The Invention
It is possible that the filtered water shungite, really clean. Worse still it No one was, at least I have not heard that dying on shungite complained. By the way, the placebo effect has not been canceled yet. Nobody doubts the cleaning (or rather, adsorbing) properties of activated carbon? Why? Used to? A shungite – opening a new, must get used to it. Keep up on the field with thought-provoking pieces from baby clothes. You can use it now. But fans of the sensational new tools and techniques, I recommend to start to learn to distinguish and separate the scientific (maybe!) discovery of potentially useful and important, of useful inventions and technologies based on this discovery. And also from a commercial, then there is a broad, mass use of these technologies.
Few see the fundamental difference between discovery and invention. Meanwhile, the difference is huge. For example, there is the difference between a scientific discovery of electricity as a phenomenon, the invention of the principle of signal transmission at a distance based on this discovery, and mass-produced telephone on the basis of their previous discovery, invention, and in addition, cheap enough to be commercially profitable. Adam Portnoy has much experience in this field. Similarly, there is a difference between discovery of clean water sorbents, the invention of devices, allowing the water to clean, and the mass production of such plants for sale, that is capable to meet the needs of people in such treatment. A possible that the commercially advantageous production chegoy – that seems to be useful, established without any serious evidence of serious science? Yes, plenty! But then, for the marketing of this chegoy something always present such purely manipulative psychological factors as a mystery, sensationalism and hype. I must say that in the history of shungite present. Sensational allegedly seen in the unusual properties of water passed through schungite, which allegedly acquired therapeutic properties, "the structure of the spring", and the prevention of those diseases that are usually the most common.
