Stop Drinking Bottled Water

6 Sep 2010  4 Comments

I never really bought in the bottled water hype. I think the main problem we have here is it will be really hard to find a really cold glass of tap water, unless you pre-refrigerate it.

I would really love to see some tests done on our tap water quality standards, and I know most homes have built-in filters too so I would think that the water is more than adequate to drink.

With some bottled water prices getting ridiculous, I think its time for all of us to stop wasting money and buying into the hype. This video is an eye opener and I agree with most of it.

    This video doesn’t add all the facts, the remaining questions are:

    1) Why Does Bottled Water Have an Expiration Date? and What Types of Plastics Used for Water Bottles?

    While “expired” unopened bottled water isn’t going to do you any harm, it isn’t going to get better with age, either. The plastic that water is packaged in — usually polyethylene terephthalate (PET) for retail bottles and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) for water cooler jugs — is slightly porous, so the water can pick up smells and tastes from the outside world.

    3) What are the PH levels?

    Water with a pH of 4.
    Penta Water, Distilled Water, Purified Water, Aquafina (made by Pepsi), Dasani (made by Coke), Glaceau Fruit Water, Le Blue Water, Metro Mint Water, Pellegrino (made by Nestle), Perrier (made by Nestle), Smart Water, and Vitamin Water.
    Water with a pH of 4.5.

    Appalachian Springs Water and Poland Springs Water (made by Nestle)

    All of the above bottled waters have an acidic ph, which does not support health waters
    Water with a pH of 7.

    There is a potential solution offered by a U.S. manufacturer that address both the pro-environmental impact of drinking less pre-packaged plastic bottled water and concern over tap (source) water quality.
