comes to the surface filtered though ancient rocks formed over 500 million years ago.
The water itself is estimated to be over a 1000 years old and coaxes minerals from the rocks to provide a unique and healthy
water with highly beneficial properties.
SILICA – There are 16.1 mg/l of Silica naturally present in Fíor Uisce. Silica is one of nature’s natural cleansing
agents. It helps build bones, cartilage, connecting tissues and teeth and more recently has been shown to help delay the onset
of Alzheimer’s*. The body’s natural level of silica declines with age giving rise to signs of aging such as bone
loss, dry and wrinkled skin, weakened teeth and gums, and hair loss. Because the silica is naturally dissolved in Fíor Uisce
the body can absorb and benefit from it much more rapidly than if taken in the dry format. Most authoriative sources recommend
that the daily intake of Silica should be between 5-20mg.
SODIUM SULPHATE - (commonly known as Glauber’s Salt) – There are approximately 300 mg/l of Glaubers Salt naturally
present in Fíor Uisce. Regularly used in Chinese medicine Glauber’s Salt is used as a mild laxative and as a treatment
for gallstones. It is recognised worldwide as an aid to digestion. Many Chinese preparations contain 300mg of Glauber’s
Salt the amount naturally occuring in one litre of Fíor Uisce.
Fíor Uisce also contains potassium allowing more rapid re-hydration than most other waters, and because of the purity of
its origin it is one of the few waters to contain no Nitrate whatsoever. The level of Nitrate present in water is a standard
indicator of water purity. |
