with saliva it creates a "slimy" emulsion. Unfortunately this has nothing in common with mucus in the conventional sense. It is more a sense of taste. Therefore milk does not stimulate the production of mucus.
Milk promotes acne
Right! Milk contains growth-promoting messenger substances which are intended for the offspring of the breed. For those who are susceptible to acne, the messenger substances ensure that the fat production of the sebaceous glands in the skin is properly stimulated. Who suffers from acne should better avoid milk.
Milk from cows in the pasture is much higher quality than milk from cows in the barn
Right! The Danish Institute of Agricultural Research has found that milk from cows grazing in the pasture contains much more vitamin E, healthy fatty acids and beta-carotene.
Milk baths are a beauty elixir for the skin
Right! Cleopatra already knew this at a time when science could not prove it. The skin becomes smooth and soft, as today's scientists confirm. The secret why milk can compete with today's beauty treatments (or is the "easier competition") is that the milk contains milk fat and lactic acid. How do I prepare a milk bath at home: put two litres of milk or whey from the health food shop or five tablespoons of whey powder into a tub bath and mix well. Get into the bath water and do not exceed the recommended bath duration of 15 minutes. There are different variants for the milk bath. These can be found on the Internet. In any case, it is a good variant for people who want to avoid expensive beauty treatments.
Milk makes tired men feel better
Wrong! Where does the myth come from? From the 1950s. Because back then milk was intensively promoted by the dairy industry. Suddenly milk bars opened everywhere. Milk was a symbol of the economic miracle of the Federal Republic of Germany. The slogan promoted consumption and the image of the agricultural product. In the years that followed, the slogan was modified again and again. In the 1980s, the slogan came up: "Milk does it!" But, what does milk do? Today's slogan is "Milk is my strength". The question is: what other slogans will follow in the future? The truth is: milk contains the active ingredient tryptophane, which has a tiring and sleep-promoting effect on the human organism. The substance is also contained in cocoa. Milk makes tired men feel better because they have been persuaded to do so by the advertising industry. Imagination is everything, for some people imagination is the only education they have. Hello, the placebo effect sends its regards!
Myths about distilled water
Distilled water is produced from tap or spring water by distillation. By this process the water is freed from ions, trace elements and impurities. It is used as a solvent and cleaning agent in medicine, pharmacy, biology and chemistry. In the trade there is simply distilled water for car batteries or steam irons. However, this water is not really pure distilled water. Therefore it is not used in medicine. This is demineralized water, which is demineralized in an ion exchanger. This water is available for little money. Really pure distilled water is expensive and uneconomical due to the complex production process.
Distilled water is not drinking water
Wrong! Who does not know the saying of the pharmacist or the chemistry teacher: "Never drink distilled water. You can get water poisoning. Because water deprives the body of vital minerals!"
Unfortunately such sayings are from grandma's time and do not correspond to the truth. Why? If you drink distilled water, your stomach is enriched with trace elements. This happens through the food we eat. Many people swear by the aroma of tea brewed with distilled water. Nor can minerals or nutrients be flushed out of the cells. This is because our cell membranes are permeable (semi-permeable). Only water molecules pass through them. Sugar molecules or salts are too large and do not enter the cell through the cell membrane.
Drinking distilled water is even good and can even be a health food. Because it does not contain any harmful substances such as nitrates, lead, herbicides or pesticides. From time to time such cures should be taken, but not permanently. Whoever eats an unbalanced diet and drinks this water constantly must expect to deprive his body of potassium and sodium ions and thus upset the electrolyte balance. In warm summer times, where there is a lot of sweating, the distillate should be left out.
Never make cures with distilled water
Wrong! The most important function of water is purification. This means that poisonous metabolic residues should be removed from the body. This works best when the water is "empty" and "unsaturated". This means: the less minerals and other substances the water has, the better it can absorb dissolved pollutants in the body and flush them out. It can be compared to a magnetic effect. The toxins are attracted, retained and transported away. In contrast, hard mineral water interferes with the purification of the blood. Anyone who drinks water that cannot be transported must expect the blood to thicken. If the flow rate of the blood decreases, many harmful substances remain in the body and can be the cause of many illnesses in the long run.

Distilled water is distilled water
Wrong! Not every bottle of distilled water has distillate on it. You can buy 5 litre canisters of distilled water for a par cent. Unfortunately this is usually demineralized water. This is produced in an ion exchanger. In the trade it is available under "ironing water" or "battery water". Here you can find organic substances or other impurities.
Genuine distilled water is really expensive to produce and can be obtained from pharmacies. Also here you can get single and double distilled water, which is suitable for a cure.
