Interesting post Vitaman! If I'm not drinking filtered tap water, I drink Trader Joe's bottled water for its more Basic PH (health and inflammation decreasing benefits). There's a video somewhere where 12 different bottled waters (and tap in their area) were litmus tested. Trader Joe's beat out all the other high end brands.

Interesting side note - There was a study a few years back that tested radiation levels of source water around the country, and the water source in the med center has one of the highest levels. I'll see if I can find it.

It's not good to take everything out of water.
Drink that clean of water and it will leach minerals out of your body and you will piss them down the drain.

The expiration date is for the store or other vendor to know when to pull it off the shelf.

I drink bottled water, that is, sparkling water, because I like it.
If i want regular water, I get it from the door of my fridge.
I just happen to prefer carbonated water and it keeps me from drinking genetically modified high fructose corn syrup; that they make almost all sodas with. I do not drink diet drinks as that is just adding more chemicals to your body and everybody that I see drinking diet drinks are fat. I do not have a thing against fat people but I believe that diet drinks make your body think you are getting sugar and it fucks up you body.r

NORM naturally occurring radioactive material is possible in ground water and possible heavy metals, which are further treated for human consumption if they want to consume. What I find ludicrous is the label natural spring water....

Carbonated drinks are different story over time has side effects...but does the body and the system good if you feel bloated ...at times or digestion issues....

Like the topic consumable water is going to be one of the biggest issue we will face in times to come...investment in water is defiantly a plus..

I think the market capitalization of bottle water will increase from 20 billion to upward of 30..,though the margins may be low but acceptable...ijs.....

I drinck only distilled water, or rain water, and only pure-grain alcohol.

+1 Chicago boy on rainwater. But depends on where you are at. If its city the rain water may have potential impurities due to acid rain or other saturated particles in the atmosphere. This applies to city though. I have used rain water during high adventure, these are rain forest or up in the mountains, but I filtered them using cotton cloth and then uv treated and gave some time to settle down. Just my approach . Love the taste and natural stuff to some extent.
