BENEFITS OF WATER
Drinking water helps nearly every part of the human body function. Since our bodies are almost two-thirds water, understanding water's important role in the body can be a fountain of health. Being properly hydrated is one of the most effortless ways to ensure optimal functioning of all bodily activities.
“Drinking Chlorophyll Water means you’re going to be more hydrate. The more hydrated you are, the more energized you’ll feel…” – Shape Magazine
Drinking plenty of water can help keep your body healthy and functioning and its highest capacity.
How much water should we drink each day?
Our Chlorophyll Water team asked, Lynell Ross, Certified Health and Wellness Coach and Registered Nutritionist, how much water intake we should drink daily, “How much water a person should drink in a day depends on the person's weight, diet, level of daily exercise, environment, and a host of other factors. That said, the average person should drink 64 ounces of water per day, barring any heart conditions.”
Ross continues, “Water supports a number of physiological functions. Here are a few of the most important ones: transports nutrients; carries away waste, aids in better digestion; moistens eyes, mouth, and nose; hydrates skin and lessens wrinkles; ensures adequate blood volume; helps prevent heart attacks; forms main component of body fluids; participates in many chemical reactions; helps maintain normal body temperature; and acts as a lubricant around joints.”

OUR CHLOROPHYLL WATER
The water in our Chlorophyll Water is distilled and refined for purity and quality.
Our Chlorophyll Water is purified water that goes through a three-part purification process, which is tripled filtered (including carbon filtration), and then UV treatment.
"I’ve always loved chlorophyll for its supportive properties and its ability to help counteract the very toxic world we live in, helping me to stay alkaline. Right now I’m loving Chlorophyll Water because it’s a convenient way for me to grab and go, and I love that it has the added health benefits of purified water and vitamins.” - Holly Perkins, BS, CSCS , Women’s Strength Nation, Founder
“There are many potential benefits of incorporating Chlorophyll Water into your diet. These perks include speeding up the healing process, detoxifying the liver and inducing weight loss. Since chlorophyll is naturally part of most veggies, as it is a molecule found in all green plants, you’re likely getting adequate amounts of this molecule from your diet. However, as drinking Chlorophyll Water will increase your fluid intake, and it has a plethora of potential benefits, it’s favorable to include it in your routine in moderation.” - Bonnie Balk, RD, Maple Holistic, Founder & Registered Dietician
“Chlorophyll Water has become my go-to during and post-workout drink. The spearmint taste is refreshing after a hard sweat, the micro-nutrients are exactly what I need to replenish the loss of electrolytes and the B-vitamins give me a little kick to keep pushing through.” -David Mykel, Cliffhanger Academy, Founder & Head Coach
What is Purified Water?
Purified water is water that has been filtered or processed to remove impurities like chemicals and other contaminants.
According to Anju Mobin, Certified Nutritionist and Managing Editor of Best of Nutrition, “purified water is water that undergoes a filtration process and then is purified to get rid of chemical pollutants, pathogens, and other impurities. Purified water assures that the vital minerals you need to function are present in the water you’re drinking. Purification removes harmful bacteria that otherwise can lead to diseases, stomach pain and naseaua, protects you from gastrointestinal problems, strengthens your immunity, and helps your digestive system to work well.”
The Chlorophyll Water team also asked Dr. Henry Hackney to explain to us what exactly purified water is, “Purified water is water that has been mechanically filtered or processed to remove impurities and make it usable ( bacteria, algae, parasites, metals like copper and lead, chemical pollutants, fungi). Purified water removes the chemicals in your water, but still keep the essential minerals. Purified water tastes and smells better than tap water.”
Abby Vichelli, MS, RDN, LD, a registered dietician tells us that “Purified water or "filtered" water has undergone mechanical filtering to remove contaminants such as pesticides, heavy metals, and other toxins like microbes, plastics, and medications to name a few.” Vichelli continues, “Purifying water cleans out the contaminants that are often found in high levels. As mentioned, filtering out these harmful substances allows one to reduce their overall toxic exposure, reduce the risk of chronic disease, and best optimize health. Another benefit to purifying water is that one is likely to feel better and function more optimally as a result of consuming fewer chemicals and toxins that the body is not equipt to filter itself.”
Dr. Sashini Seeni, General Practitioner of Medicine at DoctorOnCall (M.B.B.S.) echoes these statements, telling us “Purified water is free from heavy metals like lead and copper. These metals are known to cause debilitating medical conditions in humans like anaemia, kidney, liver and brain damage. Another benefit of purified water is it removes chlorine which is a common chemical added to the public water supply as a disinfectant. Long term exposure to chlorine may increase the risks for certain cancers like colorectal cancer. Another benefit of purifying water is that it removes unpleasant taste associated with organic matters, chemical treatments or metal plumbing. This gives you fresh, crisp water that’ll motivate one to drink more daily.”
Registered Dietician and nutrition researcher, Hayley Cimring breaks down what purified water is and purified water’s benefit’s to the human body by telling us:
“Purified drinking water is the type of drinking water in which the impurities are reduced to such an extent that they don’t form more than 10 parts per million Purified water goes through a process similar to what filtered water goes through, but with a few added steps like reverse osmosis, distillation, or deionization. The end result is far purer than filtered, spring or tap water."
So why is purified water better than any other alternatives? Here are the top 3 reasons (according to Hayley Cimring, R.D.):
1.Essential minerals
Drinking purified water assures that the vital minerals you need to function are present in the water you’re drinking. Such minerals are potassium, phosphorus, calcium, sodium, magnesium, and iron are but a few.
2.Bacteria
Aside from the chemicals and dirt that can get in to your water, perhaps the scariest of all is the thought of microorganisms. Purified water removes harmful bacteria that otherwise can lead to sickness, stomach pain and nausea.
