Drinking Water Of The Future Developed in Toronto, Canada

Due in thanks to the technology developed and employed by the United States Navy for its post world war submarine program to desalinate sea water to potable water, it is now possible to purify any source of water to absolute quality. The techniques, equipment, and procedures involve all natural processes of filtration, purification and sterilization without the use of chemicals. This revolutionary process is indicative that the world's clean drinking water has an inexhaustible supply. As long as we can pay approximately 40 cents per liter, we can process virtually any water on earth to absolute pure water. In the near future thousands of plants will be dotting the earth, producing clean, pure drinking water. Imagine the possibilities! All the hullabaloo about clean drinking water shortages in the future in the western world will no longer be an issue. Water, water everywhere --- and many oceans to drink. Start-up cost of water filtration plants can be as little as $100,000 U.S. and can output a maximum production capacity of 50,000 liters per day. Imagine this: you pour yourself a glass of water --- it tastes crisp, clean, fresh, light, silky- smooth, satisfying, and yet uniquely intoxicating. You empty your glass as you savor the unique taste and succumb to the tantalizing sensation. Not enough, you reach for another fill of your glass and with great relish you empty it --- absolutely delicious. But this is water, you thought to yourself. As far as you knew, water always tasted like medicine. If it comes from the tap, you must hold your nose and close your eyes when you drink it. Or if it is spring water, it tastes of clay, chalk, and earth, or some indigestible, inorganic mineral, and is heavy on sediments. This is your perception of water: an unpleasant fluid which you would rather not drink. but for the fact that you cannot exist for long without it, you force yourself not to drink it, but rather swallow it. You spend good money to buy predominantly-useless filters (mostly charcoal or sediment filters) and other fancy gadgets with exaggerated claims for pure, good, tasting drinking water from your tap. But all you are getting is an empty satisfaction that you are doing something to improve your drinking water quality.

Until now you never thought that water could taste this good. It can even become addictive. The fact that water can even become your beverage of choice was never a thought you entertained. Why is this? The answer is simple. In your life you have probably never tasted absolute pure water aerated with 20 percent dissolved oxygen as first created and intended by nature. If you have not, it is not your fault. It is because there is no reservoir of pure water on earth. As a result, man has no perception of pure water. The absolute quality of water (i.e. pure water) is water alone. For your convenience, pure water, is defined as water with less than 10 ppm(parts per million) of tds (total dissolved solids). What we know about the reality of water is a mixture or a contamination of water. Reservoirs or bodies of water are by all account mixtures of water and all the natural elements local to that particular body of water. For example, seawater is a mixture of a predominant salt substance, the quantity of which varies from sea to sea.

Contrary to popular beliefs, spring and ground water are not and were never pure water, even during the most pristine primordial era. Spring water is a mixture of inorganic indigestible minerals and its taste is derived from the dominant minerals common to the local of that spring. Hence, the varying tastes of spring water. The romanticism surrounding spring water is a result of human ignorance and the quest for the fabled fountain of purity. Tap water, in addition to being a mixture as all ground water, contains foremost chlorine which is used for residual sterilization. The scent of chlorine is rather unpleasant which affects the taste. Apart from chlorine, there are other chemicals used for water treatment which give an underlying taste to tap water. With all of these inorganic minerals, sediments, and particulates in spring & ground water, and chemicals in tap water, the actual taste of absolute pure water is totally compromised. It is at this state we become totally repulsed and reject water as the ultimate beverage. No longer. Now you actually crave water. Coffee, tea, pop, sodas, juices, and even milk, you would now go without for days. Your whole drinking habit is now altered. You find yourself waking up at night: thirsty, longing for water, and first thing in the morning you must down a glass or two. Perhaps and most surprising are your kids, age regardless, now lining up at the cooler while pop is lying around in the fridge. Sounds too good to be true? Wrong you are, Slake... Your Thirst, a Scarborough bottled water company has been producing this 100% absolute quality water for over a year in Toronto. Like a well kept secret, Slake until now was promoted only by word of mouth from satisfied customers. Just ask Wendy, the Director of Mid-Scarborough Childcare Center at Rainbowvillage on Eglinton Ave., and her assistant also called Wendy. Both women are among the finest Canada has to offer. That also means that they are, for good reason, very careful and diligent with responsibilities placed in their trust. When they were approached, a major bottled water company was supplying their daycare. After months of waiting, Slake was finally given the opportunity to run a trial with two coolers and four bottles of water. And that was all Slake asked for --- the opportunity to compete. It was about a week later that Nathan Rogers, founder of Slake, got a call from Wendy, the Director. Nathan will never forget the tone of her voice. It was sweet with excitement, surprise, and satisfaction. "Nathan, this is not about Gloria, she is fine". Gloria is Nathans daughter who goes to that daycare. "You better bring us more water fast, were all out. It went so well with everyone. All the kids are drinking water now. The teachers love it. Mary wants a cooler for her home. Bring us ten bottles." It was sweet soul music to Nathans ears. The daycare now orders twelve bottles weekly and needless to say that the beverage of choice at that establishment is Slake.. Your Thirst. Particularly pleasing to Nathan is that his daughter got recognition amongst the kids at that daycare because of her dad's "Yummy Water", his wife stated. Wendy said: "we have never gone through so much water, not even with other bottled water companies". Maryanne is a teacher in Maple. Her drinking habits have changed and her preferred beverage is Slake. Further she has been noticing the line up at the water cooler when her daughter's friends visit. Yvan and Joan are so prompt and regular, there is no doubt to their satisfaction. Joan said: "I've never had water this good".Carolyn is a real estate agent in Parkdale and Slake has changed her lifestyle. For all the many others not mentioned (for whom we cannot find space in this article), the consensus is the same and the bond is common. Slake is the healthy beverage of choice.

