Long-Term Health Impacts of Filtered and Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water: A Scientific Review and Innovation Perspective
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This research paper examines the long-term health impacts of drinking filtered or Reverse Osmosis (RO) water, which often lacks essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium. It highlights the health risks associated with demineralized water, including electrolyte imbalances, bone loss, and cardiovascular stress. The paper reviews WHO guidelines on water mineral content and suggests the need for innovative solutions such as re-mineralization filters. It also proposes sustainable alternatives, including alkaline and bio-ceramic filters, to restore beneficial minerals. Ultimately, the study emphasizes the importance of balancing water safety with nutritional value for long-term health.
