Made with Love

I've been drinking tap water all my life and have never been seriously sick.

So what's the big deal with spending money on filtered or bottled water?. Anyone with a logical explanation why millions rather not drink tap water?.

You a tap or bottle water drinker?.

Just asking.
 
Tap water through a 3 stage filtration system, figure it can only help.

Never buy bottled water, unless I have no choice, always bring water from home, seems lazy and wasteful to do otherwise.

Not in a position to tell anybody what is right or wrong on this subject.

When I lived on a farm, you could smell sulfur from well water, 100 feet away, and I'm in perfect health, as is the rest of my family.

Also chlorine filters in the showers, not only for the skin, but when you breath in the vapours, can't be to good for ya.

Pretty sure that is probably a coincidence and has more to do with you just being very immune proficient.
 
FDA has the most relaxed stipulations on bottled water... most of it is just municipal water that is remarketed with certain terms that are “allowed” for an upcharge. forgot which ones bc my lecture was a while ago but the “mountain” and “glacier” water are most likely not from a mountain lol

tap water has tiny amounts of chlorine in it as part of the purification process from treatment plants which gives it the taste a lot of people don’t like but a reverse osmosis unit fixes that. nothing to do with a stronger immune system from what i know.

the bottles almost always contain PET, and the chemicals combine into the water with either heat or over time which contributes to the negative effects of it. the pH of the water is almost always off too and filtration isn’t as heavily regulated by FDA (tap water is regulated by another body)

too many reasons why we can have bad health, can’t all be blamed on what type of water we drink lol

Ps. It is amazing that people would buy expensive water bottles such as Evian when studies have shown that tap water is way healthier than Evian.
 
I only drink bottled water for convenience reasons. When I'm at home or a place with a fountain it's always free public tap water.

Well, does anybody know what evian means, spelled backwards ?

You mean if you don't live in North America?.

No, what I meant was that in some, if not most medium to large North American municipalities, the potable water supply is very well managed and as such is exceedingly safe for humans to drink. That said, there have been a number of surprising instances over the past few years where a medium to large municipality has been shown to have very high levels of contamination in the potable water supply making it exceedingly, if not downright fatal to drink...

Walkerton, Ontario; Flint, Michigan; and Crestwood, Illinois all leap to mind, but there are many more examples...Newest potable water crisis is actually now coming from wind turbines that are contaminating subterranean water sources with their incessant vibrations that stir up excessive sedimentation in the water making it unfit for drinking.

Interesting, I've never heard of this. Are there any articles you can add the link to please.
