David Benjamin here from healthy wildf
0:01
free in this video today you're going to
0:03
learn the five different forms of water
0:05
from the least to the most healthy forms
0:07
of water that you can drink and before
0:10
we get into that you know there's so
0:12
many options you can go to the store and
0:14
fill up your own jugs you can get
0:16
different pites that claim to filter
0:18
everything including fluoride from home
0:20
from a little pitcher you can also get
0:22
different devices that will add hydrogen
0:25
or ozone or different elements to your
0:27
water or structure it or make it special
0:29
or unique in a certain way now I can go
0:31
on and on and on and in my lifetime I've
0:33
literally utilized in the neighborhood
0:35
A5 to $20,000 worth of water filtration
0:38
and water optimization technology to
0:40
improve my Independent Health with that
0:43
being said I've learned a lot along the
0:45
way so in this video I'm going to share
0:46
with you the five different types of
0:47
water and we'll be talking about the
0:49
purification and filtration part of
0:53
healthy water today but in another video
0:55
we'll explore the optimization and
0:57
things you can do to add to water to
0:59
make it healthier so before we jump in I
1:01
want to share with you a few things that
1:02
water does so you can understand the key
1:05
aspects of hydration and why it's so
1:07
important to say hydrated and what it
1:08
means to your health and your biology so
1:11
when we're born as a baby about 75% of
1:13
our body is water I mean look at a baby
1:16
you can see they're basically fat and
1:18
water their skin is healthy they look
1:20
they're just sitting there and they're
1:21
like they're full of water and fat and
1:23
they're very they're very viscous right
1:25
they're growing and their body sort of
1:27
grows into this uh adult human being and
1:30
as we age that de that hydration
1:32
declines and it creates dehydration and
1:35
by the time we die about 50% of our body
1:38
is water this is why elderly people get
1:40
wrinkles this is why people sort of
1:42
shrivel up our cells are losing water
1:44
our tissues are losing water our skin is
1:46
losing water uh and it's a visible thing
1:48
we can see as we age but internally it
1:51
does the same thing it's it's removing
1:55
lubrication that water grants us
1:57
internally to keep our joints fluid and
2:00
moving to keep our skin hydrated the
2:03
number one cause of headaches and
2:05
migraines is dehydration so simply
2:07
staying hydrated is a key element in
2:09
keeping uh migraines and and headaches
2:11
at Bay and there's so many other
2:14
benefits it like I said lubricates your
2:16
joints it aids in detoxification it
2:19
helps with nutrient and oxygen
2:22
Transportation it helps with uh skin
2:25
Health it helps with uh just all your
2:27
ligaments joints tissue it once again
2:29
it's a lubricant just like healthy fats
2:31
are lubricant water is a lubricant also
2:34
and it also helps to just simply protect
2:36
your organs and tissue uh your tissues
2:39
and it does this by creating a barrier
2:41
right your lymphatic system is comprised
2:44
of water so having enough water and
2:47
being properly hydrated is so very
2:50
important because it maintains your
2:52
health and it's an elemental form of
2:54
your health so oxygen and hydration are
2:57
two of the most important things along
2:58
with sleep that if you get your oxygen
3:01
your hydration and your sleep on track
3:04
you can actually get away with some
3:06
things in your diet and maybe not work
3:07
out as much because you're sleeping good
3:09
you're hydrating good and you're
3:11
breathing well and these things are
3:13
foundational elements of your health and
3:15
wellness routine so with that being said
3:18
let's jump into the different types of
3:19
water and how these can play into your
3:23
health and what's the least valuable
3:25
form of water and what's the healthiest
3:26
form of water that you can possibly
3:34
okay so there are five different forms
3:36
of water that you can drink and I'm
3:38
really passionate about this subject
3:39
because I'm from Michigan and in
3:41
Michigan there's a lot of battles that
3:43
occur with water we constantly have
3:45
Nestle and other companies coming in and
3:47
draining the Great Lakes meanwhile
3:49
downstate in areas like Detroit and
3:51
Flint uh we have high levels of lead in
3:53
the water that are quite literally at
3:55
levels that are harmful to human health
3:58
and meanwhile we have some of the clean
3:59
water Upstate that is quite literally
4:01
just being taken by some of the largest
4:03
corporations in the world so for me
4:05
personally uh seeing the contrast there
4:08
just kind of planted a seed in my mind
4:10
and got me interested in water and
4:12
actually the hometown that I grew grew
4:14
up in uh a company called Wolverine
4:16
worldwide actually littered Scotch Guard
4:19
the spray that you spray on like leather
4:21
boots they literally dumped barrels of
4:23
this all over my hometown and it got
4:25
