  You need...to remove more contaminants 

  Image Source

  Hey, there water drinker! There is more you can do! The good news? There is room for quick improvement.Here are 3 quick ways you can upgrade your hydration and water quality!1) Replace your filter! Your refrigerator or Brita filter is typically made of activated carbon charcoal. FYI: charcoal is the #1 water filter media in the world. Carbon and activated carbon effectiveness unfortunately vary significantly. Some are certified only to reduce chlorine and improve taste and odor which is typical of Brita brand filters and refrigeration filters. Activated carbon does NOT remove common inorganic pollutants such as chloramines, arsenic, fluoride, hexavalent chromium, nitrate, and perchlorate which brings us to our next recommendation:)2) Get a unit for the house that can take care of all your water needs! Given your current hydration and health status, you have MANY options for the home that could meet your needs. We recommend reducing contaminants and keeping/replacing source minerals. Here are 3 home options that range in functionality and price:a) Kangen Ionizer, a certified medical device in Japan with customized pre-filtersb) Reverse Osmosis installed underneath the sink with faucet includedc) a Reverse Osmosis filter for the countertop3) Consider a whole-house filter! If you own your home or plan to stay in your rental home for years to come, you may want to consider whole-house filtration. At roughly $12-20/mo, you can cook, clean, bathe, and drink filtered water from every tap in your home. The filter removes or reduces 81 contaminants AND it keeps essential minerals for the body such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. It’s a convenient no-brainer. The filter is replaced once every 5-7 years.Click here for more benefits of whole-home filtration.4) Hydration Tips-Bonus!It's not just what water you drink but HOW you drink it. Behavior plays a big part. Here are some hydration tips:Aim to drink .5 your body weight in ounces in water (Teas, Coffee, Kombucha, Sports Drinks don't count. *Remember 85% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.Ingest 12oz-16oz of water at a time between meals. Don't sip and measure your daily consumption.Avoid drinking lots of water at meal time. **It disrupts the digestion process, this is where you can sip;)Avoid plastics by making your water at home! **There are up to 2500 plastic particles in (1) 8oz plastic water bottle, and if that's not enough, I have 4 words for you:) Great Pacific Garbage Patch.Retain source minerals or consider adding trace minerals to your water. ***Without these minerals your body pulls these from your bones, joints, teeth, etc.Consider adding more iceberg lettuce, non-starchy veggies, citrus fruits to your diet and 1 tsp chia seeds to your water. ****They have up to 90% of the 4th phase of water.

  You need... more convenience

  My mom and I operate a water shop in North County San Diego and found convenience isn't always people's #1 value. Sometimes, getting out of the house, running errands, and connecting with others during the day is placed at a higher value than convenience. So by all means, take our recommendations below with a grain of salt. Always consider what is best for you and your family Here Are 3 ways to create excellent water at home! No more lugging jugs of water!1) Get a unit for the house that can take care of all your water needs!

Did you know you can drink water filled with antioxidants? It sounds too good to be true but H2 or Molecular Hydrogen IS the perfect antioxidant and is used in medical facilities around the world. It has no side effects and can do so much to reduce oxidation on your cells. The results are more cell hydration and efficiency. The healthier your cells, the healthier your organs, and the healthier your body! Keep chronic disease states at bay with H2!a) Molecular Hydrogen tablets. (We don't use these for many reasons that is discussed in our online videos but they're an option;)b) Kangen Ionizer produces Hydrogen-Rich Water (HRW) at 1ppm. The Kangen Ionizer creates alkaline water and negative electrons (-e) that neutralize even the most difficult of free radicals.

  You need...to remember the importance of minerals and your skin is the largest organ in the body

  Image Source

  Sweet! You are reducing/removing contaminants from your water-great job! Now you may want to consider optimizing your water for health and hydration!Reverse Osmosis water is void of minerals and therefore void of an electrical charge. Your cells need to reduce oxidation from free radicals and be charged to function properly. Here are 3 recommendations to get more healthy and hydrated!1) Add Minerals! Another word for these is electrolytes. Everyone, not just athletes, needs them.a) According to Dr. Cohen and Gina Bria add a pinch of Himalayan or sea salt to your water, apple cider vinegar, or lemon. Check out videos on our YouTube channel for recipes.b) Add Trace Minerals (I love Thrive Market, so I'm sending you to their page to get them to put you can order them through multiple vendors or find a brand you like at your local grocery store. c) Check out the brand Quinton2) Keep Source Minerals! My mom and I regularly recommend for people to remove their RO unit and install a 3-stage filter along with a Kangen Ionizer. The filters are customized to your local municipality or personal needs and they retain source minerals such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium so your body doesn't have to pull these minerals from your bones, teeth, joints, etc. If you don't want to remove your RO machine, consider adding a Remineralizing Filter and a water pump to have your RO function with a Kangen unit.a) Pre-Filter Recommendationsb) Kangen Ionizer3) Consider a whole-house filter! Whatever touches our skin can be absorbed in the body. If you own your home or plan to stay in your rental home for years to come, you may want to consider whole-house filtration. At roughly $12-20/mo, you can drink, clean, bathe, wash filtered water that has 81 containments removed or reduced AND it keeps source minerals such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. It’s a convenient no-brainer. The filter is replaced once every 5-7 years.Click here for more benefits of whole-home filtration.4) Hydration Tips-Bonus!It's not just what water you drink but HOW you drink it.

