Bottled water is not necessarily safer than your tap water. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has identified 80-plus contaminants that may be found in drinking water. And whereas municipal water treatment facilities do a good job in supplying water to households, the vulnerability of our water supplies, heavy chlorination and resultant chlorine by-products leave many people uneasy.
The demand for clean, safe, healthy drinking water has turned into a multi-billion dollar industry. When most people think about bottled water, they envision a pristine stream as the source. But what do you really know about the source of your bottled water?
Studies indicate that distilled water tends to rinse out substances, such as calcium. And the pH of bottled water is often acidic, making the body work harder to maintain an alkaline pH. Not only that, but cheaper, mass-produced bottles left on shelves, in warm cars or delivery trucks may leach unwanted chemicals into the water.
If you choose to purchase bottled water carefully read the label to understand what you are buying. In August 2000, Consumer Reports investigated the sources of several brands of bottled water, the containers used, and the cost and taste. Consumers were shocked to discover that several name-brands bottled nothing more than filtered municipal water.
