Water Ionizers, Purifiers, Filters & Water Facts about bottled water, city water, and reverse osmosis.

Healthy food and pure water is the "common denominator" of good health. The of all people, for performance, symptoms, chronic symptoms, diagnosis and disease.

Did you know that less than 2% of the world's water is ingestible? And that 2% needs to be purified before we CAN ingest it? Countries are leveraging their water rights as they once leveraged oil rights.

We assume our government is taking care of our water and it's uncomfortable to think the water issues have become our responsibility, however, the truth is that pure water is not an option unless you have a water purification system in your home. There are no pure sources of water today and not only are our municipalites overloaded, and we should test our own tap water, but our aquifers have been affected and we should be testing our well water.

A simple test kit "watersafe" is a simple do it yourself kit, offered below for under $20, or you can contact your municipality for your last 3 years of water reports. Some water issues are only tested every other year or every 3rd year, so having 3 years of reports will give you a good overview of all contaminants, their levels, and you can make a decision about your interpretation of "legal limits" vs. "health limits".

Detailed Information below on several water purification options available today, and alternatives to bottled water. Whether you are concerned about the sink and shower, or you are looking to enhance and ionize, raising the pH of your drinking water, or perhaps whole house systems, pure water from every faucet, the choice is yours.

Below you will find information on the following products:

• Jupiter Science® Ionizer (ionize, alkalize and purify with low ORP)
• Showerhead Filter
• Countertop Water Purifier

Water Facts we should all be aware of today.

Bottled Water: Did you know that bottled water is not regulated by the EPA, or that some environmental groups like the EWG (Environmental Working Group) have found tap water, with all the contaminants and chlorine, etc., to be equal to or better than bottled water in some instances. In addition do you know what the empty plastic bottles are doing to the environment and why we should use polycarbonate bottles?

San Francisco, CA, Chicago, IL, Salt Lake City, UT, and Manhattan NY have taken a stand on bottled water because environmentally and based on the regulations, it is more prudent to ban bottled water sales and/or serve tap water, click here to read more:

Water and our health, pH Balance: Pure water is our foundation to wellness, regardless of what supplements we ingest, or the integrity of our diets, water must be pure. We are 70% water, our blood is 96% water, and only 8% of the water on the earth is ingestible, and of that, 100% must be purified. It is our individual responsibility to make sure our home, schools and businesses have pure water.

• Drinking pure water is nutrition in its' most simple form, bio-available minerals
• Bottled Water is not regulated by EPA, independent labs report negative findings
  • Bottled Water is expensive, inconvenient and plastic bottles not environmentally friendly.
    
• Drinking Water should be as wet as possible, every cell is different and of different size, our bodies break down the water clusters and if we are out of balance, it may be difficult for our body to naturally break it down small enough to hydrate all of our cells.
  • Ionizing breaks the water clusters down to a smaller, bio-available size
  • Ionizing creates an environment of oxygen rich wate
• Water should be pH Neutral as a baseline, increasing the pH or having alkaline water further enhances our ability to neutralize acid from our food, digestion and environment.
  • Higher pH water floats us like an innertube on the river, holding us up when the food and environment are acidically trying to take us under into an acidic state where symptoms and bad micro organisms can flourish

Why not Reverse Osmosis?

• Reverse osmosis strips the nutrition from the water, the bio available minerals. Instead of ionically exchanging the "bad" minerals to "good" minerals as some of the more advanced technologies like KDF do, reverse osmosis strips all the minerals that we we should naturally absorb from our water.
• Water harvest is also an area of concern. Using a point of use, or under the counter type unit, you are only harvesting 1 to 3 gallons for every 5 gallons of tap water which is the reason for the tanks. Therein raises the question about where all the waste water goes.
• The 40 to 60% waste water is an unhealthy concentration, the water which was stripped, and it is released back into the environment.
• This process is bulky tanks and is limited to point of use, or kitchen sink typically, or commercially. For a whole house reverse osmosis, it would require huge storage tanks, and consideration of increased water bill.

Chlorine Gas: Did you know when you shower or bathe, warm/hot water with chlorine, transforms the chlorine to chloroform, which is then easily absorbed through breathing (lungs) or through skin, and absorption is several times more harmful than drinking chlorinated water?

• Our skin can absorb at much higher rates than drinking water, therefore we should bathe and shower in pure water, otherwise we are absorbing or inhaling various chemicals and toxins from the water.
• Hot water like you would have in a shower will change the chemical chlorine (and other chemicals) to a gaseous state that is absorbed into the lungs

If we ever doubted that our skin absorbs chemicals, toxins, contaminants into our blood stream, just click here to read this USA Today article about a young athlete topically applying too much of a product (regularly)

Water Purifier Considerations:

Testing your tap water has never been easier, there is a safewater test for around $20 that will give you a heads up on the basic elements you need to be concerned with. Most of us are aware that by the time our water department identifies an issue, we've already drank the water, and we are all aware of the chlorine and other chemicals added to the water to make it ingestible, unfortunately, we are depending on our city water departments to take care of an ever growing issue of contaminants, biologicals, agricultural pesticides, etc., with the same tools.

We each need to consider our own needs, for example if you are an apartment dweller or temporarily in residence, or renting a home, a countertop and a showerhead can accomodate your drinking, cooking and bathing, with filter changes maybe one or twice a year.

If you own a home and can afford the one time outlay, a simple whole house system is now available and affordable. The system we recommend has been NSF approved with filter change at a year or 35,000 gallons. With employed technology of every KDF's and GAC (see below for descriptions), gone are the days we also need backwash, softeners, electricity, complicated installation, etc., today we can achieve complete purification (up to 99%) without affecting water pressure and without all the hassle, and at a reasonable cost, or even a cost savings when you add up all the money spent on bottled water.

Not only do we want to purify our water, but we also want to put pure water back into the environment! So many systems backwash or worse, putting contaminated water back into the environment! Internally and externally we are all environmentalists, the question is whether we are resolving our environmental issues or ignoring them.

We want pure drinking water as a priority so that we no longer have to needlessly purchase bottled water! Plastic leaves a carbon footprint (cost of getting plastic to market), but also plastic leaches, so if we buy a case of plastic bottles, as they sit, they leach plastic into the water.

The better option is we can purchase polycarbonate bottles and keep them full with pure sweet water from our own faucets from $50 - $1500, easily affordable when you are spending hundreds of dollars on bottled water, supplements, organic food, for 1/2 cent a gallon you can have pure water from every faucet!
