Water purifiers are readily available today from many sources. But not just any so called "water purifier" will do the job to give you the water purification you really need. Here are but 3 reasons why you should get a genuine water purifier before the sun goes down or you drink one more drop from your kitchen tap.
But first before I list the first reason you should know a little about the public water purification standards. Simply put the standards are lacking.
Bottled water is no more than tap water that has been "processed" by means of some kind of water purifier. However, you definitely need a water purifier in your home. But don't depend on the treatment by the public water facility. More on that in a moment.
What Pure Water Should Be
-Pure water should have no chemicals.
-It should be bacteria-free.
-The pH level should be correct.
-The mineral content should be balanced.
-It should smell good and taste good.
The Truth About Water Purifiers
Many products call themselves water purifiers when in fact they are not. One very popular "water purifier", (it is not), because its name sounds like it is, gets many sales as a result. A home shopping network sells one for about $40 and people buy it thinking that it is for water purification. Sorry about that. Many customers were dissatisfied because it did nothing to remove a chemical that they thought it would. This brings us to reason #1.
#1 Chlorine Removal is Vital
You might think that chlorine is good to have in the water. You're right and you're wrong.
You're right that it is beneficial to a point. The point being: NO FURTHER THAN YOUR TAP. Chlorine is a contaminant and a poison when you drink it. No you probably won't vomit or get noticeably sick. But it does the body no good. It helps kill certain dangerous "things" from water sources: wells, rivers, etc. But it is not to be ingested. But it is by most people.
Did you know that when you take a shower your skin is absorbing chlorine right into your bodies sytem? Scary isn't it. Sorry but you have good reason to be concerned. Also, it is not the only water contaminant to worry about.
#2 Lead is Toxic
Yes, lead is being found in drinking water in many areas. Lead is a metal that is toxic (poisonous) and can accumulate in your body over a period of time.
But, unfortunately, it is usually discovered after the damage is done. Get it out of your water.
#3 Reverse Osmosis - Exposed
This reason is more of an exposure of deception.
Reverse osmosis systems are promoted as the answer to pollution. RO is beneficial for some applications ( removing mud, debris,etc.) but not for in home water purification purposes. Here's why.
RO takes good minerals out of the water. It de-mineralizes the water. The body needs minerals that come naturally with water. Mineral free water can eventually produce problems like indigestion. RO can not remove pesticides or chlorine. For that you need a filter that is carbon activated.
There are more reasons than just these three. To summarize just remember that removing lead and chlorine is crucial and not removing minerals is vital to your health.
You need to do what I did to find a water purification system that really protects your family. Do your research before you buy a piece of junk. I found only one such company that truly makes a reliable water purifier and at a price that any one can afford. For more information see my website. - Larry L. Taylor
