Toxins in Bottled Water!

[kevinjohn]

Hi all,
I am not realizing that tap water is safe to drink. There are large amount of consumers of bottled water in the country. I know that the water is not "safe," but I don't know exactly what toxins are in it, or where they come from. Does anyone know about this problem?
Thanks!

its in the local water supply, and some particles could still be in water like aquafina or disani where they just take local supply water and clean it more. Flouride, that is in tooth paste which can make women infertile among other things. if you care about it, buy water like evian, which is from fresh water source. Or get a brita water filter.

I buy Evian & Fiji water in the 1 liter & 1.5 liter bottles in bulk, and then have a water filtration system with the big refillable 5 gallon jugs of spring water that I refill my bottle with.

I don't use the same bottle everyday though, I just refill it that day and then chunk it.

its nothing im concerned with.

there are some nuts out there that liken taking a shower to standing in a gas chamber - they claim the hot water opens up pores, your body soaks up the flouride in the water through the pores, and then i dunno, you die or something, im not exactly sure what it is these idiots are getting at. i hate people.

unless your local water is unpotable, you should be fine drinking it. if you have reservations about drinking public water, buy a filter. bottled water is fine too.

That makes two of us. People need to give the human immune system a little more credit.

If you have city water (ie not from a well) your water is probably cleaner than bottled water. Bottled water isn't regulated, your city water is tested daily. If there is some funky shit is your tap water the city will know pretty quick. As for bottled water.... good luck.

I buy a liter bottle of dasani or aquafina about once a month and proceed to refill it with tap (well) water a few times a day. I'm still alive. I'd be more concerned with the supps/aas we put into our bodies w/o knowing what exactly is really in them.

Hi, Water is necessary for life, so it's a wonder that it's treated with such disregard. What flows from the tap at home is often polluted with some form of pesticide, industrial chemical, pharmaceutical drug, or other toxin - even after it's passed through a treatment facility. The ability of water treatment facilities to remove toxic chemicals such as lead, mercury, arsenic and other toxins is minimal, and in some geographical areas, non-existent. Even the pipes through which clean water must travel may itself be the source of toxins.

It is funny when you guys get worried about water but don't hesitate to inject gear that very likely had millions more pollutants than water.

Homemade gear made in someones basement not a lab. Yet most of us will inject that without thinking twice... yet a bottle of Dasani...NOOOOOO
