    WATER / H2O FACTS & WATER PROBLEMS

    Benefits of PiMag and Optimized Water LIVING WATER

    Vitalized by magnetic energy. (Breaks down the large clusters of molecules into smaller ones,

    makes water wetter) Filtration occurs through stainless steel screens, fine silk screens, 2 different carbon filters

    and coral sand chips which filter unhealthy substances down to the size of 0.1 micron.

    Removes bacteria, heavy metals and organic matters like chlorine.

    Ceramic balls ionize and add essential minerals and nutrients back into the water.

    Ceramic stones and clay reflect far-infra red energy back into the water.

    Creates alkaline water with a pH > 7 which carries more oxygen than acidic water.

    Improves taste and odour.

    Great for your body (through cooking, drinking and bathing), plants and animals.

    Cost effective.

    HEXAGONAL WATER - The best form of water for good health is hexagonal water. This is a

    structure of water that is comprised of 6 molecules that form a circle in structure. Research inKorea has shown that this is the type of water that exists in a healthy, living body. By creating

    hexagonal or pi-water we're drinking water that is more natural and easily used by the body.

    OXYGENATED WATER - Oxygenated water supplies plenty of oxygen directly and promptlyto the body's cells. Studies have shown that oxygenated water enhances athletic performance,

    improves cardiovascular and muscle endurance and reduces recovery time after exercise.

    ALKALINE WATER - Alkaline (Ionized) water passes through body tissue more efficiently than

    conventional water; therefore it hydrates us much more effectively. Alkaline water combats the

    acid condition caused by our modern diet to help maintain a healthy, disease-fighting system.Cancer and degenerative conditions abhor an oxygenated and alkaline environment.

    The bloods ideal pH Level 7.365

    Water/food around this level of alkalinity nourishes, cleanses & energizes the body

    Water/food which is acidic intoxicates, clogs & deprives the body of energy

    The bloods pH Level cannot become and remain acidic or you die!

    FACTS:

    There is no more new water the second water comes back to earth through the hydrological cycle, it

    starts accumulating particles of almost everything it touches.

    2.5 % of the Earths water is fresh, ONLY 0.6% of that is usable!! (most of it is frozen)

    The world is facing a critical shortage of fresh water 70% of the worlds water is used in agricultureand the remaining 30% is used in households and industry. With population growth, the amount usedin agriculture alone is expected to increase by 17%.

    The two main sources of drinking water in Canada are groundwater and surface water. Groundwater

    is recovered from underground aquifers at depths ranging from a few to hundreds of meters. Surfacewater is drawn from rivers and lakes.

    The World Health Organization estimates 1 billion people have unsafe drinking water and 2.1 million

    people die every year from unsafe water, 90% of these deaths are children.

    The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) has found more than 80 contaminants in our drinking

    water.

    Microscopic pathogens such as e-coli (Walkerton, Ontario), Cryptosporidium (North Battleford,Saskatchewan) and Giardia are making their way into our water systems.

    Water treatment plants add chlorine and fluoride, to our water supply to purify it. These substances

    are very unhealthy and have side effects, recent studies have linked them to major health issues suchas cancer, osteoporosis and birth defects.

    Less than 1% of this treated water is actually consumed through drinking and cooking.

    Chlorine levels in Ontario tap water have skyrocketed in the last two years (since the Walkerton

    epidemic). While "safe" chlorine levels are reported to be 0.5 ppm (parts per million), current levels

    stand around 2.0-4.0 ppm. By comparison, safe levels for pools range between 1.5-2.0 ppm.

    Other toxic substances include trihalomethanes (THM), trichloroethylene TCE, PCB, MTBE, benzene,

    aluminum, arsenic, asbestos, chromium, copper, lead, mercury etc.

    Runoff from agricultural areas can add pesticides and fertilizers to the water aquifers as well asbacteria contamination from surface supplies.

    New studies are detecting a wide range of PPCPs (Pharmaceutical and Personal Care Products) in

    our water. Many pharmaceuticals are passing through the body unchanged and are then recycledthrough our water systems.

    Most cities rely on aging distribution systems to carry water to consumers. Older pipes often developleaks that can lead to cross contamination with surface water and wastewater.

    Researchers estimate that 450 pounds of inorganic minerals and industrial pollutants are ingested byan individual through the drinking water he/she consumes in a lifetime.

    Caffeine from coffee, tea, soft drinks and alcohol amongst few others are diuretics, they dehydrate the

    body! Also these drinks are ACIDIC.

    It has been estimated that 75% of North Americans are chronically dehydrated and fail to drink therecommended daily amount of at least 8 cups.

    A 10 minute hot shower with chlorinated water is equivalent to drinking 8 glasses of the same water,

    absorption is one problem but our worst exposure is from the inhalation of the toxic chlorine gascontaining Chloroform, THM and TCE.

    OUR BODIES NEED FOR WATER

    Our body is composed of 70% water and this total amount is replaced every 15 days!

