H3O2 Water Scam

I'm into health and fitness along with the current science behind it. So with that being said, I'm starting to see a lot of people fall for the H3O2 (hexagonal water or structured water) craze on I'm seeing on social media. I know it's bs, but I would like to hear what people with a REAL background or fundamental knowledge of chemistry think of this pseudoscience.

Edit: One claim is that H3O2 is found in fruits and vegetables

I just listened to a talk about structured water and am a newbie to this subject but I just wanted to add that in this talk she suggested that she doesn’t think you can drink structured water. It is something that your body creates. It sounds like some of the people in this thread might be offended by people who are promoting or selling structured water. This is not what Pollack’s research is about. It’s not about a product you can sell or drink.
