What’s in our bottled water besides water?
We all drink bottled water nowadays – ever mindful that water trumps juice or soda for health, right? Right. However, that water may contain contaminants. The Environmental Working Group has done an exhaustive study. 18% of all bottled waters refuse to cite the source of their water and 32% refuse to disclose anything about the treatment or purity of their water. This could be a problem since, along with the BPA in the plastic itself (released with heat – perhaps from sitting in the warehouse), we may be exposed to other toxins such as hexavalent chromium, a known carcinogen.
