Humidifiers and Asthma

For those of you who are challenged with asthma and / or allergies, there is a very interesting phenomena that occurs using prill water in a humidifier ...it lowers the humidity of a room or an area, it is purported to eliminate mold and mildew. While we have posted information re asthma / allergies in past messages, we have gathered some of that information together to reprint here.

DARTEZ WRITES: (GLN #123 5/18/02)

When I was at the Twilight facilities last February, Jim Carter told me about a truly exciting use for the Prill beads that will eliminate mold and mildew from our homes. I simply have not gotten around to documenting this use and NOW is the time.

When Prill Water is used in a humidifier, the moisture that is put out by the humidifier is something substantively different than normal H2O. The moisture produced by Prill Water has quite different properties from normal H2O moisture …in particular, mold and mildew cannot exist in Prill moisture probably because there is not sufficient available oxygen to support its need to respire. Thus, over time, probably two to three weeks, as all of the normal H2O moisture in a home or office is replaced with Prill moisture and mold and mildew is literally driven out of the facility.

While I was in Jim Carter’s office where one of those $100 or less Sears humidifiers was running, Jim took out a device that tests the humidity. Jim indicated that the ambient humidity in Boulder City at that moment was about 30%. We took a reading sitting at Jim’s desk and the device registered a reading of 15%, substantially below the ambient humidity and very substantially below what you would expect with a humidifier running full blast. We then moved over to a position about one inch above the output of the humidifier where you would expect the humidity to be almost 100%. The reading there was 9% and a little later in the afternoon a reading at the same point was 5%.

The point of this exercise was to demonstrate that Prill moisture is something different than normal H2O moisture and thus the testing device was not reading the presence of the Prill moisture. Likewise, the mold and other allergens don’t detect and cannot use Prill moisture and thus they choose to depart in search of H2O moisture.

For the price of ... a humidifier plus perhaps four bags of Prill beads, millions of sufferers from allergies could find major relief. A single Sears humidifier unit could handle about a 2500 square foot home and it might take about 2 or 3 weeks for all of the H2O moisture to be replaced with Prill moisture. Although it might not be intuitive, even in an environment where there is humidity approaching 100%, there are major benefits from using a humidifier with Prill Water.

As a side note, Jim Carter reports that his heating and air conditioning bills dropped in half after starting to use a humidifier with Prill Water. His finding is that Prill Water handles BTU’s in an entirely different way and a much more efficient way.

What would that be worth each year??

When you consider that Black Mold was the root cause of the Bubonic Plague that wiped out 30% of the world’s population and that White Mold was the root cause of the Flu plague of 1917 that wiped out 10% of our population, you will realize that we are involved in one of the most powerful and meaningful technologies in the history of the world!! Some say that we are on the verge of another mold induced worldwide plague. We now possess the technology to avert a major catastrophe…tell your loved ones…tell your friends…tell anyone who will listen… Blessings, David

Jim Carter ... from transcript of meeting 3/17/02:

Prill Water put into a humidifier will replace the moisture in the air of your home. I don't care how humid it is outside. Your home will feel dryer when you put a humidifier with the Prill Water in it. It was my intent to saturate and change the moisture in the air in the house in a form that the fungal spore didn't like. I did that. I drove it all outside. It doesn't grow in my house any more and I can prove that. That's why we don't have molds growing out on our nose or sinuses or we don't have colds or flu.

It appears that the Prill Water will accumulate and build up and become more concentrated in your home even when you are opening and closing doors. It kind of stays with it's self. It doesn't like the moisture in the air outside. That was one of my pet projects because a slight haze on the horizon is known as a fungus spore, a spore of mold. It may be the last thing we get to experience. It may be the end of man.

There are two kinds of mushrooms, white ones we eat and black ones that are toxic. That's all we are talking about, mushrooms. Little, bitty ones are called fungus. All of the black ones I know of are very toxic. You don't catch the flu, you accumulate it. When you get enough spore into your lungs when they start growing into mushrooms it causes your body to react because they off gas really funny odors that are quite toxic. Your body will react to that and that's what you come down with and you call it the flu. If you don't have too much mold in your lungs you will survive it. If you do, it will bury you. Every time you have one of these events, every time you get the flu it will reduce the effectiveness of your immune system dynamically. You will simply catch it and catch it until it gets you. It happened in the 15th century. It was called the black plague because of the black mold around the people's noses and mouths when they actually died. In 1918 to 1919 it was known as the flu, it was called the flu because of the white vapors that came out of chimneys when wood or coal fires are at low ebb. The white haze must have been on the horizon and it was blamed on the white vapors coming from the chimney flu. Cars are wonderful vehicles to accumulate it and as you go down the road you will concentrate it. Houses are square in a round world. They have cracks. When pressure blows against your house, air goes inside and becomes neutralized and drops this spore in your home.

