Water
You might not
realize is how much of a world-wide problem having clean, pure water
to drink is. Over 2.2 million people a year die from contaminated
water. The water you are drinking is not as safe as you think and
is probably slowly causing kidney problems, nervous system problems,
intestinal diseases and even cancer.
The National
Resources Defense Council (NRDC) graded the drinking water in 19
U.S. cities and found that drinking water contained many harmful
contaminants. In all, five of the cities failed to pass the minimum
EPA standards and in one of the cities, the drinking water contained
rocket fuel, arsenic, germs, lead and pesticides. Also, the EPA
standards, which has been used since 1942, are very low for contaminants.(for

If you think
you are safer drinking bottled water, think again. Bottled drinking
water has fewer standards than tap water. The FDA does not require
bottled water to be disinfected, so bottled water can contain viruses,
chemicals or parasites such as Cryptosporidium, Giardia, coliform
or E. Coli.
The best way
to protect yourself is through point-of-use filtering. Protect yourself
by filtering your own water.
