The
Most Fundamental Element of All Life on Earth!
Are

You can increase your chances of enjoying good

it is purified water. Unfortunately most of us get tap water
that is full of chemicals that is bad for your health.

Water is

You need to drink enough water to insure it is
working at optimum level.
When you don't drink enough water there are
many functions that are
affected which could detrimental to your health.
Water is the most important thing you can
drink for good health. The amount of water you should be drinking is
one quart for every 50 lbs.
Whether your healthy or not so healthy you should
be drinking the required
amount of water to help you stay healthy or get healthier. So
why not start now.
But it must be
pure fresh water
You will be surprised to find out the
quality of your water.
As the development of our modern society increases,
so do the threats that face our water supply. Because
of this, tap water can contain any number of chemicals and substances.
Most tap water is regulated, tested and treated, yet there are no guarantees. This
is apparent as we see more health problems that arise in localized outbreaks from drinking water.
There are many sources of tap water that contain
chlorine byproducts, parasites, pesticides, herbicides, byproducts of
industrial processes, petroleum production and gasoline additives like
MTBE, heavy metals such as lead and who knows what else!
The health risks are
enormous:
- Toxins
in the water are linked to 2/3 of all cancer.
- Chlorine
in the water is tied to cancer and it is estimated that
in water increases cancer rate by 80%.
You might be surprised to learn that taking a
shower is worse for your
health than drinking water.
The chemicals vaporize much faster than water.
Steam contains 50-60 times the level of contamination and when you inhale these toxins into
your lungs, they go directly into the bloodstream. To make matters worse, your pores are open and you absorb chlorine and chemicals like a
sponge.
According to the American Journal of Public Health, 2/3
of the cancer
caused by chlorine in the water comes from showers.
Beware, bottled water in not the answer!
It is not stringently regulated and is
required to be only good as tap water.
Most bottled water actually comes from a municipal
water supply, not some pristine spring in the mountains.
A recent study tested 103 brands of bottled water and
more than 1/3 had levels of contaminates that exceeded acceptable standards for even
tap water. Also, water is a universal solvent and will absorb the petroleum
byproducts in the plastic container and who knows how long it has been sitting there.
In addition, bottled water costs over $1 a gallon,
well over what the cost per gallon that an efficient water filtration system would produce.
Even though bottled water is not the most effective
system for you, you're better off with it than tap water.

for yourself how you can eliminate your fear of the effects from your
everyday shower and tap water.
