THE WATER WE DRINK
Many people assume that Washington State has the best water in
the country and has often been used as a clean water model. But,
did you know that not one county or municipality in Washington
State (or in the rest of the United States) passes the standard set in 1983 by the Clean Water Act.
Even EPA Administrator Carol M. Browner recognizes that, “Too
many systems fail to meet basic public health standards”.
Nationally, one in five Americans still drink contaminated or
inadequately treated water. In essence, you are committing an
act of faith when you turn on your tap to fill a glass of water.
Experts believe the single
greatest health threat in water supplies are contaminants, some
cancer-causing, which are left behind by the very chemicals
(chlorine) that water utilities use to make their water potable.
The parasite cryptosporidium is widespread in the water environment even
in treated water. Less than 40% of U.S. water plants effectively remove
the protozoan parasite.
Many people who talk to us
about water products say they don’t like the taste of water...wouldn’t
you agree with them after reading this. Chemically treated and infected
water tastes bad and is bad for you.
Due to tap water being so contaminated, many people purchase bottled
water Unfortunately, 70% of bottled water is reprocessed tap water.
There are also no separate standards set for bottled water companies,
meaning that in some states bottled water and local tap water are one in
the same. Of course, there are many large bottling facilities that
purify their water above the national standards, which is ultimately
reflected in cost to the consumer. Typically, a household can spend over
$400 annually for home delivered bottled water.

Water is essential to your body’s health.

In the popular book, Your
Body’s Many Cries for Water, by Dr. Batmanghelidj suggests that many
major health ailments are attributed to dehydration. He believes you
should drink at least half your body weight in ounces of water per day
for better health. However, coffee, tea or soda is not considered a
substitute for clean, fresh water. Water supplies oxygen and nutrients
to the cells. It removes waste through the blood and lymphatic system.
Water is necessary for the digestion and absorption of food. He fills
his book with dozens of terminal and ill health cases that purportedly
have all been relieved by drinking more water and participating in water
therapy programs.
