Has life gone full circle, previously we used to pan water for gold – now gold comes with our water!

ABC Dispensing Technologies, Inc. has launched their newest product, “au Le Cadeau”, bottled water that contains gold, colloidal gold that is.

The company says that while gold is often thought of as a precious metal, many of its medicinal properties have long been forgotten. [...] How much gold is in each bottle of water? Not much.

No word on pricing and availability.

    However the so called Medicinal has been abused over and over again and in completely the wrong context, since all heavy metals are toxic to the human body (in quantities greater than trace amounts) and can cause mental instability.
    Trace quantities of gold is apparently supposed to be good for arthritis.
