Guest guest Posted May 3, 1999 Report Share Posted May 3, 1999 Chris, I never use tap water, at all. A few years ago, my husband was drinking the water where he worked and later found out that the water was contaminated with sewage. It took them a month before they announced this to the public, but in the meantime he suffered from parasites. At that time, I didn't think that the water was a problem, since we use bottle water at home(and I often boil it), so I asked him what he drinks at work-then I knew what the problem was. There are many incidents with problems with the water, such as too much arsenic in it. Even if this wasn't a problem, I still wouldn't drink tap water, because of the flouride, among other things. By the way, flouride is banned in many countries. Many years ago my brother did a thesis on drinking water-and found out there were about 200 pecticides that they didn't check for. My suggestion is not to use tap water, but if you feel you have no choice, at least boil it.
