Water is the essential element in maintaining virtually every system in your body. Your brain, muscles, bones and kidneys cannot function without it.
Consider tap water. Traditional disinfecting methods performed at the water treatment plant can leave behind contaminants that make it into tap water. These can include chemicals, gases, bacteria, metallic elements, and more.
Many try to combat tap water contamination with bottled water, which then brings on another set of concerns.
Bottled water produces up to 1.5 million tons of plastic waste per year. Further, according to Food and Water Watch, that plastic requires up to 47 million gallons of oil per year to produce.
According to Consumer Reports, Americans spent $31 billion on bottled water in 2018. How much of that total was from your family? Water costs about three times more than gasoline when it comes in a plastic bottle.