3.Chlorine
Chlorine disinfects water - making it smell and taste cleaner.
The bottom line is it’s good for your health to drink adequate distilled water that is free of contaminants and nice to drink.” - Hayley Cimring, Registered Dietician
Top 5 Health Benefits of Drinking Purified Water:
1.Nourished glowing skin.
Healthy skin equates to well hydrated skin! Appropriate hydration can improve your skin quality drastically. Having enough water content in our epidermis makes up for a plump and supple appearance
2. Improved scalp and hair health.
Hydrating your scalp with chemical-free water is the first step you should take to ensure hair health. One-fourth of the weight of every hair strand is water weight. So, drinking ample of pure water will certainly strengthen your hair.
3. Aids in weight-loss.
Drinking more water can substantially boost your metabolism, cleanse your body of toxic wastes and also suppress your appetite. Although you must do more than just drink water if your intentions are to lose significant weight. But, it will definitely give you an edge!
4. Keeps your joints and muscles healthy.
75% of our muscles is constituted of water. So, it is extremely important to supply adequate amount of water to our body to keep our muscular functionality optimal. Moreover, being well-hydrated reduces the chances of injuries and muscle cramps. Also, water is an essential constituent in the makeup of the synovial fluid that is responsible for lubrication in the joints. so, it is highly recommended for people to keep track of their water intake.
5. Clean water aids digestion.
The solution to digestive issues can be as simple as drinking ample of clean water. Water helps in the breakdown of large food molecules to facilitate easy absorption. Also, water is the primary agent that moves the digestive system along
Allison Camp, PhD in Toxicology, and Founder of Non-Toxic Home Consulting, a water quality expert and specialist, tells us that “One of the main benefits of purified water is that it doesn’t contain any harmful chemicals. This allows our bodies to use the water for healthy functioning without the extra burden of detoxing the chemicals. Purified water is great for healthy liver and kidney function, because these organs won't need to work as hard to clear out impurities. Ultimately purified water benefits the entire body.”
According to Lisa Richards, nutritionist and author of The Candida Diet describes to us that “Drinking purified water allows you to consume safe water without the loss of beneficial minerals or presence of harmful contaminants. There are some health benefits that are byproducts of drinking purified water like reduced risk of certain cancers. Heavy metals are commonly found in regular tap water and are linked to some cancers, drinking purified water allows you to reduce this risk by eliminating one significant risk factor; heavy metals.”
Our Chlorophyll Water is purified water is purified through a triple filtered process, including carbon filtration, and then UV treated.
What is Triple Filtration?
It is essential for the best performance to be achieved that a multi stage process be used in order to remove a wide range of contaminants. Our purified water goes through a three step purification process.
Our triple filtration purification uses a combination of carbon filtration? ion exchange and sub-micron filtration to produce truly healthy? great tasting water. Filters out Copepods, chlorine? lead? synthetic chemicals? VOCs, THMs? MTBE, Turbidity, Cysts (chlorine resistant parasites) and leaves in the natural trace minerals, for naturally healthy, great tasting water!
Published reports and studies show the advantages of Top Benefits of Triple Filtered Water:
- May help mitigate the risk of cancer by getting rid of a wide range of carcinogenic contaminants
- Increases hydration
- May help reduce the risk of gastrointestinal diseases
- Helps support natural growth and development in children
- May help reduce the risk of birth defects in pregnant women
- Strengthens the natural immune system
- Retains the healthy mineral deposits in the water leading to overall good health
- Good flavor and smell
What is Carbon Filtration?
Studies show that water purification removes harmful contaminants from water. Carbon filtration physically blocks or chemically removes contaminants, is a different purification technique from reverse osmosis, which filters water through a semi-permeable membrane, and distillation, which vaporizes water to separate it from the contaminants.
Carbon filters are very effective at removing a number of deleterious chemicals. These include chlorine, benzene, radon, solvents trihalomethane compounds, volatile organic chemicals such as pesticides and herbicides and hundreds of other man-made chemicals that may come into contact with water as it proceeds through the system. In addition, carbon filters remove bad tastes and odors from the water.
According to published reports, the Top Benefits of Carbon Filtered Water:
- Goodbye Contaminants
Carbon block filters are incredibly porous. This means that, just like a sponge, carbon filters allow water to be absorbed and cleaned by merely passing through it. These filters remove asbestos, cysts, lead, certain pesticides, trihalomethanes, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Carbon filters use no chemicals. They also don’t strip the water of its naturally occurring salts and minerals.
- Tastes Better
The natural purification process leaves the water tasting much better than before. Many people despise the taste of tap water. Carbon block filters absorb the unpleasant odors, leaving the water much more appealing.
- Improved Health
Drinking purified water helps protect the body from illness or diseases that can happen due to drinking unpurified water. From gastrointestinal issues to cancer, clean drinking water is essential for your overall health.
Also, using a carbon filter, all unwanted contaminants are removed while still retaining all the healthy mineral deposits that are supposed to be present in water. These include calcium and magnesium that are necessary minerals in the body.
What is UV Treated Water?
Ultraviolet water purification is one of the most effective methods for disinfecting bacteria from the water. Ultraviolet (UV) rays penetrate harmful pathogens in your water and destroy illness-causing microorganisms by attacking their genetic core (DNA). UV purification utilizes a physical and chemical-free process to remove contaminants from water. Electromagnetic radiation is used to decontaminate the water from various chemicals, bacteria and other materials. This is extremely efficient in eliminating their ability to reproduce. UV purification and treatment destroys 99.99% of harmful microorganisms without adding chemicals or changing your water’s taste or odor.
