The Truth about your Tap Water

Greetings!

Most of us assume that our tap water is pretty clean.  We really hope it is since we use tap water all day long...to drink, wash off our produce, wash our bodies and more.  Do I really want water that is full of chemicals and sewage to be 'washing off' my fruit?

Here is a nice site that tells you a little more info about your tap water.  You can even go to the water treatment site for your area and see how they treat your tap water.

Personally, I am very thankful to have Kangen Water in my life.  I can drink clean alkaline water and also clean all my produce thoroughly of pesticides and bacteria.   Kangen Water

So check out this interesting article on  Your Tap Water

To your Health!

What is in Your Tap Water?

What is in that tap water you are drinking?  And if you don't think you are drinking it, then are you washing your foods with it?  Are you cooking with it?  If so, then you are ingesting it.
I was surprised to see that the tap water in my town has twice the number of chemicals than the average tap water.  Hmm....
Maybe you should check out your tap water and see what's in it---
A wonderful resource is: http://ewg.org/tap-water . This group has investigated tap water all over the country. You can put in your zip code and find out exactly what contaminants are in your water and what are over not only legal limit, but over health guidelines as well.

If you want to make healthy alkaline water out of your existing tap water then choose the highest quality unit on the market...the Enagic unit that creates Kangen Water.

Have a healthy day....http://www.healthy-environments.com/

Bottled Water Dilemma


Greetings!




Hopefully if you’re at this site and reading this you are well aware of the alternatives to using disposable bottles and recycle the ones you do. The advent of bottled water sent our already wasteful consumer culture into pollution overdrive and it’s a tremendous task to put the brakes on the momentum of this waste. Here is a list of plastic bottle fun facts that put the magnitude of this pollution into scope.


* Plastic bottles take 700 years to begin composting
* 90% of the cost of bottled water is due to the bottle itself
* 80% of plastic bottles are not recycled
* 38 million plastic bottles go to the dump per year in America from bottled water (not including soda)
* 24 million gallons of oil are needed to produce a billion plastic bottles
* The average American consumes 167 bottles of water a year
* Bottling and shipping water is the least energy efficient method ever used to supply water
* Bottled water is the second most popular beverage in the United States



Although it can be easy and convenient to pick up bottle beverage products the end cost to the environment is staggering. So be mindful when you drink…and remember, friends don’t let friends drink from disposables!
