I have witnessed friends buying and consuming some of the best health supplements on the market and wash them down with tap water.Why worry about the efficacy of your health supplements,when contaminated water destroy all of the benefits
Thanks to recent News reports everyone now knows that drinking the water that is coming through our taps unfiltered can erode our health. In fact studies have shown that there are tens of thousands of chemicals, and dozens of various parasites and cysts in our waterways that threaten our very existence. You and I need to not only understand this fact, but to take action to protect ourselves from these dangers that we now face.
We can live without many, many things in our life. You even can live for more than a week without any food. But you cannot live without daily access to safe drinking water. Your life literally depends upon it. The key question is, what's your source?
It's true that water, like the air you breathe, is for the most part free. With water, what you pay for is the quality of the water and its delivery to the point of use. So, why do you need a drinking water filtration system?
Most people take it on faith that the water coming from the tap in their home is safe to drink. And, generally speaking, it is. Well, at least it passes minimum government standards for quality and safety. But how comfortable are you that the government standards applied to your drinking water really are stringent enough, and enforced well enough, to protect your family's health 24 hours a day, 365 days a year? While treating water by adding chlorine to the water supply to kill water-borne diseases has been a tremendous boon to the health of the general population in developed countries, it is a proven fact that chlorine is not good for your body. Chlorine is a good thing right up to the point where you swallow it, and then it's a bad thing.
The simple solution is to filter your drinking water at the point of use in your home. And if you filter your water to remove chlorine and anything else that makes the water taste bad, why not use a truly effective filtration system that eliminates as many other unhealthy contaminants as possible? While there are many, many water filtering alternatives you can consider to remove chlorine and improve the taste of drinking water, there are surprisingly few that are up to the challenging task of eliminating invisible, hard-to-remove contaminants such as Arsenic V. Not all water filtration systems are created equal, and the devil is deep in the details.
Not All Water Filters Are Created Equal
Just because a water filter looks like a good deal, does not mean it actually is. Compare the quality of the different filters and most importantly,does it meet the standards of NSF certification.
The most important part is to learn about the different types of Water Filters available. Quality online shopping will only take you so far if you don't know what you are doing. There are literally hundreds of different manufacturers and distributors of water filters that you can spend your money on these days. Like any market, a few of the water filter companies are really good and a few of them are really bad. Less than 5 companies meet NSF standard 53.That is where the rubber hits the road.If a filter does not meet standard 53,it is just a waste of your hard earned money.It can only effect the smell and taste of the water.All of the other harmful contaminants will remain in your water.
With the constant drip ,drip,drip of information concerning Bottle water vs Tap,there seem to be a war between the two.
Just like in any war the first casualty is the truth.Now that the real story concerning bottle water is being told,the
public now knows that the quality and purity of bottle water is no better than tap.That little bite of the truth has created
a breeding ground for deception.Just turn on the TV and you will see commercial after commercial,claiming to make tap
water cleaner or better than bottle water.That is not a tall order, given the state of bottle water today.None of the advertised
Water filters seen on TV will make your water safe.Almost any water filtering device will remove chlorine,but are you aware
of the chemical reaction produced during that process.The toxic residue that remains after chlorine has been removed is
much more carcinogenic than chlorine.
I have been asked on many occassions how do I know a good waterfiltering device when I see one.Well I don't.I simply
open the pages to Consumer Digest
.Consumer Digest is a non-bias publication,that test and evaluate appliances.
