Filtrete Water Filtration System Review

With the summer months behind us, you may not be thinking....water water water.  Keep them kiddos hydrated.  Well, yes...  and NO!  Their water intake may go down, but you still need to make sure their continuing to drink plenty of water.


Some fun water facts via freedrinkingwater.com

• Water serves as a lubricant
• Water forms the base for saliva
• Water forms the fluids that surround the joints.
• Water regulates the body temperature, as the cooling and heating is distributed through perspiration.
• Water helps to alleviate constipation by moving food through the intestinal tract and thereby eliminating waste- the best detox agent.
• Regulates metabolism {my fav}  **ALSO TO KEEP YOUR SKIN YOUNG LOOKING DRINK LOTS OF WATER!** {My Fact}

 While I have been guilty of buying those bottles of water.....Hey!  they're convenient! They are so so so bad for our earth.  I've traded in those throw aways for reusable stainless steel bottles that have become oh so trendy in my kids schools.  They're almost like canteens, but way cooler.

Out here in the sticks we have well water, uh yea well water.  You may think its fresh and better but not so much!  Atleast I did.  But if you saw what I saw in my waters holding tank, you'd run for the hills!  It's kind gross to think we were drinking this water willy nilly.

When our well took a dump on us, we had a guy come out and fix it.  It was the first time we saw the inside of the holding tank....it had green crap on it!!!  Please re read that.  OK grossed out?  Us too!  I had been drinking, cooking and washing  la la la.

Needless to say, we don't drink it anymore.  Or at least not as it was.

According to recent news and reports, most tap and well water in the U.S. are not safe for drinking due to heavy industrial and environmental pollution. Toxic bacteria, chemicals and heavy metals routinely penetrate and pollute our natural water sources making people sick while exposing them to long term health consequences such as liver damage, cancer and other serious conditions. We have reached the point where all sources of our drinking water, including municipal water systems, wells, lakes, rivers, and even glaciers, contain some level of contamination. Even some brands of bottled water have been found to contain high levels of contaminants in addition to plastics chemical leaching from the bottle.

A good water filtration system installed in your home is the only way to proactively monitor and ensure the quality and safety of your drinking water. Reverse osmosis water purification systems can remove 90-99% of all contaminants from city and well water to deliver healthy drinking water for you and your family.
