Types of Water Systems |

Boiled Water |
Boiled water is 'dead' water. Although boiling removes free chlorine from tap water, it also 'destroys' oxygen
and nutritional minerals in the water. Boiled water tastes flat and makes water acidic too. |
Bottled Water |
Bottled Water Dispenser |
Distilled Water |
How They Work & Their Effects |
The quality of bottled water is not always consistent and depends on the source.
Good quality water must be in contact with oxygen in the air for continuous
molecular movement. Bottled water does not have fresh activation and this destroys oxygen and mineral
ions. |
Most employees (and a small number of home users) get their drinking water from suppliers
of 5-gallon bottled water. These suppliers also provide dispensers
for as long as they order a minimum quantity of bottled water every week.
Unbeknown to customers, these dispensers have no mechanism to control bacteria growth, thus making the drinking water susceptible
to bacterial contamination. Besides this potential source of contamination, users also face storage space problems for the large bottles. Moreover, there is also the difficulty and potential hazards of having to lift and fit these bottles into place. Finally, users do not own the bottled water dispensers and the costs per litre can be very expensive in the long run. |
Distilled water is produced through the process of distillation where water to be
processed is vaporised and then condensed. While the process removes impurities
it also removes beneficial natural minerals. Water in its natural state always contains minerals. Because distilled water does not contain minerals, it is in an unnatural state that it automatically tries to correct. It does this by combining with any other substances it comes in contact with. As such distilled water can be considered 'aggressive". Distilled water will react with the bottle material (PVC, PET etc.) and absorb some of its components. Thus drinkers of distilled water also ingest a small proportion of the bottle material! Good quality water should be fresh, with dissolved minerals, nutrients and oxygen. Tests confirm that plants and fishes do not grow well with distilled water, as they need activated minerals and oxygen to grow. Distilled water is also acidic and tastes flat. Essential minerals such as Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Potassium, etc. that are necessary for maintaining good health are also removed. |
