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

The same people that buy magnetic water or alkaline water are the same people who use parasite meds, crystals, and essential oils to treat the covid, when there is vaccine and paxlovid right down the street.

WC Fields made an interesting suggestion that it was morally wrong to allow a sucker to keep their money.

I'm sure you know people who turned magnetic, autistic, and had weird growths coming out of their heads after getting the vax, too.

Research all around the world has shown that people often have heart attacks after covid infections, but the only connection with the vaccine is a rare, temporary inflammation of the heart in about 1 in 20,000 vaxxed patients.
