Clean water one of the most important components of holistic well-being, yet many of us unknowingly drink water that contains harmful contaminants, ranging from heavy metals and bacteria to chemicals like chlorine and fluoride. While water may appear clean, what's lurking in it can have profound effects on your health over time.
WHY WATER QUALITY MATTERS
Research shows that long-term exposure to contaminants in drinking water can contribute to a host of health issues, including gastrointestinal infections, developmental disorders, and even chronic conditions. A study by the Environmental Working Group found that nearly 80% of U.S. households' tap water contains detectable levels of carcinogenic chemicals like hexavalent chromium and arsenic.
Beyond contaminants, plastic bottles—often a quick fix for "clean" water—carry their own risks. These bottles can leach microplastics and harmful chemicals like BPA into the water, adding yet another layer of exposure. On top of that, plastic waste continues to pollute Mother Earth, with over 8 million tons of plastic ending up in oceans each year.
THE WATER MACHINE: A SOLUTION FOR CLEAN, SUSTAINABLE LIVING
This is where The Water Machine stands out. As the world's first all-glass, gravity-fed countertop water purifier, it addresses the challenges of both health and sustainability. With an elegant, eco-friendly design, it purifies your drinking water while eliminating the need for single-use plastics.
Here’s why it’s a game-changer:
- Uncompromising Purity: The Water Machine removes harmful bacteria, pathogens, heavy metals, chlorine, and fluoride, ensuring water that’s not only safe but refreshingly clean.
- Cost-Effective Sustainability: At less than 2 cents per gallon, the filters last up to 6,000 gallons, saving you thousands of dollars over their nearly 11-year lifespan.
- Eco-Friendly Design: Its all-glass construction avoids the plastic taste and waste common in other filtration systems.
WHY GRAVITY-FED PURIFICATION?
Unlike conventional filtration systems that rely on electric pumps or complex mechanisms, gravity-fed purifiers like The Water Machine are not only energy-efficient but also more effective at removing a broader spectrum of contaminants. Studies highlight that gravity filters using activated carbon, like those in The Water Machine, excel at reducing volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are common in treated municipal water.
MAKING WELLNESS SIMPLE AND ACCESSIBLE
In our pursuit of holistic well-being, clean water should be effortless, accessible, and aligned with our values of Earth stewardship. The Water Machine is our current choice for water filtration. We've added the chemical filters to the standard package, along with their cute little countertop stand and consume it with Celtic Sea Salt after structuring it in various way we can discuss in a future blog.