into the well water and it caused people
4:26
to get cancer and Aaron Brockovich from
4:29
the film actually came to my hometown
4:31
and talked about it and brought
4:33
attention and awareness to it so uh
4:34
these things are very close to me uh
4:36
another instance just real quick uh I
4:38
was living in Dearborn Michigan and I
4:40
got a letter from the city and the
4:42
letter just simply said the levels of
4:44
lead in the water that to in the tap
4:47
water are higher than the recommended
4:48
safe amount like they just laid this on
4:52
us and I I was filtering water and I've
4:53
always been filtering water to some
4:54
degree so uh both drinking water and
4:57
shower water which I'll get to in this
4:59
video but it's important to understand
5:01
that the water that you consume is quite
5:03
literally what hydrates or harms your
5:06
cells and the purity of that water is
5:09
determined it that's what determines the
5:12
health of your cells so cellular
5:14
hydration is a huge aspect because once
5:16
again the water is what carries
5:18
nutrients and oxygens to your cells but
5:21
the water is also what removes waste
5:23
from your cells so that energetic
5:25
exchange of giving your body giving your
5:27
cells what it needs and removing things
5:30
water plays a key pivotal role in that
5:32
and the healthier that water the better
5:35
it can do its job the better it it moves
5:38
things in and out of the body so let's
5:40
get into the five different forms of
5:41
water the first form of water and the
5:43
absolute worst form of water you could
5:44
possibly drink is tap water that's
5:47
because tap water is filtered it's not
5:50
even really filtered it is filtered but
5:51
it's weakly filtered and I would say
5:54
more sanitized by a municipal water
5:57
source where they quite literally add
5:59
chlorine which is a corrosive agent a
6:01
known carcinogen a known cancer-causing
6:03
agent sure it's in small amounts but
6:05
over time you're drinking a lot of water
6:07
and you're exposing your skin to water
6:08
and you're cooking with water you're
6:10
getting water on your skin and in your
6:11
body and this is a known carcinogen
6:14
chlorine not only do they add chlorine
6:16
but they add fluoride which they claim
6:18
is for dental health but if you look
6:19
into the research on that there's
6:21
different forms of fluoride and sodium
6:23
fluoride which is a toxic chemical waste
6:26
byproduct is what's added to the
6:27
Municipal Water Supply so you have
6:30
chlorine fluoride the water in municipal
6:33
water sources is transported through
6:35
metal pipes in the older the city that
6:37
you live in the older these pipes the
6:39
more corrosion there is more oxidation
6:41
which leads to Metals getting in your
6:43
water which is why when I live in deborn
6:45
Michigan or places like Detroit which
6:47
have just as high of heavy uh lead heavy
6:50
metals like lead in the water as Flint
6:52
do but it doesn't get the air time and
6:54
whether you're in Chicago or LA or New
6:56
York or Cleveland or Atlanta or Houston
6:59
or Miami wherever you are if you live in
7:02
a city where the infrastructure has old
7:05
metal pipes that is Coro there's
7:08
corrosion that occurs over time and
7:09
that's going to get into your top water
7:10
so your tap water has added chemicals
7:13
heavy metals traces of pharmaceutical
7:15
drugs that are very um they're they're
7:18
Nano in terms of their you know size and
7:21
these get into the top water supply
7:23
because people flush these drugs or put
7:25
them down their toilet or in their sink
7:27
or whatever so you're literally getting
7:29
small doses of pharmaceutical drugs that
7:31
you do not want to take which are
7:32
influencing your biology which is
7:34
horrible so tap water is quite literally
7:38
the worst form of water that you can
7:39
possibly drink and I would avoid it like
7:41
the plague in fact I do when I go to
7:42
restaurants I don't drink tap water I
7:44
literally would rather be dehydrated
7:46
personally than to drink tap water
7:48
because I know I can rehydrate later
7:50
with healthy high quality water and
7:52
drinking tap water is something that I'm
7:54
literally putting directly into my cells
7:55
so it's a huge no no for me the second
7:58
form of water that is a little bit
8:00
higher on the totem pole but not quite
8:02
necessarily super high quality is
8:04
bottled water or purified water you'll
8:06
see this at the store different brands
8:08
like Nestle or you know these different
8:10
spring Brands will bottle their water
8:12
and some of them will say spring water
8:14
some of them will say purified water it
8:16
doesn't really matter what the label
8:18
says um the only real water in the store
8:20
that is healthier is distilled water but
8:22
it's still in plastic so I would
8:24
personally avoid it but when you have
8:26
these bottled forms of water what you
8:28
have to keep in mind is that if it's
8:29
spring water for example that spring
8:31
water can be 51% tap water or excuse me
8:36
49% tap water and they can label it
8:39
