Thank you for posting a version of that link that works. I'll

copy/paste that here in case anyone missed it :

When I first read this, I did some research. The EPA

(Environmental Protection Agency) regulates what's in your tap water,

but of course, they can't regulate the safety of what you do with tap

water once it comes out of the tap.

They have a good site with EXTENSIVE information, even with very

detailed reports about EVERY water processing location in the

country. YOUR OWN LOCAL water provider is documented on their site.

Apparently, the chlorine in tap water is regulated and safe for

drinking purposes -- the chlorine/chlorimines can make the water safe

without too much danger (even so, the substances in the water must

stay withing safety regulations) because the substances they react

with are very low in volume.

However, with foods and even tea & coffee, etc. -- there are

LOTS and LOTS of substances for that chlorine to react with -- so the

potentially harmful substances that the chlorine could possibly make

are almost endless (and hard to catalog). Again, the EPA's job is

only to monitor WHAT'S ALREAD IN your tap water -- they cannot

monitor all the possible harm done by adding tap water to foods. The

EPA does " worry " about tap water's being safe to drink.

I love to make a watery blender beverage with any type of

sprouts. Just a pinch " flavors " your water and makes it a delicious

and refreshing pick-me-up any time of day.

If you want, you can try this experiment : make a glass of

Penta w/pinch of fresh home grown sprouts (or other purified,

filtered, distilled, etc.) water and next to that put a glass with

with same thing, only substitute tap water for the 2nd glass.

Sniff. Taste. I can certainly sense the difference. After that,

you'll probably use filtered/pure water ONLY when combining it with

foods, coffee, or tea.
