We keep hearing and reading that tap water in Germany is of particularly good quality, and indeed water treatment plants do good work despite increasing water pollution. As we have also found in this channel, however, our "drinking water," which comes everywhere from the pipes, is not only contaminated with heavy metals, hormones, various chemicals, medications, microplastics and other pollutants, but from a biophysical perspective it is also dead.
Unfortunately, it is in the nature of things that its structure is destroyed through treatment and conveyance. Even after further in-house filtration of the water using the best water filter system on the market, including carbon and reverse osmosis filters, the water becomes extremely clean and pure, but if it is not actively revitalized, it remains dead.
One method for revitalization is the use of (E)ffective (M)icroorganisms fired in ceramic. Effective microorganisms - in short EM - are a selected mixture of life-promoting bacteria. They help in nature wherever natural biological processes have fallen out of balance. Microorganisms are the foundation of all life. In agriculture, they prepare the soil so that plants can thrive and grow. They are found both inside and on the bodies of humans and animals. They are practically "everywhere". On a single "empty" teaspoon there are actually more microorganisms than there are people on Earth.
The life-giving effect of microorganisms was researched in the sixties by Japanese Prof. Dr. Teruo Higa. Among thousands of different microorganisms, he extracted both those that cause decay, putrefaction and unpleasant odors, and those that promote growth and health. Whether growth or decay occurs depends on which microorganisms predominate. EM technology deals with this science.
Effective microorganisms consist of a mixed culture of approximately 80 selected, naturally occurring microorganism species from 10 genera and five families. EM are completely non-toxic and contain no genetically modified organisms.
When clay is mixed with this selected multi-microbe mixture using a special process, these microorganisms produce life-promoting substances after a certain time. The clay is then fired into small pieces with as much surface area as possible. The form of 1-2cm long tubes is commonly used and these are called "EM-ceramic pipes". Several hundred of these can then be installed in a type of cartridge, into which the water to be revitalized flows in at one end and out again at the other end. As water flows past the ceramic pipes, the life-promoting substances fired in the clay cause the water clusters to break down, thereby restoring the water's original state. The surface tension of the water is reduced and you obtain the desired energization of the water. EM-ceramic acts as an antioxidant, binds odors, and counteracts putrefaction and mold. Water therefore stays fresh longer and most importantly: it is taken up much better by the cells of humans, plants, and animals. - If all this sounds too theoretical, it's best to try a sip of water that has been energized with the help of EM-ceramic (here⬅️). The water feels noticeably softer in the mouth and has a different taste. Plants grow better and animals prefer it to "normal" drinking water from the tap. By the way, the EM-ceramic pipes do not wear out in this process.
