Len Arcuri (00:01.84)
Hello and welcome to Autism Parenting Secrets. It's Len, and this week we're diving into something that most parents overlook, your home's water. Even if you've got a filter on your sink or fridge, your child is still bathing and brushing in water that could be full of contaminants. And for sensitive or detox challenged kids, that adds up fast. So my guest today is Anna Kate from Healthy Techs.
And I met her at the Autism Health Summit and her passion for helping families create safer homes really stood out to me. So we're unpacking what whole house filtration is, why it matters, and how you can take action. The secret this week is filter water at the source. Welcome, Anna.
Anna Khait (00:50.7)
Hey Len, it's great to be here. God bless all of you. It's an honor to be here.
Len Arcuri (00:55.936)
Well, your passion is undeniable. And I know that was probably your first, quote unquote, autism conference. And I know where you have many solutions that help parents create a more healthy home and water filtration is only one of them. But I wanted to focus on that because that is the one area I get questions more from parents because it's easy maybe to buy a good filter or something that purifies the water that's on the countertop.
but to really do the whole house, which is extremely important. For a lot of parents, that can be daunting. It can sound extremely expensive. So I just know you've dove into this. You've looked at the various options. I know you have some options you're excited about. So I'm gonna hand it off to you to talk more about that problem. And again, whatever you think is worth sharing with our parents to help educate them on why this is an opportunity not to pass up.
Anna Khait (01:52.63)
Yes, well, it's an honor to Len. I know the parents watching your audience, they are well aware of heavy metals in the water. They're well aware of the fluoride in the water, that it's a neurotoxin that slows development. I know you guys all know this. This is why I'm not gonna go into super detailed because you guys all know. But the question is, what is the solution? We have a problem. What is the solution? Because I talk to parents all the time. They have a shower filter for their shower.
But their kids or their babies, they're bathing in this fluoride water, which is going right into their pores, right into their blood, right into their brain, it passes the blood brain barrier. And that's a big, big problem. Now the question is, what is the solution? Right? We're so good. God is good. He gives solutions for those that are really wanting to know and searching the truth. So I am so blessed to have found, um, companies that I work with. So just really quick, our, our umbrella, healthy technologies, we are not glued to any company.
We literally research, vet, pray, fast, meet the owners, go to the manufacturing facilities, talk to the customer service. We always try to find the healthiest and best product in the world. So we have some products made in Italy. Most of our products are made in America. So this whole house water filter is one of the best things you will ever invest in for your home and for your family.
You're right, Lenny, it's a little daunting sometimes. Oh my God, whole house. How much is it going to cost? 20,000, 30,000? No, you don't have to spend $20,000 on a whole house water filter and remove the fluoride, the chlorine, the pharmaceuticals, the heavy metals, the herbicides, pesticides. It's actually, it's around 5,000. But something you want to keep in mind is you can finance it too. There's options to finance, free financing for six months, 12 months, 24 months, 36 months. But let's go into the details. Now you want to...
You want something that's going to be a solution, but get rid of all the problems, right? Not just, there's a lot of companies, buy one of these, you buy 10 of these, you buy another one of these, and it'll maybe, for example, have a carbon filter and remove just chlorine, bad odor, bad taste. But what about the fluoride? What about the pharmaceuticals? Our company is the only one who talks about pharmaceuticals and gets rid of over 95 % of it in the water and...
Anna Khait (04:08.65)
glyphosates, volatile organic compounds, herbicides, pesticides, bacteria that's in the water as well. All of these are contaminants. All of these are carcinogens. Not only leads to cancer, but of course if you're struggling with an autoimmune disease, if you're with heavy metals in your water, I mean it's like how do get away from it? We're being bombarded. Our air is bombarded with all the aluminum in the air. You have people that are being bombarded with bad water, bad food.
