Eco water systems - what your body needs to perform
Eco water systems are systems that remove impurities from water. Did you know your water may have harmful metals such as lead, iron and mercury in it? It can also be polluted with toxic chemicals from manufacturing waste, pesticides and animal waste. Many of you take an active role in preventing these items in your food by buying organic. Have you given thought to your water? Polluted water can cause a wide range of problems from organ damage to the liver and kidneys, to digestive track inflammation, to birth defects and neurological disorders. You want to be concerned with more than just your drinking water. The water you bathe in, brush your teeth with, wash your clothes and dishes in, and cook with is also important. Your skin absorbs all kinds of compounds from the clothes you wear and the towels you use. Once you stop to think about all the ways your body comes into contact with water, you will be shocked by how exposed you are to its harmful contaminants. An eco water system can be a whole house system that treats all of the water entering your home whether from a municipal source or a drilled well. Or it can be a small system that only deals with drinking water. The best way to know what you need is to have your water tested. All of the companies that sell water systems offer water testing. Based on the test results, a system can be tailored to meet your specific water problems. If you think you do not need an eco water system because you are on municipal water, think again. Municipal water is subject to the same contaminants as all other water sources. While a water facility does treat the water, it only has to meet minimum requirements. There still may be harmful chemicals in your water and the only way to know for sure, is to have it tested. Some companies will do the testing for free. I highly recommend taking this first step to see what your water situation is. If the test comes back clean, great, you have nothing to worry about. Piece of mind is certainly worth the effort to have it tested. If it doesn't come back clean, usually there are simple filter systems that can correct the problem. Either way, I want to know what I am exposing myself and my family to and I want to be in control of the solution if needed.
