World's First and Only Anti-Aging Water Filtration System

Endorsed by Hippocrates Health Institute

Endorsement Of The Wellness Water Filters

 

The famous Hippocrates health Institute installed their first Wellness Filter® in June of 2000, replacing Reverse Osmosis previously used by patients. Since the full application of the Wellness Filter system here at the Hippocrates health Institute was attained, there have been significant scientific signals that its water’s anti-oxidant properties, accelerated detoxification effect and super hydrating effect are greater than any other we have ever observed. The majority of this data are derived from dark field microscopic profiles of patient blood when they first arrive at Hippocrates and after three weeks of drinking Wellness Filter water. These profiles clearly indicate that the user’s cells increase their electron frequency causing electromagnetic shield effects. This deters free radical damage...causative of immune weakening and dysfunction. Further, we have noted an increase in red blood cell counts and a slight increase in hemoglobin levels through the before and after blood profile. Approximately 40% of the patients describe a heightened level of energy after three to five days of exclusive ingestion of Wellness Filter water and the raw juices applied in our program. Our observation and research will continue and in the future we hope to utilize the Wellness technology, as our Japanese counterparts do, to treat the water in our therapeutic pools. We believe that the Wellness Filter system offers users a level of quality and benefit unavailable anywhere else in the world. We enthusiastically grant it our Hippocrates seal of approval. Sincerely, Brian Clement Executive Director of Hippocrates health Insititute

The Wellness MG-III Whole House Water Purification Unit

This is the ultimate water filtration and enhancement system for the home, office or commercial application. Imagine having purified (better-than-bottled-quality) water available from every faucet, shower and toilet in the house. The Wellness Home¨ treats all of the water entering your residence and ensures you that it will protect your home and family from pollutants and unwanted tampering with the water supplies. It is designed to work on both municipal and well water.You will be amazed at the beneficial effect this water has on your skin and hair with just one bath or shower. You will also discover why some of the finest restaurants in America use Wellness Filtered water for cooking and table water.

Unlike conventional water filters, the Wellness Filter¨ has a permanent filter media which is regenerated by periodic backwashing. As a result, it does not require expensive replacement filter cartridges and the owner is spared the concern and expense of maintenance, chemicals and replacement parts. The Wellness Filter¨ employs mechanical and absorptive filtration and water enhancement by utilizing six types of natural filtering media, arrayed in nine treatment layers. This regeneration feature will give the average user continuous use for up to 20 years at a cost of less than 5 cents per gallon.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Purification - provides a broad spectrum of purification including chlorine, chlorination byproducts, organics, heavy metals and radioactive compounds.
• Automatic - eliminates the need for replacement cartridges, salt, chemicals and routine servicing. The Wellness Home¨ automatically backwashes itself each week while you sleep. The backwashing purges the filter of accumulated pollutants and revitalizes itself for years of maintenance-free use.
• Enhancement - contains the patented enhancement media that is the signature of all Wellness Filter products. The enhanced water will improve your home in ways that you might never realize.

Some of these include:

• Protects your expensive bath and kitchen fixtures from spotting and staining.
• Enhances the cleaning actions of soaps and detergents in your laundry and kitchen.
• Reduces bacterial build-up in your toilets.
• Reduces the presence of harmful fungus in your bath and shower.
• Enhances the flavor of foods, beverages and ice.
• Promotes healthier plants and grass if used on your irrigation system.
• Economical - provides better-than-bottle-quality water throughout the house for less than the cost of buying two bottles of packaged water each day from your grocery store. You only pay the initial cost of the unit plus installation and this eliminates the inconvenience of monthly service calls, salt, chemicals and maintenance.

Water the Way Nature Intended It

What is in the Filter Media?

Water Purification

The first step to create healthy water is to cleanse it of unwanted impurities. The Wellness process uses a variety of filtration media to achieve this and, unlike reverse osmosis or distillation, Wellness retains beneficial, acid buffering minerals including magnesium, calcium and potassium.

