How water filter can help you Detox efficiently?

Over the years, detoxifying the body has become a very important regime for staying healthy. Detoxifying has numerous health benefits. However, there is a long list of all the different ideas, types and hypes of detoxification. Many of them are just over rated while the majors are often not considered. 

A detox where you starve and drink liters of fluid for a short-term, is not always the best nor a great idea. The awareness of increasing chemicals and toxins in the air we breathe, the soil our food is grown in, or the water we drink is reality and unfortunately, there is no escaping from it. 

Here’s a look at different means of detoxification

1) Eat right: Adding foods that naturally detox in your everyday diet can be extremely beneficial. These should be in addition to a whole, real foods diet. They are also very easy to digest and full of nutrients, which is an added bonus in the detox process. Fruits like oranges, lemons, and limes aid the body in flushing out toxins and jump starting the digestive tract with enzymatic processes. Lemon juice aids the liver in its cleansing processes. Try starting each morning with a warm glass of lemon water. Green plants will help give a chlorophyll-boost to your digestive tract and are very cleansing to your system. Other foods like: Onions, carrots, artichokes, asparagus, broccoli, cabbage, kale, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, beet, turmeric, and oregano are great to help cleanse the body. These are high in naturally occurring sulphur and glutathione. Sulphur helps the liver detoxify harmful chemicals. It’s important to add raw veggies to your diet, as the digestive enzymes are very beneficial in the natural detox process.

2) Exercise: Not only does exercise make you feel better, but also it’s an easy way to help your body in its natural detoxification process. Exercise promotes the detoxification process giving all systems of the body a boost. As you exercise, the blood circulates throughout the body, bringing nutrients to all the organs and muscles. As you do aerobic exercise you build up a sweat and toxins are released through the pores of the skin. It’s important to rinse off after heavy sweating to help rid the body of those toxins.

3) Drink water: Drinking water will ensure that toxins and waste from the body are flushed out and that it transports nutrients to where they are needed. Our kidney system is unique in its filtering capabilities and totally dependent upon water in order for it to work. The kidneys remove waste products from the blood, eliminate toxic substances in the urine, and receive water-soluble toxins from the liver for processing. They filter voluminous amounts of blood each day and in doing so maintain the body’s water balance and excrete toxins and excess fluid through the bladder. Daily fluid intake is essential for our bodies to function efficiently. However, we must ensure that we consume clean water for effective results. Traditional methods of water purification like boiling and cloth filtration do not effectively eliminate contaminants. Drink water that has been purified by a water filter for best results.

The Most Effective Method of Obtaining Clean Water

We are living in the age of industrialization and development. Everywhere you look, you can find traces of pollutants and their source as well. The sight of towering chimneys spewing black and contaminant laced smoke is sight that we all are familiar with, isn’t it? All these methods of water purification are capable of removing contaminants from water. However, some advanced water purifiers, like Kent’s Mineral RO prefer using a combination of RO+UV+UF+TDS control to provide clean drinking water.

Apart from spewing smoke into the atmosphere, many of these industries are conclusively interconnected to our water system. Many chemical factories need to discharge waste. This waste often ends up in our rivers or lakes. Laws of the country have not been enough to deter these companies from doing so.

Farming may seem safe, however, we often fail to notice that the fertilizers and pesticides that is used during farming consists of harmful chemicals. These chemicals seep through the ground and contaminate the ground water sources.

The above-mentioned reasons are enough to encourage one to drink purified water. There are two different ways of obtaining clean drinking water. Here’s a look at them.

1) Bottled water: Many people searching an alternative to the contaminated tap water find solace in bottled water. However, studies suggest that bottled water may not be as safe as it is often perceived to be. In fact, the majority of evidence shows that it’s worse for your health than tap water. The issue with plastic is that it leaches toxins into the water it is holding, a fact that has been linked to different types of cancer. It is also noted that many water-bottling companies merely sell tap water in the name of purified mineral water.

