It’s vital that you find clean water. Dr. Sauer, in
his study, “Relationship of Water to the Risk of
Dying,” made a surprising discovery. He found
that as total dissolved solids (TDS) increase in
a water supply, so does the number of chronic

diseases in the population using that supply.
Therefore, to be a super beverage, water must
be low in TDS, and here’s why. Cl As Na Cd

Purified water has had all the solids and
impurities taken out, while spring water has a
wide range of purity levels, depending upon the Nitrates Metals

rocks it passes over. When tested for TDS, the
results show the amount of inorganic minerals
that the spring water contains. TDS figures can
range from 18 (great!) to 247 (not so good).
Dissolved solids can be chlorides, sodium,
arsenic, cadmium, nitrates and metals.
