Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) is a measurement of everything in your water – good and bad. The amount of TDS in water affects its taste, too little TDS (soft water) , and water tastes flat and insipid. This is why many people find drinking pure water (such as distilled) to be unpleasant. Most water that has high levels of TDS will contain high amounts of calcium and magnesium. When those minerals are present, high levels of TDS in drinking water will cause an unpleasant aftertaste. When water has high levels of calcium and magnesium,  it is called hard water; water with low levels of calcium and magnesium is called soft water. ... read more >>

Whole Home Filtration can save Thousands Dolphin Whole Home Filtration, the system that pays for itself! Did you know that in addition to protecting your health, a whole home filtration system also saves you money! There are direct savings from not having to buy bottled water; an average family of four spends about $500 per year on bottled water. There are indirect savings as well, because whole home filtration prevents expensive hard water damage to plumbing and appliances. Treating hard water saves energy too, because hot water heaters use more energy when they become clogged with hard water deposits. Preventing hard water damage saves on average... read more >>

Clinical alkaline water system for scientists and doctors Clinical Alkaline Water for Doctors and Scientists Alkaline water is used in clinical settings for many reasons. Doctors use it in combination with other treatments in their practice to improve and maintain the health of their patients. Scientists use it in the laboratory to study its effects on everything from microscopic organisms to humans. The water produced in these settings often must adhere to strict standards: Must have specific amounts of minerals Must be a specific pH Must meet minimum –ORP requirements (Oxidation Reduction Potential) Must be... read more >>

Kangen® Water may contain Toxic Heavy Metals Waning: This machine may make unsafe water! Kangen® water is promoted by Enagic® Corporation as a healthier form of alkaline ionized mineral water, but is it? Information found on Enagic®’s website shows that due to inadequate filtration, Enagic®’s Kangen water®  may contain dangerous toxins. Buried in the fine print, it says: “Elements not removable – Metallic ions and/or salinity present in the original tap water.” What are Metallic Ions? Metal molecules that have taken on an electrical charge are referred to as metallic ions. Metallic ions are commonly found in tap water, and with... read more >>

Reverse Osmosis removes minerals from water, making it unsafe to drink Reverse Osmosis (RO) is one of the most effective filtration methods available; it removes over 99% of all dissolved solids from water. In a quest for safe water, many people turn to reverse osmosis systems in the mistaken belief that since the water is clean, it is healthy to drink. Astonishingly, nothing could be further from the truth, people who drink reverse osmosis water are in very real danger of becoming mineral deficient, which, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) is detrimental to your health. Water – The Universal Solvent Water is known in chemistry... read more >>

Travel water ionizers provide some of the benefits of alkaline water, but just like “travel size” toothpaste and shampoo, they are smaller versions of home based water ionizers. Portable Water Ionizer Offers “Coffee Maker” Convenience   The world's most convienent water ionizer The LIFE Fuzion™ is a truly portable water ionizer. The Fuzion works just like a coffee maker; you simply pour water into the... read more >>

Alkaline Water and Milk both contain Essential Minerals Alkaline Water has essential minerals in it like milk, but without the additives Mainstream medical experts commonly recommend milk as a source of essential dietary minerals, especially to women over 30 that are at risk for osteoporosis. Despite this recommendation, the US currently has the highest rate of osteoporosis in the world. Compare this statistic with Japan, which enjoys one of the lowest rates of osteoporosis in the world. What are the Japanese doing right? Besides eating better than Americans, they also drink alkaline water. Alkaline water and milk both contain essential minerals... read more >>

No such thing as Ionized Water? Skeptics of  ionized water claim that “the term ionized water is meaningless to chemists.” But at the same time, many people claim that there are benefits of ionized water that they have experienced personally. So who’s right? They both are, and here’s why. Water itself can’t be ionized, but the minerals in it can be. That is why the term “ionized water” is meaningless to chemists, if you take the term “mineral” out of ionized mineral water it becomes meaningless, the critics are right, there is no such thing. Much of the advertising and information touting ionized water is misleading for this... read more >>
