water filters Discussions| Water Filters and Purifiers – What are the health benefits? | | water filters, purifiers and water filtration systems convert ordinary tap water into perfectly safe drinking water. They remove impurities and contaminants by means of a fine physical barrier or a chemical process.Health benefits of a water filter:A water filter or water purifier is very beneficial for healthy living. Ordinary water contains numerous contaminants including bacteria, algae, viruses, fungi, minerals, and man-made chemical pollutants that cannot be seen with the naked eye. These contaminants not only cause the water to taste bad, but are also very harmful to your health.A water filter kills all of these organisms and filters out the contaminants to make the water fit for drinking. Thus water filters save us from many dangerous bacterial and viral diseases that spread due to the contamination of water.The working technique of water filters is based on sieving, ion exchanges and other processes. A water filter can eliminate particles much smaller than the holes through which the water passes.Alkaline water ionizers provide alkaline water. The following are the health benefits of alkaline water:•... | |
| | On tv the other night, for every one pound of meth made, 10 pounds of toxic | | waste. Isn't that horrible? A friend of mine had said that the wells in some areas are poluted with all kinds of things from fertilizer to allegy meds to battery acid because of drug labs. This scares me because I live in the country and I have a well. Even if you don't drink your water, you shower and wash clothing in it. Does this scare you? | |
| | Do you boil water before drinking? | | In my country the water is relatively safe as we adhere to strict standards and so far there hasnt been a out break or epidemic so I guess they have been doing something right .However there are countries where the safety standards are less stringent and as a result there are frequent outbreaks consequently I am wondering how many people take teh extra precaution to safegaurd their drinking water.In addition I would like to know what are these precautions like boiling or adding a bleaching agent?Or do you you totally trust the water you consume? | |
| | Kangen Water Has Changed My life. | | For years I suffered from Insomnia, I was constantly tired and had very little energy. All of my friends thought that I was always "high" because my eyes were like cherry tomatoes. A few months ago I was introduced to "KANGEN WATER" by one of my very good friend; he told me that it was the best water I could possible put into my body because of the health properties it has. Well like most people I was skeptical, I though to myself that water is water and I was not going to buy into whatever he was trying to sell me. Well I finally caved in and gave the water a try. From the first sip I took I knew that the water was different from any other water that I have tried before--it was cleaner, lighter, and had a nice crisp taste to it. I did not taste any chlorine or any bad taste that is usually associated with other types of water. For a month I drank the water and what i discovered was absolutely amazing. My eyes were not as red anymore, and I was finally sleeping through the night--I was sleeping!! I of course wanted to know more about the properties of the water, and why was it that my body had these amazing results from just drinking KANGEN WATER. This is the best thing I... | |
| | Tap Water | | Do you drink tap water? Do you have bottled water? Do you make sure that bottle water has been distilled? They just did a report on our tap water and found over 5k pharmacutial drugs in it, not to mention the iron, chlorine, etc... We just put in a reverse osmosis filter!absolutely amazing. My eyes were not as red anymore, and I was finally sleeping through the night--I was sleeping!! I of course wanted to know more about the properties of the water, and why was it that my body had these amazing results from just drinking KANGEN WATER. This is the best thing I have ever put inside my body, it has changed my life and I am thankful and grateful that I was introduced to it. If you have any questions about KANGEN WATER please email me though my blog; kangenioner.blogspot.com | |
| | drugs in your tap or drinking water | | I just saw on the news that our tap water has traces of drugs, such as birth control pills, narcotics, pian relievers etc,the reason being that the human body does not absorb all the drugs and then you go to the bathroom and pee it out. That goes down the sewer and into the rivers. The filtration systems that take the water from the reservoirs for use to drink from the tap do not screen for drugs so we drink these traces.They have reported this problem in 14 american cities so far, big cities like chicago, washington, I didn'[t get a chance to copy down the other ones,they have noticed that fish have been affected by these trace drugs. Male fish are being born with female parts and they cannot reproduce.The the experts say this is not a problem with humans, it is still scary, drinking stuff that you don't even know what you are drinking and what it could do to you years from now.My mother has a water filtration system in her home, she has not trusted tap water for over 30 years.What do you think?Do you have a filtration system? | |
| | Water...bottled or tap? | | We all know we should drink at least 8 classes of water a day for our health. I don't always hit the 8 I need a day, but I try. I will drink water from the tap, my oldest son won't, he only likes bottled water. It took him a while to adjust to me only buying store brand bottles. I told him if I was going to buy him water, it wouldn't be the expensive kind. I don't know that there truly is any benefit from drinking bottled water over tap water. I've even heard that there are nutrients in tap water that are filtered out of bottled, I don't know if that's true, but that's what I've heard. I will refill the bottles (after cleaning them) for my younger son and his friends, I put their initials on the cap so they each have their own. They love it, because they can go in the fridge and help themselves, so It's easier for us all. My question to you is do you like bottled water or tap water? | |
| | Tap water or bottled water? | | Which is your preference..water from the tap or bottled water.My theory is tap water is best..put a filter if you want to strain out inpurities.There is no promise that bottled water isnt bottled tap water.If you like bottled water ..what brand do you drink? | |
| | | Do you drink a particular brand of water? | | I drink Arrowhead Water because its tastes better than tap water. Do you drink a particular brand or drink tap water? Are there any brands you won't drink? Recently, I purchased water from one of the machines outside a store and it tasted worse than my tap water. The water wasn't clear and had a metallic taste and my tap water has a bad smell. | |
