All too often, clean drinking water is taken for granted. The water flowing from your tap may not be the ideal for your health or the health of your loved ones.

I always recommend knowing what is in your water supply. This is public information and unfortunately, most residents are unaware that water quality reports are available to the public which it serves.

Did you know that water utilities must test their water processes and facilities several times an hour? Even so, boil alerts are constantly occurring throughout the U.S. alone!

Be sure to ensure that your emergency drinking water supply is:

  • replenished every 6-12 months
  • strategically placed, and
  • readily accessible

Minimum daily requirements to maintain adequate hydration levels for an adult is approximately 64 ounces or 1/2 gallon of water a day. In general, an adult should be consuming 1/2 gallon of water a day. A portion of the daily water content can be consumed via fruits and vegetables, as well as juice and other foods. Individual requirements may vary, so please consult your local healthcare practitioner for specific advice.

Stephanie has great resources available on her site…for FREE! Access them HERE.
