Hard Water Scale – Answers and Solutions
In: Miscellaneous
28 Jun 2010
Hard water is not considered harmful to your health, but it can cause ugly stains from scale build up in sinks, tubs, and elsewhere if left unchecked. People notice the stains, but they are generally unaware of the significant hidden costs of the scale build until it is too late.
Scale is formed when minerals (usually calcium) are precipitated out of water. The scaling process accelerates dramatically when the temperature of the water increases or when water travels across the electrically charged plates in a water ionizer.
The hidden costs
The simple truth is that ionized or ”Kangen” water can help your body heal itself of many ailments that people face on a day to day basis. Your body is capable of working brilliantly, but it needs the right fuel mixture, just like any other machine. Abuse the machine, and the performance deteriorates rapidly and often permanently. Take care of the machine, and it will work tirelessly for a lifetime. The great news is that all water ionizers are effective in regards to helping your body heal itself.

My Version of “I Have A Dream”
18 Jun 2010
It is impossible to not be inspired by the immortal words of Dr. Martin Luther King. His passion and sense of what was right are irrefutable.
I’m just a regular guy, but I also have dreams. In fact, I have a number of dreams over my lifetime. First, I dreamed that someday I would be old enough to drive a car. As I moved out on my own, I dreamed about obtaining material possessions. Then I dreamed of finding a great woman to share my life with and raise a family. I have had my ups and downs and… Continue reading
As I continued to watch the unfolding horror in the Gulf of Mexico, it dawned on me that the repercussions of the disaster would be magnified ten thousand times if the problem had occurred in a major fresh water source such as the Great Lakes. While the effects of the events unfolding in the Gulf are horrendous, they would be a proverbial drop in the bucket compared the consequences if a similar oil spill in the Great Lakes.
Forty million people depend upon the water from the Great Lakes for drinking water, while nobody drinks… Continue reading
Water Ionizers: The Good News is Spreading
In: Water Ionizers

My Story: My wife introduced me to alkaline ionized water two years ago after attending a MLM meeting, and the rest is history: full recovery from long term acid reflux problems and crippling arthritis, complete elimination of ragweed allergy symptoms, and zero colds for two years for any of the five members of our family who live in our home.
I retired last year as President of one of the leading suppliers of water ionizers so that I could start this blog to help spread the word about the benefits of ionized water. I also wanted to provide an unbiased source of information about the water… Continue reading

Why are you still drinking bottled water? Part 3 – Environmental Issues
In: Bottled Water
9 Jun 2010
If you are upset by the oil spill caused by BP in the Gulf of Mexico, you may not want to read this.
An advocacy group called Corporate Accountability International estimates that 17 million barrels of oil were required last year to make the water bottles that were produced for drinking water in the United States.
Let’s put those 17 million barrels of oil in perspective by comparing it to the ”environmental disaster” that is taking place in the Gulf of Mexico. While the estimates of the size of the spill seem to… Continue reading
It is amazing how many people will choose lower prices over healthy foods and drinks. Fortunately, when it comes to drinking water, tap water is usually better for your health than bottled water. Now how often does that happen?
It is generally accepted that people should drink about half a gallon (64 ounces) or 2 litres of water per day. If you drink bottled water, you will be surprised how much the cost of the water adds up to in a year. If you drink bottled water purchased while “on the go” from vending… Continue reading
More than half of Americans drink bottled water, and more than one third of Americans drink bottled water on a regular basis. Is that a good thing? Yes and no. Drinking water is definitely better than drinking a soda, but you are probably not drinking the “pure” and healthy water that you think you are.
There are three significant reasons not to drink bottled water which include: health issues, the high cost of bottled water, and the environmental cost of bottled water. Covering all three issues in one article… Continue reading
