On-The-Go Hydration…Being Environmentally Responsible for Our Planet

My passion since starting my adventure in the water treatment industry has always been to get people out of what I call “The Bottled Water Syndrome”. If you think about it, millions of consumers today have this syndrome, kind of like a bad habit or obsession! With that said, many today do not know we have great alternatives out there. The bottled water industry is a multi-billion dollar giant just because we aren’t educated, and it is way too convenient…we are a convenient, instantaneous society…wanting things at our fingertips…wanting things immediately…needing instant gratification.

Tons and tons of plastic bottles today litter our waterways and landfills, contaminating and killing huge numbers of fish and other animals. This is not including the cost of producing these bottles – the millions of barrels of petroleum used and the transportation of these bottles…pollution abounds in every area. And the quality of bottled water has come under fire in the last few years for its quality and is not regulated for its purity.

Now comes a personal portable water filtration device that gets you that instant hydration, safe and healthy drinkable water without spending sometimes $5.00 per gallon to get it. These bottles or these other devices will give you that water at approximately $.30 per gallon. WOW! What a concept! And these products were developed nearly twenty years ago. It seems like a well-kept secret. I have personally been involved in distributing this company’s products for over five years, tested them, and found them to do what they say they do. Taking them to foreign countries and testing them against microbiological pathogens, I found these bottles to be an incredible asset for travel. I have scooped water from mountain streams and drank the water with confidence.

These portable water filtration products not only take out chlorine (like the latest one on the market and unfortunately the company with the multi-million dollar ad budget to reach the masses!), but these products can actually be very valuable companions in an emergency, disaster, travel to regions where the water is very contaminated, and for just about any outdoor activity where you would consume bottled water. Through a unique ionic adsorption micron filtering technology, these products remove up to 99.99% of contaminants in four areas – aesthetic, microbiological, chemical and dissolved solids. Using EPA protocols, the filters have been independently tested to NSF/ANSI standards 42 and 53.

My emergency water filtration bottle, EAqua, is an indispensable product for everyone’s emergency survival kit. The advanced filter will remove up to log6 virus from water, so you can imagine what kind of fresh water you can use to get clean, healthy drinking water…any disaster, backpacking where you cannot rely on the quality of water anymore, traveling to foreign countries where I have heard of serious pathogens are lurking in the water, and even some public drinking water fountains where aging equipment and old pipes make for non-potable water.

For those of you who need larger quantities of safe, drinking water for outdoor activities and camping, these products also come in a pump system and gravity feed bag system with the same filtering process. There’s even a filter that can be attached to a hydration pack, making it the first filtered hydration pack ever.

Enjoy the clean, healthy taste of filtered water “On-the-Go”! And do your part in being environmentally responsible for our planet! We can no longer take our water for granted, whether assuming it’s clean, or assuming we can waste it and pollute it with plastic bottles!
