What’s Hiding In Your Drinking Water—And How to Fix It
Switching to one kind of water may be the single most important upgrade you can make.
The following information is based on a report originally published by A Midwestern Doctor. Key details have been streamlined and editorialized for clarity and impact. Read the original report here.
Did you know that most popular water filters don’t remove the worst toxins?
Fluoride and aluminum slip right through standard filters. Even “natural” spring water and “safe” ceramic pans might be hurting you.
So what kind of water should you really be drinking? Switching to one kind may be the single most important upgrade you can make.
Medical researcher
just exposed what’s really in your water—and how it could be silently destroying your health.If you thought choosing the right kind of water was easy, think again. We’re breaking down this article in simple terms.
The water industry is built on hype.
Yes, you read that right. The water industry.
Every few years, a new water gimmick goes viral: structured, energized, alkaline, “luxury” bottles… it never ends.
But most are simply marketing junk.
Thankfully, some tools actually do work—and one in particular stands above the rest.
Some form of water filtration is certainly better than none.
But not all filters are created equal.
If you want to get serious about your health, you need to remove the worst offenders first. Things like fluoride, chlorine, and aluminum have no place in drinking water.
Reverse Osmosis (RO) is the gold standard when it comes to water filtration.
It removes toxins like fluoride and aluminum that most filters miss.
It also breaks water into smaller clusters, helps restore cellular hydration, and improves circulation by enhancing “zeta potential.”
Impressive!
But… What’s zeta potential?!
Zeta potential is the body’s ability to keep particles in the fluids from clumping together.
For example, if your blood starts clumping, circulation slows.
That’s when serious problems begin: strokes, clots, heart arrhythmias, fatigue, cold hands, and even cognitive issues.
Zeta potential is key to good health.
And guess what destroys zeta potential?
Aluminum
Spike protein
Poor quality water
All of these things carry a strong positive charge that disrupts your body’s electrical balance.
That’s why many vaccine injuries, strokes, and heart issues are linked to zeta collapse.
Reverse osmosis water helps because it’s deionized.
It removes many of the positively charged minerals—especially aluminum—that stress the kidneys and disrupt your zeta potential.
But there’s one pretty big catch…
Reverse osmosis water may deplete magnesium over time.
Magnesium is essential for heart health, muscle function, and energy.
And unfortunately, modern diets already fall short when it comes to magnesium. RO water removes what little remains.
So if you drink RO water, consider supplementing with magnesium threonate, malate, or citrate.
Your shower water matters, too.
When chlorine is heated, it off-gasses, and you breathe it in.
Do you take hot or cold showers? While there are many benefits to cold showers… I think most of us prefer them hot!
For people with sensitive throats, chronic coughs, or skin irritation, a chlorine shower filter can be life-changing.
The good news is, they’re cheap and they last a long time.
What about water bottles?
Unfortunately, the aluminum water bottle trend is a health trap.
It’s the latest “green” scam. Celebs are pushing it—and airports are forcing it.
Yes, plastic is bad—but aluminum is worse.
It leaches metal into your water which disrupts zeta potential, and has been linked to strokes, arrhythmias, and neurological issues.
Many airports and airlines (e.g., Southwest) now serve water exclusively in aluminum containers. Yikes.
Sadly, even “natural” spring water isn’t always safe. Some springs are great. But many are not.
High levels of positively charged minerals can destroy zeta potential and have even caused cardiac arrhythmias in long-term users.
Glass storage helps, but you have to be cautious there, too.
Looking for glass not produced in China, make sure you clean them before using, and keep them safe with rubber sleeves.
It’s important to note the biggest hidden source of aluminum.
It’s cookware.
Teflon pans and many “safe” ceramic ones are actually lined with aluminum that breaks down over time.
Even “salt” can be contaminated—because aluminum is added as an anti-caking agent.
It never ends.
So what should you use to avoid aluminum and other contaminants?
Reverse Osmosis filters: AquaTru (tabletop) or under-sink units
Glass water bottles (not made in China, wide mouth, rubber sleeve)
Xtrema ceramic cookware (no aluminum, no Teflon)
Shower filters (e.g., from Multipure)
Here are some things that boost zeta potential:
Hydrogen water (cheap devices available)
Earthing (barefoot contact with ground)
Deionized water + proper electrolytes
Zeta Aid or chia seeds in water
Together, these can improve circulation, energy, and clarity.
Sounds easy enough.
The bottom line?
Your water matters.
Filtered wrong, it can clog your body like sludge.
Filtered right, it can prevent heart disease, clear brain fog, and reverse vaccine injury.
Ignore the trends. Remember: The marketplace promotes what's trendy, not what's healthy.
Trust biology. Protect your zeta potential. It’s the key to vitality. 🔑

RO filter membranes are plastic, and there is a chance for microplastics in their output.
Regarding chlorine in water treatment, chlorine dioxide is often preferred over hypochlorite in water treatment because it is more effective at killing bacteria and viruses, especially in the presence of organic matter, and it produces fewer harmful by-products. Chlorine dioxide does not produce THMs or HAAs. Instead, it breaks down into chlorite and chlorate, which are present in much lower concentrations and are easier to manage. This reduction in harmful byproducts not only improves the safety of treated water but also reduces the environmental impact of the water treatment process. Additionally, chlorine dioxide is less corrosive and maintains its efficacy across a wider pH range compared to hypochlorite.
Chlorine dioxide can also correct rouleaux aggregations of rbc's when consumed at appropriate concentration.
Distillation may be the preferred method for making water for drinking and cooking.
