Water, the life blood of the human being.  We have to have it to survive and it is the least thought about.  We take it for granted that it will always be there and in the meantime our rivers and streams are being polluted with all kinds of toxic chemicals that are destroying human health.  This is not just a topic that should be consider in times of disaster, but right now, for your everyday living.

The Government refuses to stop using the toxic chemical fluoride in our water supply, which does horrible damage to the body and mind.  See the following video:

Professional Perspectives: Fluoride in Tap Water

There are many more videos about fluoride on You Tube and many articles validating the damage that fluoride causes.  This is just one of many chemicals that are in our water and causing damage.  Why Americans are not up in arms about this problem is beyond me.  If you want to know what is happening to the air and water visit the Arizona Sky Watch site, their information will blow you away. click here for main page, click here for their independent lab reports and other water information.  Click here for articles, petitions and bills.  This page has a hive of information, that you really should read.

What I am saying to you, is you not only need to have a portable water filtering system that you can take with you if you need to make haste for the wilderness, but you also need to have some kind of system in your home that will filter your tap water.  A water softening systems helps somewhat to eliminate some of the toxins, which ones I don't know.  I just found this out myself when the water company came around asking for water samples for testing.  When I told them I had a water softener, they informed me that it destroyed the chemicals that they were testing for, so my samples weren't going to be useable. 

Barium is one of the chemicals that is being found in the water.  Barium is also being found in the Chemtrails that are being sprayed across America's skies.

Barium and Organ and Immune System Damage --

A proven suppressant of the human immune system, atmospheric barium weakens human muscles, including those of the heart.

Small amounts of water-soluble barium may cause a person to experience breathing difficulties, increased blood pressures, heart rhythm changes, stomach irritation, muscle weakness, changes in nerve reflexes, swelling of brains and liver, kidney and heart damage. Barium has also been shown to turn off the body’s T-cells, which are critical to body’s immune system. Read more about this and other harmful chemicals at Arizona Sky Watch.

There are several good systems that you can put in your home, some better than others, depending on how much money you have to spend.   The following are a few brands and their links:  I eliminated the ones that I found that do not filter out fluoride, but double check just to be sure, I may have missed some and some are vague, so you may have to email them.

• Aquasana

• AquaPure

• Brita

• Everpure

• Eco Water Systems

• GE Water Systems

• Kenmore Water Treatment Systems

• Multi-Pure Systems

(Remember that you are going to need a lot of water for restoration if you have stored dehydrated foods.  You want to make sure that you store filtered water for this purpose.)

The portable systems are hard to find, so far the best portable that I have found is the Berkey.  It has special filters that you can buy that filter out fluoride and you can take it with you if you need to head to the hills.  This and the fact that it filters out the fluoride is why I bought it.  Check it out http://www.berkeywater.com/start.main.html Click on the Image to go directly to the cart.

For generations, health-conscious people around the world have recognized that the foundation to a healthy life and healthy body is clean, fresh drinking water.

Unfortunately, securing your access to good tasting, sparkling, wholesome drinking water can be harder than you might expect.  Water is often laced with chlorine, lead, high levels of harmful bacteria, and other unwanted chemicals and contaminants.  Frequently these produce unpleasant tastes and odors.  Even bottled water can contain these same contaminants, and moreover it is very expensive.  Other filtration systems are inferior. Most do not remove pathogenic bacteria and many remove the beneficial minerals that your body needs.

How Berkey^® Natural Water Purifiers Operate

To use, water is poured into the upper chamber. Gravity draws this water through the exclusive purification elements where contaminates are captured on and within theses micro-porous elements and are separated from the water. The purified water then collects in the lower chamber where it can be drawn through the spigot. What’s more, Berkey^® elements are re-cleanable and can be used over and over again.
