1. Pure, safe drinking water is essential to life.
- More than 700 potentially harmful minerals and chemicals have been found in North America's drinking water.
2. Minerals in drinking water are not good for you! Our bodies need minerals but only in their organic state.
They must first pass through the roots of plants and become organic minerals before our bodies can assimilate them.
There is a big difference between drinking dissolved inorganic iron filings in water and consuming the organic iron in
plants, vegetables and fruits.
- In my opinion, the cause of many kidney stones is heavy, hard chemicalized water, saturated with calcium carbonate and other inorganic minerals. - The Shocking Truth About Water- Patricia Bragg, Ph.D.
3. The Aquifer (water table) as well as our natural spring water and municipal water sources are polluted with
chemical contaminants, inorganic minerals and other Total Dissolved Solids (TDS).
TDS's in your water include: harmful substances such as inorganic minerals, heavy metals, chemicals, and human or
animal feces.
4. Chlorine byproducts are carcinogenic. Over 75% of North America's houses are supplied with chlorine treated water, in order to "control" deadly micro organisms.
- A 1992 study published in the American journal of Public Health, pooling the results of 12 studies,
demonstrated a positive association between consumption of chlorinated byproducts in drinking water and bladder and
rectal cancers in humans. The study concluded that 18% of all rectal cancers (6500 cases a year) and all bladder
cancers (4220 cases a year) could be attributed to chlorinated byproducts. - Health and Healing - Dr. Julian Whitaker
5. Many harmful microorganisms such as Cryptosporidium are present in our water and are resistant to chlorine treatment. In 1993 over 403,000 people in the US were infected by the parasite, and over 100 died.
6. Ozone is 100% effective at eliminating microbiological contamination. Ozone kills all viruses - chlorination cannot. Ozone removes unpalatable tastes and disinfects water without chemicals and quickly dissipates from the treated water leaving no trace - and it's environmentally friendly!
