Today it is possible to choose among different ways to drink pure water, but what kind of water can we really trust? Although bottled water appears completely free from bacterias, a nonprofit organization from Washington called Orb Media found out a 93% of microplastics inside these bottles which everybody drinks. Another adopted solution is drinking tap water which seems to be clean in many parts of the country but, in some specific cases, caused several issues due to its water cycle even though there are many water checks and aqueducts’ depurations. Water is a brain which collects every single touched molecule, and if it is in contact with fertilizers, pesticides, etc…, water will be a chemical substances’ cocktail. 

The latter solution on our problems is a domestic depuration. The most common one is the filter jug depuration which, in most cases, releases toxins in the filtered water. This happens because the activated coal and sand filter is wrapped by an expensive plastic packaging which makes people forget to change it. This is the reason why a natural depuration is the best way to clean your water, a depuration make with disposable materials such as Moringa Oleifera’s seeds (an african plant which purifies murky waters from toxins and metals though the flocculation system), rice husks and coconut fiber (powerful filters which remove completely Iron and Manganese from water).
