    Flint Water Crisis: An Overview<\/h2>\n

    The Water Crisis in Flint, Michigan<\/h3>\n

    \"flint\"<\/p>\n

    In April of 2014, the city of Flint changed its water source from the treated Detroit Water and Sewage Department water to water from the Flint River in order to save some money.<\/p>\n

    However, the water from the Flint River was very corrosive due to a high chloride concentration. This caused the lead from the old pipes the water traveled through to leach into the water supply and poison thousands of men, women, and children.<\/p>\n

    The result? The lead-poisoned water became unsafe and dangerous to drink, threatening the health and wellness of Flint\u2019s residents. To add insult to injury, town officials continued to tell residents that the water was indeed safe to drink!<\/p>\n

    The water crisis in Flint left many people scrambling for better ways to protect their families\u2019 health, while also shedding some serious light on unaddressed water quality issues across the nation.<\/p>\n

    Flint residents began to wonder: How they could create their own clean and pure water supply in the comfort of their own home?<\/p>\n

    One option would be to use a premium water ionizer that includes two filters.<\/p>\n

    These machines are currently installed in 1 in 5 households in Asia\u2026but could a water ionizer be a good option for Flint, MI residents?<\/p>\n

    Let\u2019s take a closer look below.<\/p>\n

    What Is a Water Ionizer?\u00a0<\/h3>\n

    \"water<\/p>\n

    A water ionizer works hard<\/a> to filter your tap water that is then converted into alkaline water by the process of electrolysis.<\/p>\n

    Using heavy-duty ultra-filters<\/a>, a water ionizer can remove harmful contaminants and bacteria from your tap water.<\/p>\n

    In fact – one premium water ionizer (Tyent) even has special dual filters that can remove 99.9% of lead and 99.9% of Chromium-6<\/a> <\/strong>from the water.<\/p>\n

    A water ionizer filter straight up beats a Brita filter, any day of the week! In fact, a Brita-type filter gives many people a false sense of hope because it doesn\u2019t filter out many harmful contaminants.<\/p>\n

    What\u2019s more\u2026ionized alkaline water has a higher pH level than regular water, bottled or tap \u2013 capable of producing a plethora of health benefits<\/a> that Flint\u2019s tap water is missing.<\/p>\n