spring water so even the spring water
8:42
that you buy at the store is not really
8:44
spring water and even the purified water
8:46
you buy at the store may not be fully
8:48
purified because they have a specific
8:51
ratio that they can utilize similar to
8:53
organic produce USDA organic produce has
8:55
more than 20 different pesticides that
8:57
can be used on organic produce in
8:59
socalled organic so I would caution you
9:02
from buying bottled or you know uh
9:05
purified Spring Water any forms of water
9:08
and plastic at the store I would just
9:09
simply avoid it because these forms of
9:11
water although they might be slightly
9:13
better they probably only going to be
9:14
50% better than the tap water and that's
9:17
still not that great so the next form of
9:20
water we have up the totem pole is
9:21
distilled water distilled water is
9:23
actually pretty good uh however it it's
9:26
not the most ideal and I'll tell you why
9:29
so distillation is essentially a process
9:31
where you put water into this chamber
9:33
and it's mimicking nature so in nature
9:35
you have the sort of this process of
9:37
evaporation which is the humidity Rising
9:40
uh and then you have condensation which
9:42
is rain right so that evaporation and
9:45
condensation process in nature is
9:47
actually a distillation process that
9:49
evaporation process is distillation so
9:51
evaporation is simply it's a it's a
9:53
heating process where you heat up water
9:55
the heated up water the cloud water
9:57
let's just call it Cloud water is what's
9:59
extracted and then that waste water is
10:01
removed that cloud water is the
10:03
distilled water now this is a good
10:05
process for purifying and filtering and
10:07
removing contaminants from water however
10:09
it does not I repeat it does not remove
10:12
vo's volatile organic compounds these
10:16
are a class of chemicals that will
10:18
evaporate into that distilled water and
10:20
you can distill water 2 3 four times but
10:24
then you have to sit there all day
10:25
making your water and it just gets a
10:26
little bit ridiculous uh because you're
10:29
you're yeah you can filter and make it
10:30
more pure and more clean however you're
10:32
still not filtering Volo organic
10:34
compounds you might filter more of them
10:35
by distilling two three four times but
10:37
you literally have to make the water
10:38
over and over and over which is why I
10:40
don't like the berky systems or these
10:42
like gravity fed systems you have unless
10:44
they're for survival situations to me
10:46
they're very useless they take up a ton
10:48
of counter space and you have to
10:49
actually like make the water like who
10:51
wants to make their water nature just
10:53
gives us water so that makes the most
10:55
sense to me moving a bit higher up so so
10:58
far you have tap water or purified water
11:00
and then distilled water these are
11:02
moving up right the second highest
11:04
quality form of water that you can
11:05
possibly get and this is probably going
11:07
to be the most feasible for most of you
11:09
is reverse osmosis water now you have to
11:12
understand that reverse osmosis water is
11:14
similar or close to distillation in that
11:17
it filters and removes a lot of the
11:18
contaminants that distilled water does
11:20
but it also removes voc's volatile
11:23
organic compounds which is once again a
11:24
class of chemicals that distillation
11:26
does not remove so I like reverse osm
11:29
because how it works is it utilizes a
11:32
pressure it actually so osmosis which
11:34
our body and our cells utilize osmosis
11:37
to get water into our cells so our cells
11:40
are round like this and osmotic
11:44
pressure opens up the cell which
11:46
minerals are the electrical conduit that
11:49
open up the cells which allow water to
11:51
get into the cell so our bodies
11:53
understand and utilize the process of
11:55
osmosis for hydration already now
11:58
reverse osmosis is taking that osmotic
12:01
pressure scenario where water and
12:03
minerals are the two components we need
12:05
to open up the cell and create what is
12:07
known as intra in int meaning inside
12:10
intracellular hydration and what reverse
12:14
osmosis does is it reverses that process
12:16
and instead of that pressure going into
12:19
something it pulls it out of something
12:21
so with osmosis that pressure is opening
12:24
the cell wall and it's getting water
12:25
into the cell and that's a good thing
12:27
now reverse osmosis which is a brilliant
12:29
idea if you think about it it takes that
12:31
same process it reverses the flow it
12:33
creates pressure in the opposite
12:34
direction and that pressure goes through
12:37
a semi-permeable layer and it removes
12:40
the contaminants so we're talking
12:42
chlorine fluoride heavy metals traces of
12:46
pharmaceutical drugs volatile organic
12:48
compounds and any other contaminants
12:50
we're talking even like living
12:52
contaminants bacteria mold uh living
12:55
pathogens things like that as well so
12:57
both man-made dangers and nature Made
13:00
