What You Might Not Know
Most of the water that you drink in the Philippines is Reverse Osmosis Water or Distilled.
It has been purified through an RO membrane which removes all germs, viruses, particles and minerals. It has a Molecular Weight of 18.015
Because it is pure H2O, distilled water has a noticeably flat and dull taste.
Distilled water is "dead water" meaning that it has no benefits to your body.
It has no minerals and can be as low as 4 pH so it will make your body acidic.
It's a common belief in the Philippines that babies should only drink distilled water, this is completely untrue.
The original source of this concept was that distilled water was considered safe compared to tap water in the old days (and even now) as it has guaranteed no virus or germs.
Naturally parents wish the best for their baby and to keep them healthy.
However, a baby needs minerals and alkaline water to stay healthy and fight acidity.
Milk formula has a pH of only 3.5 - 4 and anything under pH 7 makes our blood and body
acidic.
Milk formula with distilled water can actually be dehydrating a baby.
In comparison God made the pH of the milk coming from a mother perfect pH 7.2
How Is Water Absorbed ?
Human cells have no real mouth with lips and tongue. But there is a process called "endocytosis" and this works like the cell's mouth.
Actually endocytosis includes pinocytosis (drinking) and phagocytosis (eating). These processes occur all over the cell membrane, which means that the cell membrane works like like a huge continuous ‘mouth’.
Cells have a lipid (fat) membrane embedded with proteins, called channels, that selectively allow different kinds of molecules to pass in and out.
Two main types of endocytosis are distinguished on the basis of the size of the endocytic vesicles formed. One type is called phagocytosis (“cellular eating”), which involves the ingestion of large particles, such as microorganisms or dead cells via large vesicles called phagosomes (generally >250 nm in diameter).
The other type is pinocytosis (“cellular drinking”), which involves the ingestion of fluid and solutes via small pinocytic vesicles (about 100 nm in diameter). Most eucaryotic cells are continually ingesting fluid and solutes by pinocytosis; large particles are most efficiently ingested by specialized phagocytic cells. (source)
A water molecule has a molecular weight of 18 and is about 0.27 of a nanometer across
(or 2.75 angstroms). (source)
Specifically, water clusters that have clusters of below 70 Hertz are called small-molecule hydration.
What's the SWITCH2o Size?
Water clusters that are between 50 and 55 hertz are considered to be the best water for human absorption.
​
SWITCH2o technology Nano filtration system
reduces any size water clusters to only 53.832 hz.
Tap water, purified water and distilled water generally have the biggest clusters which can be 108 hertz to 500 hertz.
Water this size can't penetrate your cells and deliver the essential minerals which are required for you to stay healthy.
Healthy cells on the other hand gives you energy and a long life.
​
Scientists believe that smaller water clusters can penetrate the human cell nucleus and DNA more quickly and a lot better than bigger clusters, which will improve the function of cell metabolism and participate in the activity of life. After entering the human body, small water molecule clusters constantly activate human cells and can carry more beneficial nutrients, minerals and oxygen to the human body and enter every corner of the human body and cells to make human cells more energetic.
It is widely known that the human body can’t absorb life-essential minerals unless they are dissolved in water (ionic form). That’s why humans only partially absorb minerals from
food – our digestive system has to break it down and turn it into liquids first, losing minerals in the process.
Furthermore, minerals aren’t absorbed into human cells in isolation, they are dependent on each other. For example, magnesium can’t penetrate the cells without the presence of bicarbonate and magnesium can’t penetrate the cells’ mitochondria and provide energy to the ATP (where the cells get their energy from) without the presence of selenium or supported by Zinc.. SWITCH2o has these minerals and more; an all-in-one solution.
​
Magnesium is well known for its part in muscle recovery and is also shown to be an essential mineral in the treatment and prevention of cardiovascular disease.
What Kind Of Water Are You Drinking Today?
The Summary Of It All
SWITCH2o may just be the healthiest option for drinking water in the Philippines.
Available to you and your family at a lower price than most branded water in the market.
​
We do not know of any other supplier who conveniently delivers Alkaline Mineral Water to your home.
Our water will Super Hydrate you and provide you with all the minerals your cells need to stay healthy.
It will deliver minerals straight into your cell structure due to our small size water particles fueling alkaline water which helps detoxifying your body providing you with more energy on a daily basis.​
​
There are so many minerals in SWITCH2o
it's like "drinking your vegetables".
When all of SWITCH2o minerals are present with its near perfect size molecule cluster of 53.832 hertz, it means that SWITCH2o life-essential minerals are 100% absorbed into every cell of your body.
No other known water to us can do this. (see an illustration video)

We Are Here To Make A Change
SWITCH H2o is here to make a change to the world by helping the less fortunate to have access to clean drinking water.
​
2 billion people lack access to safely managed drinking water at home.
Of those, 1.2 billion people have basic drinking water services.
It's very hard to comprehend.
Millions of children and adults are walking miles every day just to get drinking water and in most cases this water is not clean and lead to diseases and ultimately death.
A while ago The Wall Street Journal covered a story about this topic and since then it got even worse.
One of the Missions of SWITCH2o is to help the less fortunate to have access to our water by building solar powered, off grid water access points in close proximity to where people live.​
