Re: Which Water is Better?-OT

[Guest guest]

I don't think any of us on this list are " water experts " .

I don't know if there are any yahoo lists that deal specifically with

the pros and cons of different types of water. Or maybe there is a

website that details the positives and negatives about different

types of water purification systems.

I would vote for water without chlorine.

the trouble with water is what is delivered varies a lot place to

place

so you have to sort through it yourself

no one size fits all

some no's so far i have seen are

carbon filtering or mineral depleting water at the entry to the

house, but the water then goes through copper piping really picks up

bad copper

zinc/copper filters dump to much inorganic zinc and copper in the

water

Well I don't claim status as an expert but will share reactions and an opinion.

I cannot drink reverse osmosis water but am fine with spring water.

And makes a good point.

Bottled water should be tested often as the quality can vary even from the same

source. When I first had sensitivity problems I drank distilled water for a

year, but was aware it lacked minerals. As my gut healed, I could tolerate

mineral waters, spring water and even tap water. Don't reuse the small bottles

to refill.

(My experience may not be at all relevant to others as I also had extreme

chemical sensitivities at the same time as the onset of celiac disease.)

With so many things to concern beginners to SCD, don't worry too much over the

details like organic foods and bottled water. If you feel more comfortable with

such things and they work for your budget, by all means use them.

The real priority is becoming accustomed to the SCD diet and making the best

choices within its guidelines.
