I am one of the people who drinks bottle water with the fear that tap water would be less clean. I'm sure bottled water isn't entirely pure; However, psychologically I find it a little more comforting that it is in a bottle with a cap and not spouting from the kitchen faucet. This article is now beginning to change my mind about my faucet fear and I think I will purchase Brita as well to help me overcome that. Thanks!! This was great read!

I really appreciate it, as it is always good to learn about new things. I have heard of similar filters and yes there is lots of potential in these. And where water is concerned, this is SUCH and important topic as it sustains all life. It is something that should be given a huge priority in our lives to get the best quality we can, but many dismiss it as they do not fully understand the power and potential of water yet. So good for you for being so proactive about your health! (I have also checked out some of your other articles - I appreciate the thoughts you share!) Hi Arlo,

I have made sure that I have a reverse osmosis water treatment system under my kitchen sink in every residence I have occupied since I learned about the condition of United States water over thirty-five years ago, when I was an "in home" water conditioning salesman for Rayne Water Company. I have nothing to gain from your purchase of items from Seychell Water Company, as I am not a shareholder, or affiliated with them in any manner. Watch their videos with Pat Boon or Mickey Rooney to see an unbelievable demonstration of what their filter does!

It is so dangerous and most of the developed world has stopped this unethical practice. You can read more about it on the Fluoride Action Network website. It will make your hair stand on end. Here in Cape Town our water is not fluoridated (althoug Johannesburg's is) and filtered water is therefore safe. You've given me a good incentive to stop buying bottled water!

Those bottled water are ridiculous and I believe tap water has the minerals to keep your teeth strong and you smile clean. We were actually paying more for bottled water than gas!

There still will be people who buy water bottles though, and there's room to make them greener and biodegradable at least. There are biodegradable corn plastics on the market for example. I use a Pur filter at home but have not been able to get the rest of my family to leave their Aquafina non-biodegradable bottles at the store. If you are interested, there's an effort to pressure PepsiCo to switch to biodegradable bottles for Aquafina water. Check it out at http://www.thepoint.com/campaigns/put-aquafina-in-biodegradable-bottles-or-else I just joined as I feel we need to just get one of the bottled water makers to make the switch and that will hopefully encourage other water companies to follow their example.

And we no longer purchase new water bottles, we have reused and reused and reused our old bottles. My sons chore is to wash them and refill them. He is the one who uses them mostly, but I have snuck one here and there. I prefer my water to be room temperature and with lots of lemon. Cold drinks are not good for you. Luckily for me I have never cared for cold drinks. We do not leave any bottles in our car, we bring a cooler to keep them cool…the water bottles I mean.
