My Thoughts
I think this is absolutely scary! We read all the time about companies who take advantage of the ‘rules and laws’ that are in place…but with bottled water, there seems to be no rules, so you can only imagine what these corporations are doing, or where they’re getting the water. It was just last year that the EWG found ten popular U.S. bottled water brands contained mixtures of 38 different pollutants, including bacteria, fertilizer, Tylenol and industrial chemicals. Just think of this…the environmental group EWG asked 188 bottled water companies to just disclose where they get their water, and how its treated…only 2 of the 188 did this. The only reason they wouldn’t, is because their hiding something. I recommend you just stop buying bottled water, and try using a refillable container. My favorite is Klean Kantean!

Spend $150 bucks for a reverse osmosis system under your kitchen sink & you’ll have fabulous water. It’ll soon pay for itself! I refuse to buy bottled water even though it’s so convenient.

This is nuts. If you can disclose, you’re hiding something. At least, in my country, disclosure of where the water supply comes from is a requirement, and has to be printed on the label.

you are 100% RIGHT about bottled water! i am very sensitive to toxins and on a recent trip to baltimore i drank bottled water and puked my guts up! i alerted the water company NESTLE’S and they assured me the sodium fluoride they added was regulated and safe! thankfully my body REJECTED it!
