It has come to my attention that there are a few characteristics about the O3World Form product that need clarification. We’ve been hearing about the great results that people have been experiencing across the boards, however, if we educate people about the actual physical process that gives Form its amazing properties, it will allow people to better utilize this revolutionary product.
The following are a two guidelines for optimal results, with accompanying explanations. I know it always helps me make better decisions about how to use a product when I actually understand the reasons behind the usage recommendation. So, without any further Adieu:
1: Form should be taken on a relatively empty stomach. Do not eat or drink anything for at least 45-60 minutes before taking Form.
Explanation : Form is a in a class of compounds known as Super Absorbent Polymers, or SAPs. The vast majority of these compounds can only absorb extremely pure water. While Form is designed to be more tolerable of impurities in the water, it still helps to have the purest water environment possible for optimum expansion. Also, if there are more liquids present than the Form can absorb, it will remain in a fluid, or semi-fluid state, thus detracting from its hunger-reducing properties. If one were to have food in the stomach, it would contain material that would dissolve into the water, and detract from the Form’s expansion performance. Also, if one had excess liquids in the stomach, it would create an environment where the Form would not be able to absorb enough to congeal, and bring about the intended effect.
2: Form should be taken with the purest possible water, preferably warm.
Explanation: Once again, Form is happiest in a pure water environment. The reason for this is because each Form microbead is like a tiny, tiny sponge, with a bunch of microscopic holes in it. We’re going to paint a mental picture for everyone to help them understand this principle.
Let’s think about these tiny holes as doorways that are three feet high, and two feet wide. Now let’s think about each water molecule as a five year old girl who wants to hold hands with everyone she can. Water, like five year olds, can behave in very interesting ways. Our water molecule has the ability to “hold hands” with a very large number of other substances. This is what happens whenever anything is dissolved in the water. Sugars, Salts, acids, bases, minerals; All these substances all have the ability to bond with water molecules, and move about the solution in tandem on the molecular level. Ok, back to the “tiny door” analogy. The water molecule, the five year old, holds hands with whomever she can. When water comes in contact with Form microbeads, and its tiny doorways, water wants to walk through them. However, if she’s “holding hands” with someone, she must try to bring them through the door as well. Now, if a water molecule is a five year old, every other molecule that can hold her hands are huge, fully grown adults. Picture our tiny little water molecule, holding hands with her 250 pound father, walking through a 3 foot by 2 foot doorway. It’s just not going to work very well.
This is the situation if there are sugars or salts dissolved in the water. Form will only expand 65-80% if the water it is absorbing has too much dissolved in it. Hence, Colas, Coffee, Juices, and pretty much anything except pure water is not optimal for use with Form. It also expands much more rapidly in water that is close to body temperature.
Something to remember is that bottled water is not necessarily pure water. Some bottles waters add minerals and electrolytes that will slow the absorbing process. It should still work with basically all bottled waters, but if there are “flavor enhancing minerals” in the water it will just take a little longer for it to do its job.
I hope these explanations give you a little better reason about why we make these Form recommendations. Thank you for your interest!
