Why water is important

There are many reasons why water is so important to the body, including these facts:

• Makes up approximately 70% of your body, and every cell in your body contains water
• Is needed to produce sweat, tears, and saliva, all of which play important roles in bodily functions
• Makes up the majority of the blood and lymph symptoms, where it carries food and oxygen where it is needed and removes waste
• Balances electrolytes to help control blood pressure
• Flushes the kidneys to remove toxins from the body
• Keeps the eyes, nose, and mouth moist so that they can function properly
• Regulates body temperature, allowing the body to cool down when it becomes hot or stay warm when it is cold
• Absorbs movement, acting as a shock absorber to your major organs
• Lubricates joints, allowing you to move freely and without pain
• Provides trace minerals necessary for health

As you can see, water is important and needed for so much more than just quenching thirst.

Why water quality is important

If you look at all the different things that water does, it should become apparent why good, clean water is so important.  If the water that you are drinking is polluted and contains toxins, then it could be harming your body more than it helps.  When the goal is to flush toxins and waste from the body, adding more to it is counterproductive.

Unfortunately, water quality around the world varies significantly.  Much of the water found covering the planet is undrinkable.  And even in civilized countries, where running water is as easily accessed as turning on the kitchen faucet, the quality of water may be poor due to contaminants and chemicals.

Why you should be drinking alkaline water

If you will stay healthy, then you need to drink water.  However, if you truly want to see health benefits from water, then you need to drink alkaline water.  Alkaline water has many benefits that allow it to be even better for your body than traditional tap water.

For starters, alkaline water is the closest to natural water that you can get.  Water is naturally alkaline, as are our bodies.  However, due to the rigorous treatments that water goes through in order to purify it, the water we receive at the tap and in bottles is actually acidic.  Acidic water has a harder time purifying the body, as the body needs an alkaline environment to heal itself.

Alkaline water also contains trace minerals.  Besides being needed for ongoing good health, these trace minerals help to balance blood pH and keeps your body running smoothly.

Lastly, alkaline water is delivered in smaller molecule clusters.  These small clusters can enter cells more easily.  This allows alkaline water to carry nutrients and oxygen into the cell more efficiently, as well as remove wastes from the cell more thoroughly.  This flushing of the cells allows your body to heal itself and maintain good health.

Fluoride

Initially, fluoridation of the public water supply was a way to reduce tooth decay. However, over time, it was discovered that in children aged one to four years of age, dental fluorosis became a severe problem. Dental fluorosis is a condition that causes white streaks or specks on the teeth. In severe cases, black and brown stains, as well as cracking of the teeth, will be evident. Bleaching and micro-abrasion are usually indicated to restore teeth to their natural coloring.

Chlorine

Chlorine was introduced into tap water to combat water-borne diseases such as cholera and typhoid. While very efficient at killing these diseases, chlorine is also a known poison and can cause health issues with long-term exposure. Chlorine also reacts with organic matter, such as bark and sediment, and creates trihalomethanes, which are extremely carcinogenic, even in minute doses.

Chloramine

A disinfectant, chloramine is represented as a safe chemical, but comes with the disclaimer to not be used in fish tanks, as it kills fish and to not be given to animals.

Bacteria

If, for some reason, the chlorine level isn’t high enough in the water that comes out of the tap, bacteria can be reintroduced into the water. Pipes are a haven for bacterial growth, and if the house in question draws its water from a spring or well where no chlorine is introduced, the likelihood of bacteria-laden water becomes much higher.

Lead

Approximately 98% of all households have lead in their plumbing. Lead is a toxin that cumulatively stays within the body’s tissues and tends to gather in the brain tissue. For children, long-term exposure to lead can cause permanent brain and development damage.

Asbestos

A carcinogen, asbestos can either occur naturally or from asbestos-lined water pipes. Because asbestos is so small, it often does not get removed while being processed at water treatment centers.

Giardia

Giardia, when introduced into an inhospitable environment (chlorine treated water, for instance), will go into a cystic or microscopic egg form. These cysts can cause diarrhea, dehydration and intestinal disorders when introduced into the body.

Conclusion

As witnessed from the list, it is truly surprising what can be found in the public tap water system. Whether purposely introduced or naturally occurring, the chemicals and microorganisms found in our drinking water can cause health problems – many of which can be permanent and life threatening.

One of the best ways to prevent possible health issues is to invest in a good water filtration unit. Filtering out these harmful chemicals and organisms may be one of the best choices one can make for ensuring life-long health.

