Clean Water and Child Development
By Jana Jansen
A child's body is not fully developed till that child is well into his teens. During those years numerous air borne and food borne contaminants are ingested into the child's body. Under normal circumstances.. an abundance of water taken into the body would help the liver and kidney clear those contaminants from the system. However.. if the water itself is contaminated.. it only adds to the problem.. causing the liver to become ineffective in doing its job because it is called on to clear the contaminants in the water out of the system .. toxins that can cause damgage to the liver. The immune system is all important in protecting the body in its entirety... fighting off bacteria and viruses. In the development years, each bacterial or viral infection builds the immune system so it is able to function at the high level needed as the child grows. If in the developing years this system is exposed to chlorine and lead and toxins from chemical contaminants, the immune sytem is compromised and its ability to detoxify the body is lessened. Many doctors feel the rise in the number of childhood illnesses such as cancer, leukemia, asthma and allergies is partly due to the exposure of the body in the developing years to these toxins. Children take in about three times the amount of water as an adult on a ratio of amount of water to weight so are ingesting many more contaminants as well and their bodies are very susceptible to all of them in those developing years. The best way to promote good health for children .. and the easiest .. is to make sure they have clean healthy water to drink at all times along with their healthy nutrional foods. Clean water and healthy child development go hand in hand.
