Based on the seven keys to holistic health explained in my book, ?Forget The Cures, Find The Cause,? the easiest health tip to start with is water.
Most of us know our drinking water, be it from the city or from a well, is full of heavy metals and more than 700 carcinogenic or dangerous chemicals. Bottled water from the grocery store is safer to drink, but still contains chlorine by-products which are proven to be more dangerous than deadly chlorine.
Distilled water is essentially "dead" water and reverse osmosis not only wastes water, but doesn?t allow for natural mineral balance that our bodies need. Filter the water the way the Earth does, in stages and slowly. Counter-top pitchers won?t work as the carbon used in them is not sufficient. And think about your other taps in your home, such as the shower and bath.
We absorb more chemicals through our largest organ, the skin, than we can through drinking water. Imagine the chemicals entering your body through a month of daily showers being more dangerous than drinking eight 8 oz. glasses of water a day. Find the companies that use centaur carbon, KDF filtering, and kinetic cells and spend the money. Your entire home needs healthy water to help your body to heal itself.
