WAter Is Not Free!

There are over 144,000 man made chemicals. Over 20,000 have been found in drinking water sources. Most cities and towns in North America, only guarantee drinking water to be safe from e-coli and bacteria!
What about all the other chemicals, contaminants, pollution, medications … You are on your own!
Filtering the water is a band-aide on a broken bone as filtering only ‘reduces/lowers’ contaminants in the water, PURIFICATION eliminates!
Forever Healthy Drinking Water Purification Systems, ‘ELIMINATE‘ 99%+ toxins in the water!
We have multiple stages of pre-filtering, then purify, and then re-charge, re-structure the clean water to create the ultimate pure, energized drinking water systems.
Use a filter or be a filter!

When Arnold Ehret, Paul Bragg, Herbert Shelton, and Norman Walker wrote about distilled water many years ago back in the early to mid 1900’s, there was no other method of purifying water as there is today. So it was wise advice for its time. However… (continue reading)
THE POWER OF ‘LIVING’ WATERQ & A - Commonly Asked Water Questions
Q: What is TDS / PPM?
A: Total Dissolved Solids, the total measurement by weight of all solids that are dissolved in water. It is not a measurement of specific contamination. Tests which measure the conductivity of water only give a rough estimate of dissolved solids and should not be viewed as total an indicator of water quality.
Q: Is Chlorine harmful?
A: Yes in my opinion.
Most cities in North America use chlorine, and we have to say the levels used in water are safe. NOTE: Most city water supplies in North America reduce/remove only 2 contaminants: e-coli and bacteria. My opinion is chemical chlorine is not a food and therefore not safe! There are many references to the potential harm of chlorine.
Chlorine was first added to a community water system in 1908 in Chicago. In the 1970 it was discovered that chlorine, when added to water, forms Trihalomethanes (chlorinated by-products). In 1992 the American Journal of Public Health published a report that showed a 15% to 35% increase in certain types of cancer for people who consume chlorinated water and shower in chlorinated water.
The National Cancer Institute reports cancer risks for people who consume chlorinated water to be 93% higher than for people who do not shower in chlorine! The effects of drinking chlorinated water have been debated for decades. However, most experts now agree that there are some significant risks related to consuming chlorine and chlorinated by-products.
Most swimming pools also use chlorine. A safer alternative is Bromine and or ozone!
Some cities are now using ozone instead of chlorine in the drinking water supply, which removes bacteria viruses by injecting a safer natural gas. Hopefully all cities and countries will use this method,
Q: Why do some areas test negative for chlorine?
A: Virtually all city water systems contain some level of chlorine or chloramine. Some cities use both chlorine and chloramine. Chloramine is a combination of chlorine and ammonia. Most shower filters only remove chlorine.
The FOREVER HEALTHY WHOLE HOUSE SYSTEMS remove both chlorine and chloramine.
Q: What are VOCs?
A: Volatile Organic Chemicals are synthetic compounds that turn into vapor at warm to hot temperatures.. Most synthetic chemicals found in water, such as pesticides and herbicides, are VOCs. This is why chlorine in a hot shower or bath makes it so harmful! Taking a warm/hot shower releases the gases/vapors of the chlorine chemicals which is estimated to be greater exposure than drinking chlorinated water.
We recommend to use either a shower filter or whole house filter system for chlorine and/or chloramine removal in the bath and shower.
Q: How does a water softener differ from filtration products?
A: Water softeners are not designed to improve the healthfulness of water, but rather to decrease hard minerals and reduce scaling of pipes and appliances.
A better eco-friendly and less expensive alternative is our FOREVER HEALTHY WATER AQUA MAGNA DESCALER. Please visit the page to see the many benefits, no maintenance, substantially lower cost by using a AQUA MAGNA DESCALER.
Q: Are water products NSF approved?
A: Please look for NSF filters that are tested and meet certain standards for water quality.
NOTE: To have a water system to be NSF certified, it can cost upwards of $50,000! Yes that’s right. And…. if anything part/s on the system change, it costs thousands to get entire system re-certified. Not financially practical for most water systems and suppliers.
Our systems are all NSF certified parts.
Q: Are filtration products considered purifiers?
A: Technically, a purifier would be a system that uses one or more of the three ways to purify water.