  You need . . .to think about filtration

  Image Source

  I'm all about structuring your water (aka: giving it a charge) but consider filtering your water first.Here are 3 ways to filter your water!1) Pick up water from a trusted source! Some of our water members use glass containers with the flower of life pattern. Some even have positive words or phrases placed on the bottle inspired by Dr. Emoto's work. Purified water is great for removing contaminants but it is void of necessary minerals the body needs for health and hydration. Make sure to remineralize your water so it has a charge. Dead water (aka: Reverse Osmosis, Purified and Distilled are typically void of minerals and therefore void of an electrical charge.)2) Consider a whole-house filter! If you own your home or plan to stay in your rental home for years to come, you may want to consider whole-house filtration. At roughly $12-20/mo, you can drink, clean, bathe, wash filtered water that has 81 containments removed or reduced AND it keeps source minerals such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium.

  You need . . .to think about filter quality, your skin and your home enviroment

  Hey, water drinker! You are in our camp:) We think good filtration and this Japanese-made and approved medical device is the best thing since sliced bread. Not only do we get alkaline water but powerful Hydrogen-Rich Water on demand. We believe taking care of our bodies and our environment is a win-win for everyone!Over the years as Kangen Distributors and Water Shop operators, we know there is always room for improvement. Take a look at some of our lessons to optimize your Kangen water experience.Here are 4 ways to maximize your Kangen Water Ionizer!1) Pre-Filteration! If you didn't purchase your Kangen unit from us, we always encourage pre-filtration. Why? Kangen units are distributed worldwide and include an activated carbon charcoal filter. It is excellent for removing chlorine and improving smell and taste but it doesn't remove much else. Here is the 3-stage pre-filtration we recommend:a) Pre-Filter RecommendationsThe filters are customized to your local municipality or personal needs and they retain source minerals such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium so your body doesn't have to pull these minerals from your bones, teeth, joints, etc. Replace your pre-filters every year.*** If you rent and cannot install pre-filters we have one we recommend to attach to the back of your machine. Contact us for more information.2) Consider a whole-house filter! If you own your home or plan to stay in your rental home for years to come, you may want to consider whole-house filtration. At roughly $12-20/mo, you can drink, clean, bathe, wash filtered water that has 81 containments removed or reduced AND it keeps source minerals such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. It’s a convenient no-brainer. The filter is replaced once every 5-7 years.Click here for more benefits of whole-home filtration.3) Use your 2.5ph disinfectant water and 6.0 beauty water! We get it. A lot of our clients purchase their unit just for the drinking water but you are missing out on a huge benefit! Reduce all of your cleaning and beauty supplies and make your home go green!2.5ph is both non-toxic and chemical-free!Order more saline solution from the Enagic Store!4) Clean your machine monthly! My mom has had her machine for 10 years and she plans to have it for life! Make sure to continue to test the pH using the drops included in your machine purchase and clean your machine monthly with the citric acid packets. Order more food-grade citric acid from the Enagic Store! or order it in bulk from an online source.5) Hydration Tips-Bonus!It's not just what water you drink but HOW you drink it. Behavior plays a big part. Here are some hydration tips:Aim to drink .5 your body weight in ounces in water (Teas, Coffee, Kombucha, Sports Drinks don't count. *Remember 85% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.Ingest 12oz-16oz of water at a time between meals. Don't sip and measure your daily consumption.Avoid drinking lots of water at mealtime. **It disrupts the digestion process, this is where you can sip;)Avoid plastics by making your water at home! **There are up to 2500 plastic particles in (1) 8oz plastic water bottle, and if that's not enough, I have 4 words for you:) Great Pacific Garbage Patch.Retain source minerals or consider adding trace minerals to your water. ***Without these minerals your body pulls these from your bones, joints, teeth, etc.Consider adding more iceberg lettuce, non-starchy veggies, citrus fruits to your diet and 1 tsp chia seeds to your water. ****They have up to 90% of the 4th phase of water. Super hydrating!Add micro-body movements to your day. It doesn't have to be much but break up the sedentary habits for overall better hydration. And who am I to tell you about water? Funny you should ask...Namaste🙏My name is Taylor Colvey, and I am a Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach. I work alongside two lovely ladies: my mom, Robin, a Health Advocate, Organic Gardner, and owner of Lifetime Water; and Ariane Paris, Water Quality Expert, and owner of Ethical H20.Our focus is to help people drink the best water available, improve their health, and reduce or completely eliminate environmental toxins.

