I have always heard that reverse osmosis water purification systems are wasteful, but I had no idea how wasteful they really were until today.

I work with a network marketing company that sells water filters among other things, so I decided to do some research to put together a free report about how to pick the right water filter for your home.  Of course, I’m hoping that when I’m done all of the evidence will say you should buy mine, but I’m trying to keep an open mind about what I find.

The report isn’t finished yet but I had to share what I found out about how wasteful reverse osmosis systems are.   And that is that household systems are only 5-15% efficient.  That means that up to 95% of the water going into the system goes straight down the drain.  If you get 5 gallons of water from a household reverse osmosis system, you may have flushed from 40 to 90 gallons of water down the drain.  I was absolutely astounded.

Fortunately, industrial systems, which have higher pressures,  are closer to 48% efficient, which is still terrible, but at least they get almost half of the water to use.

My filter is nearly 100% efficient. Sometimes I spill.

UPDATE: The water filtration report is finished and you can find it here.

I’m with a network marketing company that, among other things, sells a nutritional juice product.  I received an email this morning from my upline that made me think about artificial additives in our food.  Someone had asked the Distributor Relations department of our MLM company if they could share the difference between our juice product, Ciaga, with the juice product from a competitor.  It turns out that the competitor’s juice, which contains a lot of Vitamin C, also contains Sodium Benzoate as a preservative.  It turns out that sodium benzoate can interact with vitamin C and form Benzene, an organic solvent that is known to cause cancer and liver damage.

My point here is not to bash the other company and their product, which is why I have not named them, but to point out that we need to be very careful when buying food to really think about added chemicals and how they may react with each other and the food they are added to.  I strongly encourage you to look at organic and all-natural versions of food.  They may be more expensive in the short term but can save you a lot in the long-term.

By the way, Ciaga is  100% natural.  97% juice and 3% fruit solids with no artificial preservatives and no added water or sugar.
