About
Robert Slovak industry book on the subject of POU (Point of Use) Reverse Osmosis, he became a well-known figure in the water industry. In 1989 Water Factory Systems was purchased by CUNO Inc, a global leader in fluid treatment. Since then, it was acquired by the 3M Corporation, which continues to market many of their original products. Robert officially retired from the US water industry in 1996 and went on to bring his knowledge and experience to Brazil, Asia and other international markets. He put together a team and published Agualatinomerica magazine to establish a legitimate water equipment and education infrastructure in Brazil and South America. His “students” continue to play a major role in Brazil’s water industry.
Great Overview International Robert Slovak is a degreed Mechanical and Aeronautical & Astronautical engineer best known for cofounding Water Factory Systems in the early 1970’s. He and his brother were among the early developers of Reverse Osmosis (RO) technology and its many applications. Their successful innovations encompassed home and office RO drinking water systems, bottled water production, laboratory purification, hemodialysis, seawater desalination, microchip production, bottled water production, water vending, spot-free vehicle washing and scores more.
As a result of the rapid growth of RO applications, Robert’s ongoing seminars and a best-selling
In 2004, while in a remote location of Brazil, Robert became seriously ill and was introduced to an obscure 1897 medical discovery known as Original Quinton Marine Plasma (after the famous revolutionary biologist René Quinton). Robert attributes his "jungle" survival to its remarkable healing properties. This ocean-harvested nutraceutical contains the entire Periodic Table of organo-complexed minerals & trace elements as well as essential and rare micronutrients and has been continuously produced for more than a century. Having been an avid student of health and nutrition science for decades, Robert recognized the remarkable history and efficacy of Quinton Marine Plasma in supporting a wide range of the most difficult health conditions and has distributed Quinton Marine Plasma to leadingedge clinics and health practitioners worldwide since 2008.
For the past nine years Robert’s focus has been on bringing a new nutraceutical breakthrough called “Molecular Hydrogen” (H2) to the medical profession and health-minded consumers. This “smallest molecule in the Universe” has been overlooked for its remarkable health benefits until now. With more than 800 worldwide health studies on the subject, physicians, researchers and clinicians have been proclaiming Molecular Hydrogen (H2) as the most unique and versatile antioxidant and signaling molecule. In 2010 Robert codeveloped a practical way for everyone to benefit from this discovery by creating the first reactive hydrogen tablet that infuses water with a supersaturated concentration of molecular hydrogen (H2) gas. This proven nutraceutical is now in its 9th year of distribution in both professional medical and consumer markets. In 2011 Robert became a founding investor in the Quicksilver Scienti c Corp. that was developing a groundbreaking new technology to deliver nutrients and nutraceuticals to the cells. It is referred to as nano-encapsulated liposomes. In just a few years, Quicksilver Scientific established its scientific dominance in this growing field and is currently expanding its product scope and global distribution. Recently, several of the key formulas offered by Quicksilver Scientific have become a cornerstone in the ongoing battle against the Coronavirus.

While attending medical and wellness conferences throughout North America, Robert recognized the persistent minefield of waterrelated misinformation encountered by doctors,
patients and consumers alike – that’s after spending nearly 50 years in the water technology industry. This unsettling experience soon turned into the motivation to do something about it and Water & Wellness was established in 2017. A team with more than 150 years of combined experience was assembled to create a product line of advanced Point of Use (POU) and Point of Entry (POE) water treatment systems for health and wellness minded consumers. In addition, a line of synergistic water additives was formulated for the consumer market including Quinton and QuintEssential minerals & trace elements, Active pH Restore alkalizing mineral powder, Active H2 ULTRA molecular H2 tablets and Active Ribose C high-bioavailability vitamin C. Recently, Robert’s 20-year interest in Deuterium Depleted Water (DDW) took a new direction forward. With the revival of Soviet-era research from the 1960's and recent announcements explaining the profound health benefits of DDW, Robert and his associate acted quickly in creating a new company, Litewater Scienti c. Their strategy is to offer a more advanced and affordable brand of DDW for consumers and health practitioners. The Litewater brand of DDW is now available on www.drinklitewater.com in 1/2-liter (5 ppm) and 2-liter (10 ppm) bottles throughout North America. Robert continues to be a very active figure in the rapidly expanding role of water in the wellness and anti-aging community, making appearances and presentations worldwide.

