Did you know that some whole house water filters strip the water you drink of health benefits? Drinking water is a primary source of vitamin intake. If you start drinking de-mineralized water, your body will become deficient in one, if not many, essential minerals. And this can cause all kinds of health problems.
So which minerals are in tap water?
Magnesium - almost 90 percent of people are deficient in this mineral. It helps your body absorb two other essential minerals---potassium and calcium. It also may help prevent cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis.
Chloride and Bicarbonates - both are vital to digestion and keeping the ph balance in the stomach and intestines.
Iron - it produces hemoglobin and myoglobin. Hemoglobin is the molecule in red blood cells that delivers oxygen from lungs to tissues. Myoglobin supplies oxygen to muscles.
Sulfate - acts as a cleansing and detoxifying agent in the body. It's also good for strong teeth.
These are some of the health benefits you'll miss out on if you buy a particular type of whole house water filter. It's called a reverse-osmosis filter and takes everything out of water---the contaminants and the essential minerals listed above. I don't recommend it.
With the mineral content of our fruits and vegetables already degraded by modern farming practices and cooking, the minerals you receive from water become that much more vital.
Also, drinking de-mineralized water is bad for you. Unlike regular tap water, it's acidic, so when you drink it, your body has to take minerals from teeth and bones to neutralize the acid. In clinical studies, when body fluids become more acidic than alkaline, cancer-causing free radical production increases. Zoltan Rona, President of the Canadian Holistic Medical Association once stated that "The ideal water for the human body should be slightly alkaline and this requires the presence of minerals like calcium and magnesium".
With today's knowledge of how water benefits health, using reverse osmosis whole house water filters makes no sense. So if you're searching for a filter to purify all the water in your house, look for one that removes the contaminants, but leaves water rich in minerals.
At my website, I discuss the best whole house water filters, the ones that give you peace of mind that your drinking water is pure and full of minerals.
