The Science Behind Personal Water FiltrationHave you ever wondered how something works or how something was made? In the monthly Science Behind series, we partner with a guest presenter to explore a large variety of interesting topics. The Science Behind series offers opportunities for adults to apply new knowledge and skills to everyday life, while having fun! 

** This Science Behind event took place in October, 2012 **

 

How Restructured, Alkaline-Iodized Drinking Water Neutralizes Acids to Balance Our Body and Blood

Restructured tap water, using personal water ionization technologies, can enhance health and eliminate the need for common household cleaning chemicals.

Join Walking Mountains Science Center on October 10th, 2012 at 6:30pm for the continuation of the Science Behind series.  By the end of this fun, hands-on workshop, participants will understand the basics of how restructured, alkaline-iodized drinking water neutralizes acids, balancing our body and blood pH which can help prevent degenerative diseases, fight aging and flush body toxins.

Upcoming Science Behind Schedule

Participants will experience first-hand how restructured tap water can be made to have varying levels of pH, which allows for its use as a cleaning and disinfecting agent, eliminating the need for expensive and often toxic chemicals.  They will also compare the pH level of various brands of bottled water, popular beverages and restructured, ionized tap water.  Just like in our local rivers and streams, increased alkalinity in our own bodies helps buffer us against the toxic effects of acidity.

Ted James is a retired science teacher who serves on the Boards of both the Walking Mountains Science Center and the Colorado Watershed Assembly.  Ted continues his work as a River Watch volunteer, monitoring the pH of Buck Creek, Beaver Creek and the Eagle River.  Ted will be joined by Jim Coddington, a Hydration Specialist from Los Angeles.