Processed food. We even have cookware on our website with the best healthiest cookware. No forever chemicals It's not nonstick which is full of chemicals. So it's all about starting little by little by little You don't have to go the full enchilada and get a whole house water filter You can start with the point of use you can start with our amazing shower filter You can start with our amazing under the sink filter that is not reverse osmosis. It's not gonna make your water acidic You're not gonna waste four out of five gallons of water. It's not gonna by the way, our does not remove
bacteria or pharmaceuticals from the water. So you can start slow if you want to, but at least take initiative to at least start somewhere. You know, I meet parents all the time and they say, well, Anna, a little bit limited budget. I understand. They go, I'll get it next year. And that next year comes by, they don't get it. And the next year comes by, don't get it. You have to make a decision and just do at least something. But you're welcome to call us on our website, healthytext.com. Call us and we're happy to walk you through, explain.
and see what situation you're in so we can best help you. So, and you can, by the way, another side note, you can use coupon code APS for 10 % off and free shipping. And of course, this is for the parents. I mean, we wanna help the autism of parents, but you're right, Light. It was the first time I was an autism event. I was blown away. You guys are all amazing. We've been praying for you for a long time because one of my pastor's grandchild, he's autistic.
And we said we cancel out in Jesus name. He is healed, he is healthy, he is a child of God that we know. I mean, there's so many problems again, but what are the solution? know, number one, the word of God. Number two, all of these healthy products.
Len Arcuri (06:15.526)
Yeah, well, the healthy products are key and there's a lot out there, a lot of options to choose from. So I think even before we dive into that, let's just talk a little bit more about the problem because I think, and we've done several episodes in the past about how important drinking water is, but if you're listening and this is your first time, the key premise of all this is yes, there's toxins everywhere.
And it can feel overwhelming, but with the water especially, which there's nothing more fundamental than water, the key concept is that the water that is coming through the tap, through the kitchen tap, in the bathtub or in the shower, that's coming from your municipality, at least here in the US, right? They'll send you those reports that say, hey, we had the water tested and we passed with flying colors again, but that does not mean that the water is safe. It does not mean that it may have
levels of contaminants that are below some arbitrary threshold. But for your child on the spectrum who may be much more sensitive to harm, what's coming out of the tap is really riddled with all the things that Anna already talked about. Chemicals, pesticides, medications, things that are going into the water system. So that's where ensuring that at the very least that you're drinking purified water is really important. And we've had that discussion several times on this podcast.
I think Anna, you're going to talk more about the benefit for the whole house filtration because again, that's where you're receiving water in the bathtub, in the shower, on your skin, which is the largest organ. in terms of is this a problem or not, the water coming from your municipality is not purified and it's definitely an issue wherever you live, whether it's in the US or likely anywhere in the globe.
Anna Khait (08:07.214)
You're right. Every city municipality is different, but it's also very similar. So it's very similarly, uh, poisoned water. Unfortunately, there's just, depends on the levels of it, you know? So, but here, Len, I never thought I would ever be drinking my filter tap water. I never thought I was going to be bathing it, showering it. I don't want to, but drink it. Are you sure? Cause I always thought water bottles are
So much safer. And then I started doing the research into water bottles. want to touch upon this first because this is a big misnomer that people think, it's more healthier to be with bottled water. Here's the biggest problem. Unfortunately, most people are not aware of this is that bottled water, they have certain parameters that the government puts on every single water bottle company that they have to have, you know, at least, you know, not exceeding this amount of chlorine, not exceeding this amount of flora, not exceeding this amount of
you know, heavy metals and this that. Unfortunately, these companies get vetted once a year. The health department lets them know when they're going to be going to their factory. So they have a heads up. Okay, they're gonna be going to the factory. They do the test. Okay, looks good. Some of these companies, over 100 companies were tested by this independent group, saw that most water bottle companies had far exceeded the limit of what they are supposed to have in their water when it comes to chlorine. People think chlorine, fluoride in my...
bottled water? Yes. They've also found bacteria. Look, if the health department is going to say, I'm coming in next Tuesday, you're going to make sure everything's clean, right? But when they're not around, these people are hovering over it. You don't know if they're sneezing, if they're coughing, what bacteria is in there. I mean, there's bacteria in the water, there's chlorine in the water, there's not only plastics from the bottled water. By the way, I want to just give a little caveat to the audience as well. Stay away from anything that says purified water. Sounds good, looks good, it's not.