Found in Water

Before streaming from the faucet, public tap water undergoes treatment at a local plant. These plants remove major debris and then add in fluoride, chlorine, and in some cases, chloramine to disinfect and fluoridate our water. Some microorganisms will change in this inhospitable and chlorinated environment to small eggs that are too tiny to be filtered out. These eggs are responsible for intestinal infections that lead to diarrhea and dehydration.

After leaving the processing plant and before coming out of the faucet, this treated water can be exposed to lead found within pipe systems. Additionally, if the chlorine level isn’t high enough to kill off bacteria, the pipe systems become a haven for bacteria to accumulate and be reintroduced into the water.

Alternatively, if water for the household doesn’t come from the public water system but rather a spring or well, the chances of debris, microorganisms and bacteria to be found in this water are much higher.

How to Purify Water

How can we ensure the water we drink is clean and pure water? One way would be the purchase of bottled water. However, this can end up being a very expensive long-term solution. As an example, a typical sixteen-ounce bottle of water is about $1.50. For just one person, over the course of a year, this can pour out $2190 for just bottled water (4 typical bottles of water daily). If you calculate this for a family of four, the cost becomes prohibitive.

A solution that initially may seem like a large investment but saves over the long-term is the purchase of a whole house water filter system. An average ionizing water filter system costs between $1500 to $3000. Even with the higher costing system, the purchase and implementation of a whole house water filter system will pay for itself in just a little over a year.

Once installed, an ionizing water system will remove the microscopic debris and microorganisms by first filtering the tap water. Next, the newly filtered water will go through an electrolysis process that causes ions in the water to become charged and thereby produce two types of water – acidic and alkaline.

People use the alkaline water for drinking. While the acidic water is not fit for human consumption, it is perfect for cleaning and sterilization. It can be used to wash hands, faces and hair, as well as household surfaces. The sterilization capability of acidic water is best used on minor cuts and abrasions and can help fight acne and eczema.

Regular tap water, though processed at a public plant, really is not as healthy as we’d like to think. To ensure the health of our families, and ourselves the purchase and implementation of a whole house water filter system is a very wise and economical choice.

The most basic of water purification is simple filtration. Water passes through a fine strainer or activated carbon filter. This removes minor amounts of debris and reduces any foul tastes or odors present in the water to be filtered. Water filtration does only that – filters out unwanted and non-microscopic debris. It does not remove any contaminants that can cause health issues such as bacteria, lead, viruses and arsenic. Even worse, the filter, if not replaced frequently, can be a breeding ground for the very same bacteria one would wish to have removed from one’s drinking water.

Reverse Osmosis

Reverse osmosis is a process that presses water through a membrane to reduce the amount of inorganic materials. The result is unwanted materials on one side of the membrane and processed water on the other. As with water that runs through a filtration system, this system can become clogged with contaminants and can also lead to further contamination by the growth of bacteria.

Steam Distilled

Steam distillation is the process of evaporating and condensing water to separate the pure water from the contaminants contained within ordinary tap water. This process is one of the better purification processes, as it not only removes chemical contaminants, but also is also highly effective in removing bacteria and other biological organisms. It has shown to be 99% effective in producing clean, healthy water.

Deionization

The process of deionization involves the usage of a filter. This filter will end up containing the anion (negatively charged) resins and the cation (positively charged) resins. Porous polymer beads are used for the ion exchange resin. These beads have a very high molecular weight. The ion exchange resins are repeatedly regenerated and rinsed of ions until all ionic material is removed from the water. This process is also known as demineralization. This method is not known to be effective in the complete removal of bacteria and harmful organic material.

Ionization

Finally, another way to process and clean water is through ionization. Tap water is first put through a filter to remove debris, particles and chemicals introduced into the water from the public processing center. Next, the filtered tap water is placed into an electrolysis chamber. This chamber is equipped with a platinum coated titanium electrode, which has the sole purpose of negatively and positively charging the ions present in the filtered tap water. The charging effectively separates the water into two types – alkaline and acidic. The resulting alkaline water is used for drinking and is free of microorganisms and contaminants. The acidic water is also free of microorganisms and contaminants and is best used for cleaning and sterilization.

Which Purification Process is Best?

All five water purification methods are essentially effective at removing debris and unwanted non-microscopic material. However, the most effective process that produces clean, pure water free from chemicals and harmful contaminants is ionization.