These minerals are always found in natural springs and they are a key requirement for healthy water.

SPG Silica

 

The primary filtration medium is SPG Silica, a specially processed volcanic sand. In the Wellness Filter SPG plays a dual role as a protective barrier and as an active agent in the enhancement process. SPG has a micron rating that varies from 0.5 microns to 3 microns and is designed to:

• Mechanically filter asbestos, dirt, rust, and sediment
• Enhance water purity and taste

SPG is used in the Kitchen and Home systems only. It restricts flow rate too much to be utilized in the Shower and the enhancement effects are only used for drinking.

KDF 55 & 85

KDF^® is a high-purity, granulated copper and zinc-based alloy that treats water based on the principle of REDOX (Oxidation-Reduction). KDF's induces an electro-chemical reaction in which electrons are transferred between molecules.

Many harmful contaminants are changed into harmless components. Free chlorine is changed into chloride (salt). Heavy metals such as Copper, Lead and Mercury react and are more easily captured by carbon or silica. KDF enhances filtration performance by:

• Extending carbon life & reducing maintenance
• Reducing many contaminants including chloramines and heavy metals

KDF's REDOX activity also creates an environment that's deadly to some micro-organisms and interferes with the ability of others function. KDF is used in the Wellness Shower and Home systems only. Thanks to Wellness dual carbon stages it is not required in the S-III.

Organic Coconut and Activated Cargon

Carbon is the world's oldest filtration method known being recorded in both ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia where it was used to remove basic contaminants, odors and to improve taste. Carbon is the perfect material for removing chlorine and other organic chemical compounds and comes in many different grades according to the contaminant needing to be removed.  Wellness uses both Organic Coconut and Activated carbon to protect against a wide range of chemicals, often reducing them to non-detectable levels.

Some of the contaminants treated include:

• Chlorine
• Chloramines
• Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
• Trihalomethanes (THMs)
• Taste and Odor
• Heavy Metals

Additionally, the carbon used in the Wellness S-III cartridge has been tightly packed into a block with a rating of 1 micron absolute, allowing for effective Cyst & Asbestos treatment.

Wellness Enhancement - The Technology

Wellness enhancement technology was first introduced in the form of a consumer water purification system (the "Wellness Filter") by Wellness founder, Haru Naito, over twenty years ago.  This system has been acclaimed for its ability to induce into water certain unique properties that improve or enhance water's already vital role in life. Specifically, the technology can be used to design water that exhibits the following properties:

• Higher rates of transmissivity to make it more readily absorbable by humans, animals and plants
• Reduced ions for a greatly improved and natural antioxidant effect
• Higher Solubility, making water 'wetter'
• Additional trace minerals that enhance cellular and biological function and stabilize pH
• Natural resistance to the growth of harmful bacteria and fungi

How does the Wellness process create healthier water for you to enjoy at home?

Stage 1 - Magnetic Resonance Activation

The first sub-stage utilizes a patented magnetic induction stage that drops the surface tension of the water and increases the solubility. This process is also known as magnetic structuring of water and is well documented. This is the stage that significantly increases the transmissivity and solubility for the water.

 The 'Resonant Activation' zone

 The 'Resonant Activation' zone

 

 Regular tap water   Wellness structured water

Water with an increased level of solubility is able to hold an increased level of dissolved substances in it or prevent existing dissolved solids from plating out (anti-scaling). The combined effect is a super-hydrating water that will accelerate its transport (and whatever is dissolved in it) through membranes into the body as well as out of the body.

Stage 2 - Far-Infrared Antioxidants

The second sub-stage consists of a proprietary ceramic media that induces reduced or negative ions into the water. This material is classified as a Far-Infrared Emitting Ceramic and is made of a proprietary blend of volcanic media. Far-Infrared Ceramics convert thermal or mechanical energy into far-infrared energy. Several manufacturers are now selling specialized therapeutic saunas in which the heat radiators are made of far-infrared ceramics. Wellness, however, uses these proprietary ceramics to ionize water that is placed into contact with the media.

