The Truth About Filtered Water vs QELBY: What Your Body Really Needs

Most people assume that if their water is filtered, it must be healthy. After all, the contaminants are gone, the taste is better, and the label might even say "purified." But if you're still feeling sluggish, bloated, or dry-skinned despite drinking plenty of water, it might be time to look beyond filtration.

At Soma Vibe Health, we believe hydration is about more than removing the bad stuff. It’s about activating the good: electrons, structure, and energy that your body can actually use.

Let’s explore the real difference between filtered water and QELBY-treated water and why structure matters more than most people realize.

What Filtered Water Gets Right (and What It Misses)

Filtered water is designed to remove impurities like chlorine, heavy metals, and sediment. Depending on the method used, such as carbon filtration, reverse osmosis, or VOC filtration, it can do an excellent job of cleaning up what you don't want in your water.

But here's the problem.

Most filtration systems also strip out the minerals and electrical charge that make water biologically active. Clean water is not always functional water, and your cells know the difference.

Filtered water can:

• Lack charge or energy
• Be too acidic or neutral
• Pass through your body without proper absorption
• Fail to support mitochondrial and cellular function

If your body is already depleted, filtered water may hydrate you less than you think.

What QELBY Water Does Differently

QELBY ceramic balls are not designed to purify, clean, or mineralize water. They are intended to work with water to help provoke the release of electrons and enhance the water’s structure.

Made from mineral-rich clay and somatid-active compounds, QELBY balls are fired at 1200°C. This process transforms them into a stable medium that interacts with water’s energetic properties. The result is the formation of EZ (Exclusion Zone) Water, a structured form of water that is naturally found inside healthy cells.

QELBY-treated water is not cleaner. It is more structured and energetically active.

It supports hydration at a cellular level by:

• Raising the zeta potential, which improves electrical stability
• Enhancing nutrient transport and energy conductivity
• Supporting energy retention and deep hydration
• Encouraging biological coherence similar to natural spring water

Unlike filtered water, which focuses on removing contaminants, QELBY-treated water enhances the functional qualities of already clean water.

Why Structured Water Means Better Hydration

Your body doesn’t just absorb water. It uses water to store information, generate energy, and regulate detox, hormones, and cellular repair. The molecular structure and electrical charge of the water determine how well it performs these functions.

EZ water has been shown to:

• Hold a strong negative charge
• Exclude contaminants from its boundary
• Fuel mitochondrial and cellular processes
• Support immune response and reduce oxidative stress

If you're only drinking filtered water, you’re getting part of the picture. When you restructure that purified water using QELBY balls, you enhance its ability to work with your biology instead of just passing through your system. But keep in mind, purified water using RO and VOC filters remove all the bad but also strips out the minerals. If you don't reintroduce the minerals, the water has little to no conductivity, so it can't provoke the release of electrons. You can easily add minerals using either a high-quality liquid mineral supplement ( just a few drops) or high-quality sea salt. This will put the mineral content back into your water. 

Which Water Supports You Best?

This isn’t a question of clean versus dirty. It’s a choice between passive hydration and functional hydration. Filtered water is essential for removing toxins and impurities. QELBY-treated water is designed to work with that clean water, transforming it into a structured, energetically supportive form that your cells can use more efficiently.

If you're ready to stop flushing and start fueling your body, it’s time to give your water the structure it needs to support your health from the inside out.
