How Natura Water Systems Provide Optimal Hydration for a Healthy Cardiovascular System

Water is vital for overall health, but its significance is especially pronounced when it comes to cardiovascular health. The cardiovascular system, which includes the heart and blood vessels, relies on hydration for proper function. Pure, clean water helps maintain healthy blood circulation, regulates blood pressure, and supports the heart's efficiency. In this blog, we’ll explore why pure water is essential for cardiovascular health and how Natura Water Systems provide the best water for a healthy heart.

The Cardiovascular System and the Role of Water

The heart and blood vessels are responsible for circulating blood throughout the body. This blood carries essential nutrients and oxygen to cells while removing waste products. For this system to function optimally, blood needs to be at the right consistency—fluid enough to flow smoothly but not too thin or thick. Water plays a critical role in maintaining the balance of blood volume and viscosity.

Proper hydration helps prevent the blood from becoming too thick, which can lead to complications such as clotting or increased strain on the heart. Dehydration, on the other hand, can cause blood volume to drop, making it harder for the heart to pump blood efficiently. This can result in an increased heart rate and potentially contribute to high blood pressure or other cardiovascular issues.



In addition, water helps flush out toxins and metabolic byproducts that could otherwise accumulate in the bloodstream. A buildup of these substances can put additional stress on the cardiovascular system, increasing the risk of heart disease and other health problems. By staying well-hydrated with pure water, you support your kidneys in their role of removing waste and help your heart stay in top shape.

The Risks of Contaminated Water

While water is essential to cardiovascular health, the quality of the water we drink is just as important. Unfortunately, many sources of tap water contain contaminants that can have negative effects on the cardiovascular system.

Substances like chlorine, heavy metals (such as lead), industrial chemicals, and pesticides can pose significant risks.

For instance, exposure to high levels of lead has been linked to elevated blood pressure and damage to blood vessels, both of which are risk factors for heart disease. Chlorine, which is commonly used to disinfect municipal water, can also affect the elasticity of blood vessels, potentially contributing to hypertension.

Additionally, chlorine can contribute to the formation of harmful byproducts, such as trihalomethanes (THMs), which have been linked to increased inflammation and oxidative stress in the body. Over time, this oxidative damage can impair the function of the heart and blood vessels, contributing to chronic conditions like arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries).

Mercury is another heavy metal sometimes found in water, particularly in industrial areas, which can disrupt the cardiovascular system by causing inflammation and oxidative damage to blood vessels, leading to an increased risk of heart attack and stroke.

Industrial chemicals and pesticides are commonly found in water sources, particularly in agricultural areas. These substances, such as perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) and herbicides, can infiltrate water supplies through runoff from farms and industrial sites. Pesticides have been linked to higher rates of heart disease, as they can promote inflammation and alter blood flow by damaging the endothelium, the thin layer of cells that line blood vessels. A damaged endothelium can impair the production of nitric oxide, a molecule that helps relax blood vessels and regulate blood flow, leading to increased blood pressure and greater stress on the heart.

How Natura Water Systems Support Cardiovascular Health

Natura Water systems provide an advanced, highly effective solution for purifying water, ensuring that it not only meets safety standards but also supports your cardiovascular health. Their filtration technology, designed with a three-stage ANSI-53 spec’d filtration process, goes above and beyond to remove a wide range of harmful contaminants, including chlorine, lead, and other common toxins. This makes Natura’s system an essential tool for ensuring that the water you drink is both clean and beneficial for your heart and overall well-being.

Stage 1: Pre-Filter for Sediment and Larger Particles
The first stage focuses on removing larger particles, such as dirt, sand, and other sediments, that may be present in untreated water. By filtering out these larger particles, the pre-filter ensures that the subsequent filtration stages are more efficient and effective.

Stage 2: Activated Carbon for Chlorine, Chemicals, and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
The second stage uses activated carbon, a powerful substance that has an enormous surface area to trap and absorb harmful chemicals. This stage is critical for removing chlorine, a common disinfectant used in municipal water systems that can affect blood vessel elasticity and contribute to hypertension. Activated carbon also effectively removes volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other chemicals that can negatively impact cardiovascular health. Chlorine and VOCs, when consumed over time, can lead to oxidative stress and inflammation in the blood vessels, increasing the risk of heart disease.

Stage 3: Specialized Filters for Heavy Metals and Toxins
The final stage targets smaller, more harmful contaminants like heavy metals—particularly lead and mercury—along with industrial chemicals, pesticides, and other pollutants that can pose a risk to cardiovascular health. Lead, for example, has been linked to elevated blood pressure and arterial damage, which are major contributors to cardiovascular disease. Natura's specialized filters are designed to target and remove these metals, ensuring that the water you drink is free from substances that could stress the cardiovascular system over time.

One of the standout features of Natura’s filtration system is its ability to remove harmful impurities while retaining beneficial minerals that are vital for health. Many other filtration systems, such as reverse osmosis, can strip water of these important nutrients, but Natura’s three-stage system ensures that essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium remain in the water. These minerals are crucial for maintaining proper hydration, supporting healthy blood pressure, and promoting overall heart health.



Proper hydration with mineral-rich water helps maintain the balance of electrolytes in the body, which is essential for regulating blood pressure and supporting the function of the heart. Additionally, calcium and magnesium play key roles in supporting smooth muscle function, including the muscles in blood vessels, helping to prevent the stiffening that can lead to high blood pressure and other cardiovascular issues.
