Water 2.0 Bottled, Tap or Filtered – Which is The Safest?
Water Alert! There’s Something In Your Water That You Should Know About!
We all know that our planet, body and even brain is mostly water 70-80% approximately. But not all water is equal! We need fresh, non-sea water for our drinking, cooking and bathing purposes. Without proper water hydration in our bodies, we can’t perform at our peak levels, we look older, our skin becomes wrinkly and dry, we get dandruff and keep toxins inside of our body.
So, water is important to our health as well as our life. The quality of the water we drink and bathe in directly affects our performance, whether physical, mental or on the job. There are chemicals being put into our water that will not only make you and your family sick but “dumb us down” as well.
It will cause you to be more sluggish, get sick more often, stay sicker longer and perform more poorly as well as still be thirsty after you drink it. Not the reason we drink water right? It’s time to ditch this water and make sure you’re not putting this crap into you and your family’s bodies.
Fluoride, Water, Teeth and Your Health
Here’s what Science has to say about the Fluoride being put into your water:
There are warnings not to give your infants fluoridated water because it can kill them. What do you think it does to adults and animals? Poisons them slowly but surely! But it’s good for my teeth right? That’s what the “Dental Experts” have always said right?
Fluoride is good for your teeth?
Don’t think so! Avoid it in your toothpaste too. You can find non-fluroridated toothpaste in some supermarkets now, online (in the previous link) and in Trader Joe’s Stores as well. People who use fluoride in their toothpaste have to visit their dentists a lot more, and pay them money for your pain. Are your kids getting cavities yet using this toothpaste? I thought so! Ditch it now and let them keep their poison to themselves! I would also highly recommend that you get tooth probiotics, because they not only make your teeth celebrity white, but they also prevent gum disease, tooth decay, heart disease (yes heart disease is related to harmful tooth bacteria). This is the future of dentistry, no more expensive and painful drilling just to have root canals later. Not any more!
Back to Water
When it comes to the water we drink there are three main choices: Tap Water, Bottled Water, and Home Filtration Systems or DIY (Do It Yourself). Let’s look at each of the three and see the pro’s and con’s of each method. Which do you want in your body?
Tap Water
Tap water is the least expensive of all and some researchers say that it is no more harmful than bottled water for drinking purposes. But is that a true statement? Lets look at some of what is really in the tap water you may be drinking:
Pros of Tap Water
Least expensive source of water
Removes most harmful pathogens
Softens water – making it more alkaline
Balances PH level
Removes some contaminants
Cons of Tap Water:
Fluoride (dangerous chemical – leads to lethargy, parkinsons and tooth decay – you read this right!)
Chlorine (dangerous chemical – causes asthma, allergies, rashes and brain damage)
Pharmaceuticals (dangerous chemicals – depends on the drug in the water)
Pesticides, Fungicides, Herbicides (Kills cells bad and good – leads to digestion and brain problems)
Calcium (excess calcium leads to arthritis, atherosclerosis, tumors and osteoporosis)
Lead (dangerous heavy metal – poison to the nervous system)
Plastics (harmful chemicals in some plastics lead to cancer and tumors)
Bacteria (some bacteria are harmful and lead to illness)
Heavy Metals (brain and nervous system poisoning)
Tastes pretty bad in most areas
You still need a container to travel with
Bottled Water
Bottled Water comes in many shapes, sizes, tastes and purity levels. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) warns about drinking most bottled water because of the fluoride still in it! Is it really better than tap water for drinking? Let’s look at the pro’s and con’s of most bottled water (they will all vary according to manufacturer):
Pros of Bottled Water:
Greater Filtration than tap water
More control over quality
Greater convenience – take it you anywhere
You can get it delivered
Taste is much better
Cons of Bottled Water:
Up to 500% more expensive
Causes environmental damage due to processing and trucking of water
Added plastic molecules into the water
Leaves some pharmaceuticals
Leaves some heavy metals
Leaves some fluoride (unless it’s reverse osmosis)
Leaves some chlorine
Leaves some heavy metals
Removes some necessary minerals making it more acidic
Water Store or Kiosk
Your local water store or roadside kiosk. Is their water any better than tap or bottled? Let’s take a look at the pros and cons of the water store:
Pros of the Water Store or Kiosk Systems:
Removes almost all pathogens
Removes almost all pharmaceuticals
Removes almost all pesticides
Removes almost all heavy metals
Removes almost all fluoride
Removes almost all chlorine
Tastes really good
Cons of Water Store or Kiosk Systems:
You have to travel to get it and bring your own bottle (Gas $$)
Can be inconvenient at times, as you are dependent on their hours
Quality levels vary, depending on filter checks and whether a kiosk or actual store
Can remove all minerals making it more acidic (some have alkalizing balancing)
In a Gas Shortage, you might not be able to get this (if you have no home filter, then you’re stuck!)
Brita type home pitcher filtration systems
Brita, Pur, Mavea and other pitcher type home filtration systems need no installation. You just pour tap water into the top of a pitcher and water will be filtered by a carbon filter, which traps large particles from entering the drinking water. Is this any better than the other sources of water?
Pros of Brita Water
Relatively inexpensive
Traps large particles from entering drinking water
Filters some of the chlorine out of the water
Filters some of the calcium out of the water
Makes it taste a little better, but not much
Cons of Brita Water
Does not remove Fluoride
Does not remove heavy metals
Does not remove all toxins
Does not remove pharmaceuticals
Does not taste very good
You still need a container to travel with
Home Filtration Systems and Reverse Osmosis
Now let’s look at home filtration systems. Ionized Alkaline Water is by far the best, followed by Reverse Osmosis and then Distilled Water. Is it worth it to do it myself? Here are the pro’s and con’s of DIY home filtration systems for water purification:
Pros of Home Filtration Systems:
Removes pathogens
Removes pharmaceuticals
Removes pesticides
Removes heavy metals
Removes fluoride
Removes chlorine
Removes PVC and plastic molecules
Tastes really good
Cons of Home Filtration Systems:
More expensive at first (gets less expensive as you use it)
You still need a container to take it with you if you travel
Can remove all minerals making it more acidic (add Alkalizing Minerals afterward unless you’re using ionized water)
Conclusion:
If you have the money a full home filtration system is the best for you and your family’s health. Next best is going to your local water store or kiosk., Followed by bottled, and next Brita and last but not least tap water, unless you live in Yosemite where the tap is better than all of the above! Here they are in order:
Get the best you can, and at the very least DO NOT DRINK THE TAP! Don’t let your local water district do it for you, if they start cutting their budgets, then it will get even worse. You don’t need to count on them! I’d recommend a commercial grade water purification system for your house if you really can. If gas prices get too high you will be even smarter not having to go out to get your water. This is one of the best health decisions you could possibly make!
Hope this helps you make a better choice when it comes to you and your family’s health. Get the best water you can and drink up! For more information visit How To Purify Water

Yes, it’s very important to them! Not really good for people though, it is a poison that is extremely harmful to human health and will actually cause dental flurosis and damage your nervous system. It does make lots of money for the people who fund their research – the fluoride peddlers! http://www.fluoridealert.org/

Actually, the CDC thinks fluoride is important — that it’s good to have in water. See:
