FYI on Distilled water & Flouride

[Guest guest]

Hi All-- I was doing some reading on Flouride since I drink alot of tap water. Learned a couple of things of interest: Flouride is linked to numerous health issues including cancer, thyroid conditions and osteoporosis. It is natural in relatively high doses in produce but is especially concentrated in black and red tea. So if you drink alot of tap water delivered black tea, look for filtering options. Brita won't do it. Boiling will increase rather than reduce concentration--I sometimes boil tap water for sinus rinse (hmmm). Freezing doesn't diminish it either. Another point unknown to me that a water expert made: "When looking at bottled water, keep in mind that 'distilled

water' does not imply that a product is suitable for drinking water and other undesirable impurities may be present."
