Apart from its primary need of drinking, it is also required for varied other household chores, such as bathing, cleaning, general use and in cooking. 

The most common steps for food processing are washing, peeling blanching and cooking. Washing the vegetables and fruits is the most common direct form of food processing, and is usually the first step before consumption is made. Originally the main reason for washing is to remove pesticides residue in fruits and vegetables. Mostly some kind of produce such as fresh fruits and vegetables are often washed with tap water to remove dirt, post which it is consumed directly. However, tap water has a limited effect on the removal of pesticide residues. Meanwhile, alkaline water is also widely investigated and is being used as a known disinfectant in food processing using a low pH (3.5 to 5.5) and high oxidation reduction potential (ORP). 

Also, the beauty of having alkaline water filter is that, you can extract fresh alkaline water at a pH of 8.0 to 9.0 for cooking purpose. Zero B Hydrolife comes in a compact design to fit into your kitchen for a premium experience for the entire family.
