Can water help you prevent and fight cancer and auto-immune diseases?
The short answer is Yes and No depending on the water you are drinking!
THE CALL
My name is Clay Rosson and I am one of the owners of City Water Filter. I know that you would expect me to say that filtering your water is good enough for preventing and treating cancer. If I said that, it wouldn’t be entirely correct. Although I am a firm believer that using reverse osmosis for drinking water is the best form of drinking water at our fingertips as opposed to tap water or bottled water. Let me explain what happened to me and how water saved me from dying from pancreatic cancer.
I was diagnosed with 3rd stage pancreatic cancer June of 2023. I had the tumor completely removed with margin from the head of my pancreas July 14, 2023. Only 10 to 15% of pancreatic cancer patients qualify for the Whipple Procedure which was the serious life-saving surgery that I underwent in Santa Barbara, California. The surgeon was somewhat surprised that when he got the tumor results back from pathology that the cells looked normal and well-differentiated (more about this later.) My surgeon from the Ridley-Tree Cancer Center in Santa Barbara was one of the best in the country. I was very fortunate to have him perform my surgery which I recovered from with no complications. I never did chemotherapy or radiation which were recommended by multiple oncologists from UCLA and my local oncology clinic in northern California. I PET scanned one time right after the surgery and was clear of any more tumors. I have done CA-19-9 and Signaterra blood tests (very sensitive blood test profiling the tumor and looking for dead cancer DNA in bloodstream) every three months. I have been non-detect for cancer ever since the surgery. I am literally a walking lottery ticket so far!
Tumors take 3 to 5 years to grow and develop. Like most people, I have had too much stress running multiple businesses, eating too much carbs and sugar, not exercising enough, not getting enough sunlight or sleep, and generally living a life out of balance. There was only one thing that I did correctly when I didn’t know that I had a tumor growing in my pancreas. I drank the right water.
I had found out about a certain type of highly purified water called Deuterium Depleted Water (DDW) at an anti-aging conference in Las Vegas just before COVID started in the Fall of 2019. Without going deep down the rabbit hole, basically it is supposed to protect you from radiation and cancer and strengthen your mitochondria. Cancer and autoimmune diseases result from weakened mitochondria. The right water being depleted of a certain isotope of water, deuterium, will strengthen your mitochondria. Deuterium is naturally occurring in our water on almost the entire planet at 155 ppm. You can get water depleted of deuterium and different concentrations. The water I was using comes from Russia has a concentration of 10 ppm deuterium instead of 155 ppm.
TIMELINE OF EVENTS
I started drinking the water for it’s health benefits of anti-aging and strengthening my mitochondria one year after I found out about it in early 2021 (not exactly sure.) I started slowly blending it with my filtered reverse osmosis water usually blending it 50/50 with my filtered reverse osmosis water due to the expense. There are several brands of DDW water. The one that I chose was called Litewater which can be found at http://www.drinklitewater.com. In August of 2022, I bought a whole pallet of 100 cases (4 two liter bottles per case) of Litewater DDW water. I had already been drinking a blended version of DDW water for a year and a half prior. At this point, I started drinking it unblended and pure. I once had my blood level tested for deuterium and I was close to 100 ppm rather than 155 ppm average for most people. Also, you need to understand that there isn’t any water filter that I can install in your home that can create DDW water at this time. So, you have to buy a bottled version of DDW water. DDW water is produced from an industrial process which separates heavier and lighter isotopes of water on an molecular isotopic level.
So the point here is I was doing everything wrong with lifestyle and diet, and the only thing I was doing correctly was drinking DDW water. I still had no idea that a tumor was growing inside my pancreas. I was breathing hydrogen and brown’s gas as well as drinking water that had dissolved hydrogen. I do think these other water-based technologies helped my situation though I wouldn’t think they could have kept the cancer under control like the DDW water.
During the Christmas of 2022, I turned yellow with jaundice and my eyes turning bright yellow, my urine went very dark, and my stools became very pale. I also had a week prior of feeling like I had a really bad flu before turning yellow. I can still remember my employees at the company Christmas gathering looking at me in total horror and worry. I was definitely in denial about having cancer. I though it was impossible because I had been drinking a water that protected me from cancer as well as the other water technologies that should have supported my body to fight cancer. It took six months for the Gastro-Intestinal Specialist to finally find my tumor though a process where the put ultrasound into your stomach. The procedure is called Endoscopic Ultrasound. I had to do the procedure twice before they found the tumor in the head of my pancreas blocking both my Bile duct and pancreatic duct. I had already lost about 40 pounds due to my body being unable to digest food while my ducts were being blocked by a tumor. I essentially had a mechanical problem going on in my digestion. Only surgery was going to save my life at this point.