    75% of the weight of our upper body is supported by the water volume that is stored in

    the disc cores (especially the 5th lumbar disc)

    Heart 75% water Lungs 86% water Bones 30% water Liver 86% water Muscles 75% water Cartilage/Joints 50% waterBrain 75-85% water Blood 90% water and is replaced every 90 days

    WHY DRINK 8+ GLASSES OF PURE, FRESH WATER DAILY?C - Circulation Improves joint mobility

    A - Assimilation Eliminates various physical discomforts

    D - Digestion Maintains proper muscle tone

    E Elimination Improves skin tone, texture, and resilience

    T Temperature control Prevents and reverses premature aging

    Water is the universal solvent, and the mostimportant nutrient we consume daily

    Water is a natural diuretic

    Supplies the body's tissues with oxygen andnutrients

    Supresses appetite naturally

    Water is necessary for the chemical reactions in ourbody to occur through a process of hydrolysis

    Metabolizes stored fat; lose weight effortlessly,naturally, without strict dieting

    Water holds our cell contents in their properstructural place, allowing for optimal functioning

    Maintains body weight

    Rids the body of waste and flushes out toxins Relieves constipation, and diarrheaWater protects our body's cells from attacks fromdiseases, viruses, etc

    Increases energy levels, less fatigue

    If cells become water starved they become shriveledup, parched and dry, making it easier for foreigninvaders to enter the cells

    Water flows through our cell membranesgenerating hydroelectric energy (voltage) that isconverted and stored in our cells as energy (ATPand GTP)

    HOW MUCH WATER DOES YOUR BODY REQUIRE?

    A more recent measurement of the required daily intake of water is measured in ounces and can becalculated by taking half of your weight in lbs. Then add 1 cup for each hour of strenuous activity.

    e.g. 128 lbs 2 = 64 oz = gallon = 8 cups.

    From this we see that most adults should be drinking more than 8 cups a day.

    Fruits and vegetables are a very good source of water. Cantaloupe and melons contain more than 90per cent water, as do leafy vegetables such as lettuce. Kiwis, another great source of water, containessential electrolytes such as potassium and magnesium.

    At birth our body is 90 per cent water, decreasing to 75 per cent hydration by the age of three. As wegrow older, water levels can dip as low as 65 per cent.

    All of our vital organs utilize water to function properly. Your body can use up to 3 litres a day.

    Between seven and 11 quarts of water are needed just for proper digestion.

    The body uses about a pint of water every day solely through exhalation.

    The skin is the largest organ of elimination and under dry conditions, the body loses up to a quart anhour through perspiration alone.

    For every quart of water passed through the kidneys, 1- ounces of waste are carried with it.

    STAGES OF DEHYDRATION

    If you drink water only when youre mouth is dry, you are already dehydrated!

    WATER OPTIONS

    MUNICIPALY TREATED WATER Health Hazard.

    Chlorinated and Flouridated both are toxic chemicals.

    Can be acidic.

    WELL WATER No monitoring system, questionable.

    Can become contaminated overnight.

    BOILING WATER - Not effective - Inconvenient, energy/time consuming. No taste improvement.

    Must boil for 20 minutes to kill harmful bacteria (cysts & viruses) in emergency situations.

    Does not reduce particulates (heavy metals, sediments, toxic chemicals) and organic compounds.

    BOTTLED WATER Expensive, inconvenient and questionable and creates a landfill problem.Produced from spring, mineral, tap or distilled water.

    The quality is not regulated very well, very loose standards.

    May still contain bacteria, organics and inorganics.

    Plastic leaches into the water.

    Dasani & Aquafina are very acidic (deprived of natural minerals) while Evian and especially Montclairare excellent (but you'll pay for it!)

    BRITA Creates very ACIDIC water.Activated Carbon

    Good for chlorine reduction and some heavy metals.

    Requires regular filter replacements.

    CERAMIC FILTERS Needs to be coupled with a carbon filter to be effective.Forced through small holes to trap large particulates.

    Good particle reduction. Reusable after cleaning. Reduces bacteria.

    Requires cleaning and disinfection. Does not remove organics, inorganics or viruses.

    DISTILLATION Slow, noisy energy/time consuming and creates a very ACIDIC waterWater heated to steam and then condensed, leaving contaminants behind.

    Reduces chlorine, heavy metals, viruses & bacteria.

    Contaminants such as chloroform (carcinogen) which have a lower boiling point than water will remain in

    the end product. Can leach minerals from your body.

    May increase concentration of small organics.

    REVERSE OSMOSIS Wasteful (4-10 gallons to produce 1 gallon), expensive, slow and creates very ACIDIC water.Water pressure used to push through thin membrane.

    Reduces inorganics, can be designed to reduce organics.

    Membrane life is short.

    Chemotherapy for your water. Takes out all the bad and the good.

    ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT - Kills the bacteria but doesnt remove it.Water passes by intense UV source.

    Sterilizes water.

    Has no effect on organics or inorganics.

    CARBON BLOCK May not reduce all inorganics or viruses.Pressure forces through solid block of carbon. Reduces contaminants by physical screening, absorption or hydrogenbonding.

    Chlorine, heavy metals & organics reduced. No channeling. Can screen down to 0.2 microns.

    GRANULAR CARBON Leaves most minerals, inorganics, bacteria & viruses.Loosely packed carbon absorbs contaminants.

    Reduces chlorine and organics.

    SOFTENING Not recommended for drinking and usually creates ACIDIC water.Passes over bed of resin. Exchanges calcium and magnesium for sodium.