Depending on the formula for the ingredients used to make the ceramic, the concentration of negative ions produced can be controlled within a specific range. This aids in the production of certain water properties for specific applications.

Stage 3 - Mineral Stabilization

The third stage incorporates rare igneous stones known as Bakuhan™ and Taicho. Bakuhan is the only mineral ever to be certified by the Japanese Ministry of Health as possessing natural medicinal qualities. These rocks elute into water certain trace minerals that have been shown to have a therapeutic effect on arthritis and circulation, and to accelerate the healing of burns. These minerals also fill the "buffering capacity" of water, creating an alkaline effect in your body. It is important to note that pH and alkalinity, while related, are not the same thing and your water's pH will vary depending on the mineral content of your source water.

Taicho™ stone is noted for inducing natural anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties into water. Wellness has tested the properties of these minerals in several agricultural applications and found that the water stimulates plant growth while retarding fungus.

Taichoseki is a proprietary media used in all Wellness Filters¨. On December 15, 1990, the Kitazato Medical School of Public Health in Tokyo, having found that it greatly inhibits the growth of fungus and bacteria, approved Taichoseki mineral stone as a natural disinfectant . The Medical School's studies found that water treated by Taichoseki mineral stone slows down and even stops the growth of fungus and bacteria, including staphylococcus aureus, bacillus subtilis, aspergillus niger, myrothecium verrucaria, trichophyton interdigitale, and candida albicans. This mineral also removes iron, cadmium, and many harmful substances in tap water.

Bakuhanseki is a proprietary media used in all Wellness Filters. On October 15, 1995, the Japanese Government's Ministry of Health, Drug Approval Division, gave their approval of the bakuhanseki stone as an approved medicine. The stone is approved for medical purposes in powdered form (oral or skin application), dissolved in water, and for use in water filters for bathing and drinking. The Ministry of Health uses Wellness Filter¨ water in their hospitals and in many of their approved health bathing spas. (Note: Because the Bakuhanseki mineral stone is designated as a medicine, treatments in health spas are covered by Japanese Government medical plans.) The Bakuhan mineral adjusts the water to a stable alkaline pH, increases dissolved oxygen, removes harmful substances and enhances the taste of the water. It will also remove lead, mercury, and chromium from tap water. It imparts trace Angstrom size minerals (silica, potassium, and magnesium).

Recent Wellness Filter Studies

Seacoast Christian Academy - Welness Filter Hydration Study

In 2005/2006, Wellness Enterprises supported a study by The Results Project at the Seacoast Christian Academy, Jacksonville, Florida... a private school. The study was confined to 165 children grades 1 to 6. The focus of the study was to see if the performance of the students could be positively influenced if good nutrition and hydration was introduced to the students.

Results showed a statistically significant improvement in all seven categories monitored. What was physiologically significant was the number (88% reduction) of children that were able to stop taking mood controlling drugs like Ritalin. In addition, the overall increase in grade point average was considered impressive by the school faculty.

Agricultural Studies

Texas A & M Time Lapse Gladiolus Study - In 2005, Dr. Dwayne A. Suter, Professor Emeritus at Texas A & M University, conducted a comparative analysis on the effect of using Wellness Enhanced water versus filtered and tap water to grow gladiolus bulbs. The results were substantial, and the study was replicated in 2006 comparing Wellness Enhanced water to additional filtered and enhanced waters. To emphasize the difference of our water, Wellness took time-lapse photographs throughout the study and have compiled a video demonstrating the growth of each bulb.