Then something equally amazing occurred only several hundred million years ago. Evolving sea life ventured out to leave the ocean and seek a terrestrial existence.
In 1904 Rene Quinton published his groundbreaking ndings in, L’eau de Mer Milieu Organique (Seawater, Organic Plasma). It revealed that the composition and proportions of the elements in seawater were strikingly similar to the blood plasma of the preponderance of animal species. He proceeded to demonstrate this to the medical elite of Europe by transfusing the blood of canines with a meticulously prepared (micro ltered and unheated) isotonic solution of seawater harvested from the Atlantic Ocean. Rene Quinton referred to this precious uid as Plasma de Quinton (used as a blood plasma replacement in both World Wars).

When considered in this light, it is no surprise that our bodies respond so profoundly to the e ects of this gift from the sea. Our land-locked bodies strive each day to recreate the primordial marine environment from which our single-celled ancestors emerged. A complete spectrum of minerals and trace elements is necessary to carry out virtually every physiological process in the body. Everything in the human body responds to the condition of our extra-cellular uid – the “Internal Ocean” or “Milieu Interior” as René Quinton often referred to it.

“QUITON SAVED MY LIFE”
— ROBERT SLOVAK—
RENE QUINTON STORY A LIFE-SAVING DISCOVERY
Quinton is named after the pioneering French physiologist and biologist René Quinton, who more than 100 years ago discovered the similarities between the composition of human blood plasma and oceanic water. René Quinton had worked at the Laboratoire de Pathologie Physiologique in the Collège de France. He studied comparative temperatures and salt concentrations between di erent species and demonstrated in his Law of Marine Constancy that in order for an evolving organism to successfully leave the ocean, it had to take this life-supporting solution with it and that our internal body terrain today has evolved from the sea.
“We are truly a living marine aquarium in which some billion cells

are swimming,” René Quinton said.
René Quinton’s research led him to identify the plankton bloom vortex in the ocean where microscopic phytoplankton release a nutrientrich mix of bioactive minerals, amino acids, nucleic acid, antioxidants, polysaccharides and unsaturated fatty acids into the water.
He called this uid “marine plasma”. It came to be known as Quinton. QUINTON’S BABIES René Quinton operated on the principle that the internal environment of the body determines its overall health status. He believed that if your cells had the right balance of su cient nutrients then the immune system would be strong enough to resist illness and ght infection. René Quinton’s rst Marine Dispensary opened in Paris in 1907. Hundreds of mothers brought their babies to the clinic for treatment at a time when malnutrition, infant cholera and gastro-intestinal infections killed thousands.
“For more than 100 years Doctors and clinicians all over the world have used and prescribed Quinton to help their patients overcome and prevent illness and to promote optimum well-being.”

Quinton is made from the essential elements for life. It is seawater harvested from a particular point in the Atlantic Ocean that is rich in phytoplankton and zooplankton. Why? Modern health experts are in agreement that the most serious de ciency in human health is the lack of nutrients in our diets. Seawater can help combat this by offering up to 78 minerals and trace elements back into our diets, naturally and safely.

The health bene ts of molecular hydrogen, H2, is one of the most remarkable recent discoveries in nutraceutical science.
Approximately 3.6 billion years ago Molecular Hydrogen served as the original energy source for Primordial cellular life, fueling its metabolic processes and protecting it from the hostile environment of early Earth. Without it, life would not exist. Health researchers worldwide are rediscovering these forgotten bene ts in a big way. There are now more than 1000 peer-reviewed scienti c papers*, including animal and human studies, demonstrate that Molecular Hydrogen can be a bene cial nutrient in nearly every facet of human physiology, especially at the cellular level.

WHAT IS MOLECULAR HYDROGEN? Our Active H2 Ultra tablets are a groundbreaking new supplement for adding the bene ts of high-dose Molecular Hydrogen to pure drinking water. As the tablet reacts, millions of tiny hydrogen nanobubbles infuse and saturate the water. Hydrogen is the rst and most abundant element in the Universe! Two atoms combine to form hydrogen gas (H2) the smallest and most mobile molecule. This exclusive property gives it a greater cellular bioavailability than any other nutrient or nutraceutical. Molecular Hydrogen can rapidly diffuse into cells, mitochondria, and uids throughout the body to deliver its unique and abundant bene ts.