Good, purified water is the closest thing that comes to tap water. I'm telling you right now, we've tested a bunch of them. It's very acidic water, it's usually about a pH of four or five, which telling, you don't wanna have your body acidic, okay? It's anti-inflammatory, cancer loves inflammation, yada yada. And I know you guys know that. But purified water in Costco, it's the cheapest brand, you get Costco purified water.
Anna Khait (10:25.918)
It is the worst water you can get. Yeah, you're spending $1.50 on all these bottles, so you're saving money, but you're not saving on your health. What I tell people with the whole house system or even an under the sink filters, but especially for a whole house, you are investing into a healthy environment, a healthy lifestyle. So you're investing into your health. And I ask people, what is your health worth? If you could put a price tag on your health, what would it be worth? Most people would say, right, Len, priceless. There's no price. You cannot.
Buy health. Sure, you can buy some vitamins, some nutrients, but once your immune system is shot, once your body is shot, once you're at a point where you're really in trouble, it's really hard to recover from that. And most people are slowly, slowly, hopefully recovering from it. But a whole house water filter will be the best health investment you will make into your home. Not only is it going to protect your health, you guys, you're going to protect the health of your house as well. The pipes in your home, your
appliances, your washing machine, your laundry machine, you won't have to change them as often. It will literally help the lifespan of not just your house, but your whole family, your kids, your body, your mind, your skin. One of my favorite things is that my skin used to be so dry, And I get this all the time. My hair is so dry, my skin is so dry, yes, because of the chlorine in the water. Now why do municipalities add chlorine in the water? Anyone know? Do you know? The reason why they add chlorine in the water is because of bacteria in the water.
If you live in somewhere like Florida, where I used to live, we have the second worst water in the country. Number one was actually Texas, surprisingly, interesting enough, but Florida was second worst water. Actually, no, was number one worst water in country, Texas number two. But why is Florida number one the worst? Because of all the humidity, all the bacteria. So the city has to put chlorine in the water to what? Kill the bacteria. Unfortunately, you start turning on the shower and you're wanting to take a glass of water and it is smelling like a pool.
Len Arcuri (12:02.342)
Hmph.
Anna Khait (12:23.296)
in your own home. So what do people do? They call the city and they complain, excuse me, my house smells like a pool. Can you please lower down the chlorine? What the city does, because the chlorine is already in the water, what they do, they might minimize a little of the chlorine, but it's already in there. What they do is they add something called ammonia in the water. What does ammonia do? Ammonia, when it binds to chlorine, creates something called chloramine. And chloramine does not have an odor. So they mask that pool smell.
But now you created another carcinogen, which also is cancerous, carcinogenic, right? Chloramine is in the water. So we also remove chloramine, fluoride, pharmaceuticals, and back line. also get rid of some hormones. We get rid of ibuprofen, estrogen in the water, progesterone in the water. We remove caffeine from the water. mean, there is so there's Plan B particles that we found in the water. We remove that as well. So.
It's the best investment you will ever make in your home. Again, we work with your budget, we wanna help you, so you just let us know what you need and we will help you. least you can start somewhere.
Len Arcuri (13:29.06)
Yep. You know, I have to second that Florida water is horrendous, along with just looking cloudy, right? There's so much that's wrong with it. yeah, that's where, doing something, particularly if you're drinking the water, you can't be drinking what's coming out of the tap. And again, yes, you touched on a lot of other fringe benefits, right, to the house itself. But really, the most important is, for that person, particularly now for parents who are listening.