Idaho Dairy Study  - An independent dairy study was conducted over a 10-month period in Idaho using a 3000-head dairy farm. The dairy cows, which had been monitored carefully for production and health for several years, were switched from normal well water to well water treated by a special agricultural version of the Wellness Filter®. The water was not purified but only enhanced using Wellness' proprietary technology. The daily milk production was monitored as was the somatic cell count in the milk (an indication of the general health of the cow - i.e., the higher the count the more infection the cow has). After the study was concluded, the herd's average daily milk production was seen to increase from 72 lbs/cow/day to 78 lbs/cow/day - a dramatic 8.3% increase. The somatic cell count also dropped from an average of 200,000 cells/cc to approximately 100,000 cells/cc - a very dramatic 50% reduction. See figure to the right. This study was repeated on four other dairies over a two year period with similar results.

    Idaho Potato Study - Potatoes in the US are generally harvested in September and October and stored in large enclosed buildings or bunkers. The potatoes are kept in the dark with their original dirt still on the skin and they are ventilated with 100% humidity air. The potatoes continue to live throughout the winter and spring and are extracted and delivered to the market as market needs require. Because of the highly moist and dark conditions, such potato facilities suffer high loses (12% to 25%) in potatoes due to mold, rot and fungus. A two-year study was conducted during which Wellness Filtered water was used to replace the well water that was normally sprayed into the ventilation system of a large potato storage facility (containing 12.5 million Idaho potatoes). A controlled facility of similar size was tested with ordinary well water immediately next to the test facility. Prior to the introduction of a special agricultural version of Wellness Filter® water, the fungal spore count in the facility was around 600,000 active spore counts/cubic foot. Two weeks after changing the source water to Wellness Filter Water, the count dropped 4,000 counts/cubic foot.. a 99.3% reduction. After one full year of monitoring and counting every damaged potato, the special Wellness system (marketed under the name of Agripurifier) was observed to reduce the fungal losses to less then 4% -- a significant drop. The losses in the controlled facility adjacent to the test facility were 20%.

The improvement in our water quality has been dramatic. I didn't realize that there was anything wrong with it until I tasted Wellness Water. Our customers have noticed and have made unsolicited comments about their drinking water and ice cubes. Our chef, Dale Miller, is one of fifty-five Certified Master Chefs in the U.S. Dale has noticed that his sauces taste better and his pastries look better. Our coffee tastes better as well. He feels so strongly about the Wellness Filter¨ that he will be recommending it to the Culinary Institute, his alma mater. The quality of our operation has been dramatically improved. Dishes, pots and pans, glassware, and silverware don't spot. The Wellness Filter¨ has all but eliminated this problem. The cost savings has to do with my confidence that all of the fixtures that have water running through them will last longer due to the filtered water's cleaning effect. The same is true of our pipes. The Wellness Filter¨ has now become an integral part of our tradition of excellence.
Brad Bronstein, President, Jack's Oyster House, Albany, New York
~~
Our chef reports better tasting stocks, pasta, and shrimp. Rice and vegetables are brighter and tastier due to this filter. Our dishwashing machine uses less chemicals and steamer equipment performs better. Our coffee distributor noticed that the machine required less maintenance and customers report better tasting coffee as well as tastier drinks. Our dishes are cleaner and silverware free from spots. Our ice machines and steamers require less cleaning. We save on chemicals used in our washing machines, and fuel consumption to operate hot water tanks has been lowered. Towels are softer and smell better due to the water conditions. We have eliminated our expensive water softening system and estimate that the unit will pay for itself in only a few months. We have four operations all having various water conditions and we have ordered Wellness Water units for each operation. Maybe that says it all.
Martin Patton, President, Cathedral Farms, Inc.
~~
We have experienced the Wellness Filter¨ for about a month and the results are incredible. In steaming or boiling of vegetables and legumes as well as the sauce reductions, products maintain the basic flavor and aroma a lot better. Vegetables and salads retain crispness and colors much better after the washing. The Wellness Filter¨ has improved the quality of our operation from cooking to cleaning with prospects that, in the long run, the filter will prove to have improved the life and maintenance of pipes, water taps, and drains. We are very happy with our decision to install the Wellness Filter¨ at San Domenico.
