Toxins found in United States Tap water (dangerous drinking water)

Most people believe tap water is a clean and healthy source of fluid for our bodies, this is a common myth. The United states government originally began flouridating our tap water supply in 1945, studies now indicate that fluoride may be associated with certain forms of cancer, kidney disease, and dental problems.

What does tap water contain that is so harmful to us? The findings include drugs such as antibiotics, anti-convulsants, mood stabilizers and sex hormones, in addition to the old problems of lead and volatile organic chemicals. With over 2100 toxic chemicals that can cause birth defects and cancer, we have good cause to be concerned. Atrazine, a nasty organic herbicide that’s banned in Europe, was one of the most common pollutants, as was the mood-stabilizing drug Carbamazepine and the painkiller Naproxen, among other drugs. Fish are already changing sex in rivers that we draw our water from, and no amount of chlorine that the treatment plants throw at it is going to help. This is a modern phenomenon as must be tackled with modern technology. Look for a multi-stage, carbon block filter which will effectively remove 99% of all contaminants, and keep in vital minerals like calcium and potassium. Check the manufacturers data performance sheet to check what it will remove. We live in times of mass water contamination, make sure you know what your drinking.