Your child, you're anything like my son, and my daughter loved to take baths and would stay in there a long, long time. So all the more reason to really like think about, okay, how safe is that bath water? Now, the only way you can really know, and even then it's somewhat limited, is if you have the water tested. There are some water lab testing companies out there that are independent, and they could give you a fairly accurate report.
Those tests can be kind of expensive sometimes. again, what's in the water can change wildly from day to day. And I've had one client that I'm currently coaching who had huge issues with their son and they suspected the water was an issue and they had it tested. had the kitchen water tested, the shower, the bathtub. They had their water tested. It came back super clean. And then
they had the intelligence to actually test the hot water coming out of the bath. And that came back with huge high levels of aluminum. So again, and there's some reasons why that might be the case, but neither case, the reason I bring it up is that kids spend so much time in the bath that that's where especially what can a parent do to ensure that that water isn't riddled with metals or some other contaminants.
And that's where, again, if you're filtering water at the source, the title of this episode, you can largely play defense against a lot of what might be coming in. You still have the issue though that you need to understand your piping. And if you live in a really old house with old metal piping, that might be an issue in and of itself. But assuming your piping's good, if you're filtering at the source, you're good to go. And it is an investment, but perhaps not as high as people think.
Anna Khait (15:49.6)
You're spot on. mean that that's exactly right. Look, if you were living on an old, old, old home, you might need to get a whole house filter and a shower filter to catch that heavy metals that may be in the old pipes in your home. Now, most people don't have this problem. Most people just need a whole house filter. That'll take care of all your pipes and you know, that your, your water sources. But you know, when you brought up a really good, great point about testing the water.
Okay, most companies, if you decide and you're like, you know, I need a water filter and you start calling around and we did this whole test, I did this with my whole team too. I every single person call a very well-known water company and I said, ask them what the filters are made of, ask them what they remove and ask them for their lab test results. You know what most companies told us, Len? Our filters are proprietary, we can't tell you what's in there.
Okay, I can understand maybe one or two layers of proprietary. Okay, but what are you made of? Well, we can't tell you. We'll come over your house and we'll tell you. said, click come over. And then when they came over, they still couldn't tell me what was in the filter, but you know what they could tell me? The price. They can tell me how much it costs, how much it is to install. I go, wait, wait, What do you remove? Well, we remove some, which contaminants? Well, we remove how much of it? I don't know. That is not good enough for me and my family. I was vetting and trying to find a company. Len took me over nine.
months to find the company we work with that manufacturer in America. It's the only company. Let me tell you, it's on our website. The only company that gave a six page comprehensive lab test results from independent lab and six pages of everything they've removed and the percentage of it, whether it be 99.8, 99.9, 97.2, 96 points. Everything is flat out for you. Six pages. On top of that, the company tells us exactly what is in the filtration.
By the way, this whole house water filter does not need any electricity. It is strictly just water pressure. Whether you're in city water, even if you're on well water, that's your water pump. It removes so, I mean, I can go on and on. It's all on the website. So I'm not gonna take too much time here, but you wanna always know what is in the filter, what does it remove, and what do they not remove? Because the more you know, the better. So you might, let's say purchase something for 2000, for example, a very well-known company. I'm not gonna say its name.
Anna Khait (18:01.772)
Very well known companies, number one in water filtration in the country. It's about two, $3,000 for the system. You wanna know what their filter is? It's just a basic activated carbon filter, which is great. Activated carbon is good. What does that remove? That removes chlorine, bad odor, bad taste. That's good.
Len Arcuri (18:18.384)
That's basically what a Brita filter does,
Anna Khait (18:20.782)
Exactly right. But what about the fluoride? What about the pharmaceuticals? What about the bacteria? Because you nailed it in that land. For me, I love to take baths. When I was a kid, even more. I loved to just soak. I liked to have a candle on and just relax and just use my little zen time for me, know, me and the Lord and just relaxing, right?
