Maybe you really are what you eat

You’ve heard the saying, “you are what you eat?”  Well perhaps this new research is shedding some truth on that statement.  Scientists in Stuttgart are experimenting with the idea of water ‘memory’.  Does water have memory?   This question is directing their research and might have an enormous impact on how we think about the world.  Here is a link to their work:  Water has memory

What interests me most about this research is how this may change our approach to food, particularly meat.  Our human bodies are made up of between 50%-75% water.  So water is important for our physical, mental and emotional well being.  As a species we are aware of the dangers of dirty water, water that is full of bacteria.  Pathogens in the water can make us ill, and can even be deadly.  But what about the dangers of water memory?  What if water carries memories, and retains imprints of energies it has been exposed to?  What impact does ingesting the memory of water has on our own physical well-being?

I’m thinking here of the billions of animals that are raised and killed every year in the world.  We are becoming more and more aware of the impact of our farming practices on animal health and food quality.  Scientists also continue to contribute work that suggests animals as not the feelingless and thoughtless creatures we once believed them to be.  We can observe changes in animal behavior and physiology and as a result infer emotions.  Animals behave emotionally showing fear, pleasure, excitement, anger and anxiety.  So I am left to wonder what impact trauma and fear has on the water memory of animals and how this memory, when ingested,  my harm us on a cellular level?  In other words, how does what we eat (and how it was grown or raised and harvested or killed) and its energy imprint through water effect our mental and physical health?
