Discover more benefits of drinking water today. Ray Hamilton is a dedicated advocate and researcher of the incredible benefits of safe, clean healthy water. Discover which products Ray recommends after extensive research.
Let's face it, we all know the importance of drinking water and we all have to make an effort to drink more. However before you rush to the tap for a glass, you might want to consider what's in it, and how to make it pure.
We are made up of 70% water so the quality of what we consume directly impacts on our health and well-being. Recent studies have shown that there are over 2000 toxic chemicals in our supplies including pesticides, herbicides, prescription drugs, lead and chlorine, so the benefits of drinking water must be weighed against what it contains.
The importance of drinking water cannot be understated and it is essential that we drink more. When we start to feel thirsty, we are already dehydrated! But consuming the chemical cocktail that comes out of our taps today is likely to do us more harm.
If you consume chlorinated water you have a 93% higher chance of getting cancer than those whose supply does not contain chlorine. With the increased use in industry and agriculture of more and more chemicals, the situation is likely to deteriorate further.
Now I know this is all very depressing reading and you just wanted the benefits of drinking water, but I can't recommend to people to increase their consumption when it is full of toxins!
The importance of drinking water that has been filtered is another matter and there are a variety of systems to help you make it safe and pure. The EPA recommends using a carbon block filter as the only effective method.
When selecting a system ensure it uses a multi-stage process with an activated carbon filter and ion exchange for the best results. The very best will remove 99.9% of all contaminants, leaving you with nothing but great tasting water.
This is probably the best and most cost-effective health investment you will ever make to protect you and your family, and then you can really enjoy the benefits of drinking water again.
