<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Today's question is this one. Evaluations conducted by the Environmental Working Group indicate that the answer is "yes," but a lot depends on where you live and the location of the store.<br />
<br />
In some cases, if there is a bottling company in your area, you are actually buying your own tap water in a relatively clean plastic bottle. Buying a case could be a good idea in preparation for an impending hurricane or when there is another natural disaster.<br />
<br />
But, if you have time to prepare, which we do in most cases, the most economical solution is to bottle your own. Weather agencies typically report alerts in plenty of time to start filling containers. If you happen to have a purifier in your home, you can be confident about the purity of what you store in those containers.<br />
<br />
The answer to today's question also depends on where you live, because in most areas there are high levels of contaminants that cannot be removed by public treatment facilities. If the brand that you purchased comes from an underground well, located well away from any sources of contaminants, then it could be purer than what comes out of your faucet.<br />
<br />
The companies call it spring water, but that is not completely honest. Springs bubble up out of the ground and can easily be contaminated by animal waste and other pollutants. Deep aquifers are protected from most of those things. Wells bring the liquids safely to the surface.<br />
<br />
So, you might ask, is tap water cleaner than bottled water sold at stores, when the source is a spring or underground well? If you have a home purifier, yours is most likely just as clean as theirs; it could even be purer.<br />
<br />
The purity of well-water depends on the rocks surrounding the aquifer. While the elements in the rocks are naturally occurring substances, they are not necessarily good for your health, particularly if you regularly consume a great deal of H2O.<br />
<br />
Regular consumption of pure H2O is recommended by traditional, mainstream and alternative healthcare practitioners. Sometimes we take a pill for a headache, when all that we really need to do is rehydrate.<br />
<br />
Sometimes, we experience achy joints or stomach upset. Again, we might be tempted to take a pill. But those things can be symptoms of mild dehydration.<br />
<br />
Staying hydrated is particularly important for people who exercise to the point of perspiring. But, if you drink from a bottle that you bought at a store, you never really know how hydrating the beverage actually is.<br />
<br />
If you have a home purifier, you can be confident that your beverage is free of contaminants and has just a trace of the electrolytes, sodium and potassium; those are important for staying hydrated. Just be sure to do some comparative shopping before you buy a purifier. The quality varies greatly.<br />
<br />
That should answer today's question, is tap water cleaner than bottled water sold at stores? Now, you might want to learn how to choose the best purifier. Look carefully, do your homework, check the data available on home purifiers, and thereby take a major step towards health and wellness.</div>SamLewknor2843
