Why do I need a water distiller?
Your body is 75% water. After oxygen, it is the most important substance your body needs to take in on a daily basis to stay healthy. Most people do not drink nearly enough water to keep their body functioning at its highest capacity. With less than 32 ounces of water per 50 pounds of body weight per day, most people will become sub-clinically dehydrated and negatively affect all systems of the body.
Some important facts to know are:
-
A newborn baby is 78% water.
-
A young adult is 72% water.
-
An elderly person is 50% water.
-
Your brain is 85% water.
Why does water content drop 22% from young adult to elderly? The answer is: not enough water consumption. If the brain is 85% water and with lower water intake the body is losing more and more water, this water loss is going to negatively affect the brain and nervous system function first. Since the nervous system controls all other systems, you can begin to see how decreased water intake can negatively impact your entire health.
The next question is: If I am going to drink 32 ounces of water per 50 pounds of body weight daily, what is the best water to drink because all tap water is highly toxic?
- More than 700 chemicals have been found in our drinking water, and 129 of these chemicals have been cited by the EPA as posing serious health risks. Yet the EPA only requires water to be tested for about 80 of these chemicals.
- Some of the toxins in tap water include cancer causing substances like arsenic, benzene, chlorine, fluoride, lead, THM’s (trihalomethanes), MTBE(fuel additive), nitrates and nitrites (from fertilizers), radon, nuclear waste, perchlorate
(component of rocket fuel)
The answer is: the purest, which is steam distilled, post carbon filtered water. Why? Because it essentially has nothing in it but water molecules. If someone drinks reverse osmosis water, they are drinking purified water with inorganic minerals, which cannot be used properly in the body. These are the same inorganic minerals that clog the pipes in your house. They can do the same in your body. Also, with reverse osmosis water, if the filters are not changed exactly on the set schedule, the water quality goes way down and bacteria start to enter your drinking water. The reason distilled water purchased at the store is not recommended is because:
1.) It is in plastic containers, which can leach out of the container and negatively affect your health.
2.) Bottled, distilled water does not have to be post filtered after the distillation process. This post filter ensures the purest water.
The Waterwise 8800 is the best choice for beginning water distillation units because of the following:
1.) It is easy to use and easy to clean. It has a digital display that tells you when it needs to be cleaned.
2.) It has post carbon filtration that ensures the purest water.
3.) It can produce up to four gallons per day of pure water.
Water is such a critical factor in our health and healingone that has sadly been neglected by most people. Start drinking to your health and your family’s health today with the purest water available.