Deuterium is a Heavier Isotope* of Hydrogen
All isotopes of hydrogen combine with oxygen to form water. The smallest and lightest element, Hydrogen, actually consists three slightly different forms called isotopes. Their scientific names are protium, deuterium and tritium (this is the last we will hear about tritium because it is all but non-existent on earth).


*Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number. All isotopes of any element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in each atom.

• The smallest and lightest element, Hydrogen, actually consists three slightly different forms called isotopes. Their scientific names are protium, deuterium and tritium (this is the last we will hear about tritium because it is all but non-existent on earth). • Long before life existed, protium and deuterium hydrogen isotopes combined with oxygen in different ways to form molecules of water. But until the 1930's it was assumed there was only one form of hydrogen - comprised of a proton and an electron. Then researcher Harold
Urey discovered another stable hydrogen isotope and named it deuterium.
The extra neutron in deuterium makes it twice as heavy as normal hydrogen.
Deuterium is a hydrogen atom with a neutron added to its nucleus, making it twice the weight of protium. This long-overlooked difference would become a game-changer in our fundamental understanding of biology and physiology. Protium (what was once thought to be the sole form of hydrogen) is the only atom that does not have a neutron, making it uniquely qualified to fuel the body's production of ATP energy. Both protium and deuterium atoms combine with oxygen to make what are referred to as "light" and "heavy" water molecules - three different ones (see illustration next page): Protium + Protium + Oxygen (H2O) - 99.957% (Light water) Protium + Deuterium + Oxygen (HDO) - 0.043% (heavy water*) Deuterium + Deuterium + Oxygen (D2O) - nil (heavy water) Scientists have now learned that mitochondria cannot distinguish a protium atom from a deuterium atom and this is where the problem lies for all living things...
*Water containing HDO molecules is sometimes referred to as "semi-heavy" water.

Some Startling Biological Properties of Heavy Water, D2O Deuterium atoms act like a hidden time-bomb when they are admitted into the mitochondria along with protium atoms. They literally sabotage a key mitochondrial mechanism, the ADP/ATP Synthase, and inhibit energy production and replication. Biologists have also discovered that deuterium atoms, due to their stronger chemical bonding, act as inhibitors of vital biochemical reactions.
Six Drops of Heavy Water in Every Liter of Water
Deuterium Exists Everywhere there is Hydrogen Deuterium was formed soon after the Big Bang when a fraction of hydrogen atoms took up a neutron. 75% of the known Universe IS hydrogen • All water on Earth and the known Universe contain deuterium. • All living things of every species, plant and animal contain deuterium. • All major food categories, proteins, carbohydrates, fats, fiber and vitamins contain deuterium.

Deuterium is Present in All Water on Earth
• All seawater - 155 ppm (less at the poles due to meteorological separation of isotopes • All tap water, well water, spring water, artesian water - 150 ppm* • All distilled, Reverse Osmosis (RO), bottled, purified, deionized water - 140-150 ppm** • All prepared beverages, soft drinks, energy drinks, etc. - 150-155 ppm • All fresh and bottled fruit and vegetable juices - 150-155 ppm • All coffee, tea, milk - 150-155 ppm • Himalayan glacial - melt water - 133 ppm • Siberian glacial - melt water - 125 ppm • Antarctic glacial - melt water - 89 ppm
* "ppm" is an abbreviation for "parts per million". In the facts above, "150 ppm" means there are 150 deuterium atoms for every 1-million atoms of hydrogen.
** There are rare sources of natural waters that may contain slightly less deuterium.
Meteorological influences over the past 20,000 years have increased the global distribution of deuterium in liquid water and vegetation. This has likely resulted in a corresponding increase in endogenous deuterium in animal species – predicted as much as 30%. 2.5 to 2.75% of Earth’s water is fresh water. 75% of this is frozen in glaciers and icebergs. Only 1% is available for all living things and their needs.
99.9% of humans drink water with 145 - 155 ppm deuterium.
The Deuterium Level in Water has Varied on Earth over Time
Body Fluids Concentration of the Most Important Constituents in Human Body Fluids There is 3-5X the deuterium in the body than the most important constituents needed for life. • Calcium • Magnesium

