GET THE DISTILLED WATER HABIT
THE water habit is a health habit. The person who
drinks water only te quench thirst loses its chief
benefit. Fer distilled water has the power te invigorate
the human body by dissolving and absorbing the waste
tissue that is constantly forming.
It all hinges en the word distilled. Natural water can
not be pure. It contains dissolved vegetable and mineral
matter, which prevents the water from performing its
mission for your body.
Pureck is distilled scientifically se that net a particle
of foreign matter remains. It has the greatest power te
absorb impurities and clean your system of any water
that you can drink.
Let your drinking water always be Pureck. It is mero
than a thirst quencher and is inexpensive.
