Basis Of New "pH Solutions"
{xtypo_dropcap}W{/xtypo_dropcap}hen Alpha Omega Labs first announced the introduction of H3O and HRx Concentrates in January (2001), it was based on a contractual arrangement with another company for the development of food, beverage and nutraceutical applications, worldwide - so stated a sidebar announcement on Alpha Omega's home page.
Subsequent research on Alpha Omega's part uncovered an unusually high level of cadmium (Cd) in the first H3O solution, which lead to AO's quest to produce its own "pH solutions" using a new, emerging technology called "scalar wave."
The idea of using scalar wave technology to alter and enhance the properties of various natural compounds, without actually changing any of the underlying chemistry, is a concept that is heretical to the orthodox scientific community. However, in practical, real-world terms, several companies have already successfully introduced products that empirically prove that this science is real - and that it works.
The science has been proven by the likes of NatureWell Inc., a U.S. company that succeeded in taking a solution containing feverfew, a herbal long known and prescribed for the treatment of headaches, and creating a product that has been clinically shown to be effective (and rapidly so) in the treatment of migraine headaches. The resulting products, MigraSpray (tm) and MigraDaily (tm), are touted as being "homeopathic," but only because that label is the closest the company could come to finding a regulatory niche into which it could define the underlying basis for its products. In actuality, NatureWell's formulators have never dabbled in the Homeopathic Pharmacoepia (U.S. or U.K.)
Another pioneer in the creation of products that employ scalar wave technology is Tainio Technologies near Cheney, Washington (USA). Its president, Bruce Tainio, has long been recognized as a pioneer in the field and several of that company's products successfully employ scalar wave propagation.
Alpha Omega sought to employ the same technology to product superior "pH balancing solutions." The technology is exciting for two reasons: (1) The resulting solutions have properties that are "drug-like" in their medicinal effect and immediacy of action, and (2) They involve taking compounds that already have regulatory approval in most countries and changing their vibration, but not their underlying chemistry. Therefore, what you end up with are products that require no regulatory approval - even if "medicinal claims" issues remain open to debate. Moreover, the products are safe and actually difficult to abuse - not at all like real pharmacologicals.
The solutions created by Alpha Omega Labs and its partners are a good example. H3O Concentrate involves the application of scalar wave technology to an aqueous solution of sulphuric acid. (The product gets its name because a by-product of the process itself is hydronium, or "H3O"). Sulphuric acid is not a drug. In the U.S., for instance, it is on that country's food & drug law books as "G.R.A.S.," or Generally Regarded as Safe, making Alpha Omega's H3O Concentrate perfectly legal under CFR 21, subsection 184.1095 (“Direct Substances Affirmed GRAS”).
Likewise, HRx, which applies scalar wave technology to an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide, is protected in the U.S. under CFR 21, subsection 184.1631 ("Direct Substances Affirmed GRAS"). According to Paul Winniewski, an FDA specialist and senior associate at the U.S. legal firm of Gronek & Armstrong (Chicago, Illinois), which represents Alpha Omega in the U.S., "These solutions (H3O and HRx) fall into a very novel and protected area of prevailing drug laws. On the one hand, Alpha Omega Labs can't be expected to seek approval for substances that are already approved. But from the FDA's perspective, how can it be argued that these products are substantially different if the technology employed is not yet recognized by orthodox science? If you want to regulate something, you first have to acknowledge its existence."
To emphasize just how "cutting edge" Alpha Omega's journey was into scalar wave technology was and how "against the grain" it was within orthodox science, we sought the input of world-noted scalar wave authority, Dr. Thomas Beardon. (Parts of our interviews with Dr. Beardon were committed to video and can be viewed in our video gallery). According to Dr. Beardon, the reason that scalar wave technology and its practical applications are so anathema to orthodox science is that it undermines "established models" in physics and chemistry. "The scientific method today is under assault by a critical mass of rank-and-file academics who behave like fundamentalists. Instead of changing their models to include new, provably repeatable scientific phenomena, they'd rather use politics to discredit the science." This rest of this month's issue of the Ashwin is devoted to reports from field concerning applications for H3O and HRx. Although we find the reports we reproduce here credible, it is provided for information and research purposes only. Nothing contained on this page should be construed as a representation that H3O or HRx are intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease, except where otherwise noted. Our prior focus is research.
Enormous Potential
In OB/GYN Applications
Alpha Omega Labs is now testing a vaginal suppository which could be used in conjunction a broad range of vaginitis conditions which have a microbial basis. It could also be used for yeast infections, STD's, and even as a prophylactic to prevent pregnancies.
"We already know there are no toxicological issues," notes AO master herbalist, James Carr. "And for most cases, we know that efficacy is there, as well. So now it's about consumer acceptability and, in applicable countries, the usual regulatory hurdles."
Carr notes that women who wish to obtain the benefits without waiting would do well to use the H3O solution at the 1:85 ratio (1.5 tablespoons to a gallon of water). An effective, though not necessarily convenient, protocol calls for holding the solution for a minimum of 10 minutes before release.
Again, there are no toxicological issues or contraindications to worry about using this approach.
Sports Drinks That Work
A lot of legitimate complaints have arisen from the sports training community about scientific research that's more confusing than useful, sports beverages that really don't work, and comments (most recently in the Wall Street Journal) that the brand leader, Gatorade (made by Quaker Oats), has built an empire based on questionable research. (The argument that athletes need the kind of electrolyte combinations found in Gatorade turn out to be true only for those endurance athletes who go in excess of 60 minutes or more of intense cardiovascular activity -- hardly the case for 99.9% of your neighborhood gym visitors, or even the majority of professional athletes!)
A far more exciting sports beverage would be one that increased strength and endurance regardless of how long you'd been working out.
According to a variety of reports we have received from the field, in both humans and animals, the internal use of HRx brings both increased strength and endurance - but not in all subjects.
One customer in Texas who breeds race horses told that, "We put it (HRx) in their drinking water, and although it doesn't make the horses run faster, it definitely makes them run fast longer...
Several subjects who weight train, including an Alpha Omega Labs staffer, have noted that HRx increases both strength and repetitions in their weight training routines. As one staffer noted, "The weight difference, for instance, on bench pressing was modest - I'll do 310 instead of 280 lbs... but instead of five or six reps in the morning, I can do ten - even when I'm not feeling all that great." Of course, the results have varied from person to person - and on the amount of HRx solution and its strength. Another factor we are seeing is cumulative benefit over time. Some of the benefits are realized in the first day - but others can take weeks to fully realize.
One of Alpha Omega Labs' long term goals it to partner with a beverage company to make HRx-based beverages available to the fitness market. Currently, there is no widely marketed sports beverage which alkalizes the body and increases strength and endurance.
As more research results are made available, and the benefits of HRx are more conclusively known and publicized, we feel it is only a matter of time before a real sports beverage is made available to the public.
