Sakthi Foundation - Pancha Bhoota Healing
Alcohol is an inhibitor of anti-diuretic hormone. This hormone helps kidneys in retaining body water. So if alcohol is consumed in the previous night , the kidneys cannot hold the needed water.

We do not know the exact mechanism by which this happens but the clue is that alcohol might also intervene with kidneys function of maintaining blood pressure.

The alcohol is present in the remedy in order to keep it fresh for many years.

However, if you are still concerned, follow the directions of our Flower and Gem Essences used in pregnancy and dilute the drops in water which has just boiled, allow to cool and then drink. This will allow all the alcohol to evaporate off the essence without reducing its effectiveness.

Why do you use alcohol?

QUESTIONS
We use alcohol as our solvent because it is non-toxic (in small doses) and because it extracts the components from an herb better than water, glycerine or your own digestion. Also, many active constituents are not water or glycerine soluble. This allows for better assimilation and success with herbs.

What is the recommended minimum-maximum salary ratio?

NTUC Online : Guidelines
NWC recommended minimum-maximum ratio of 1:1.5 or less. However, the ratio may vary according to the different nature of the job/industry. Jobs that are knowledge-based or those with a longer learning curve may have a higher minimum-maximum ratio. The rationale for a min-max ratio is to address the morale issue of the younger workers in a seniority based wage system. It also helps to minimize the risk of older workers being less cost competitive.

Adolescents with substance abuse problems are often polydrug users (they use more than one drug) so identifying a problem with an illicit or prescription drug may also suggest an alcohol problem.

What water should I use?

Aquarium FAQ
Generally, plain old tap water is fine. You must add a water conditioner to remove the chlorine/chloramine. If you live on well water, obtain a pH test kit and see where you're at. Mid 6 to 8 should be fine for most fish as they can adapt. Never use the pH buffer chemicals. They only cause problems and make water changes super complicated. Unless you're keeping a marine tank or trying to breed discus, I do not recommend reverse osmosis water.

Yes you can. Mineral buildup is a problem where the water is heated, i.e. in the tank. The water is being cooled in the tubing so mineral buildup is not possible in the tubing. Mineral buildup in the tank can be minimized by using a powerful heater so that you can have low operating temperatures. Mineral buildup is not likely at temperatures below 1400 F.
