Are you concerned about the quality of drinking water in your home? Do you buy bottled water or have some kind of home water filtration? If you answered yes to either one of these questions, please read on. If you haven't thought about the quality of the water you drink, perhaps its about time you did. All municipal water is treated with chlorine to control bacteria. This chlorine ends up in our bodies and has been linked to numerous health problems including cancer and heart attacks. Lead contamination, coming from the piping that leads to our homes, has been found to cause damage to the nervous systems of small children, leading to significant learning disabilities and lowered IQs. There are other numerous contaminants (Natural Resources Defense Council estimates about 70,000 chemicals are used in our society and makes clear that only 100 of them are regulated). Of those 100 regulated there were 230,000 violations of the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act by public water systems in the United States. Available are cutting edge water filtration systems for traveling, the countertop as well as for the whole home. The price per gallon works out to be around 4 cents. Its easy to install, has a life around 10,000 gallons, and it comes with a 3 year warranty. In fact, Good Housekeeping magazine has also given the filter a one year money back guarantee.
