Thinking of switching to alkaline water?
It’s not really often that we stop and think about the water we’re drinking. If the water is provided for us through our water system, then it must be safe. Right? Wrong! Safe… safe is really relative. If we’re talking about safe as in, not going to kill us, then yes it’s safe. However, do you realise that our water contains fluoride, chlorine and other kinds of heavy metals which, are all neurotoxins, meaning they are hella bad for our brains and body. Despite all the marketing about how necessary fluoride is for our teeth, many studies show that it can disrupt our hormones, damage brains, lower IQ in children and a wide variety of other health problems. In fact, a large dose of fluoride, such as a tube of toothpaste can actually kill an infant child. Anyways, not to sound like a negative nancy, I’d much rather drink deliciously clean water and give my children the best chance for their developing brains to grow.
I came across the Waters Co AcePot Bio+ Water Filter Jug and thought, hey this looks convenient. I understand that many of you may have those large water filters that sit on your bench top, though they take up a lot of space, are really expensive and aren’t cold. Now, I do like the large ones because you can easily use it for cooking etc, but I just find this Water Filter Jug so convenient, as I just love my water chilled. It’s a small 1 litre jug that is slim enough to fit into your fridge door and super easy to clean. This jug is currently on sale at Nourished Life which made me try it out. I love it because I fill up my kids thermos bottles with this everyday, so they can drink healthy, clean and cool water. It’s very affordable and comes with enough replacement filters that lasts 2 years. The lid has an adjustable date on it so you know when to change the filter!
Benefits of the Waters Co Filter Jug
- Removes 99% of Fluoride
- Alkaline energised water with a pH value of between 7.5 and 8.5.

The only downside about this convenient jug, is that you need to regularly fill it back up. Though it’s not big deal really, because it’s light, filters fast and cools down fast. So far, I am loving this water jug! The water tastes so clean and fresh! I definitely recommend. Please click on my link if you’re interested in purchasing. Let me know if you love it as much as I do!
