Posted by: Rhona Reid On April 5, 2023 2:48 pm

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.

Posted by: Rhona Reid On March 3, 2023 9:41 am

A healthy immune system is something we all want. We already know that eating plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables helps to support the immune system, but did you know that alkaline water from a water ionizer is a key way to really shore up your immune response?

This splits the water into two streams: alkaline and acidic. Alkaline water has a naturally …
