So what is water treatment?

H2O is called “water”, but that isn’t good drinking water. A refreshing glas of water consists of H2O AND a lot of other stuff. Pure H2O is only Hydrogen and Oxygen, nothing less or more. But your body needs more!

• Correct pH value
• Minerals

You need them both.

The correct pH value helps your body to both aquire nutrition and to remove dirt. With “dirt” I mean all the stuff that either comes into your body through food and similar, and the left overs in the cells after they have burned the nutrition. It must be taken away, and water does the job.

If you drink water with less pH value that neutral (pH = 7), then your body might work harder than necessary to remove the dirt. It doesn’t mean you are going to die, becaus ethat’s far off. But it means that your body might work so hard to remove the dirt that it takes longer time than necessary. Again this means that your body may take longer time to recover from sickness, from excersice etc.

You know, many serious sports men use water treatment on a daily basis to get better results. Why? - The body recovers faster from hard work. They can exercise more often. The norwegian sports hero and winner in Tour de France Thor Hushovd use water treatment on a daily basis (He uses Vivatap.)

Your body needs minerals, and one of the best ways to get minerals into it is to drink good water. Good water contains minerals like magnesium and calsium. You need it, end of story.

Unfortunately most water filters remove the minerals too. Some add minerals after, but not all. It’s good that chlorine, bacteria etc get removed, but not the minerals you need. Check this before you buy a water filter next time…

So what’s the conclusion?

You need to drink fresh pure water. To get that kind of water today you most often need to have some kind of water treatment in your house. In fact bottled water often has less quality than the water you get from home - after it has been treated well.

When trying to find a new water treatment system I urge you to find a system that don’t gove you just pure H2O. That’s of no good interest. You need water, with healthy minerals etc.

Happy water hunt!
