McClellan Mountain Springs issue under ambient pressure from one of the largest and deepest aquifier in northern California. We have used oxygen isotopic analysis and total absorbed nitrogen to determine that our spring water has not been subjected to light for many centuries. At over 1.3 million gallons of flow per day (just one of many springs in the area), it is easy to determine that our spring water has been circulating inside the earth long before Europeans set foot upon the continent. Pressure, cold temperature, pressurized mineralization (especially with the vital minerals potassium and magnesium), and continuous subterranean movement for hundreds of years prior to surfacing at McClellan Mountain, high above the "Lost Coast", all contribute to a most active and energized water with a high hydration potential.
In his book on the importance of adequate hydration to human health, "Healthy Water for a Longer Life", Dr. Martin Fox outlines his forty years of "hydration therapy" and the spectacular results that thousands of his patients experienced simply by drinking a specific amount of pure water each day for at least 30 days. The formula is simple: start with your body weight, divide your weight by two, and drink that number of ounces of water each day. For example, if your body weight is 160 pounds, you would be adequately hydrated by drinking 80 ounces, or about 5 16-oz/.5 liter bottles per day.

Over 80 percent of Dr. Martin Fox's patients reported significant reduction of a variety of symptoms simply by sticking to a 30-day hydration therapy regimen. In many cases, his patients responded more positively to hydration therapy than the control group, which received prescription medication only without hydration therapy.

Much research has been done since Dr. Martin Fox's hydration therapy was initiated over forty years ago. The simple conclusion has been reached that maximum hydration in the body is one of the most important indicators and contributing factors to optimal cellular functioning. Pure spring water tends to be "active" in moving nutrients and metabolites into the cells as well as flushing away cellular waste products. Simply think of "active" or "energized" water as white-water cascading over a large waterfall; while "inactive", "de-energized", or "depleted" water is much like water standing in a stagnant pond.

Because we drink many types of fluids, we tend to make the false assumption that all fluids hydrate equally. Actually, caffeinated beverages, soft drinks, alcohol, and some ultra-purified, distilled, and "tap" waters actually lower total body and cell hydration, which reduces metabolic activity at the cellular level. Water that is "active", such as most good spring water, maximizes the cellular hydration potential and is vital for cellular metabolic efficiency.

Worldwide clinical studies are concluding that drinking adequate amounts of "active" water (like that from a good spring source) has demonstrated positive effects on health factors as diverse as athletic performance, cognitive ability, and immune function.

Active, energized spring water is the ultimate delivery system for cellular nutrients and removal of cellular waste products. You need to know the SOURCE of your water to be able to evaluate its hydration potential. HYDRATION POTENTIAL is vital to good health. In the near future, all bottled waters may be required to list "hydration potential" along with sodium and mineral content on the nutrient facts panel.
