Another great reason to start drinking “medical grade” Kangen Water…

Not to mention the petro chemicals which DO seep out of the plastic IS causing breast cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, neurological disorders, depression ect.. + 60% is nothing but tap H2O.

Bacteria in a bottle

bacteria.jpgbacteria.jpg You don’t need a fancy yogurt drink to get a mouthful of bacteria — a plain old bottle of water will do just fine.

 

A new study finds that bottled water is packed with a whole lot more than hydrogen and oxygen… it’s also crawling with nasty little microbes.But go ahead, pay $1.95 for another sip. Beverage company bigwigs are laughing all the way to the bank — and they’re sipping wine, not water, as they cash their bonus checks.Under U.S. rules, foods and other consumer goods should contain no more than 500 colony-forming units of heterotrophic bacteria per milliliter, which is already disgusting enough. But in tests on a dozen commonly available brands of water, Canadian researchers found higher levels of bacteria in 70 percent of them… in some cases 100 times that limit.And in one horrific case, the bottle contained 80,000 colony-forming units per milliliter.Where’d they fill those bottles from — the toilet? I wouldn’t be surprised… then again, the toilet was probably cleaner.

The researchers also tested plain old tap water and found much lower levels of bacteria, according to the study presented at a recent meeting of the American Society of Microbiology. But don’t turn to your tap just yet — because U.S. drinking water is jumping with everything from sex-change drugs to rocket fuel.

“Dead Zones” Multiplying Fast, Coastal Water Study Says

15 08 2008

“Dead zones” are on the rise, says a new study that identified stark growth in the number of coastal areas where the water has too little oxygen to sustain marine life.

There are now more than 400 known dead zones in coastal waters worldwide, compared to 305 in the 1990s, according to study author Robert Diaz of the Virginia Institute of Marine Science.

Those numbers are up from 162 in the 1980s, 87 in the 1970s, and 49 in the 1960s, Diaz said. In the 1910s, four dead zones had been identified.

Diaz and co-author Rutger Rosenberg, of the University of Gothenburg in Sweden, said in a press release that dead zones are now “the key stressor on marine ecosystems” and

A global map of “dead zones”—where coastal waters contain too little oxygen to sustain life—shows (as black dots) a concentration in the Northern Hemisphere, where human activity has had the most effect.

As of August 2008, there were more than 400 known “dead zones,” scientists said, up from just over 300 in the 1990s.

The Truth About Bottled Water

3 05 2008

Warning This Video Contains Language that Some May Find Offensive.

But it really hits home about bottled water. I think it is a must watch.

Of course I have my own opinion about bottled water. Enjoy the video.



Bottled water: No longer cool?

13 12 2007

Yep - water costs the same as soda and three times as much as the gas.

Some brands like PepsiCo’s Aquafina are made from filtered tap water.

 

 

So critics are asking: Why drink bottled water?

After all, it’s pricey. Packaging and shipping water consumes energy and contributes to global warming. Empty bottles add to litter and solid waste. And, as a rule, bottled water is no safer or healthier than the H2O that flows from municipal water systems.

What’s more, blind taste tests, while wholly unscientific, often show that few people can distinguish between bottled and tap water.

No wonder environmentalists, shareholder activists and church groups are targeting Coca-Cola (Charts, Fortune 500), PepsiCo (Charts, Fortune 500) and Nestle (Charts), the leading sellers of bottled water. Some examples: Read full article

Juan’s comment:

A great way to make a difference and correct the situation is to use an ionized alkaline producing water filter. The very best water ionizer is the Leveluk SD501 by Enagic. Take a look at the online SD501 brochure here.

The benefits of drinking ionized alkaline water are numerous, starting with the many benefits to your body. The other very important factor is the impact on the environment. I believe that it’s time that everyone start to think about what they are putting in their bodies, where they are putting their money and think about the planet we live on and how to help the planet heal. Every time that we do our part it’s a step in the right direction. By using a counter-top water ionizer we not only get the best hydrating water for our bodies we also reduce the use of plastic and we save money. Yes, you will actually save a lot of money in the long run by owning a Kangen water device.
