Silicade Measurements for making 2 and 4 gallons

 For making 2 gallons of Silicade 

Link to the recipe is at the end.  

1. Add 3 level dashes of sodium silicate to a one-cup Pyrex container 

2. Add 1/4 cup of tap water to the one-cup Pyrex measuring container 

3. Heat the contents of the Pyrex measuring cup to boiling and boil for at least 30 seconds 

4. Dilute immediately with a small amount of unheated tap water 

5. Pour all the contents of the Pyrex measuring cup into a 2 gallon container 

6. Fill the 2 gallon container with unheated tap water to the 2 gallon mark on the container 

7. Add 2 level dashes of sodium bisulfate to the 2 gallon container 

8. Stir the mixture thoroughly and then filter the mixture through a Brita filter pitcher 

9. After filtering, add 1 level dash of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) to the mixture (adjust the pH according to the recipe) 

10. Stir Silicade to dissolve the baking soda

For making 4 gallons of Silicade 

1. Add 6 level dashes of sodium silicate to a one-cup Pyrex container 

2. Add 1/2 cup of tap water to the one-cup Pyrex measuring container 

3. Heat the contents of the Pyrex measuring cup to boiling and boil for at least 30 seconds 

4. Dilute immediately with a small amount of unheated tap water 

5. Pour all the contents of the Pyrex measuring cup into a 4 gallon container 

6. Fill the 4 gallon container with unheated tap water to the 4 gallon mark on the container 

7. Add 4 level dashes of sodium bisulfate to the 4 gallon container

8. Stir the mixture thoroughly and then filter the mixture through a Brita filter pitcher 

9. After filtering, add 2 level dashes of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) to the mixture (adjust the pH according to the recipe). 

10. Stir Silicade to dissolve the baking soda

Pregnancy - silica water and aluminum

Excerpt from Dennis N Crouse's book "Prevent Alzheimer's Autism and Stroke" 

Page 154 book

Kristien Van Dyke in 2000 measured the silicon (OSA) content of blood serum in different aged individuals486. She found very high levels of OSA in infants less than a year old and extremely low levels in pregnant mothers. Van Dyke came to a startling conclusion:

“The explanation of the high silicon levels of the infant group, especially (<1yr), may be that pregnant mothers offer their silicon to the growing fetus …”

The graph of the Van Dyke’s data brings this into sharper focus in the following figure:

Since soluble silicon in the blood serum is OSA, is it possible there are high levels of OSA in breastmilk? In 1990 Tanaka found levels of silica in breastmilk of 470 to 670ug/liter from 1 week to 1 month of birth487. These findings suggest that OSA is a required nutrient that mothers have evolved to supply to the fetus and infant. OSA not only lowers the levels of absorbed aluminum in the brain455 but also improves bone mineral density (BMD) and strength474,483. Therefore regular OSA supplementation is recommended during and after pregnancy to protect the fetus and infant from aluminum absorption and improve their bone strength.

OSA can be found in some mineral waters.  You need to drink 3 to 4 cups of water a day.  Here is a link to a list of waters.  You can also make your own silica water called Silicade.  Silicade is a recipe developed by Dennis N Crouse.  List of silica waters
