WATER CONTAMINATION - Reverse Osmosis

WATER CONTAMINATION



The National Water Quality Inventory, the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) official survey, has identified sources of water contamination.






Public water supplies can be contaminated by three main sources (Click on the picture for details):

a Industrial processes
a Agricultural activities
a Landfill seepage

Many programs have been implemented to monitor drinking water in the United States such as the EPA's regulations on maximum contaminant levels (MCLs). This means that, by law, small amounts of these regulated pollutants are allowed in your drinking water and can still be considered safe.

Common Water Pollutants

YOU ARE WHAT YOU DRINK!
Your body is made up of mostly water. In fact, water makes up 75 to 85 percent of your cells. And the reason your thirst for water on a regular basis, perhaps even hourly basis is due to three main benefits your body receives from water:

Cohesion - Flexibility
Water creates internal cohesion for your body, giving your cells and organs the flexibility to be stretched and even strained within certain limits without rupturing or tearing. Every time you move, reach for something or stand up, water is helping to protect your organs from being torn in the process.

Temperature - Comfort
Water helps your body stabilize temperature and acclimate to temperature changes. Without sufficient water, the human body can undergo fatal overheating or cooling very quickly.

Solvency - Nutrition & Detoxification
Water also provides natural solvent properties, supporting the body in the great task of breaking down substances for use or disposal. Think of all the vitamins, minerals and nutrients flowing through your organs and into your extremities that allow you to function normally, as well as the detoxification your body carries out through the release of sweat, urine and other means. Without water, these processes would cease to function.
How the Body Uses Water

Function - Uses of Water
Digestion - Component of gastric juicese, pancreatic fluids and saliva; transport of nutrients through digestive tract; dissolving nutrients
Circulation - Transport of nutrients and waste products in the blood and lymphatic fluids
Absorption - Transport of nutrients into cells for utilization
Elimination - Dissolving waste products of cells; transport of waste out of the body through kidneys, intestines, skin and lungs
Temperature - Component of sweat to help the body maintain a constant temperature
Lubricant - Joints and colon lubricated by fluid