- 1. Distillation – 98%
- 2. De-ionization – 90%
- 3. Reverse Osmosis.- 99%+
The FOREVER HEALTHY LIVING WATER SYSTEM uses Reverse Osmosis and multiple other stages of pre-filtering and post restructuring to remove 99% or more of impurities.
I like to describe filtering water as putting a band-aide on a broken bone.
*Filtering reduces, PURIFYING ELIMINATES!
Q: How does reverse osmosis (r.o.) compare to distillation systems?
A: Distilled water is cooked, boiled and very low energy water and will cannot be restructured to the same level as our FOREVER HEALTHY LIVING WATER Purification system.
Distilled is known to raise a human beings white blood cell count because the water is ‘empty’, acidic water.
Long term use of drinking water should be;
- 1. An R.O.(reverse osmosis) filter/ membrane based system.
- 2. Since purified water is acidic , we add a very small amount of minerals, magnets and other energies back to the water, as well as pH balance, which is automatically done with our FOREVER HEALTHY LIVING DRINKING WATER SYSTEM.
Q: Are whole house systems (P.O.E. = Point-Of-Entry) better than counter-top filters P.O.U. (point-of-use)?
A: P.O.U. systems are by far the best way to ensure the highest quality drinking water.
Our P.O.E. FOREVER HEALTHY WHOLE HOUSE WATER Systems are very beneficial in that they provide filtered water to all baths and showers as well as other water appliances. By filtering all the water going into your home you improve not only the healthfulness of the water, but you greatly reduce chlorine, chloramine and other chemicals that vaporize and get into the indoor air. Whole House Systems will also extend the quality and life of your drinking water filters, plumbing, laundry machine, dishwasher…
Q: How do you know if there are contaminants in your water?
A: Virtually all public water systems contain some level of one or more unhealthful chemicals and unnecessary inorganic minerals. Regulations only require periodic testing of about approximately 100 chemicals.
There are now more than 144,000!! chemicals used in our society with an average of over 1,000 new chemicals being developed each year. Contaminant levels fluctuate throughout the year making it impossible to know the actual level of contamination in a central water system. Over 20,000 toxic chemicals have been detected in North American water systems. Standards for safe levels are only in place for a small percentage and not these chemicals. The risk is high and the cost for a sure solution is low.
One has to ask themself if spending $2,000 for something you drink everyday is reasonable to not only to prevent poisons entering your body, but improving your health.
You can get your water tested and see for yourself. A recommended test would costs hundreds of dollars.
Q: Do filter systems remove Radon?
A: Radon is a gas produced by decaying Uranium and is more often a problem when airborne, however some areas may have Radon in the water which can be effectively removed by most carbon filters. Medical grade purifiers remove radon. I would also recommend getting a radon gas test kit to test your home for radon gas you may be breathing. This is inexpensive kit can be found in most hardware stores.
Q: Is it good to use silver to prevent bacteria from growing inside the filter?
A: Silver is used in some systems to reduce bacteria growth, however, silver is a toxic metal that can leach into the filtered water. The type of bacteria (heterotrophic) that can colonize on carbon media, is a very slow growing bacteria and is typically only a problem with filters that are used for 18 months or longer without cartridge replacement.
NOTE: We always recommend a maximum of 18 months as a maximum to change your carbon block, sediment, de-ionization and most other filters. After 18 months these type of filters typically start to harbor bacteria. The exception is the reverse osmosis filter/membrane which can last on average 3-5 years.
Q: If my municipal water company Annual Water Quality Report shows that it meets all EPA guidelines, does that mean it is safe?
A: The Bottom line is… the only way to make sure you are consuming pure, fresh water is to make your own from your own quality filter system!
The only 2 things municipal waters guarantee they remove in North America, are e-coli and bacteria!
There is a report from the National Cancer Institute to the Surgeon General that stated that NO level of exposure to a chemical carcinogen should be considered toxicologically insignificant to humans.
I hope everyone makes the CHOICE to take control of their personal consumption by purifying their own water!
Q: What are some good web sites to find documentation on water problems?
A: NRDC.org (Natural Resources Defense Council), EWG.org (Environmental Working Group), EDF.org (Environmental Defense Fund), and CDC.gov (Center for Disease Control) are all good informational sites with numerous documented studies on water problems.