Well, unfortunately you're bathing in something, for example, like, I don't jump into pools. People might think I'm crazy, but when you learn about chlorine and you learn about the carcinogens, I don't go to the pool, number one. Chlorine, number two. People sometimes pee pee in there, use it as a bathroom. But for me, I love to go to ocean. I won't swim unless it's in my own home or in the ocean, you know what I mean? Where it's salt water, minerals, and those are all healthy for you. So, you know, just level by level, but the more you know, the more you'll be able to educate others as well and help your family.
So, you know, start somewhere, don't get overwhelmed. You don't need to know everything about everything, but you do need to know what does the filters contain because we have in our system, an eight stage system. Okay. You have to get a car, activate a carbon. Then you have a KDA 55 filter that removes the heavy metals. We have a DS composite as well. Then we have a proprietary blend. Let me tell you what's in the proprietary blend. Actually. So funny. I tell the company, why don't you tell people what's in the proprietary blend? This is amazing.
zeolites, but also silver. They have silver in the proprietary blend that they don't tell people. go, you crazy? I'm going to tell people. What does silver do? Silver is an anti-microbial agent. So what does that mean? That means it's not that it kills bacteria. It will not allow the bacteria to replicate, to grow. So for example, let's say you take your kids, you know, I don't know, Disney World, or you want to go on vacation, wherever, you know, Florida or Bahamas, you leave for a week or two, you come back with most
whole house water filters, you need to actually throw Clorox. They tell you to, which I don't do Clorox. I don't use any chemicals, but you're supposed to put Clorox down the machine and break down that biofilm that grows in the tank. You don't have to do that with our water filter. You can leave for six months a year. In fact, I have a client in Malibu, they live in the home three months a year. They have our water filters and they don't have to.
Anna Khait (20:31.214)
clean it because why the silver doesn't allow it to replicate. So it's an amazing combination. You can see all of the filters that's actually on the website, healthytext.com, but it's just, it's literally an amazing filter and you will notice the difference. And I come in contact with people that shows all the time, Len, and they come up and go, Anna, I am so thankful. got, you know, I wasn't sure cause it was a pretty decent investment for, for, for us, but we are so thankful. We got it. We love it. I can't tell you how many times I get that in email.
phone call, text message in person at the next event. mean, it's just so rewarding to see their kids are feeling better. Eczema, a lot of kids as well, eczema, they're scratching, they're allergic reactions, they have pimples. There's a lot of different reasons for that, but one of them is, the biggest one is also water. Having water, that you have biocarbonate in the water as well, kids are allergic to it. So it's the best thing you'll ever literally get for your family.
Len Arcuri (21:24.954)
No, again, your enthusiasm comes across loud and clear. So let's talk about, yeah, we won't have the time to go into all the contaminants, let's say, that you want to filter out. But the two I know that are on parents' mind, you mentioned both of them, glyphosate and fluoride are two things that I know many parents are very mindful. How do I ensure that this is not coming into my house? So I know those are two that, again, are two that for sure
are filtered by this whole house system. And then on top of that, there's the issue perhaps that if we're filtering, we might be filtering out essential minerals, positive things that are in the water that we don't want to filter out. So what can you say about those two sides of the equation?
Anna Khait (22:11.374)
Yeah, well glyphosates, we've removed, I'm not allowed to say 100 % because no company is allowed to technically say 100.
Len Arcuri (22:17.126)
It'd be a pretty bold claim if you could say 100%.
Anna Khait (22:20.11)
Yeah, but I will tell you this glyphosates we removed 99.9999 % and you get the drift. Okay, so legally
Len Arcuri (22:28.102)
We're getting, I say, just breathing. So again, 100 % may not be feasible. And maybe you get suspect, anyone who says 100 % on anything. 99.99 sounds pretty good.
Anna Khait (22:36.846)
Exactly. Yeah.
99.9 sounds really good to me too. So you have, know, that aspect that we remove, but regarding your question, well, what was the second part of the question?