dangers reverse osmosis is a filtration
13:03
process that applies certain amount of
13:06
pressure to that using osmotic pressure
13:09
in reverse to remove these contaminants
13:12
from the water and on the outside gives
13:13
you pure water now the one objection
13:15
that people have with reverse osmosis
13:17
water is that it's taking out the
13:19
minerals and this is bad because water
13:21
has minerals and our body needs Minerals
13:23
Well that may be true however if you
13:26
want to have the cleanest and purest
13:28
water that you can possibly have reverse
13:30
osmosis water filtration technology is
13:32
by far the most developed and advanced
13:34
form of water filtration technology on
13:37
the market now there's different levels
13:39
and there's different terms of there's
13:40
different types of quality of reverse
13:42
osmosis water and there's reverse
13:44
osmosis that actually the one that I
13:46
like and personally use actually
13:48
remineralizes so it goes through the
13:50
reverse osmosis process and then it
13:52
allows minerals to pass through the
13:53
barrier and that company is called Oma
13:56
Organics now they have a filter and I'll
13:59
actually put on the screen here it was
14:00
funny my brother in Florida he had I
14:03
gave him a filter uh for under his sink
14:04
and this was many years ago from a
14:06
company um and I don't even want to say
14:08
their name cuz I don't want to give them
14:09
bad press but it's the same company of
14:11
the water picture I showed you I use it
14:13
as like a secondary filter for my
14:14
Upstream filtered water I filter
14:15
multiple times and uh my brother was
14:17
like hey I need a replacement can you
14:19
send me the link to that and I was like
14:20
sure and then I thought about and I was
14:22
like you know what I didn't know about I
14:24
didn't really understand Oma Organics
14:25
water filtration until I got deep into
14:29
understanding the filtration process the
14:30
different mechanisms uh the there's
14:32
different uh filters within the Oma
14:35
filter like kdf that I didn't even know
14:37
about I wasn't aware about that these
14:39
remove like these metals or these traces
14:41
of pharmaceutical drugs or these
14:42
chemicals or whatever it may be or the
14:44
charcoal or the carbon or these
14:46
different things so having not only
14:47
reverse osmosis but different types of
14:49
filters that the water is traveling
14:51
through while it's being filtered will
14:53
remove these different contaminants so I
14:56
said you know what that old one it's
14:58
good but but get the Oma one it's better
15:00
and it was funny and I'll put it up on
15:01
the screen here the old filter this one
15:06
$600 the tall filter was $600 for three
15:09
filters and Oma Organics filter was
15:13
$290 and there's a discount right now
15:16
which I'll put below so it's literally
15:18
half the price and as you can see the
15:20
filter the taller filter was it's
15:24
actually smaller because the depth or
15:28
not the depth but the uh the girth of it
15:30
is smaller and the Oma filter even
15:32
though it's a little bit shorter it's
15:33
it's a wider filter so you get more
15:36
filter that the water goes through and
15:38
when the water goes through more
15:39
filtration material it's getting
15:40
filtered better right if you have three
15:42
filters or six filters you're going to
15:44
get more out of six filters especially
15:46
if they're the same size so the three
15:47
filters from Oma Organics were bigger
15:50
than the six and the six cost double the
15:54
amount so quite literally get this
15:56
you're going to get half not half sorry
15:59
you're going to get four times the
16:02
amount of filtration material for the
16:05
same price so the three filters because
16:07
they're wider and you're getting like
16:10
much more filtration material and it's
16:12
less than half the cost it's like 290
16:14
but then you get 10% off that so it's
16:15
like 270 versus over 600 you're
16:18
literally getting like three to four
16:20
times as much filtration material and
16:22
it's a higher quality filter so I
16:24
recommend reverse osmosis it's the best
16:26
for filter you can possibly get and I
16:27
recommend Oma Organics because they you
16:29
simply install this filter under your
16:31
sink and you just simply instead of
16:34
drinking from your tap water you drink
16:40
instead now the other benefit with Oma
16:42
Organics is they have water filtration
16:44
for your shower so they have a different
16:46
a couple different shower filter options
16:48
this removes the chlorine uh it removes
16:50
the heavy metals the traits of the
16:52
pharmaceutical drugs it doesn't remove
16:54
the fluoride but it destabilizes the
16:55
molecular structure of it so that it's
16:57
inert and it's not Dam ding to your
16:59
cells or DNA so that's the form of water
17:02
I would recommend for almost anybody if
17:04
you live in the city if you live in the
17:06
suburbs uh even if you live in the
17:07
country because you have like pesticides
17:09
and even with well water you have um
