Guest guest Report post Posted May 28, 1999 Hello, Filtered Water is the most important thing you can drink, you know how you feel in the summer when its hot and you just downed a soda and you still feel thirsty? You body is in need of water and you just gave it soda and its trying to get the water but it has to filter out all the crap to get to the water. If you just drank water in the first place you are most likely not thirsty.

The only thing it will NOT remove is fluoride, so if that is an issue, there are other solutions you need. Solid carbon block removes virtually all chemical contamination, heavy metals (lead, cadmium, arsenic), asbestos, MBTE (the gasoline additive contaminating all the water), cysts like giardia & cryptospyridium, pesticides, chlorine - all that is bad except fluoride. email me if you would like information.

Guest guest Report post Posted November 6, 2000 Hi , We drink lots of water here, so much so that I got a water dispenser. I no longer buy pop for the kids, they don't seem to miss it much. One thing to be aware of is floride if you quit drinking city water. I never thought about the fact Robbie is missing the floride until he recently got his first cavity.

Guest guest Report post Posted January 11, 2001 Distilled water has had everything removed from it...chemicals,impurities... but also important minerals, etc. If your diet is very good, you should be able to drink this water without missing any minerals and such. Otherwise, you may want to drink a good spring or well water (one that has been tested properly)...Sharon Re: Water > In a message dated 01/11/2001 8:00:36 PM Pacific Standard Time, > selahdream@... writes: > > << What is the best > water to drink? >> > I have heard that distilled water is the best water to drink, but I am afraid > I can't remember the reasons why. > > Sunflower > Homeschooling, BF, AP, FB , CD Mommy to > " " (7/92) > Tristen River(3/97) > Trinity Kaya Rose(10/2000 born at home.) > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is the best water to drink? >> Bottled wate leaches the chemicals from the bottles(unless glass).RO and distilled are the best when each is combined with a carbon filter. It all depends on your specific water needs.I heard you can get the water test results from your city for free.You can compare that with an independant test. I think pure spring water is said to be the best for you,but ofcourse not many of us can go to the actual source! If mineral loss is a concern you can always replace what is lost. This can be a big investment so take the time to research.When we get our first home I hope to install a whole house filter and an RO for drinking water. sara Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest guest Report post Posted January 12, 2001 Some people recommend adding " Willards Water " (at least I think it is called that) to distilled and RO water to supplement the minerals lost through processing.

Guest guest Report post Posted January 12, 2001 Even if your diet is good, if distilled or RO water leeches minerals from you body, there would still be a problem. It is an issue I've been concerned with for years - I drink RO water - and I don't know the answer to it either.

Guest guest Report post Posted January 12, 2001 I researched water quality in the early 80's and then researched filters and the type of filters. In my opinion the solid carbon block is best (I agree with the distilled water being potentially harmful - plus chemicals contaminating the water can go over into the distillate.

Guest guest Report post Posted January 12, 2001 If you have your water tested by the city/county, be aware that they only test for certain things. My parents recently found out that water tables in their area were contaminated with a cancer causing degreasing agent. They decided to have their water tested, and the county said it was fine, but when they had it tested by the state, it came back as contaminated. They now have to use bottled water for cooking AND bathing and everything else. State testing is expensive, and you need to specify everything you want the water tested for, but in my parents case, it was worth the cost. (Although the state is reimbursing them, and supplying all of their water, until they (the state) has the problem " cleaned up " ))...Sharon Re: Water > In a message dated 1/12/01 12:12:18 AM Pacific Standard Time, > selahdream@... writes: > > << > Can someone here lead me to a good resource on why we need to drink lots of > water?

Guest guest Report post Posted January 12, 2001 This is true that some chemicals and pesticides can be carried over in the distillation process. I think the best method would be to filter the distilled water.
