Silica water is not carbonated. Fiji water, Volvic, Spritzer are all still waters. Here is a link to silica rich mineral waters

Thank you very much. I didn’t realize they were still. I will add this to the incremental changes I am making. Grateful for the support and answer.

Laurie, I saw your husband’s great video about adding silica to water, then filtering it through Britta filter. Very clear video. Why a Britta filter specifically and not another filter?

Glad you fund the video. My husband and I have made several videos. My husband tested several filters and the Brita filtered out aluminum and did not remove silica. Here are his testing results.

Laurie, do you know if silica water will help chelate any other heavy metals? Thanks!

I wish it did but it doesn't.

Laurie,
Just posted this on the other thread...
Do you have any information on the EveryDropWater brand filters found in a whole lot of refrigerators?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Neurogrowth & A Warm Welcome To Our Community!
Thanks for sharing your concern and I hope the non-carbonated silica rich mineral waters that Laurie provided are helpful to you. I am curious to know if it is only when you consume carbonated beverages that you experience the digestive upset mentioned? The reason I ask is because food sensitivities and conditions such as IBS and SIBO for example, can produce the same symptoms.
This supportive community offers many opportunities to learn and share insights. While you have already discovered the wealth of knowledge via our community forums, there are additional resources on the site that I hope serve to empower you. The
Primer is a fantastic resource exploring areas such as the science behind the APOE gene and the lifestyle factors that impact its expression. It is beautifully compiled by Stavia, a physician, member and E4/E4.
How To Get The Most Out Of The ApoE4.Info Website is a brilliant guide for navigating the site more effectively and finding information most relevant to you.
We look forward to your continued feedback and questions!
Again, a warm welcome:)

Thanks Gina, I’ve been reading through those sections, and then repeating my reads through them. I’ve been cautious to post anything until now - wanting to avoid asking questions that were already answered elsewhere. I’ll try to keep doing that as much as my patience allows. But sometimes my curiosity gets the better of me.
Re: SIBO and IBS - I think I don’t fit some of the primary criteria such as frequent abdominal pain.
I definitely have food sensitivities and over a lifetime have figured out some important food to avoid and which sensitivities are triggered with various food combinations. I believe some of these foods sensitivities have underlying relationships to other health conditions I have. So this may explain my intolerance for carbonation. I’ll keep an eye on those issues in case I see an uptick in more symptoms that match. Thanks for your support!
