Berkey Water System

The Travel Berkey is what I have. It’s the third item in my healthy toolkit.

The Travel Berkey is the only one that will ship to California. As you can see it’s pretty and a nice compact size. It was easy to assemble. When we run out of water we pour 30 cups of tap water into the Berkey Water System. I bought it from Ready Made Resources. They are a prepper site.

Ready Made Resources claims, “The unique micro-porous filtration ability of the Black Berkey purification filters allow users to take water from most outside sources like streams, lakes, ponds and rivers and convert this questionable water to purified drinking water.”

I recently heard the cleanest water is rainwater. That surprised me. I did a little research. Obviously, you don’t want to collect the water running off your roof. And don’t drink rainwater near radioactive sites or an active volcano. But if I’m taking my Berkey with me then I’m probably not driving toward these areas. And if I’m staying home or not I store some bottled water.

The water from the Berkey tastes great. I no longer lug heavy bottles of water home weekly or pay for bottled water delivery. I bought the Travel Berkey back in 2019 and the original filters are still going strong. We fill our Berkey every three days. Right now the Travel Berkey costs $345 and is available on back order. The link is showing that a free Sport Berkey water bottle comes with the purchase of the Travel Berkey. I don’t think they had the sport bottle when I bought my water system. But I think I paid about the same for the Travel Berkey. If you want the Sport Berkey only, it is on sale for $46. You can fill it with tap water 640 times and refill with raw and untreated water 160 times.

Colloidal Silver

Colloidal silver is a natural remedy I started using about thirty years ago. Again my mom bought it to fight colds. I used to get sore throats when I started at a new school or just being around a new group of people. I found the colloidal silver would help heal my throat. It is also possibly an antibiotic. Consider colloidal silver for your healthy toolkit.

Many people use it to support the immune system. Like chaga it became one of those natural remedies during the supposed Covaids pandemic. So in the beginning I took covid seriously and took chaga and colloidal silver. Colloidal silver was attacked like vitamin C in 2020. I am still taking chaga and really like it. But I no longer “believe” in Covaids, which I have already stated back in 2020. Certainly, something was going around when I look at China. Ron Paul said it was a cold. But colds don’t kill. Some believe it was all a lie. Maybe it was a multitude of things. For me, I think it was the weird United Nations music, and Bill Gates predicting the future, and Klaus Schwab’s Covid 19: The Great Reset that was using the coronavirus as an opportunity. It just all seemed too well planned. Throughout my life in various situations, people have told me the truth always comes out.

Sorry to drone on, but last week while shopping at the health food store shoppers were back to wearing masks here in California. And when I talked to Old Hippie, Old Hippie blamed everyone for not wearing a mask that has caused the numbers to go up. I said, “Let’s agree to disagree.” But Old Hippie had to keep talking. So all those hippie solutions that a lot of  the time are from Native Americans don’t work? You mean Mother Nature can’t cure us? I’m being sarcastic. Why do hippies tell us to use natural remedies when they don’t practice what they preach? Hold true to your original belief systems old hippies. We need you.

With colloidal silver you should only take it once in a while or when sick. The instructions for Source Naturals says to take 2 teaspoons per day for no more than 10 days at a time, and for no more than 20 days per month. The product is not intended for children or for continuous use. And it’s vegan and gluten free.

I put the drops in water. And they taste like nothing. The 2 fluid ounces cost about $20. The parts per million are 10. A small amount of silver can be beneficial. Do your own research on ppm when it comes to colloidal silver.

I remember the story of a man who took too much silver and turned blue. Looking back I wonder if it was to scare people away from a simple remedy. Just don’t take too much unless you want to be part of the Blue Man Group in Vegas.
