Resolution reality check: most New Year’s resolutions are hard to maintain and fade within a few months of making them. However, hydration is a goal that can be sustained and powers all other ones. But not all water is created equal. Tap water often contains invisible occupants, PFAs, microplastics, and heavy metals. If you want to transform your health this year, you don’t need a plan, you need better water. To achieve this, you need a high-performance ceramic water filter that doesn’t just sift out dirt, but actively protects your biology.
Hydration is the Ultimate “Lead Domino”
When forming habits, a “Lead Domino” is the only action that carries enough momentum when knocked over to topple a series of other challenges. Hydration is the ultimate lead domino because it is the biological prerequisite for almost every metabolic process in the body.
Proper hydration, usually consisting of around 64 ounces of water a day, is critical for maintaining a healthy body. Staying hydrated helps eliminate “brain fog” and mid-afternoon slumps. For those who are physically active, water helps with joint health and muscle recovery.
Creating a goal of staying hydrated for the new year is a “low friction” win. Behavioral psychology suggests that habits stick when they are easy. Drinking a glass of water takes minimal effort. Completing one healthy act (drinking a glass of water upon waking) creates a consistency chain. Once you’ve done one “healthy” thing for the day, it is easy to make a string of healthy choices.
Securing Your Stream: Ceramic vs Carbon Water Filter
Now that we have an achievable goal in mind, it’s time to ensure that your means of obtaining it are safe. Let’s break down why you need to secure your stream.
There are many invisible contaminants in your tap that you are probably unaware of. Carbon filters are no longer enough for modern threats in your tap water. These threats include:
PFAS (Forever Chemicals): a large group of man-made chemicals that have been linked to health issues like thyroid disease, high cholesterol, cancer, and immune system impacts.
Microplastics: tiny plastic pieces under 5mm that cause significant environmental and health concerns.
Fluoride and Heavy Metals: These include lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium. They pose health risks including neurological issues, cancer, and skeletal problems.
So, what is the smartest choice to eliminate these threats? Enter the Coldstream FTO Plus! This ceramic water filter has the capability to remove fluoride, toxins and organics (FTO) within a single cartridge. It also has high performance rates for removing:
PFAS/PFOS
Bacteria and Cysts
Lead
Pharmaceuticals and Hormones
The Coldstream FTO Plus ceramic filter is also a huge win for the environment. This filter has a lifespan of 6 months or 1,500 liters per filter. One single filter saves thousands of single-use plastic bottles over the year.
