Structured vs. tap water: Which is healthier for children?
As parents, we all want what is best for our children. What do you reckon is best in terms of water? I grew up drinking water straight out of the hosepipe, but I am aware that the water quality is different now. There are definitely more chemicals present in tap water these days. But then again, it's also got minerals. Would you say that tap water would be more effective at boosting an immune system or structured water, and why? Asked a year ago

Will vortexing water remove all nutrients from my child's water?
Should I be worried that vortexing water will remove all of the essential nutrients from kid's water? I bought a vortex fountain, not only to satiate my son's need to make a tornado vortex but also because I thought it was aesthetically pleasing. But now, I find myself worrying that maybe this was not a good idea in terms of nutritional value. Am I worrying for nothing?Asked a year ago

Does magnetizing water remove contaminants and essential nutrients for kids?
So apparently, magnetizing water is better than tap water? How does this work? Are there any benefits to giving my young ones (6 and 4) magnetized water? They already drink a lot of tap water, although I don't really feel comfortable with it because of the chemicals they use to remove contaminants, and sometimes we still get warnings from the city council when the water isn't safe to drink.Asked a year ago

Do I need to remineralize structured water before I serve it to my kids?
I was told that structured water would keep my two kids hydrated for longer and that it will serve them well during their sports matches. However, I'm not so sure about this structured water stuff. Does it still have minerals, or would I need to add something more to it? Asked a year ago

Does magnetizing water give it a fresher smell and taste for kids?
Whenever I give my son a glass of water, he pulls up his nose and says 'yuck.' Apparently, he doesn't like the smell of it. He says it's stinky. I've tried adding flavor to the water and steeping lemons or oranges in it, but he still doesn't like it. He drinks a lot of tea with milk, but I know this isn't enough for hydration. I try to stay away from bottled juice because of its sugar content. I then read about the benefits of magnetizing water and wanted to know if it would improve the smell and taste of it for my boy.Asked a year ago

Will structured water boost my child's immune system?
I'm wondering whether structured water holds more nutrients and whether it may boost my daughter's immune system. She's almost 2 years old and no longer drinks milk from me but readily drinks water. I'm looking for ways to boost her immune system because ever since she's been going to playgroup, she's constantly getting sick. I understand that it's because she's exposed to new germs, but is there a way I can use water to boost her immune system?Asked a year ago

Does the taste of structured water encourage a child to drink more?
H guys, I've been struggling to get my son to drink water. He's 3 years old and he'll only take a small sip whenever I offer him a bottle of water, and if I don't offer it, he won't drink it. I think it may have to do with the flavor. I suspect that it may have to do with the taste. How does structured water taste? Do you think a kid would like it more than tap water? Asked a year ago

Is the tap water provided by the city of Flint safe to drink?
Hi guys, I moved from NYC to Flint for work purposes, and I drank tap water here for the first time. It tasted awful, almost like metal. Is it just because I'm not used to the quality of tap water supplied here, or is there something wrong with their water filtration or purifying process? Asked a year ago
