Tap Water
By: 120202
Dec 23, 2009 - 06:09 am
Yesterday Dr Oz warned of bathing with tap water, especially children. I would expect some fallout from our water processors. The process mandated to purify water is mind boggling, chemical list alone. Google Flourine, not for my consumption. Makes me wonder about the safety of all the beverages and food we consume, most arrives via ship, weeks old. Back to Oz, is this guy credible?

Well... a quick look at his website... and well... he isn't concerned about flourine. Flourine is put in the water to help reduce tooth decay. It is a good thing overall. It works.

Water purity has been in the news lately. Some new research has come out suggesting that the current regulatory agency has been slacking off (not limited to Obama, goes back to Bush and maybe even Clinton). The rules are there but water companies have been able to avoid compliance. Even some of the rules are being questioned as newer toxins have been revealed that are not currently regulated.

I don't know if Oz is credible but the story is current.

Please visit flouridealert.com and cite sources for why flouride is healthful. My dogs prefer puddle water over tap, not surprised?

I tried to use only rain to shower, but this time of the year, it's really a pain in the ass.

Do you drink tap water? The site mentioned offers verifiable data. Thanks

That depends. Do they make Mountain Dew or Bud Light with "tap" water?

This is the REAL reason why I started working at a winery...to avoid drinking water and beverages made with water
