It is obvious that in rough weather condition nobody will jump on the streets with just a shorts on. The very minute we see rain clouds on the sky, we are taking the umbrellas and water coats. We do similary when going out on a cold winter day. We wear warm clothes. Why do we do that? To protect ourselves. To prevent us from catching illness and being out of action.

We care about our protection and safety. We prevent from being cought. But quite frankly we care about our external protection. Our gear, our wear. And what about our internal protection?

We come from outside and drink water. But is this water safe to drink? Will it force life to our system or will it try to take it back? Are you sure that your home water is safe? If you have any doubts you should make a full water analysis. Specialists in this area like Springsoft.ie performs checks in all newly dug wells and advise a full chemical and bacteriological tests. This is to ensure you are not consuming any contaminants that are harmful to your health or that there are no chemicals or metals present that may damage your appliances, pipes or heating system. And most important – your health!
If you are on the mains supply you can request the details of the most recent water analysis directly from your local county council.

What types of water test analysis can be done?

Basic water testing – As part of our site surveys our engineers can do basic testing for indications of the presence of calcium (limescale), iron & manganese, and PH levels. However this is a basic indication test and cannot identify specific levels of these issues nor can Springsoft engineers test for bacteria on site.

Laboratory Water Analysis – both the chemical and bacteriological analysis below must be carried out by a fully accredited lab.

Full Chemical Analysis – A full chemical analysis will give specific results in parts-per-million of a range of items in your water. These include calcium, iron, manganese, ammonia, nitrates etc. Once you have these details it is possible to compare against the advised levels and identify whether it is an issue for consumption.

Full Bacteriological Analysis – A full bacteriological analysis will identify any bacteria present in your supply. Examples of bacteria that can be found in well and mains water include cryptosporidium and E-Coli.

Did you know that, under certain conditions, you can apply for a grant of up to 75% for water treatment to privately owned wells. There are a number of conditions you must meet in order to qualify. One of these conditions is relative to what is contained in your water supply. In order to be considered you must have a full chemical and bacteriological test carried out in order to see if any specific level is above the County Council recommended levels.

Harmful particulates are present in almost every water system and every water network in the World. They are present in Ireland as well. Don’t let them catch you first. Ask for a detailed water analysis if you have any doubts about the condition of your water. Don’t put the health of yourself and your family at stake. The risk is just too great.

Even those among us who have had minor cases of bad breath know how hard it is to get rid of the offensive odors that come out of out mouths. Sometimes mere brushing, water drinking and even aggressive use of breath products don’t solve the problem. Therabreath Plus Basics however is one product that is believed to be the ultimate solution to stubborn bad breath.

What is TheraBreath Plus Basics?

TheraBreath Plus Basics is a product package under the Therabreath brand made up of an oral rinse, toothpaste and a tongue scraper. These product items are the basic part of a comprehensive system for oral care that can help eliminate bad breath. Therabreath first came out in 1994 but its products have been continuously improved to provide better oral care. Today, Therabreath Plus Basics is considered to be both a unique and radical solution. The product package works on what is believed to be the cause of bad breath that is different from other common beliefs about the condition.

Doctor Katz

It is a comforting thought that TheraBreath Plus Basics was not developed by just any manufacturer or founder with obscure scientific and dental expertise. The products of Therabreath were developed through the research, hard work and actual experience of a real and reputable dentist, Dr. Harold Katz. Dr. Katz graduated from UCLA and holds degrees in both dentistry and bacteriology. He is the founder of the California Breath Clinics and has treated thousands of patients around the world with his revolutionary treatment.

The Cause of Bad Breath

In some ways, Dr. Katz has met with different reactions simply because he says that bad breath is not caused by bacteria thriving and growing on the tongue nor by actions and reactions in the stomach. Bad breath can therefore not be solved by aggressive tongue scraping or using products that claim that they can kill bacteria on the tongue.

Dr. Katz’s study of bacteriology has allowed him to determine that the root cause of bad breath is good anaerobic bacteria that thrive within the tongue and the back of the throat. These good bacteria normally assist in digestion but may also begin to break down protein at a fast rate, producing volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) that cause bad breath. The logical solution to solving bad breath is to neutralize VSCs or to stop their production.

TheraBreath vs. Other Products

In an attempt to kill bacteria, a lot of oral care products contain the foaming agent sodium lauryl sulfate, which is actually quite harsh. Therebreath does not contain similarly harsh substances. It instead contains Oxyd-VIII which is an agent that prevents the production of VSCs by anaerobic bacteria by providing oxygen.

TheraBreath Status

One more comforting fact about Therabreath Plus Basics is that its claims are backed by real clinical studies that have been presented to a scientific community. The only real challenge for Dr. Katz and Therabreath is to encourage more support from both users and the dental community this is especially since Dr. Katz does dispute common beliefs about the causes of bad breath.
