Water question

[Guest guest]

OK, everybody. Usually I just read and learn here, but need some input at the

moment.

I have for some time used a Berkey filter for my water, running through it

flouridated, etc. city water. I have become increasingly concerned about the

flouridation, but have not figured out a way to get past it, as I'm working with

very limited means.

Recently I bought a used dehumidifier to run in the house and just had an

interesting thought.

Does it make any sense to take the water from the dehumidifier and run thru the

Berkey for cleansing to use as my drinking water?

Thanks for whatever thoughts any of you might have.

Blessings,

Judy

The Berkey is carbon block and not effective for flouride.

I have considered RO, but finances are very limited and I'm living in a rental.

I also thought about rain water, but don't see a viable way right now in a rental without any guttering. Plus here in north central Oklahoma, at the bottom end of the Plains it can go a long time without much rain.

Thanks for the thoughts,

I'm not sure if Berkies are effective against flouride. Have you looked into reverse osmosis?You could try the dehumidifier thing. You could also try collecting rain water.- "Judith" <judithmarg ><herbal remedies>Friday, May 29, 2009 7:28 AM{Herbal Remedies} Water question> OK, everybody.