2) Water purifiers: The best way to obtain clean drinking water is by installing a water purifier. Water purifiers are devices that use a purification technology to eliminate contaminants in water. These life saving devices can use either of the below mentioned purification technologies.

1) Reverse Osmosis technology (RO)
2) Ultra Violet technology (UV)
3) Gravity based UF technology

All these methods of water purification are capable of removing contaminants from water. However, some advanced water purifiers, like Kent’s Mineral RO prefer using a combination of RO+UV+UF+TDS control to provide clean drinking water. This unique combination also ensures that minerals that essential to our body are not lost.

Kent RO Systems Limited is a 21st century healthcare products company with a vision to make the world a healthy and a happy place. Pioneers in bringing the revolutionary Reverse Osmosis (RO) technology to India, KENT started its operations from Noida, India in 1999.

Today, the group is recognized worldwide as a company that produces some of the best water purifiers in India.

How to purify water - The Complete Guide

The last decade or so has seen a sharp decline in the drinking water quality. Water purifiers too have gained tremendous interests in the same period. This has resulted in an increase in the interest around water purifiers. The water that we get today, from the municipal bodies, is often laced with alarming levels of dangerous dissolved impurities like rust, salts, heavy metals, chemicals, etc.

Amidst the deteriorating water quality situation, water purifiers have come as a gush of fresh air. There are many water purification technologies available today.  However, most of the water purification technologies eliminate only a few contaminants.

Contaminants present in water can be classified into two categories -

1) Suspended Impurities: These are insoluble impurities which contaminate water. Example - mud, dust, sand, dead insects, rust, mercury, lead, copper, cadmium, etc.

2) Dissolved impurities/ Contaminants: These are soluble particle such as pesticides, chemicals, bacteria, viruses, etc.

Water purification is not a new concept. This process has been going on from a long time. However, with time the traditional water purification methods have become ineffective against many new pollutants.

Listed below are some of the methods used for water purification -

1) Boiling: Boiling drinking water with fuel is the oldest and most commonly practiced household water treatment method. Despite boiling being a laborious that uses up a lot of energy, many organizations recommend it- both, for water treatment in developing countries as well as to provide safe drinking water during an emergency. Boiling only eliminates pathogens and does not remove suspended or chemical pollutants (e.g. arsenic) from drinking water.

2) Cloth filtration: This medieval method of water purification employs a cloth with tiny pores, through which water is passed. The tiny pores prevent suspended impurities from passing through thus providing clean water. However, this method is not effective against dissolved impurities and pathogens.

3) UV water purification technology: A UV-based water purifier is effective against bacteria and viruses but becomes null against impurities like pesticides, rust, heavy metals, salts and harmful chemicals.

4) Kent’s Mineral RO water purification technology: The Mineral RO technology combines the best of both RO & UV technologies, while eliminating the limitations of a single technology. Mineral RO technology offers double purification of RO and UV along with UF — which together remove even the most harmful dissolved impurities including arsenic, fluorides, rust, chemicals, pesticides and other heavy metals. The technology also features a unique TDS Controller that helps retain the essential natural minerals in the purified water. It is one of the best water filters in India.

What are waterborne diseases?

Waterborne diseases affect the most number of people. Waterborne diseases are mostly due to inadequate and incompetent management of water resources.

Water gets polluted at the source because of various reasons. The main reason of contamination of water is the inflow of sewage in the source. Diarrhea, Cholera, Malaria, Filariasis and Japanese encephalitis are 5 most harmful water related diseases in India. The availability of fresh and good quality drinking water to all Indians remains a concern.

What are different Methods of getting pure water other than boiling?

There are different types of water purifiers available in the market. The most popular ones using are UV and RO technology. The UV purification method uses short-wavelength ultraviolet radiation to kill micro-organisms present in water while RO or Reverse Osmosis method uses a semi-permeable membrane and pressure to purify water.

When exposed to sunlight, germs are killed and bacteria and fungi are prevented from spreading. This natural disinfection process is utilized most effectively by applying UV radiation in a controlled way.
