Introduction

I became interested in human evolution in high school with my study of local artesian spring waters and the ability of some to magically support life while others were relatively sterile. The question I posed years ago as a scientific inquiry was “Is there magic in the water that makes life on earth possible and could this magic prevent and treat certain human diseases?” This book focuses on answering this question by first discussing how humans evolved to protect themselves from an environmental toxin that is a causal (i.e. etiological) factor of the following diseases:

· Autism

· Childhood Epilepsy

· Alzheimer’s Disease

· Coronary Heart Disease

· Colorectal Cancer

· Male Infertility

In 2013 I read a book that changed the way I viewed these idiopathic diseases titled “The Story of The Human Body” by Daniel E. Liberman an evolutionary biologist at Harvard⁶. In his book Professor Liberman points out that over thousands of years humans have evolved protection against toxins in our environment. This protection has worked well until recently when the amount of some toxins have risen, due to dysevolutionary cultural practices, to levels that exceed our evolved protection mechanisms. This mismatch between levels of toxins versus levels of evolved protection results in the above list of idiopathic diseases called “Mismatch Diseases”.

The rising prevalence during the last 100 years of these mismatch diseases with no evolutionary advantage can’t be explained by genetic mutations. Only genetic mutations with an evolutionary advantage can upset the evolutionary equilibrium. Therefore, mismatch diseases are caused by increasing human exposure to noninfectious environmental xenobiotic toxins.

My inquiry into mismatch diseases and dysevolutionary cultural practices began when my 85-year-old mother was diagnosed with two health issues:

· Cardiovascular disease (CVD) that required several stents

· Cognitive impairment that was progressing to Alzheimer’s disease (AD)

As a son I wanted to help my mother by both avoiding end-stage AD and prolonging her life. I was successful in this regard as she lived to 97 without having end-stage AD. As a scientist I became interested in finding what caused these diseases in my mother. Without knowing the cause of a disease, it is almost impossible to prevent or cure the disease. My mother’s health issues made me wonder if these two diseases had a common cause.

Arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and atherosclerosis (plaque on arterial inner walls) are associated with Alzheimer’s disease^1-3. In fact, in autopsied brains of 84% of aged subjects, morphology is seen as a characteristic of both AD and CVD⁴. Deaths from cardiovascular disease (CVD) surged 60% globally over the last 30 years. In 2023 it was reported by the World Heart Association that deaths from CVD jumped globally from 12.1million in 1990 to 20.5million in 2021 making CVD the leading cause of death⁵. This rapid growth in CVD deaths points to an environmental factor, that is exponentially increasing with time, as being a causal factor of CVD. This book presents data that shows the environmental factor aluminum is a causal factor of CVD. In 2022 I published a book titled “Finding a Cause and Potential Cures for Alzheimer’s Disease” in which aluminum is shown to be a causal factor of AD³⁵.

CVD, and AD are mismatch diseases where increasing exposure to aluminum exceeds the body’s evolved protection mechanisms⁶. Humans have slowly evolved over millions of years to protect themselves from aluminum, the third most abundant element in the earth’s crust. This evolution resulted in unique human evolutionary advantages that are described in this book. Dysevolutionary cultural practices are those practices that impair our ability to use our evolutionary advantages. The dysevolutionary cultural practices discussed in this book are:

· Accepting Worldwide Declining Male Fertility

· Adding Aluminum to Drinking Water

· Vaccinating Children with Aluminum Containing Vaccines

· Drinking From an Aluminum Can, Cup, or Bottle

· Cooking in Aluminum Cookware

· Baking with an Aluminum Containing Baking Powder

· Avoiding a Good Sweat

Treating CVD with Fiji Water is an example of a cultural evolution fueled by social media moving much quicker through a population than genetic mutations. This anecdotal information was posted on March 17^th 2025 at my wife’s (Laurie Adamson’s) Facebook group - Alzheimer’s: Late and Early Onset, APOE-4:

“We are winning too! My husband who is 75 had hypoxia issues, … out of control C-reactive protein, homocysteine, and blood pressure. My husband has the APOE4 gene and the MTHFR gene. He has never taken a statin. We decided never on that as the brain needs cholesterol.

We’ve been on this Journey 4 plus years. Prior to January of 2024 we used the Bredesen Protocol, along with Bredesen trained ND (Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine). We added drinking Fiji water almost a year ago in late January of 2024, because I trusted the science behind heavy metals and inflammation, and really there is no risk in trying this.

His August 2024 blood work and tests of his carotid artery showed a reduction to about 9-12 percent blockage from 78 percent blockage in 2021 and 2023. For the first time in 4 years his CRP and homocysteine levels were in the normal range. His blood pressure, previously considered uncontrollable, is now in the 117/80 range.

His tests were performed by Lifeline screening, who we have used since 2010, and Labcorp for blood work. These were done August 29th and 30th of 2024 and are the latest results. His carotid artery is now showing mild risk down from significant risk in 2021 to 2023.

His vascular surgeon, Dr. Hirchfeld in Las Vegas, had been monitoring him since late 2021 when his carotid artery was just under 80 percent occluded. Also, Labcorp results in August of 2024 for C-reactive protein were 1.05mg/L. Thats down from the 3.5 to 3.9mg/L we were seeing up to and including 2023 testing. This was part of our NDs full range of tests begun in the fall of 2021 in response to my husband’s declining cognition.

Was lucky to find your group and your husband's book which is helping to take us the rest of the way. Drinking 1 liter of Fiji water a day was the only change we made from January of 2024 to December of 2024 and then 0.5 liter a day in 2025. Read the book. Do tests for metal detox, food sensitivity, and blood work. Knowledge of what issues can be addressed is important”.

Treating AD with Fiji Water is another example of how cultural evolution works. This anecdotal information was posted on October 10^th 2025 at my wife’s (Laurie Adamson’s) Facebook group - Alzheimer’s: Late and Early Onset, APOE-4:

This may be too short a time period to attribute my husband's improvements to the Fiji water. But here's what happened:

He is currently 89 and was diagnosed with Alzheimer's almost two years ago. He has had numerous neurological evaluations plus an MRI and a Pet scan. His last evaluation, he achieved a score of 19 (Mini-Mental Status Exam) .

In June of this year, he started drinking 32 ounces of Fiji water a day. Two months later, he had another neurological evaluation and his score was 25. His doctor said she had never seen this happen and that he has almost tested out of Alzheimer's. We were there to possibly start him on the infusions, but now we are taking a wait and see attitude.

His short-term memory is still not good, but it is a lot better than it was. While, he still has some problems with sundowners that's getting a lot better as well. I'm very hopeful! Oct. 2025

These two anecdotal descriptions of treating CVD and AD with Fiji Water are examples of many more reported in this book that describe reversal of the above listed human mismatch diseases with waters rich in orthosilicic acid (OSA) the magic in water.
