Are you Paying for Poison in your Bottled Water?
Are you Paying for Poison in your Bottled Water?

How much do you spend a week on bottled water? Clinical nutritionist Thomas Von Ohlen, MS, NC recently stated, “There are so many people who are spending a lot of money for bottled water and they are not aware of the source or purity of that water.” Von Ohlen goes on to say that, “people have the right idea in trying to avoid chlorine and fluoride from their tap water since research has linked the chemicals to cancers. The unfortunate problem is that some of the major manufacturers of bottled water are using the same water that comes from the consumer’s municipal water supply.”
Von Ohlen is referring to recent developments in regulations of the bottled water industry. PepsiCo Inc., makers of Pepsi cola products and Aquafina bottled water has recently agreed to add the words “public water source” to Aquafina labels. Coca-Cola Co., who makes Dasani bottled water, will post online consumer information regarding quality control testing in the next few months. Both companies have been found to use purified water from public reservoirs in their products.
Estimates say the average U.S. household uses 1,500 gallons of drinking water annually. The average gallon of bottled water at the grocery store costs $2. That is an expense of $3,000 a year for water that may be no different in quality than what you can get from your tap. This is a low estimate, as many people pay three to four dollars for a 16-20 ounce bottle of water at convenient stores across the country. Von Ohlen suggests for people to invest in a good quality water filter to be put under the sink where their drinking supply comes from. “It is worth paying a few hundred dollars to get a good filter instead of paying thousands for chlorinated bottle water,” says Von Ohlen.
There are independent clinical studies that indicated certain “functional water” products can be added to filtered water to ensure a higher level of cellular hydration. These studies are some of the newest in the field of water function in the human body. More information can be found through the “functional water” link at the bottom of this article.