What made me start looking at it is when we moved to Nevada, we had what was called black mold or black fungus in our swimming pool. Everyone told me there was nothing that you can do about it except tear down the swimming pool and start over. Well I started to kill it, and I couldn't kill it. So I became very familiar with it.

Using the Prill Water was the deterrent. It's quite viable. We have a whole bunch of people who are putting Prill Water in their humidifiers. Just recently we found that Prill Water dissolves the glue that's used in the humidifiers. So a few modifications. Something like a pan of Prill Water just sitting on your stove, like a teakettle sitting there hot all the time sending some of this moisture in the air. I have no idea how much it takes in order to keep the mold out of your house, but any amount is a good beginning point. The glue that holds the plastic of the humidifiers together seems to be degraded by the Prill Water. We will be going around all the seams of the humidifier with silicone sealant that I know aren't degraded by Prill Water. I think that will solve the problem. So if you go that way get some silicone sealer and do all the cracks.

The Prills were first made to clean up wastewater from nuclear power plants. Bi-Polar solutions, EDTA, were used in the cooling systems of nuclear power plants and it absorbs all kinds of things including lots of radioactive materials. So we made the Prills. Because of handling, you can't filter this very easily, but it worked. I found this stuff in seawater just by making a mistake. They were originally made to clean complex solutions that couldn't be cleaned, photographic solutions, toxic materials, all the metals in the EDTA solutions in the nuclear power plant were radioactive. We took it down to parts per trillion, virtually nothing. It restored the character around the solvent and Dow Chemical says if you don't buy more solvent from us and throw this other stuff away we won't sell you the chemicals so it didn't go anywhere.

... (It has) an extremely high affinity for anything unnatural. The Prill material is probably one of the primal substances created in the world. I think nature only makes 2 things, she makes common salt sodium chloride and I think she makes magnesium chloride. I have taken a gallon of water and a grain of salt and made 5 pounds of salt using this technology. The sodium chloride and magnesium chloride taken through the digestive track of animals turns into other things, like coral makes calcium from magnesium chloride.

Theoretically, you can convert the moisture in the air into Prill moisture just by running it through a stagnant pile of Prills. The first book gives a chemical break down of the Prills, the Magic Water and the Magic Oil that were being used at that time. We're working on a second book. The first book is history.

Jodasala Writes:

It is true that our hydrometer shows lower humidity. I thought that was a strange phenomena myself so I had a gage for humidity handy and I went and bought a humidifier and the humidity is lower in the room with the humidifier than in the rest of the house. What is also strange is that the way the house is set up the washer and drier are in a closet in Dana's room. Even with the washer and drier going the relative humidity is lower in her room with the humidifier running. I know the humidifier is working properly because she goes through about a gallon and a half in 24 hours. Now I know that the moisture level is high but it just doesn't register the same as regular humidity. I don't even pretend to grasp that one. It just goes on a list of things to ask when I get a chance. The most important thing is that Dana's allergies do so much better as a result of filling her room with prill humidity. That I can understand. We are waiting to see of it truly runs mold out of the bathroom that also adjoins her room. The room feels very comfortable with all that prill moisture in the air. Her room with the walk in closet, bathroom and utility closet is apprx. 500 sq. feet. A very large space. The hydrometer we have is not a fancy one ...

KEN LANG, JR. WRITES: (GLN #160 6/20/02)

David and Michael:
Had a great conversation with Jim yesterday. He is such a big help...
He is using 2 Sears Humidifiers each rated for 2600 sq ft. Using 4 Prill bags in each of the two 6 gallon tanks on each machine. This humidifier sells for $149.95 in Hanover PA. Have installed a smaller model, 2500 sq ft in an  associates friends house ... installing a 2600 model here in home / office asap ...will keep you posted. Ken
