Myth #1 - Reverse Osmosis Water is Unhealthy to Drink
Truth: Reverse Osmosis water is very clean and good for our bodies.
Reverse osmosis has been called dead water because of its purity. Detractors say it is man-made, unnatural and unhealthy. They claim that RO water can only be used for industrial applications and not for human consumption. They say that RO water is too pure and clean to be good because such perfectly clean mineral-free water does not exist naturally on earth. They forgot about a little thing called RAIN.
Rainwater is water that has been stripped of all minerals and is one of the purest and cleanest water on earth. Human beings have relied on drinking rainwater for thousands of years without any negative health effects. Only recently has rainwater been polluted by the industrial age and man's pollution of the skies. Ask yourself this. What can be more natural than mother-nature's life giving rain?
With all the scientific research that has been done over the years on reverse osmosis water, none has ever documented any negative health effects from water treated by this method. In fact RO technology was actually invented by the US military and our military personnel still use it currently for drinking water.
Some more facts to consider.
1. Bottled Water = RO Water

Even Beverly Hills 90210 is using RO water. Hey if reverse osmosis is good enough for the OC and the Hollywood elite that must tell you something!
4. GE & DOW water = RO Water
General Electric and DOW chemical are two of the largest and most respected companies in the scientific community and both sell and endorse reverse osmosis technology for drinking water.
5. Arrowhead & Culligan water = RO Water

6. Google Campus Water = RO Water
