RO Systems: Good, Bad or Ugly?



Event completed

Naturally clean, pure water is largely the stuff of dreams in today’s world. We take recourse to mechanically cleaning the water that we use for drinking and cooking – through reverse osmosis (RO).

But RO systems have a flip side: along with eliminating contaminants, they also remove essential minerals from water. Experts warn that RO water with dangerously low levels of mineral content can affect one’s health: it can lead to micronutrient deficiency, joint pain and even cardiovascular ailments

On the eve of World Water Day, join us to understand if RO is really a need or just a marketing gimmick.