• Potassium • Glucose
3.3 –5.1 mmol/l
• Deuterium

3.5 – 5.1 mmol/l
The human body contains 2 grams of deuterium.
Protium Fuels Mitochondria
Deuterium Damages DNA, Mitochondria and Enzymes - Leading to Apoptosis (Cell Death) Energy production happens in the mitochondria - the factory powerhouse of the cell. Hydrogen protons and electrons are the fuel that keep it all running. Deuterium mechanically distorts RNA & DNA molecules causing errors in transcription. Reduced bio-energetics promotes an accumulation of DNA errors, cellular mutation, and aging. Deuterium damages the ATP* synthase nano-motors that produce ATP Deuterium affects the Electron Transport Chain** compromising oxygen carrying capacity. *ATP: Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a complex organic chemical that provides energy to drive most of the processes in living cells.
**Electron Transport Chain: A series of complexes in the mitochondria that transfer electrons from donors to receptors coupled with the transfer of protons (H+ ion) across a membrane to produce ATP.
Deuterium Damages Mitochondria
Inside each mitochondria, within the Electron Transport Chain there are thousands of submicroscopic protein nano-motors called ATP synthase (ATPase) that synthesize ATP, the body’s main energy carrying molecule. The ATP (ATPase) nano-motors turn by the force How does deuterium clog the wheel
of hydrogen protons, but when a proton comes paired with a neutron, the 2X heavier deuteron causes the nano motors to torque and stutter, decreasing ATP production and damaging the
mitochondrial matrix.

Time
ATP synthase functions very much like a motor. There is a stator which feeds protons to make the rotor spin at 9,000 RPM to make 10 - 60 million ATP in every cell per second. ADP comes in and ATP goes out. The motor generates a magnetic field which attracts oxygen atoms to the hydrogen protons to form metabolic water, and a differential of protons on either side of the membrane continually cause the flow of protons into the motor. Unfortunately, ATP synthase is not designed to receive a neutron, thus causing 1,500-10,000 deuterium disruptions in each cell per second.
Deuterium Affects DNA Replication
“Even at very low levels, deuterium could slow down DNA replication processes, or otherwise interferes with the repair of DNA damaged by solar radiation.�
Bild W, Stefanescu I, Haulica I, Lupusoru C, Titescu G, Iliescu R, Nastasa V., Research Concerning the Radioprotective and Immunostimulating Effects of Deuterium-Depleted Water, Romanian Journal of Physiology, 1999 Jul-Dec; 36(3-4): 205-18
“Deuterium adversely affects the shape of enzyme molecules which are involved in DNA replication�
The Possible Roles of Deuterium in the Initiation and Propagation of Aging and Other Biological
Mechanisms and Processes - Griffiths 1974
Consumption of deuterium depleted water can conceivably protect DNA from damage and assist DNA repair mechanisms.
These molecules bind to one another via hydrogen bonds to create the base pair that forms the building block of the DNA double helix and contribute to the folded structure of both DNA and RNA. Human DNA consists of 3 billion bases. There is 1 deuterium per every 300 base pairs of DNA or10 millions atoms of deuterium in the genome taking positions intended for protium. The added mass of deuterium in place of a protium distorts the precise and optimal shape of DNA creating errors in

transcription.
Fat is naturally deuterium depleted and 3X more energy efficient. 1 glucose molecule creates: 34 ATP 1 ketone body creates: 104 ATP Fasting is a great way to reduce your deuterium. For every 2.4 lbs. of fat burned 1 liter of deuterium
depleted water is created.
SOLUTIONS
Ketogenic means using fat instead of glucose as the primary source of fuel.
Fasting & Ketogenic Diet
Lower Deuterium For Optimal Health And Wellness Deuterium depletion means proactively lowering your endogenous deuterium level to below 120 ppm by the following measures:
Morning sunlight, cold exposure, breathwork and exercise. Quality sleep in complete darkness.
Intermittent fasting, dry fasting and ketogenic diet.
Consuming 60 to 120 ppm deuterium
depleted water (DDW).
Could deuterium depletion be the reason humpback whales get so big and live so long? In Alaska they drink lots of glacial melt water in the summer and then fast for months in the winter burning fat for fuel as their deuterium depletion strategy. Camels live twice as long as horses, and can walk for a week in the hot desert without water, they follow a deuterium depletion strategy, making metabolic water from the fat stored in their humps.
It has been documented that people that practice fasting regularly and consume naturally deuterium depleted glacial melt water are the healthiest and
most long lived people on the planet.

