Taking a shower using New Wave Enviro’s Premium Shower Filter is an essential part of my morning routine.  It is also an essential way to manage my health, because I have found that you can drastically improve your health and beauty by installing a filter in your shower head.

Most people are not aware of the dangers they are exposed to when showering without a filter, namely chlorine.  Chlorine is often used to purify the water we drink and bathe in; however, it is very dangerous to our health.  Exposure to chlorine can lead to such health problems as heart disease, bladder and breast cancer, and asthma.  What’s mind-boggling is that 50% of our exposure to chlorine happens in the shower, both through skin contact and inhalation, as the heat from a hot shower releases chlorine vapors which contaminate the lungs.

Health threats aside, shower filters can do a lot to enhance your beauty.  You can actually replace expensive lotions and moisturizes with a shower filter, because water, with the absence of chlorine, hydrates and rejuvenates skin.  Upon using the filter, your hair will also begin to heal itself from all the damage chlorine has caused it and your skin will appear vibrant and smooth.  How about that for cost-benefit analysis!

A recent study performed on mice revealed that prenatal exposure to bisphenol-A (BPA) may affect a fetus for life.  Therefore, adult women who were exposed prenatally to BPA could be at increased risk of breast cancer, according to a new study soon to be published in Hormones & Cancer.  BPA is an endocrine-disrupting chemical that interferes with normal reproductive, developmental, neurological, and immune functions in humans and animals.  Endocrine-disrupting chemicals such as BPA are designed, produced and marketed largely for specific industrial purposes.

In a recent post featured on ecochildsplay.com, the author recalls drinking pregnancy tea during both of her pregnancies.  Pregnancy tea is chock full of important vitamins and minerals that assist in healthy fetal development.  The abovementioned author drank the tea from a Nalgene bottle, before anyone became aware of the existence of BPA in plastics.  Now, we are well aware of the dangerous health effects linked to BPA.

Thankfully, New Wave Enviro provides a wide array of 100% BPA Free water bottles, including the only reusable 5 Gallon BPA Free bottle.  Visit ‘www.newwaveenviro.com’ to learn more about New Wave Enviro’s awesome BPA Free and eco-friendly products.

The State of New York recently placed a 5-cent deposit on bottled water, implying that New York consumers will pay $2 more for a 24-pack of water.  This may be the nudge that many people need to get over their dependency on bottled water and switch to healthier solutions.

According to an article from treehugger.com titled “A World of Reasons to Ditch Bottled Water,” approximately 1.5 million barrels of oil, enough to run 100,000 cars for a whole year, are used to make plastic water bottles, which is one of the reasons why a gallon of bottled water costs 10,000 times more than a gallon of tap water.

The issue shouldn’t just be about the extra cost, but more about your health and the welfare of our planet.  Plastic is essentially no better for us than junk food.  According to Nature Solutions Magazine, 10 brands of water bottles have been found to contain 38 contaminants including bacteria, acetaminophen, fertilizer, solvents and strontium, a radioactive element.  Bottled water is not regulated by the government like tap water is.  So chances are your unfiltered tap water is cleaner than the bottled water you are drinking.

It is imperative that you invest in a New Wave Premium 10 Stage Water Filter to ensure that your water is pure and contaminant-free.  Want the convenient aspect of bottled water?  You can purchase one of New Wave’s BPA free Seriously Safe Stainless Steel drinking water bottles.  That way, any water you and your family consume in and out of the house will be purified and healthy for you and the environment!

With all of the news circulating of bisphenol A (BPA) legislation in the United States, it’s not surprising that other countries around the globe have taken a stance against the toxic chemical as well.  International pressure to eliminate BPA has intensified after our neighbor across the Pacific Ocean unveiled a deal with major retailers to begin the immediate phasing out of baby bottles containing BPA.  That the chemical is used as a plasticiser in polycarbonate bottles was the primary reason behind the Australian Government brokering the deal with a string of leading retailers, including Coles, K Mart, and Target.  The move coincides with the start of Denmark’s ban on the chemical in food contact materials aimed at children aged three and under. Last week, the French senate confirmed it would be introducing a similar ban as well.  The phase out in Australia begins today, July 1st.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) continues to carry out further research on the effects of BPA.  With convincing evidence already linking BPA with health problems in children, it is imperative that we stop exposing our loved ones to the dangerous toxin.  Please visit www.newwaveenviro.com to learn more about New Wave Enviro’s line of ECO-nomical, BPA-free drinking water bottles.

