Naturally Alkaline
With a pH of 9.3, WellSprings water is highly alkaline. Nineteenth century eclectic physicians recognized the value of consuming and bathing in alkaline water. Modern science concurs that an alkaline blood pH (and consuming alkaline water) improves efficiency in tens of thousands of enzymatic reactions required by the body on an hourly basis to maintain health and vitality. Where a growing number of businesses in the United States and Europe are promoting proprietary machines that delivery alkaline water, WellSprings is blessed with naturally alkaline, artesian, mineral hot springs water.
Naturally Antimicrobial
Alkalinity discourages viral, bacterial, and fungal growth and helps to explain the bacteriostatic and bactericidal properties of WellSprings’ water. Mineral water, for example the ocean, has been revered throughout time for fighting skin disease and promoting wound healing. WellSprings’ water’s unique mineral and salt contents – rich in sulfur - discourages microbial proliferation and overgrowth. And like the ocean, WellSprings’ water is rich in both sodium and chloride, as evidenced by the buoyancy of soakers and bathers. The synergistic antimicrobial effects of high alkalinity and mineral content have allowed WellSprings to avoid harsh chemical additives, such as chlorine and bromine, in order to maintain cleanliness, freshness, and safety. After years of meticulous research performed by WellSprings scientists and staff, State of Oregon Environmental Health permitted WellSprings to remove itself from the chlorine standard.
