FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between osmosis and reverse osmosis?
Osmosis is nature’s own process, where water automatically seeks out impurities and salt to equalize a concentration. Reverse osmosis (RO) turns this process 180 degrees. Using mechanical water pressure, the impure water is instead pressed through an ultra-tight membrane, so that the impurities are sorted out, and only the 100% pure water comes through.
How does a reverse osmosis membrane work?
The membrane acts as a sieve at the molecular level. The pores in the filter are extremely small – down to 0.0001 microns. It is so small that virtually only pure water molecules (H₂O) can physically pass through. Bacteria, viruses, lime, PFAS and other impurities are simply too large and are effectively retained.
Doesn’t reverse osmosis remove the "good" minerals from the water?
Yes, the system removes almost everything, including inorganic calcium and magnesium. However, it is a widespread myth that we need minerals from our drinking water. The human body is biologically designed to absorb its healthy, organic minerals through food (vegetables, nuts, whole grains, etc.) – not from inorganic stone and lime residues in tap water.
What is the primary function of water in the body, if not to provide minerals?
Water’s most important function is hydration and transport. It delivers fluids to your cells and flushes waste products out of your body. The purer and more free of foreign substances your water is, the better and more efficiently it can perform this vital cleansing process in your body.