If you look at pancreatic cancer cases, many many many times the patient lives only weeks to months after diagnosis and the cancer has already spread to multiple organs including veins, liver, and lungs. So you may ask why do I think the water made the difference? I only started drinking the water midway through my tumor growth. Remember, it takes 3 to 5 years to grow a tumor. My tumor probably started growing as early as 2017 to 2018. That means that I didn’t start drinking the DDW water until at least a year or two after the tumor had already started growing. So the water stopped the normal progression of how pancreatic cancer usually is a fatal diagnosis. I was so weak, emaciated, and yellow for an extended period of time. My doctor had told me that if I was older, I wouldn’t have survived the malnutrition. I was 53 when I turned yellow.
So once again, you may ask, how do I know it was the water that saved me? When the surgeon removed my tumor and sent it to pathology, the tumor looked like normal cells and was well-differentiated. That really isn’t normal for cancer cells which usually become very mutated and don’t resemble normal cells anymore. After skimming through a book called Deuterium Depletion: A New Way in Curing Cancer and Preserving Health by Gabor Somlyai PhD, I found the paragraph in the book that described exactly what my surgeon had described about the condition of my tumor being normal. Dr. Somlyai said that DDW’s effect on cancer cells is that the cells look normal and well-differentiated. Also, my tumor was relatively small and had a clear margin around it. Clear margin meaning it wasn’t able to spread. This is really unheard of with pancreatic cancer.
I continued drinking pure DDW water after the surgery, invested and started sleeping in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber, radically changed my diet to Keto and then carnivore radically lowering my sugar and carbohydrate consumption. I started taking a type of Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) oil from marijuana in the form of suppositories and enteric capsules from a company in Los Angeles area called Be Well Nano in conjunction with amygdalin from the apricot seed (also from Be Well Nano.) I don’t allow stress to be an option. I make sure I get enough sleep and good early morning sunlight and midday sunlight too. I choose happiness as my deserved right of existence. I no longer put pressures on myself to over-achieve. I also make sure I treat all people I come in contact with a more heart-centered approach.
So I used the best of allopathic modern medicine to save my life and remove the tumor and utilized diagnostics to help to make the best decisions on whether I should do chemotherapy and radiation. Based on the clear PET scan and non-detect blood testing for cancer screening, I decided that I would avoid chemotherapy and radiation until any future blood testing told me otherwise. As of now, over a year and 2 months later, I am fully recovered from the surgery, at a healthy weight, and most people are honestly shocked about my story. I tell most people that I should have been buried already and only the water kept that from happening.
So the moral of this story is that water is extremely important for our health and fighting disease. I would argue that it is more important than food. The only thing more important than water is air or oxygen. Cancer hates oxygen too. In Gabor Somlyai’s book, he describes how DDW water in combination with oxygen causes the apoptosis (cell destruction) of cancer cells. It has something to do with the concentration gradient of the deuterium being lower on the outside of the cancer cell compared to the higher concentration of deuterium in the cancer cell in combination with oxygen. Cancer cells are basically like yeast. They are multiplying out of control and use sugar as a fuel without the need for oxygen.
I think of drinking DDW water as my insurance policy. I still like sweets and carbs though I have much better control than I did before I got sick. I avoid high oxalate foods like spinach, chocolate, and almonds and most nuts. I’m still trying to kick one of my last vices being coffee which causes lowered circulation in your brain and body. I have definitely lowered my coffee consumption even though I haven’t completely stopped it. I am certainly not perfectly following a strict disciplined regimen everyday but I have stayed consistent with the four main legs of the stool of staying healthy with vital water, vital sunlight, vital nutrition, and vital air (oxygen). To focus on the basics, we get our bodies more in line with nature and disease-free health.
If you or someone you know is fighting cancer (which has become much more common), please contact me through the business or personally (clay@citywaterfilter.com.) I am very inspired to help others who have cancer take control of the disease rather than letting the medical system control the cancer patient with fear. You have a lot of options for treating cancer that aren’t so readily available when a person gets newly diagnosed. The most important aspect of fighting cancer or any other disease is called PMA or Positive Mental Attitude and also to be open the treating the disease holistically. I just used a good combination of holistic and allopathic medicine approach to overcome a very serious illness. I don’t consider myself cured. I am just a work in progress. I still have to put in the work everyday to stay healthy. The things I did to overcome cancer are what all of us need to do to stay healthy. You don’t need to have cancer to benefit from good sunlight, drinking purified water, getting your body oxygenated, and eating a majority whole food high fat and protein diet.
