3 Even small levels of dehydration can contribute to: Headaches Dizziness Tiredness Loss of concentration Hypertension Weight gain Kidney failure Constipation Muscle cramps Body aches In many cases you re not sick Your body is just thirsty!

4 Did you know The water we drink today is the same water we ve had since the beginning of time. It is constantly being recycled. However, in the last century alone we have contaminated and polluted our environment more than since the beginning of time! Pesticides & herbicides, fertilizers, industrial solvents and even prescription medications are now commonly found in our ground water.

5 Our water is processed with multiple chemicals at the water treatment plant Then it flows through miles of pipes, some 40, 50, 80 or more years old, picking up bacteria, viruses, sediment, heavy metals, and even lead. Boil Water Alerts Over 240,000 water main breaks occur annually in the U.S. causing the presence of bacterial contamination in the drinking water. By the time we are aware of this in many cases the contaminated water may have already been consumed.

6 Is your drinking water really safe? Council on Environmental Quality Cancer risk among people drinking chlorinated water is 93% higher than among those whose water does not contain chlorine WARNING: YOUR DRINKING WATER MAY BE DANGEROUS Chemicals, gasoline, wastes they re all contaminating the nation s water supplies far worse than anyone expected. pharmaceuticals, especially antibiotics and steroids, are widely present in the nation's water supply. Sewage treatment plants are not equipped to remove them. When chlorine is added to our water, it combines with natural compounds to form Trihalomethanes (THMs) cancer scientist believe THMs are responsible for the majority of human cancer in the U.S. Dr. Robert Carson University of Minnesota Researcher Breast cancer, which now affects one in every eight women in North America, has recently been linked to the accumulation of chlorine compounds in the breast tissue EPA United States Environmental Protection Agency Well water should be constantly tested for bacteria, nitrates, lead, arsenic, radon, uranium and certain other heavy metals. Wells are very susceptible to contamination.

7 What is in your water? Odors Chlorine Cryptosporidium E. Coli Giardia cysts Asbestos Bacteria Pesticides Lead Herbicides Silt and rust Bad taste Trihalomethanes If you wouldn t swim in your swiming pool when it is first filled with water, why would you drink or prepare your food with it?

8 What are our options? Bottled water is sometimes convenient, unfortunately it also is: Expensive Quality is questionable There have been many bottle water recalls Plastic bottles are exposed to high heat through transportation Not fresh We don t wash foods with it We don t cook with it Environmentally unfriendly Plastic bottles are not biodegradable; it takes 1,000 years or more to decompose.

9 Water Filters Carbon filters do not stop bacteria or cysts, they can actually grow mold and bacteria and can be dangerous! Faucet, Refrigerator and Pitcher Types Limited efficiency Costly filter replacement Carbon Water Filters During a boil water alert bacteria may enter the filter These systems remove minerals so water is flat and tasteless: Reverse Osmosis High maintenance Makes a limited supply of water Takes up valuable under counter space Water Softeners Will not remove the chemicals, bacteria or cysts Costly to use, mantain and service Must continually add salt Distillers Expensive and costly to service Operate on electricity Useless during power failure Studies shown an association with drinking demineralized water with higher health risk HEALTH RISKS FROM DRINKING DEMINERALIZED WATER Soft water, i.e. water low in calcium, is associated with a higher risk of fracture in children, certain neurodegenerative diseases, pre-term birth, low weight at birth and some types of cancer. In a study comparing the health records of 11,400 Wisconsin male farmers, the farmers who drank soft water suffered from heart disease, whereas, the farmers who drank hard water were, for the most part free of the problem. - Oak Ridge National Laboratory Carico has the ultimate solution!
