Geographical location

Located 10 km from Mouzaki and 40 km from Karditsa we meet the

Village Vatsounia.

The village has excellent drinking water, which according to chemical

analyzes of the General Chemical Laboratory is one of the best in the

country.

The Village Vatsounia

10 km from Mouzaki and 40 km from Karditsa are necessary to reach Vatsounia. Placed on an altitude of 430 m, sparsely populated and drowned in the forest of chestnut trees, fir trees and oak trees, Vatsounia belongs to the municipality of Mouzaki.

The main source of income of the residents comes from sheep goats and swine raising. About 5,000 sheep and swine are fed. The village has excellent drinking water, which according to chemical analyses of the General State Chemical Laboratory, is one of the best one can drink in Greece.

The history of the village, from antiquity until today, is incomplete not completely known. The village establishment is lost in the mists of time. Very close to the village, at “Paliokklisi” surrounding is placed the ancient kingdom of Seles. In modern times, testified that, around the year 1800, there were many battles in the area. At the end of the last century, the population of the town increased considerably, as moved in the area a group of people from the Epirus’ villages of Konitsa.

The Natural Mineral Water

THEONI springs at 1100 m altitude

of the sources of Goura, in the

mountainous region of Agrafa in

Karditsa.

Differences between natural mineral water - table water - water source

NATURAL MINERAL WATER

Has exclusively underground origin and

Community Directives prohibit any treatment or

disinfection in natural mineral water.

TABLE WATER

SPRING WATER

May be of any origin (eg drilling of lake from

the river, even desalinated sea water). The

table water can decontaminate, in order the

recommendation to be consistent with the

corresponding EU directive from drinking water

The spring water is an intermediate category

between the table and natural mineral water.

The european union has identified three different types of bottled water.

The bottling is fullyautomated in order to

eliminated the riskcontamination.

Excellent qualityand chemical composition

Bottled directlyfrom source

without incurring anytreatment.

The bottled water “THEONI” is real

spring water from the naturally

sprouting springs of Goura, at an

altitude of over one thousand meters.

These springs are located in the forest

“Vatsounia” of Mouzaki Municipality

of Karditsa. The springs in this region

are part of Penios river water basin.

Basic topographical data describing

the terrain of the springs

is in the elevation

changes, the

various slopes and

creases.

The area of the springs for the

“THEONI” water is in the western

fringes of the “Itamos” mountain and

the southern outskirts of the “Koziaka”

mountain, which are part of the Agrafa

mountain range.

The earthly sprouted (artesian water)

springs of Goura at an altitude of

over 1000 meters are also providing

the drinking water of the residents of

Vatsounia. The water source of Goura

springs from their underground

reservoirs never ends

and a part of this

is bottled by

AHB Group SA,

under the name

“THEONI”.

“Theoni” is, as it became known from

the memories of the elders in the area,

the name of the spring fairy in the

region

Advantages of natural mineral water Theoni

LOW RATE OF NITRATES-NITRITEwhich are indicators of water contamination

LOW CHLORIDES CL-

According to researches the clorides (in high rates):

1. is a powerful poisonous neurotoxi

2. create carcinogenic compounds (trihalomethanes).

3. cause heart diseases and arteriosclerosis.

4. kill good bacteria called probiotics

ABSENCE OF HEAVY, TOXIC METALS

LOW RATE OF SODIUM The sodium in high level can cause problem in arteries.

LOW RATE OF PHOSPHORUS The phosphate are indicators of water contamination with pesticides

ALCALINE WATER PH 8The cells of our body is slightly alkaline and must remain in order to be

healthy.