Awareness to the fact that the ultimate beverage for healthy human drinking is of course 100% absolute pure water has been born (a fact on its own account that human beings are 60 to 70% by weight absolute pure water). Indeed one has only to look at the market trend to understand this direction. The market is saturated with all kinds of gadgets promoting point-of-use water filtration and purification. The claim surrounding the effectiveness of these gadgets is another issue altogether. Slake is the ultimate quality as far as drinking water technology at this stage. By definition it is 100% pure demineralized water. Water purification to absolute quality is an age-old human quest. Though absolute pure water is not stored in nature, the natural cycle of water purification is endless. Water evaporates, ascends, leaving behind all substances, and comes down as pure water, aerating with 20% oxygen as it falls as rain or dew. In pristine primordial times, rain or dew was nature's only pure water, until it touches the ground. No longer. Rain or dew is now contaminated with air pollutants.

Distilled water: distillation is the oldest process of purifying water to absolute quality. The procedure is similar to nature's evaporation. Many health stores no longer carry spring or mineral water because of their excessive mineral and TDS contents. These health-conscious stores are now selling distilled water which has a very low TDS, approximately 2 ppm. However, it is now common knowledge that in distilled water, depending on the source, some carbon and radio active substances boil off at the same temperature of steam, and are collected with the steam and remain in the distillate. The major drawback of distilled water is the flat dead taste which is due to the boiling off of the dissolved oxygen in the water.

Reverse Osmosis water: derived and modified from the natural process used by plants. Osmosis water is purified using high pressure through a semi-permeable membrane to a TDS count of 10 ppm or less. The quality of water varies vastly due to many factors such as membrane quality, pre and post filtration setup and general setup. Maintenance and vigilant quality control are of utmost importance when setup as point-of-use with no residual sterilization capacity.

Tap filters, counter-top filters, under-sink filters, and all other point-of-use-filters: have very limited capacity. They are mostly sediments or charcoal / carbon type filters. Tap water and filtered water contain approximately the same level of TDS or at best reduce the TDS by only 10 ppm, which is about 4%. With these gadgets, water (depending on the source) will still contain after their action: sediments (decayed plants and animals etc.), inorganic minerals, chlorine, chemicals (used for cleaning and removing waste), pesticides, fertilizers, herbicides, run-offs and precipitated air pollutants.

Slake is unique because its purification is focused not on the obvious contaminants. At Slake, their knowledge of water is complete. As a result they are able to focus their efforts on those aspects which are not so obvious, which are not so little, but greatly affect and can even compromise the quality of absolute pure water. They know that it is not only enough to reduce the conductivity or TDS level of water in pursuit of the ultimate quality but that it is imperative that the nature of its absolute quality be achieved and maintained. Further to their very rigorous and closed all natural 8-step filtration, purification, and sterilization process, they have sought to simulate the natural events as they occured in primordial environment in the formation of absolute quality water. They ozonate, churn, mix, cascade, and aerate over and over until they have a perfect brew aerated with 20% dissolved oxygen. At Slake, they are constantly looking for ways and means to take their quality one step further and they always keep an ace up their sleeve. Slake is the ultimate beverage at the dawn of quality drinking for healthy living! Nathan Rogers holds a Master's degree in biological sciences with a major in biochemistry and fellowships in microbiology, immunology, and molecular biology. His water plant has been producing Slake for a year and has a customer base of several hundred satisfied customers in Toronto (he refers to them as Slakers). He has just hired a marketing and sales firm to increase his exposure and to highly convert the public into Slakers. He is also looking to open plants in all major cities worldwide and is currently seeking investors for franchising possibilities. Nathan believes that in the near future, when all the public will become fully aware as to the true quality of water, all bottled water will be of absolute quality only and all other waters will cease to exist. Slake is currently sold in 18.9 liter jugs at $7.50 CDN with home delivery service. Cooler rentals are also available. Tours of the plant are available by appointment and water quality tests of consumer drinking water are done free of charge.