Len Arcuri (22:48.186)
The second part is, and I know sometimes there's more like essential minerals that are in the tap water perhaps that you would not like to filter out, right? Which is why some companies, if they sell a filter, they may add something, they may suggest you add drops to add the minerals back.
Anna Khait (23:06.158)
Correct. Yeah, you got it. That's right. The minerals. So what I really love about our system is that we remove the bad, harmful ions and minerals from the water, but we keep in the good ones. We keep in the electrolytes, right? The sodium, potassium, calcium in the water. We don't touch that. Now, if you have very hard water and you have a lot of calcium in the water, you're going to want to get something called like a softener or a saltless conditioner.
A softener, just people know, its job is not to filter water. Its job is just to remove the calcium in the water.
Right. But you would still need a water filter because our, know, contaminants, the fluoride, the pharmaceuticals, the softener doesn't touch. So there's some well people on well that might need a pre filter for the sediment. They might need a whole house filter and then a softener if they have hard water. That's just side note. Again, you can start a little by little by little, but not everyone needs a softener, but let's just talk about the basics. The minerals, we keep the minerals in the water. We do not do reverse osmosis. I used to think, Glenn, that was the best because that was the biggest trend. Everyone was talking about it, but I've been talking about the last two years.
People thought I was crazy. But now people like Dr. Artis, Dr. Judy Mikovits, Dr. Group are now talking about actually RO is not the best. We actually don't recommend RO. And let me tell you, and I've been saying this for years, and finally the doctors are on board because again, I go into the nitty gritty details of, what are the health benefits? What's the pros and cons of each thing? RO, people are not aware, it does remove 100 % fluoride, it does remove 100 % chlorine, that's good. They do not remove pharmaceuticals.
They do not remove bacteria. They do not remove glyphosates. They do not remove herbicides and pesticides, right? On top of that, the water becomes very acidic. So you're, and if you don't remineralize the water, it takes out all the minerals, right? So if you don't remineralize it, you're drinking basically distilled water, which is technically the purest. But unfortunately, if you drink just water with no ions, you're creating something called a hypotonic environment in your bloodstream. And so what does that mean? That means
Anna Khait (25:06.188)
that ions always try to neutralize each other. They try to go from high, hypertonic to hypotonic. So a lot to a little. So it's called osmosis. So the minerals will actually be pulled out of your body into the blood that goes into the kidneys and cleaned, and then it gets pushed out. So what does that mean? That means if you do not have minerals in your water, it will pull those minerals from your body, and you will then release it out of your kidney and out into your urine.
What happens after a while? People start realizing they start having osteoporosis, they start having brittle bones because if you drink that all the time and you don't drink minerals and you don't take electrolytes and you don't remineralize it, you have a big problem. You're creating a massive problem in your body. You'll start breaking down your bones to get that calcium, the sodium, the potassium. And so you want to have mineralized water, which thankfully we do not remove it. We remove only the bad ones. We keep in the good minerals. Great question.
Len Arcuri (26:01.51)
All right. Fantastic. Yeah, no, really just giving that critical thought to what are you filtering out and what are you not filtering out? And again, trying to create an environment in your house that has natural in its most pure form, right? The way God intended. then basically that's the whole goal of playing defense against environmental toxins of all kinds. We're constantly trying to in the home environment, replicate what's naturally available in the natural environment.
