Drink Spring Water To Support The Health Of Your Organs

Drinking enough water daily is likely the easiest thing you can do to support the health of your organs. Water makes up most of the body. It is very important to consume enough water daily to replenish the body’s used water.

Nature provides naturally mineralized and filtered water in the form of spring water. Spring water supports health and vitality over other sources of water because of these properties.

A wide array of minerals from the earth’s crust and rock mineralize spring water as the water travels through them. The flow of the water also naturally filters the water providing a natural ratio of minerals that supports organ health.

The ratio of minerals in spring water normally results in water that is slightly to highly alkaline. This is a benefit which also supports the alkalinity needed in the blood.

Water in of itself is essential for providing proper organ hydration. The natural mineral content of spring water is also important to help with water absorption and to support organ function.

Spring Water Recommended Over Artificial Alkaline Water

Alkalinity plays a natural and important role in the body, which has led producers to the develop ionized or artificial alkaline water.

Natural alkaline spring water is preferred over artificial alkaline water.  Water producers make artificial alkaline water by adding one or a few alkaline minerals.

Artificial alkaline water doesn’t contain the natural array of minerals of spring water and therefore can throw off the electrolyte balance in the blood.

Water producers use tap water as the source for ionized water. They then purify it and then add one or a few minerals to alkalize it.

Spring Water Recommended Over Tap Water

Municipal water agencies purposely treat their water with chemicals to kill harmful pathogens. Unfortunately these chemicals like sodium fluoride are also toxic to people.

Also other toxic chemicals inadvertently make their way into the municipal water supply.

Spring Water Recommended Over Distilled Water

Distilled water is pure H2O. Pure H2O doesn’t exist in nature in the rivers and streams, which naturally provide us with drinking water.

Nature provides minerals in water which buffers it, alkalizes it, and kills pathogens that collect in it. The body uses these minerals to help with proper water absorption and to help kill pathogens in the body.

The water picks up minerals and compounds, like calcium, potassium, magnesium, bicarbonate, and sodium, as it passes through rocks and soil.

The natural levels of sodium and other minerals in natural spring water helps the body absorb water from the intestines into the bloodstream.[1]

Distilled water might quench your thirst, and not adequately hydrate and protect the body.

Water and Dehydration

Many people don’t drink the daily recommended amount of water and end up either mildly or severely dehydrated.

Dehydration

Chronic dehydration results in the increased risk of increase urinary tract infections, fractures in the elderly, bladder cancer, colon cancer, kidney disease, heart disease, lung disorders, cataract formation, and decreased immune function.[2]

The U.S. Institute of Medicine recommended adult men consume 3.7 liters (approximately 1 gallon) of water throughout the day, and adult women consume 2.7 (approximately 3/4 gallon) of water throughout the day.

This recommendation is for total water consumed from food and water. Alternative medicine’s general recommendation is to drink 1 gallon of spring water a day.

Drinking one gallon of spring water throughout the day is safe for both men and women. Drink one gallon of spring water a day to properly hydrate the body. The body will remove the water it doesn’t need.

Can I Drink Too Much Water?

The real issue is not drinking too much water, and the issue is drinking too much water too quickly. Drinking a gallon of spring water throughout the day isn’t a cause for alarm.

Science determined chugging 6 liters or 1 1/2 gallons of water at once can result in death. The video below illustrates this point.

Some people pass on misinformation which can deter people from drinking the recommended amounts of water daily.

Flooding the body with 6 liters of water at once throws off the balance of water and sodium and can result in hyponatremia. The gradual addition of water throughout the day does not have this effect.

Bottling of Water

Most people don’t have access to their own spring and need to buy bottled water. We mostly buy water in glass or plastic bottles.

Glass would be the better bottling option because it is safer. Buying water bottled in plastic bottles is cheaper which leads many people to buy water in plastic bottles.

Plastic bottles came under fire because of BPA plastic which leeched estrogen chemicals into the water. Most water bottlers or producers don’t use BPA anymore and use the much safer PET plastic to bottle water.

Even though it is safer, glass appears to be the better option overall. Read more is this article: Are BPA-Free Water Bottles Safe?
