The Water You Drink Is Billions of Years Old, Here’s Why It Needs Purifying

The water you drink today is as old as planet Earth itself! Every glass of water whether from your tap, borehole, or bottled has been part of a never-ending cycle for billions of years. The same molecules that once flowed through ancient rivers are now in your kitchen.

So, if water has been around forever, why do we still need purifiers today? The answer lies in what happens between those cycles.

Ancient Water, Modern Pollution

While the water molecules themselves are ancient, the environment they pass through has changed dramatically. Modern life introduces pollutants that nature can’t fully filter out industrial waste, agricultural runoff, chlorine, fluoride, and heavy metals.

In Kenya, borehole and well water often contain high levels of fluoride and salts, while urban tap water can carry chlorine, rust, or bacteria from aging pipes. These invisible contaminants are why a Reverse Osmosis (RO) purifier has become essential in 2025.
