| Think your Drinking Water is Safe?
Maybe after reviewing the info below you will be wary, very wary! Blue drop water does not remove the drugs that enter the river system from sewage (Grey Water) that people take every day like ARVs and anti-depressants, and other dangerous habit forming drugs Check out Documentary on ENCA (They found traces of 34 drugs and pesticides, including ARVs and anti-depressants ) |

| Green Drop Status - How They Treat your Sewage Effluent or Greywater | ||
| It gets more scary when you examine the
Green Drop
Report. Green Drop relates to the treatment of sewage before the
"cleaned" water get put back into the rivers that we get our "Blue
Drop" water from. Consider all the pharmaceutical drugs and hormones that
don't get cleaned out of the sewage water and does not get cleaned
out of the Blue drop water. We possibly have the best water in Gauteng but what about the rest

| See this article Entitled "Hennops River in Crisis" which appeared on the 21 June 2013 edition of the Centurion Record about a Centurion sewage treatment plant that was designed to accept 46million liters of sewage per day and now receives 76 million liters per day and the overflow goes into the Hennops River.

Acid Mine Drainage |
||
| If this is not bad enough we have a very serious problem on the reef in Gauteng and that is Acid Mine Drainage. This further contaminates the source of water that has to be purified for drinking. The water treatment systems were not designed to remove all the heavy metals and radioactive uranium in the water so we get it to drink. Have pity on those who live in the North West. | ||
| Municipalities are Failing us so What can you do for protection? | ||
| Someone has to filter the water coming out
of your tap. In some municipalities the tap water is so
contaminated it will kill you.
You can continue to be the filter and use your body's kidneys to do the job with resultant damage over time leading to cancer and other diseases. Ever wondered why you now know someone who has or has beaten cancer? 30 years back it was not like this! A documentary on the newest latest water treatment system in Canada (less than 10 years old) they admitted that it cannot remove drug contaminents - it was not designed to do so since that problem was not as prolific as it is today. They are in the process of building a plant to treat the cleaned water to remove the drugs. This I don't think is even considered in South Africa.
Straight carbon filters essentially just clean the fine particles out the water Reverse Osmosis takes all nutrients out of the water leaving what is essentially distilled water behind. Don't believe that? Just check the properties of any reverse osmosis prepared water on sale in the shops. That really is not good for human consumption. See World Health Organization Report on the effects of drinking water with near zero minerals on the body over time Ideally you need a filter that will remove all the bad stuff and leave the good minerals like calcium and magnesium and fluoride. It also needs to remove all the drugs and hormones, chlorine (Can trigger cancer over time) and kill all the bacteria and viruses making the water healthy taste sweet instead of bitter as a result of the chemicals in the water. There is one water purifier that stands out above the rest. Maybe it's time you took a closer look at E-Spring it is possibly the best water filter in the world. If your health and that of your family is important to you you need to look over this one carefully. The filter at end of life at 5000l still complies with the highest NCF standards.
