Medicinal uses claim.

I have removed the following ...

Water from the lake is bottled and exported and used as a medical product. The water may help someone with stomach aches, heartburn, nausea, and indigestion.

I had a quick look, and this seems to be unsupported by any reliable references. It seems to be a joke based on the lake's similarity to Pepto-Bismal due to its colour. The ads use the same list of ailments in that order. Lake Hillier is too small to be commercially expoited, It is on a small uninhabited island in a nature reserve. Online photos show no evidence of any activity on the island.

If anyone finds a reliable reference that its water is or was used, it could be added back in.--Dmol (talk) 22:22, 27 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Protected Area Status <-- meaning?

Any chance of explaining what the actual restrictions are due to this protection ? Are people forbidden to actually stand on the shore of the lake? Can they swim in it? Etc. 172.88.146.9 (talk) 10:38, 15 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
