WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES IN DRINKING WATER?
BOTTLED WATER
Bottled water is not necessarily healthier than tap water and yet it costs much more! Although associated with healthy water, bottled water is not guaranteed to be any healthier than tap water. Often the only difference is the added minerals which have no proven health benefits.
A four-year study by the Natural Resources Defense Council shows that 1/3 of the bottled water tested contains levels of contamination which exceed allowable limits. Bottled water can also be slightly acidic, which may affect your body’s pH balance. Finally, the environmental impact caused by the production and disposal of plastic bottles is harmful to our ecosystem.
DISTILLED WATER
Also known as Reverse Osmosis water. All or almost all minerals are removed, which has raised concern, as waterborne minerals are important to nutrition.
TAP WATER
Municipal water, subject to strict regulations
May be treated with chlorine to keep it clean
May contain sediment and have a stale taste
Contains varying amount of minerals, depending on area
Cheap
