Ugly Truth About Bottled Water
« on: January 25, 2013, 08:12:05 AM »
FACT : While the results of tap water contamination tests are made public, manufacturers of bottled water do not divulge their test results. Chalk it up to the protection of trade secrets. Every brand of bottled water has its own proprietary blend of pathogens, contaminants, and waste that give the product its uniquely refreshing taste.

Note: “FDA Should Adopt EPA Tap Water Health Goals for Bottled Water,” news release, Environmental Working Group, November 19, 2008, www.ewg.org.

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

Several issues dealing with the quality of commercial bottled water were raised in a technical forum sponsored by the National Academy of Science and Technology (NAST) and Kapisanang Kimika ng Pilipinas (KKP) during the Philippine Chemistry Congress last April 13, 2012 at EDSA-Shangrila Hotel, Metro Manila.

(1) Accreditation of laboratories by Department of Health (DOH) – proper term is “recognition”

*required laboratory space is too small
*qualifications of persons certifying reports of analysis and evaluating laboratories are in question
*issues on proficiency test and agencies involved in “DOH lab accreditation”

(2) Refilling stations
 
*The question on the proper monitoring of refilling stations by the DOH
*Sampling is done by refilling station owner, thus there is no assurance of sample integrity
*Labeling/mislabeling of bottled water containers; examples are oxygenated, ionized, iodine-fortified, etc.
*Refilling stations bottle their water; this is non-compliance of DOH rules
*Fly-by-night “Garage Negosyo”
*Use of recycled containers and tap water
*Contamination with algae especially when exposed to sunlight, giving  malodor and algal “lumot” taste
*The use of “spring water” which could have microbiological contamination, fertilizer and pesticide contamination
 
(3) Environmental issues

*Use of plastic PET bottles made from oil and natural gas which are non-renewable and may leach chemicals into the water
*Seventy five per cent of water bottles are thrown in the trash rather than recycled

hear ye.  i knew this for a fact; i have seen this with my own eyes. 

except for small bottled water as emergency drink when i'm on the road (bought only from reputable grocery stores and not from ambulant vendors) we have stopped buying those 5-gallon household bottled water for over a year now.

what we did is to install our own filter (2 processes) and boil twice the filtered water.  that's our drinking water.

Ayaw mog tuo nga safe for drinking ang mineral water.  Gisala -sala ra na sa sulod. Just the same as the water from the faucet. Dugang lang og gasto.