If you’re looking for a good reason to purchase one of New Wave’s Seriously Safe Stainless Steel drinking water bottles, look no further!  Below you will see what a New Wave customer said about the awesome 40-ounce drinking water bottle:

“I just bought this bottle like a week ago and I can tell it’s already better than a Sigg and other bottles I’ve tried in the past. First of all, it’s not aluminum and yeah yeah they Sigg tells you it’s coated and you don’t have to worry about aluminum exposure. But let me tell you I’ve tried 2 of their bottles and turned them back. The first one I had the threads were not properly coated and I tasted aluminum every time I took a sip, and the second started tasting bad because I forgot to wash it only one night, One Night! That’s all it took, and the bad taste would not go away, even after soaking it in baking soda and water, and after that didn’t work, vinegar and water. Turned it back, got this one instead, it was worth it. First of all there are a couple of great pros compared to other bottles.

1. Stainless steel – You don’t have to worry about exposing yourself to aluminum or plastic that is said to impart chemicals into the water.
2. The cap is perfect in everyway, Leak proofed by a silicon O-ring that’s firmly in place. The entire part of the cap that screws into the bottle is sealed off and is completely made of Stainless steel with nice big rounded threads so you won’t have to worry about it stripping in the future. Something Sig bottles looked like they would have a problem with in the future, especially since their cap is plastic, and the bottle treads are aluminum. Stupid idea.
3. Wide mouthed opening
4. Lightweight
5. Taste-Free
6. Easy to clean………And if you forget to clean it, there is nothing to worry about since everything is stainless steel, not some funky rubbery membrane that holds on to smells and taste.

But the main bottom line is, I’m now saving money by not buying water that is questionably pure from companies like Aquafina and Dasani, of which used to give me terrible heartburn anyway.”

That’s right everyone, 4th of July is just around the corner.  Go out and flaunt your red, white, blue, and….green colors!

While you’re out celebrating your country’s freedom and independence, support its sustainability as well by being eco-friendly.  It’s not unusual that one’s festivities on this national holiday are detrimental to the earth, whether it be the carbon emitted from grilling steaks or the litter we produce from using plastic plates, cups, and silverware.

I’m not trying to rain on your patriotic parade, but rather to offer some friendly advice on how to celebrate green.  Such techniques include avoiding plastics, which you can achieve by using New Wave’s EASTAR resin drinking water bottle to quench your thirst and packing your picnic food in New Wave’s 100% Bamboo lunch bag and stainless steel food containers.

Other tips include….

-Lightening up your fireworks

-Going green with grilling

-Including organic foods and sustainable vegetable-based items in your 4th of July Menu

If you learn that your water has worrying contaminants, you might want to consider purchasing a water filter rather than buying water bottles and contributing to mountains of plastic waste.  An estimated 1.5 million tons of plastic is manufactured from petrochemicals each year to package water, according to an April 2001 report by the World Wildlife Fund. The EPA estimates that roughly 1 million tons of plastic bottles wound up in U.S. trash bins in 1999, alone!

In addition, why purchase bottled water when it costs 240 to 10,000 times more per gallon than tap water? For just pennies a day, a water filter can provide safe drinking water for you and your family. You’ll not pay anything extra for transportation costs or cheap packaging that harms the environment.  New Wave Enviro’s Premium 10 Stage Water Filter is the most reasonable and affordable when compared to other major brands that remove as many contaminants as this filter.  Copy and paste the below link in your browser to learn more about this amazing filter:

Strictly speaking, water from a tap isn’t free — it costs about $0.00002 per ounce.  Bottled water; however, is an alarming 1,000 to 4,000 times more expensive for a single serving!  Some cities, including San Francisco, Albuquerque, Minneapolis, and Seattle, have banned city purchase of single-serve, one-time-use bottled water because of waste impact from the bottles and because it’s viewed as an unnecessary cost to taxpayers.

And there’s the waste stream from one-time use water bottles, as the impact of using these unnecessary items puts a much larger dent in our environment than our wallets…

Over the course of 10 years, the amount of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles going into landfills skyrocketed from 1,175 million to 3,900 million pounds.  “Water bottles are a big part of that problem,” said Marion Brown, a professor at Ithaca College, “because there are so many more of them, and because in many states, water bottles don’t have a redemption value like soda and beer bottles do.” Brown added that better recycling rates of water bottles would certainly help, but even better would be for people to stop purchasing one-time use water bottles altogether.

Such products as New Wave’s Seriously Safe Stainless Steel 6 ounce reusable drinking water bottles are a great solution for the plastic-conscious individual and, more importantly, the environment.  Visit www.newwaveenviro.com to learn more!
