If i had the money i would buy a reverse osmosis water softener though

I read in an amazing health food book, can’t remember which one, but it recommended adding either 1/4 or 1/2 tsp of calcium to the water in order to bond with the floride rendering it harmless. The water is a cloudy white afterward.

I also agree with the addition of himalayan rock salt to the water to remineralize it.

When you think about it, spring water gets its minerals from rocks and decomposing leaves. I’ve also heard about a method to make moon water by putting water in a clear class pitcher and placing a stone in the water leaving it in the moonlight all night. This can help with the rock mineralizing the water.

Don’t forget sun tea. Sun tea is great source of sunkissed minerals!

great work kev

We went to see about the water filter systems today and there are some pretty cool systems out there. My water softener is almost 20 years old and the new ones are so sleek and compact.. with lots of toys, like a digital display and converter.. wow! ,carbon filters that are backwashed and don’t need changing for the lifetime of the unit. You can get potassium salts now instead of sodium and pellets that are really clean instead of the old sodium rocks and you can rent them for around $30 a month.

I also found out that the reverse osmosis unit sits under you sink and is just for the kitchen, but some can go to 3 rooms instead of one. Also, changing filters in the new ECO system doesn’t even require turning the water off.

I’m still a little partial to what I’ve heard about the Jupiter system for the kitchen though. It is about half the price of the Kangen unit and I’ve heard it is better. I like the idea of being able to choose between acid and alkaline water right at the tap. That’s pretty advanced.

Just wanted to thank you, first of all, because without this show, I never would have looked in the phone book to see what water companies we have here, and I found a really neat place that just opened recently called ‘Water Central’. We’re going to check it out on Saturday. They have whole house reverse osmosis systems and I believe the website said we can rent to own or lease them so we can stick to a small monthly cost for a while.

I, too, would like to know what the 3 tier system is you are using and also… my husband is allergic to chlorine so its really important that we get the chlorine out of the water as it enters the house because it affects his hands when he washes them in any of the sinks. I’m guessing the whole house reverse osmosis system is what we need. Can you let me know if I am right about that.

Also.. if we can add minerals back to the water we are drinking, is there such thing as a whole house distillation system and is that a better choice because it gets rid of bacteria as well? I really don’t know much about water filters at all.

You can’t talk about healthy water without talking about alakaline water, i.e. water ph, which can be tested with ph solutions and a ph solution chart.

Here are my questions i would like you to address:

1) How do I get alakaline water without spending $1500 on a machine? Nevermind that I don’t want to spend over $200.
2) How do I get rid of the fluoride, again with the same parameters as question #1.
3) I live in an apartment, and love to take long hot baths, what can I do to takeout the chlorine, fluoride, and other undesirables.
4) Can you reccomend and all around “water tester kit” at a decent cost, and all the variables/criteria we should be looking for in ‘good water’.
