Filter Water

Individuals filter water to eliminate the presence of harmful contaminants like lead, chlorine and bacteria in their water supply. The human body is comprised of 60 – 80 percent water. Every five to 10 days it is necessary to replace all of the body's water to keep it functioning efficiently and to maintain good health. It is important to replenish the body’s water with clean, pure, filtered water. When selecting a water filter look for one that is long lasting, reliable and can filter out particles down to 1 micron (a human hair is about 100 microns), which can help prevent long-term health risks associated with the gradual buildup of toxins, heavy metals, chemicals and chlorine in the body. While it is true most municipal water systems use a chlorination process to kill bacteria and viruses, water filters provide an additional important form of protection. Considering chlorine is used in the municipal system “cleaning” process, carcinogenic compounds such as trihalomethanes and chloroform can form and develop a presence in the water. In addition, municipally chlorinated water has to travel through miles of dirty pipes before it enters your home, facing exposure to heavy metals from solder joints, fixtures, etc. The only way to ensure that the drinking water in your home or office is free of contaminants is to treat it with a water filter.
