Lies People Tell About Water – Part 3: Structured/Hexagonal Water, Water Memory

We've covered water fluoridation and special waters, so let's move on to the properties of water! Did you know that the water in your body is special? It's called structured water, or hexagonal water. Or at least that's what some would have you believe so that they can sell you devices that will "structure" the water you drink and make it better for you. Also, did you know that water responds to emotions, and has memory, just like humans? No wait, that's another lie with zero substantiation. Man, people really lie a lot about water, don't they? Let's wrap up the trilogy and debunk some charlatans, shall we?

Check out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!

I'm thinking of setting up a business to sell "Concentrated Water". This is made by a special process of heating ordinary water and removing the excess and unwanted steam to create a much concentrated and powerful form of water, which I call Concentrated Water (not to be confused with consecrated water).

This new concentrated form of water is 20x smaller, 20x lighter to carry but also 20x more refreshing, and yet it only costs 10x more!

Self proclaimed experts: "Stagnant water full of death and decay".
Meanwhile stagnant water: *being full of bacteria, algae and other living organisms*

The people who made Hexagonal water took “hexagons are the bestagons” too literally

If vortexing makes structured water, can’t I just stir tap water with a spoon to structure it?

I really enjoy listening to debunkers debunk... but something about the way YOU do it, Professor Dave, not sure if it's your eloquent snarkiness, pandering sarcasm, fluent vocabulary, or unapologetic glibness, that makes your eviscerations so satisfying, but I LOVE IT! LOL

If "structured water" is ice, wouldn't it actually have less energy? Fantastic take-down, Professor Dave.

In my kitchen I have a machine that energizes water. It is called a kettle.

I love science not only because it explains what I see, but because it allows me to ask bigger and bigger questions every time I seek answers. So much of my curiosity stems from what scientific knowledge I have. I can't imagine not having that base from which I wonder. I don't know why anyone would subscribe to a lie when real science is so much more magical, and so much more beautiful.

Go home, Neo, you're drunk.

I've talked about the bullshit my stepdad believes on your videos before, but he and my mom were so incredibly taken by structured water. And he's got a little light-up circuit board with a resin disc with petals in it on top. 200 some odd dollars and apparently you can program the water with things like nutrients all the way to different medications. These people have to be stopped.

"Today, modern science has recognized that water has memory."

Damn, I guess we have been drinking dinosaur piss and diarrhea water all these time.

[mythics]

could you imagine giving these people a chemistry set. We would have new elements within days

Thank you very much. I'm so happy you address the lies that "Dr." Masaru Emoto tells. My parents have his book and have read it. And then told all of those lies to my entire family. This happened when I was still in kindergarten. So I was scared to say something that has a negative meaning and I didn't think they were wrong. Now I have something I need to show to my parents. I love these videos!

"Humans are like batteries" is what you'd tell a gullible younger sibling to get them to put a fork in an outlet

[norielsylvire]

I heard a rap that said "Water remembers the flowers you put in it but somehow it forgets about all the poop it's had in it."

[DiThi]

"structured water is energized water" translation: "ice is hot"

Pseudo scientists: “Dave just uses big complex words to trick people into believing him!”

Also pseudo scientists: Uses big complex words to make people buy their hundred dollar products that does absolutely nothing

I've been watching your videos for the past four years, along with other educational sources on YouTube, throughout my college journey. I graduated with a degree in Clinical Laboratory Science, and I want to thank you because I don't think I could have done it without your educational content.

However, I just recently discovered your debunk videos on your Debunks/Discussions/Debates playlist. I've been binge-watching them and have truly enjoyed them. They've made me rethink many beliefs I had regarding pseudoscience. I have to admit that I believed in many of the topics you debunked, like Quantum Mysticism, Billy Carson, and claims about water. Your videos have made me question those beliefs.

I believe what you're doing with these debunk videos is critical, especially in today's internet age where misinformation is spreading like never before. Many people lack basic scientific knowledge and will believe whatever is presented to them.

Keep up the great content! I'm looking forward to more of your debunk videos and especially hope you address Dr. Eric Berg and Sadhguru in the future, as you mentioned in your debunk videos about water. They have a large audience, and it now scares me how much pseudoscience they're spreading. Even I have fallen victim to their misinformation.

My favorite part was when Dave said that spinning water in a vortex is not going to do the same thing as electrolysis and split the hydrogen from the oxygen. That made me laugh because boat propellers would be making flammable hydrogen in the water all over the place lol. There response of course would be “no you don’t get it, there has to be a SPECIAL vortex for it to work.” To borrow a catch phrase from Doctor Evil -

This video series truly displays how important it is to be scientifically literate, whether or not it effects your profession. 99% of what these people say is either obvious bullshit or literally meaningless.
