Things you should know
'Water, water, everywhere'

Bottled water is the No. 1 consumed product being purchased in many stores. Why?
In 1970 America bolted away from their tap water source to soda, coffee and other beverages. Now a single pint of water costs $1.25. (Do the math - 8 pints to a gallon equals $10 a gallon for water!) We all are fools to buy dead flat water in a plastic bottle.
Thirty-six years ago, the chemical chlorine arrived at 80 percent of America's homes. What did we do? Here is what happened: most stopped drinking nature's first soft drink - water, and switched to alternative beverages. America went from an alkaline to an acid state.
Along came Tagamint, Tums, Zantex, plus a lot more antacids. We began the acid route. Cancer lives in an acid state but can not live in an alkaline state. Parents protected their children from drinking tap water and got them juice boxes or soda.
I know of no school teachers that drink tap water. They have water coolers in their teachers' rooms. The children see this and wonder why the teachers aren't drinking from the tap. Children now have to buy bottled water in schools. What a disgrace - charging children for a bottle of water.
Wait, there is more.
Asthma exploded between 1970 and 1980 and the AMA is dumbfounded for a reason. The reason could be as simple as this! Children are dehydrated and need good water. Simply do a beverage survey of 100 children and ask them about water and how much a day they consume. You will be surprised. I have studied this problem for 25 years and will take on the best the AMA has to offer.
Simply put, the body cannot function correctly when you substitute water with soda or coffee that contains caffeine which triggers the urinary process. What goes in must come out. What is the first thing a hospital hooks you up to on admission? An IV - $450 installed. It takes 20 days to manually re-hydrate yourself. At the hospital, it is done in hours.
Has anyone ever asked you how much water a day you consume? Not likely.
When you went to work, your pets got a bowl of water and food, but not your children. Children are growing at a rapid rate and their brains are not fully networked until between 8 and 11 years old. We do not come into this life with a manual on what we should drink. We seem to know very quickly though, not to give our precious pets soda, coffee, and a lot of other liquids the human animal consumes.
You need sun, food, air, and yes - water to live. As a guideline, you should drink 6 to 8 glasses of water (half of your body weight in ounces) a day. 87 percent of all bottled water is just tap water. Brita knows this and is owned by - (guess who?) - Clorox. In 1970 America switched from glass bottles, paper straws and waxed paper to chlorinated water and plastics.
Finally, I have to ask this question: if the water in your home isn't good enough for your family to drink, then why would you shower in it? Chlorine is put into swimming pools and your water supply to kill bacteria and organic matter. We are all made of living organic and have helpful bacteria in our stomachs and on our bodies. We shower, bathe, swim in and drink water containing chlorine that is designed to kill what we are made of.
What can we do? There are products that address these issues and can help you make your water safer. When people start using clean water again, many health problems will be eliminated.
