Adam and Eve Didn't Have Water Filters

The water in the Garden of Eden was perfect, clean, and utterly refreshing. They could go to any river, lake, or body of water and drink. They didn't have to worry about iron, bacteria, parasites, and dirt. You get the picture. They could drink plain old water and not worry. Fast forward thousands of years and we have a world where water filters are a necessary component of most homes. Unless people want to spend hundreds of dollars a year for bottled water, a water purification system is essential.

How many of us ever thought we would see a drink machine with bottled water that costs a dollar. Yes, water for a dollar. I remember when a Coke was a nickel and you could buy a large Coke and a bag of popcorn for only a quarter. Yes, that dates me, but who cares? If you still drink plain old drinking water from the faucet, you are in the minority. If you do drink your water from the kitchen faucet, could you fill your glass from the bathroom faucet? I bet you can't. I know that sounds icky to me. Same water, different association. Still we have become a squeamish people. Notice I didn't say health conscious.

Plenty of people who have state of the art water filters still smoke, but I guess one health change is better than none. Many people buy the Brita water filters because they are affordable and reasonably effective. The Brita water filters hook on the existing faucet and purify the water. You have to change the water filter every so often and don't have to worry because the filter will tell you when it's time for a change.

Some people go all the way with their water filter systems. They purchase whole house water filters so that no matter where they are in their homes, they will have healthy pure water. If you can't afford the whole house water filter, you might buy a drinking water filter system, a whirlpool water system, and a shower water filter. These portable water filters can offer you the same protection as a whole house water filter system with a lower price. The portable water filters can be installed without having a plumber coming to the house. That, of course, is a huge money saver.

Water purification has become a concern all over the world. On a recent cruise, we were told not to drink the water unless it was bottled. I worry that some day people will be told the same information here in the United States. Air and water pollution are a fact of life in today's world. If you are not sure whether or not you need to buy a water filter system, pour a glass of water and leave it on the counter for a few days. You will be surprised at what you find. You might also ask to have your drinking water tested so that you will know what problems your water might have.

If you live out in the country and use well water, you certainly want to have your water tested. If the water is deemed ok for consumption, you still might want to purchase a well water filter just to be cautious. Drinking water is vital to our health and well being. Therefore, buying some type of water filter is a must have and not a luxury. Your health depends on your choices. Make the right one. Buy a water filter.
