Some 70,000 chemicals are being dumped into our environment, 65,000 of which are potentially hazardous to our health. We live in a virtual sea of pollutants, and carry many of these toxins within us. They can be found even in unborn children. A 2004 study by the Environmental Working Group identified 287 industrial chemicals in babies’ umbilical-cord blood, including 180 known to cause cancer and 217 that are toxic to the brain and nervous system.
As many as 25% of Americans are estimated to suffer from some degree of heavy metal poisoning, particularly from mercury, lead, cadmium and arsenic. We are also exposed to a significant amount of radiation and increasing viral attacks. Our immune systems are further compromised by poor nutrition and unhealthy lifestyles, and most of us suffer from an excessively acidic pH level, which creates an internal environment in which cancer – as well as viral, bacterial and fungal infections – can thrive.
SOURCES OF TOXIC POLLUTION Water – Chlorine, Fluorine Copper, Asbestos
Cosmetics and Toiletries – shampoos, soaps, cleaning and shaving products, cosmetics, toothpaste and mouthwash can all be absorbed through your skin or mouth. Aluminium is widely used in food packaging, cheaper forms of cookware, deodorants, antacid medications, public water supplies and toothpaste. Washing, cleaning, polishing, insulation materials, glues, solvents, carpet, paint, plastic, bleaching, deodorising, perfusing, antibacterial and thousands of other household products contain a myriad of chemicals you could not hope to be aware of.

8 Reasons Why You Should Drink Alkalized Water
However, all water is not the same. With increasing pollutants in our environment, the standard of our drinking water id deteriorating. Many health experts are now recommending that our drinking be filtered with a high quality filtration system. Increasing the alkalinity of our water has also been shown to provide numerous health benefits (our bodies have become too 'acidic'). High acidity can contribute to a range of symptoms and degenerative diseases such as arthritis, heart disease, headaches, fatigue, and skin conditions just to name a few. |
