What's in your Tap water?

Monday, March 01, 2010



Water is something we can’t live without. It is part of every function of our body. From renewing cells to regulating temperature to making sure nutrients get absorbed, water is our fountain of life.
With our fast-paced, highly-industrialized society, we can no longer take for granted that the water we drink is safe and healthy.”

When you realize that around 300 harmful chemical compounds have been found in municipal water supplies and that government regulation only requires that our water treatment centers test for a handful of these toxins, the importance of taking personal responsibility for the safety of your drinking water becomes very important.


SHOCKING VIDEO: Prescription drugs found in US tap water! Each of us who take over-the-counter or prescription meds have one thing in common, we do not absorb 100% of everything we consume. Some of it is passed through the body into the sewage system which is then treated and ends up back in the water system...

Did You Know?

• 20% of our nation’s water treatment facilities have consistently been unable to meet the standards set by the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA).

• There is national standard for water purity. Each state creates separate standards based on the SDWA.

• A recent independent study on over 70 major brands of bottled water found that almost 25% had harmful contaminants at levels that violated the limits for the state in which they were purchased.*

• The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which is responsible for monitoring the safety of the bottled water industry, has NO dedicated departments to enforce this task.

• The FDA ONLY monitors those companies who transport their product across state lines. If a company bottles and distributes its product inside its state’s borders, it does not fall under the FDA jurisdiction.

• In 2008 alone, there were over 250,000 violations of the Environmental Protection Agency’s standards that adversely affected the water consumed by 29% of the US population. **