17:11
different things like lime or calcium
17:13
deposits hardening minerals that when
17:15
you consume those those are going to
17:17
constrict and Harden your arteries and
17:19
calcify your body and agid you faster so
17:21
even to remove those is valuable so
17:23
whether you're in the country on a well
17:24
in the suburbs city city you know
17:26
anywhere in between having a filter is a
17:29
really good investment for your health
17:30
last but not least the best form of
17:32
water you can possibly get it's actually
17:34
free it's spring water now spring water
17:36
is unfortunately very hard to come by
17:38
and the reason I Shar this last is
17:39
because I have literally only been to
17:42
several Springs in my life and and I've
17:45
traveled all over the United States that
17:46
are operational that are high quality
17:49
that you know that the water is actually
17:52
um healthy right uh there's a few in
17:54
northern Michigan I've been to a few in
17:56
sort of like the Appalachian region in
17:59
um there's a few kind of in Georgia um
18:02
I'm sure there's some in the Northwest
18:03
there's got to be some in Colorado and
18:05
and you know Oregon Washington I'm sure
18:07
there's some up there but overall
18:09
there's not a lot left and unfortunately
18:11
a lot of these Springs have been capped
18:13
meaning they cover them and they just
18:14
restrict access uh but you can look at a
18:16
website called find apr.org and it's
18:19
kind of a fun treasure hunt and you can
18:21
just grab your bottles and go fill up
18:23
spring water that water is the
18:24
healthiest you can possibly get however
18:26
I caution people against this because if
18:29
you don't know if it's high quality
18:30
spring water if you don't know the
18:31
source uh if you don't have what is
18:32
known as a TDS meter which measures the
18:35
parts per billion uh essentially like
18:37
what's in the water besides water um
18:40
it's probably best to just simply get a
18:42
high quality filter at your home and
18:44
maybe do that as a hobby and something
18:46
that you kind of learn and develop over
18:47
time but with that being said I hope
18:49
this video was helpful and valuable to
18:51
you once again the five forms of water
18:53
least to highest quality is tap water is
18:55
the worst bottle purified is the second
18:57
worst distills okay kind of in the
18:58
middle and then you have reverse osmosis
19:00
which is good um it's really the best
19:03
you can get in your home uh and you know
19:06
I'll put links below like I said for Oma
19:07
Organics they're under the filter sinks
19:09
they're under the filter under the sink
19:11
filters and they shower filters so you
19:13
can remove chlorine fluoride all these
19:14
different things uh and get clean pure
19:17
water in your body and on your skin and
19:19
then the highest form of water is going
19:20
to be spring water now it's important to
19:22
keep in mind that if you're drinking
19:23
reverse oses water I personally take
19:25
electrolytes uh paleo Valley has these
19:28
good electrolytes called essential
19:29
electrolytes I'll put a link to this
19:31
below that's 15% off you can also take
19:33
radiate 21 it's a supplement that I
19:35
formulated it has lime lemon and orange
19:37
extract in it which gives you a wide
19:40
range of electrolytes along with uh 21
19:43
different um total Botanical in here for
19:45
gut health lymphatic health and EMF
19:48
protection mitigation and then the other
19:50
thing you could do if you want to like
19:51
optimize water uh you can just simply
19:53
get this is a hydrogen water machine it
19:56
adds uh one to three ppb parts per
20:01
billion of hydrogen into the water
20:03
depending on the time that you run it uh
20:05
but hydrogen it just helps to hydrate
20:06
your body better so it helps it helps
20:09
your mitochondria it's beneficial for
20:12
reducing sort of Aging it's good for
20:13
your gut microbiome it's great for
20:15
Mitigation Of EMS electromagnetic
20:17
frequencies or radiation so if you're on
20:19
technology cell phones Wi-Fi Bluetooth
20:21
5G and your work like I am it's good to
20:23
get hydrogen water in so this is a good
20:25
way once you have that high quality
20:27
water you can optimize it you can add
20:29
electrolytes um you can add hydrogen to
20:32
it you don't want to add the
20:32
electrolytes in here but you add the
20:34
hydrogen and then you pour it out drink
20:36
it or add electrolytes to it um just to
20:38
give your body those minerals because
20:39
those minerals are what open the
20:41
cellular membrane to create
20:42
intracellular hydration so that's it for
20:46
this video it's been a long one I hope
20:47
that you enjoyed it I hope that you are
20:49

20:52
for your water for your hydration I'll
20:54
put some resources below some articles
20:56
to different um stories about bottled
20:58
water stories about water filtration
21:00

21:02
out the comment section because I'll put
21:03
links to the different things I talked
21:05
about and recommended more articles more
