Your body is about 60% water—it’s essential for almost every function.

° Water helps transport nutrients and oxygen to your cells.

° It regulates body temperature through sweating and breathing.

Basic or Acidic?

Basic or Acidic?

Every aqueous type of liquid has a pH!

Coca-cola, water, sprite, milk.

  • pH measures the acidity or alkalinity of a liquid, on a scale from 0 (very acidic) to 14 (very alkaline), with 7 being neutral.
  • Acidic liquids have a pH less than 7, like Coca-Cola and Sprite, which are around 2.5 to 3.5.

Neutral liquids have a pH of 7, like pure water.

Total Dissolved Solid (TDS)

Total Dissolved Solid (TDS)

These minerals can include everything from iron to calcium — basically, the stuff our bodies need to stay healthy.

  • To measure this, people use a TDS meter. Here’s a simple way to understand the readings:

0–70 ppm: Water is close to distilled — very pure.

70–150 ppm: Water is safe and drinkable.

Above 150 ppm: Water is still drinkable but tends to be harsher and may contain unwanted contaminants — not ideal for our bodies.

FOREVER CHEMICALS - BEWARE!

We never know the full way how plastic water bottles got into the supermarket or store

  • I've occasionally seen cases of water laid outside in the SUN or in the HEAT.

‣ Can leach into water or drinks from plastic bottles or pipes.

‣ Linked to hormone disruption and health risks with long-term exposure.

PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances)

‣ A group of man-made chemicals used in non-stick cookware, firefighting foam, waterproof fabrics, and more.

‣ Can contaminate water supplies, linked to cancer, immune issues, and other health problems.

Author Note

‣ Don't stop at just water, check out the food's we put in our systems, the type of vitamins, the mental energy we focus on.

‣ We cannot control everything, but we can do our best. Focus on improving every day, even if it is 1%!

Take care and God bless!
