Animal Agriculture and Global Warming are to Blame The Clean Water Act was passed over 50 years ago.  Sadly, a new analysis has found that it has fallen well short of its goals.  Most of America’s natural water is so polluted it is unusable.  Who’s to blame?  Animal agriculture.  Runoff from meat factories has caused most of the pollution entering our waterways.  Global warming is also a factor.  It’s all

Should You Drink Deuterium-Free Water? We have been receiving many questions lately about deuterium-free water. Honestly, we had to look it up! It didn’t take much digging to discover that there is an MLM company out there that is touting the benefits of removing deuterium from your drinking water. But it turns out that deuterium-free water is just another MLM scam that you should avoid. Is Deuterium Really Bad For

Ionized Water is Hydrogen Water Did you know that our water ionizers produce 1500 parts per billion of dissolved hydrogen in each glass of ionized water that you drink? Yes, that means that ionized water is also hydrogen water. This may come as a surprise to many people because we are often asked how our products compare to hydrogen water machines. Our answer is simple: our water ionizers do everything

Keep Your Heart Healthy One Glass of Ionized Water at a Time Did you know that besides hosting Valentine’s Day, February is also American Heart Month? This is the month to focus on the most important organ in our body, our heart, and learn how to keep it healthy. There is a strong correlation between how much water you drink and the quality of the water you drink and the

The EPA’s Tap Water Quality Standards Aren’t Strict Enough and Your Health is at Risk A groundbreaking new study in Minnesota has shown a clear link between PFAs in tap water and infertility, premature birth, and low birth weight babies in women. The peer-reviewed study involved 50,000 cases and was published in the Journal of Environmental Health. According to the researchers, from 2001 to 2006, babies born in Oakdale, Minnesota

The EPA Only Monitors Some Dangerous Chemicals — The Rest is Up to You There are approximately 170,000 public water systems in the United States that monitor our tap water for about 80 harmful contaminants.  These contaminants include bacteria, viruses, pesticides, petroleum products, nuclear by-products, etc. But there are many potentially dangerous chemicals in our drinking water that the EPA doesn’t monitor, such as chemicals from prescription drugs, lotions, and

Cold Weather Increases Nitrogen and Sodium Chloride in our Drinking Water One question that has come up in the last couple of weeks is how does winter affect drinking water quality? Winter affects water quality in two ways. One is that it increases the amount of sodium chloride in our water. Sodium chloride is what is used to salt the roads to keep them free from Ice. The second effect

Rainfall and Population Affect Water Quality The amount of rainfall where you live strongly impacts water quality. If you live somewhere like Portland Oregon where there is plenty of rain, the aquifers are fresh and the water pumped out to your home is clean. But if you live somewhere where there isn’t as much rain, the underground water doesn’t get replenished as much and becomes stagnant. This is when you

Most of us trust that the water coming from our taps is safe. But did you know that 63 million Americans have been exposed to unsafe drinking water at least once in the last decade? That’s nearly a fifth of everyone in the United States! What this means is that the EPA has detected over 680,000 water quality violations, exposing unsuspecting Americans to potentially harmful water. It is vital that

Home Water Quality is Deteriorating The United States is privy to some of the best aquifers and water reservoirs in the world. Areas around the Great Lakes and the Northwest have pristine water sources that feed American homes. Then why is it imperative that every American home have a home water filter system? It’s because the infrastructure that supplies water to us is in disrepair and water quality overall continues
