Nitrates in Tap Water & Prostate Cancer: Breaking News

Posted by: Rhona Reid On April 14, 2023 2:00 pm

Scientists have identified a link between waterborne nitrate and the risk of developing prostate cancer, according to research published in recent days.  

The findings, led by the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), indicate that nitrate consumed in tap water over an average adult life can be linked to patients developing prostate cancer, and should be considered a risk factor. The research goes further, suggesting that the results are even more marked in cases of ‘aggressive tumors,’ and prostate cancer in younger men.

Customized Hydration: Tyent Water, Your Way!

Posted by: Rhona Reid On April 7, 2023 2:00 pm

Customized hydration.  Bespoke. Made to measure. Tailored to fit. Whichever one you choose; the meaning is the same – a customized product or service that has you and your individual preferences at the heart of it.  

 

Customized Hydration Tyent Water, Your Way

 

Treating Customers as Individuals 

That philosophy is something our engineers pay close attention to when designing every Tyent Water Ionizer. For example, take Kangen water ionizers, made by a company called Enagic. The average Kangen water ionizer is all about one size fits all. One filter, and no preset options to make life that little bit easier.  

The Tyent approach is different. We know that our customers are individuals. The contaminants in your source water might be different from your friend in …

Millions of people aren’t drinking enough water.  According to a recent CivicScience poll, around 47% of adults in the US regularly drink less than three 16-oz servings of water every day. A slightly smaller percentage of adults – almost 40% – said that they drank “between four to seven glasses” of water per day. Only 13% of respondents hit the recommended amount of water for a healthy adult, drinking eight 16-oz glasses of water each day.

Philadelphia Chemical Spill: What Would You Do in a Water Emergency?

Posted by: Rhona Reid On March 31, 2023 6:40 pm

On March 24, a leak at the Trinseo Altuglas chemical facility in Bristol Township, Philadelphia caused up to 120,000 liters of latex emulsion to spill into the Delaware River. 

Concerned residents were told to continue to use tap water for the days immediately following the incident. The reason for this is the contaminated river water would take time to reach and enter the water treatment plant, and from there, the taps of local homes and businesses.

Are There Forever Chemicals in Your Glass of Juice?

Posted by: Rhona Reid On March 17, 2023 11:37 am

Coca-Cola and Simply Tropical fruit juice have been hit with a class action lawsuit after the “simply natural” drink was found to contain levels of PFAS – “Forever Chemicals” – that exceed ‘safe’ limits hundreds of times over.

Incidentally, even mentioning ‘safe limits’ of PFAS – the collective name for around 12,000 chemicals linked to a number of serious health issues – is a contradiction of terms, after the EPA announced last year that no amount of PFAS is safe.
