Water Ionizers will help filter out some of the pharmaceuticals and poisons, but not all.

Back in 2002 a study by the USGS [United States Geological Survey] revealed traces of pharmaceuticals and other man-made poisons showing up in our water supplies. Since then other studies, such as an extensive study by the associated press, have exposed more and more drugs and other poisons that are making their way back into our drinking water. These drugs are scary enough on their own [anti-depressants, hormones, pain killers, etc.], but combined…who knows what the effect into the future will be. Literally, wherever testing was done, drugs were found in the drinking water. So, cities which were not implicated in having particular drugs in their water probably do have them, but just hasn’t been tested for them yet. No mandatory testing has been passed through congress, even though years have passed since the drugs-in-our-water problems were exposed. Here is one of the many news videos on the subject:

 

When is the FDA and/or EPA going to require all water to be tested for pharmaceuticals? I wouldn’t trust that it’s going to happen any time soon. The reason I think this is …look at all the municipalities still fluoridating water! Years ago fluoride was seen in many studies as a link to learning disabilities, Alzheimer’s, fluoridosis in young children, and other diseases. It’s also been proven that the only actual benefit for fluoride is when it’s applied topically [i.e. in toothpaste]. We literally take the toxic waste from the aluminum manufacturing plants [AKA - fluoride] and dump it intentionally into the water supply! How dumb is that?! So, with a track record like that, I’m not going to bet on the government, all by itself — with no pressure from massive amounts of people, is going to fix the pharmaceutical problem. Here’s one of many fluoride warning videos:

Here’s another reason I don’t trust the government to anytime soon fix this problem: Look at the newest water treatment chemical being dumped into our water: chloramine! Chlorine kills the germs, and is easy to filter out of the water, but chloramine [chlorine combined with ammonia] is now the water disinfectant of choice! Chloramine is much harder to remove from your drinking water and it requires special filtration. The Jupiter and KYK companies so far have included filtering material in their filters for Chloramine, but not all companies have caught up with this latest government craze.

With all that being said, there is some help for ordinary people to protect against the fluorides, chloramines, and now pharmaceudicals.: water ionization. Of course water ionizers will not completely eradicate the drugs-in-our-water problem, but here are some of the ways they can help:

  • One of the best ways to protect yourself from all the junk is to install an Reverse-Osmosis-Remineralizer system and water ionizer. It will remove the junk for one, but then also the water will be so much healthier for you that you will hopefully not be one of those people contributing to the pharmaceuticals problem [because you won't be using them].
  • Or just get a water ionizer. A water ionizer all by itself will help eliminate over 85% of the acidic elements in the water. Fluoride is acidic, so falls in this category. Plus, as stated above, if you’re healthier, you won’t be contributing to the problem as much.
  • With your water ionizer purchase, you can order a fluoride, lead and arsenic pre-filter and/or many other pre-filters.

Is reverse-osmosis good enough? No. This will still be contributing to the problem, because it’s not healthy for you to drink water that has no minerals in it. It’s dead-water and tends to become acidic and unhealthy for you.

What about reverse-osmosis-remineralized water. That’s better, but the healthiest water [provided it's made with clean, non-toxic, water] is ionized water. There simply is no comparison.

Wishing You Water Wellness!