+ 8 liters of 150 ppm = 122 ppm
How Long Does it Take to Reduce Endogenous Deuterium?
Because deuterium is a stable isotope, it is fairly easy to analyze using certain body fluids such as saliva, urine, water vapor from breath. A Water-Vapor isotope analyzer is the most common instrument for measuring deuterium. Total body deuterium can be determined by utilizing MRI technology. Most individuals, more or less, test at the 150 ppm deuterium level. A recommended goal for deuterium in healthy adult individuals is 120 ppm deuterium level. Certain healthy long living cultures consuming glacier-melt all their entire lives commonly have a deuterium level of 130 ppm. Anyone starting or maintaining a deuterium depletion protocol should periodically test
their endogenous levels to optimize their strategy for health.
Testing for Deuterium
Deuterium Depleted Water The Fountain of Youth
• All water on Earth and everything that includes water contains a very small amount of deuterium, six drops to every liter (300 milligrams). • This six drops is called Heavy Water. • In glacial areas where deuterium is naturally lower, people enjoy longer more youthful lives. • As early as the 1950's Russian scientists were first to recognize deuterium depletion
as a way to enhance and prolong life.
No Standard Purification Technology Will Remove Deuterium!
No industrial, commercial or home water filtration system can remove deuterium.
Vacuum rectification is the technology we use to imitate and amplify the hydrological cycle. Heavy water boils 2.5º F higher than light water, and this is how we are able to remove it. This requires an enormous amount of energy, time, specialized equipment and engineering.

Tap Water DANGERS! The EPA has not set a new drinking water standard since 2001. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates about 100 contaminants in our tap water, but a study conducted by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) found over 300 harmful contaminants in tap water serving over 53.6 million Americans. Harmful contaminants in our unregulated drinking water include: –
Disinfection byproducts
–
Perchlorate (rocket fuel)
–
MTBE (gasoline additive)
–
Prescription drug residue like anti-depressants & hormones
from birth control. Disinfection byproducts are carcinogens which are produced when drinking- water-disinfectants like chlorine and chloramine react with naturally-occurring or decaying matter in the water to form byproducts that pose serious health risks. Nitrogen and phosphorus from agricultural runoff contaminate our groundwater supply posing health risks. A study by the EWG found that over 43 million Americans in 42 states drink water that is polluted with chromium, much of it likely being in the carcinogenic form of Chromium-6 • Portable Water Tank • Just plug it in.

No Plastics BPA Free No Recycling No Footprint
SAVE ENVIRONMENT Bottle Your Own Water According to the Paci c Institute, it takes over 17 million barrels of oil to produce the plastic required for bottled waters consumed by Americans in a year, which is enough oil to fuel more than 1 million cars for an entire year. The Paci c Institute estimates that it takes 3 liters of water to create 1 liter of bottled water. Over 73 billion half-liter bottles of water are consumed in the US per year. Only 29% are recycled, meaning 50 billion bottles end up in land lls or polluting our waterways. The recommended eight glasses of water a day (1460 pints).

Robert's take on alkaline water...
He's against it; has been for 7+ years It's "the scienti c misconception that became a multi-billion dollar business" The engineer who conceived of it didn't know the distinction between "alkaline" and "alkalinity" Another misconception in how "ph" levels affect acid in the water Match vs. replace: which will heat your home? Once you drink alkaline water, the body will change the ph level dramatically Alkalinity comes from adding trace minerals which have a buffering capacity: carbonates and bicarbonates Fresh green juices are a great way to alkalize the body (no ph levels) PRAL (Potential Renal Acid Load) Chart
