patty Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 Hi all, We use a Brita filter to filter the water and then boil it in a tea kettle before drinking. Does anyone know if this is sufficient to have "clean and pure" drinking water for detoxification or just regular consumption? or should I still look into drinking reverse osmosis water (aquafina or Dansani)? Our Naturopath recommended: Evian, Pellargino, Alhambra Crystal Fresh. I think there are not reverse osmosis water, just spring water. BTW, we have always drink boiled water because the boiling process changes the constitution of the water (TCM). But we have only been using the Brita filter for about 9 mos. Your input is appreciated. Patty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claire Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 Patty, So much depends on your current state in terms of metal toxicity. We had so many metals that our doctor told us to get the RO filter (and carbon filters). We have the Multi-pure 750+RO. 800-622-9206 Now I ordered an electrolyte concentrate to put some of the good things back in... Claire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemar Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 Hi Patty we have always been told that reverse osmosis is best we have a Culligan reverse osmosis system and if we drink bottled, we use aquafina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 Hi Patty we have always been told that reverse osmosis is best we have a Culligan reverse osmosis system and if we drink bottled, we use aquafina We also have a reverse osmosis system for our drinking water and a salt water system for our bathing water. If we ever find a need to buy water it would be aquafina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claire Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 Too funny! Aquafina is the bottled water that we buy also...it just 'tastes' the best to both my son and me! (Which probably means it is more similar to our own filtered water). Claire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patty Posted November 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 Thank you all for your input. I just purchased some Aquafina bottle water yesterday and my son loves the taste. Patty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quan_daniel Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 I have RO and Salt water system for bath. We drink water as well use the RO water for cooking. Should I get Aquafina? Should I buy their stocks :-)? I hope our Culligan RO system is good enough for drinking. I am so afraid it is not for our kids. CHemar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemar Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Hi Daniel the Culligan Reverse Osmosis system makes the water fine for drinking Just remember to keep it well serviced Aquafina is just the bottled water we would drink when we are out etc it is also RO water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quan_daniel Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Chema, Aquafina has an interesting 7 steps purifying process. I just visited their website since so many people here buy them. THe last step is called OZONIZATION.. passing oxygen into water..creating h30 then split back to h20...a process that claims to remove purity... Safe?

firm believer Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 I'm recently reading lots of books about the water. After reading all those books, I increase lots of appreciation towards God's creation. Nature is always the best IF IT IS NOT POLLUTED BY MAN. Our whole familly have been drinking water from our RO system for about a year. Now I found out my daughter is mineral deficiency. After all the reasearch I have done, I think 50% of the reason because of the RO water. It is true you can get very clean water from RO system, but it is just too clean, it lacks of useful mineral, therefore it is very acid (that's also part of reason my daughter's body is extremely acid). The problem with the RO water is not just too clean. It is a very complicated issue when comes to man pollute the water resource and now try to fix it by filter, RO system or distill, etc. You can listen the vedio presentation from the following webpage: http://futurewatertoday.com/ I'm not saying you shoulc buy the product from that page, I'm not going to do that either, it is too much. But you can get some new idea about the water. Besides the above I mention, it is also very important for water keep PH value around 7-7.5 and keep hexagonal structure like you find in the nature spring water. That's the water truely hydrate, detox your body. So in my opinion, (just my own opinion), if you buy RO system, then you shoold add something into the water to make it alkaline, have hexagonal structure if it is possible. But the best is always nature's spring water. It did not have something manmade to give side effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cum Passus Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 Very interesting reading. I was wondering about Perrier, could you do both RO and perrier?My son like the carbonation, kind of feels like a soda. C.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chemar Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 Cum Passus SYFO seltzer water is healthy and tastes so good Firm Believer where I agree that what God has made is best, sadly man has contaminated so much of it and even natural springs are becoming polluted and toxic we replenish our minerals that are lost in RO water by using the homeostatic products recommended in The Maker's Diet by Dr Jordan Rubin we started following the Maker's Diet principles to benefit my son, but our whole family has reaped the rewards!

Claire Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 Yes Firmbeliever. People who drink filtered water are often deficient in Lithium. (That is why we carefully, occasionally supplement lithium). I recently got a concentrated electrolyte solution to add to the RO water to replace some of the minerals. (like a gatorade without the sugar or artificial crud). But you have to manage carefully how much you add back in, also... It doesn't have to be in the water, but yes, one must be aware that you are removing all the minerals with RO and accommodate. Claire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