Anna Khait (26:30.102)
And actually, you're right. And you know what I forgot to mention? The eighth stage of the filter, I forgot to mention this, it's proprietary. We have a high powered magnet. As the water goes through each stage, there's an eighth stage which pushes the water back up through the system into your house. There is a high powered magnet there. What does that do? That actually repolarizes the water molecules. It will actually also soften the water a bit. So if you have some hard water,
Guess what? You're actually gonna two for one. You're not only filtering, you're also treating it as well. So it's a filter and a treatment system, which is cool. But if you have like very, very hard water, again, I mentioned before, you might need to get a softener, but we do soften as well in the eighth stage. Again, no salt needed, no hard work. You'll notice a big difference in your water quality, the way that it tastes, the way that you shower, the way that your skin feels, your hair feels, and also how you feel even emotionally. You know, not having to scrub everything and be worried all the time about.
fluoride and chlorine and pharmaceuticals and glyphosates and herbicides and pesticides and the pharmaceuticals, estrogen, the progesterone and the water, you will feel safer. It's just such a, look, especially autistic parents, there is a lot of stress. know, I mean, let's be real. I mean, even for normal parents, it's, you know, I should say not normal, but regular, it's stressful. Having kids with these beautiful, special, you know, they're gifted and they're special in their own beautiful, unique way. It can be taxing, it can be stressing. I know that you do coaching and you help.
parents along the way, it's not easy. So the more stress you can take off your back, the more that you don't have to worry about. It's just so nice to not think about, okay, I'm taking a shower, my God, I gotta keep my mouth closed, I don't wanna drink the water. No, it's so nice to take a shower and your mouth is open, your eyes are open, and you feel good coming out of the shower. It's just such a nice feeling to not have to worry and stress about, no, I just washed myself, but I also probably just gave myself cancer at the same time. You don't wanna think about those things, you wanna just.
Enjoy your life. That's why I tell people this is the best investment you will ever make in your life for your family. We will work with your budget. Trust me. We have people that spend a hundred bucks a month, 200 bucks a month, but they have the system that will last them a lifetime. It's so worth it. We'll work with you. Trust me.

Yeah, no, it's all about that balance because you're right. There's a lot, you you watch the news or you read anything. I mean, it's easy to get worked up about all the stuff that's out there that you want to play defense about. all, as parents, know, or not even as parents, as human beings, want to have the healthiest environment to thrive in. And especially for kids on the spectrum, it is even more important. So it's that balance of, hey, I'm going to get informed, which is what this episode is all about. And I'm going to.
take action I feel good about, an educated choice to protect, to better protect, and then kind of forget about it because again, if you're constantly trying to create a 100 % environment, then that will drive you crazy, right? So there's a balance of taking action, what feels right for you, and again, how bad is your water? It's gonna vary from place to place. I would argue there's no tap water that's really acceptable.
But some regions could be much worse than others, are much worse than others. So it's about just making an informed decision, making that investment, and then again, enjoying your life and being present with your child and connecting and enjoying those moments instead of constantly worried about what more can I do? So there is a sweet spot to find. And particularly with water, which again, there's nothing more foundational than water and air, right? mean, and then...
throw food in, but water is so essential, which is why I thought this was a really useful conversation. So I appreciate you sharing all that you know and your enthusiasm. And yeah, I'll hand it off to you. You could tell people more about where they can go and, and again, whatever you think might be useful for them to understand.

Yes, and autistic parents are so aware of one of the biggest contaminants in the water, which are heavy metals, which you don't want your kids to have too much of. mean, some of them have in their blood a lot of heavy metals. And so, and there's so many studies, I'm sure you guys are aware that there was a woman in the eighties who was talking about heavy metals. They thought she was crazy. She forgot her name. Gosh, I wish I knew her name, but I'm sure you guys know her. And she talks about the heavy metals, how they were cleaning it out of the blood system of the kids and they started reacting more, started to communicate more. So, um,
Heavy metals is huge. It's one of the biggest things for autistic kids. You want to make sure you are really staying away from farmed fish. You want to make sure it's wild fish, clean fish, clean food, and clean water. And unfortunately, there's a lot of heavy metals in bottled water. There's a lot of heavy metals in tap water. What is the solution? The solution is for sure to be able to remove the heavy metals, especially out of your home, especially if they're taking baths and all that. And then,
You can also safely drink your tap water once it's filtered. I can help you with that. Anyone that wants to call us again, we're happy to walk you through. We're happy to educate you.