  You need . . .to consider optimizing your drinking water

  Hey, there water drinker! You are halfway there! It's awesome you are not only reducing the water contaminants in your drinking water but you understand that our skin is the biggest organ, absorbing what it touches. We believe there is more you can do! The good news? There is room for quick improvement.Here are ways you can upgrade your hydration and health!1) Get a drinking system for the house that can take care of all your water needs! Given your current hydration and health status, you have MANY options for the home that could meet your needs. Here are 2 home options that range in functionality and price:a) Kangen Ionizer is a certified medical device in Japan and pairs great with whole-house filtration and offer 7 waters to help your home "go green."b) Reverse Osmosis installed underneath the sink with an included faucet2) Make your water Hydrogen-Rich or Vortex it! After you remove/reduce the contaminants you may want to consider optimizing your water for your health. Did you know you can drink water filled with antioxidants or restructure your water? It sounds too good to be true but H2 or Molecular Hydrogen IS the perfect antioxidant and is used in medical facilities around the world. It has no side effects and can reduce oxidation on your cells. This result is more cell hydration and efficiency. The healthier your cells the healthier your organs and the healthier your body! Keep chronic disease states at bay with H2!a) Molecular Hydrogen tablets. (We don't use these for many reasons that I discuss in my water course but they're an option;)b) Kangen Ionizer produces Hydrogen-Rich Water (HRW) at 1ppm. The Kangen Ionizer creates alkaline water and negative electrons (-e) that neutralize even the most difficult of free radicals. The alkalinity increases absorption and HRW is created on-demand from your kitchen faucet!c) Vortex it? We prefer HRW but hey there are some cool products from some reputable sources. Check these out: d) Dr. Cohen and Gina Bria recommended the products linked here.e) Filter and vortex your shower for ~$140f) Use a wand?3) Hydration Tips-Bonus!It's not just what water you drink but HOW you drink it. Behavior plays a big part. Here are some hydration tips:Aim to drink .5 your body weight in ounces in water (Teas, Coffee, Kombucha, Sports Drinks don't count. *Remember 85% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.Ingest 12oz-16oz of water at a time between meals.

  You need...more convenience?

  My mom and I operate a water shop in North County San Diego and found convenience isn't always people's #1 value. Money, practicality, and values all play a part. Berkey's do a great job at removing some contaminants but they lag on the harder chemicals, flow rates, and are a miss on Hydrogen-Rich and structured water for health. So our recommendations below are dependent on your current health needs and water values. Always consider what is best for you and your family.Here are 3 ways to create excellent water at home! No more re-filling!1) Get a unit for the house that can take care of all your water needs!

  You need . . .to eliminate the plastic.

  Image Source

  Hey, there water drinker! There is more you can do! The good news? There is room for quick improvement.Here are 3 quick ways you can upgrade your hydration and water quality!1) Eliminate the plastic! Plastic bottled water is typically purified tap water. In fact, the brand Dasani owned by Coca-Cola is banned in the U.K for selling not only purified tap water but contaminated tap water! The flimsy plastic is not temperature controlled and is heated and cooled multiple times a day before it gets to your refrigerator and because water is a solvent it leaches the plastic into the bottle. In fact, there are up to 2,500 plastic particles in (1) 8oz bottle of water. (Li, 2019). Lastly, I have 4 words for you: Great Pacific Garbage Patch.2) Get a unit for the house that can take care of all your water needs! Given your current hydration and health status, you have MANY options for the home that could meet your needs. We recommend reducing contaminants and keeping/replacing source minerals. Here are 3 home options that range in functionality and price:a) Kangen Ionizer, a certified medical device in Japan with customized pre-filtersb) Reverse Osmosis installed underneath the sink with faucet includedc) a Reverse Osmosis filter for the countertop3) Consider a whole-house filter! If you own your home or plan to stay in your rental home for years to come, you may want to consider whole-house filtration. At roughly $12-20/mo, you can cook, clean, bathe, and drink filtered water from every tap in your home. The filter removes or reduces 81 contaminants AND it keeps essential minerals for the body such as sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. It’s a convenient no-brainer.
