    Foe the kast 20 years I have always had a reverse osmosis drinking water system. What would ever make people think that their drinking water is not full of toxins? The environment is full of them so of course the water is also.

    We have our well water tested, since me and my son are allergic to certain chemicals. I also send bottled spring water to school with my daughter. Yes I even had the bottled water tested.

    Tested for what? The comprehensive testing of water for the thousands of toxins it may contain costs a huge amount of money. Don't you think You would be better off buying a RO system and then you can be sure your water's good. You don't have to buy any more bottled water either.

    If she knows what they're allergic too she only has to test for those things.

    Funny that they're so concerned with swine flu and saving our children from it but can't be bothered to provide safe drinking water.

    Well that's just not true. Most of our drinking water is contaminated with over 1000 chemicals that are bad for everyone. Chlorine is the wonder chemical that makes it possible to have municipal water systems but I don't want to drink it. It's very cancer causing among other things. A good 5 or 6 stage drinking water system assures you that your kid is getting as pure water as is possible. I used to sell them and a lot of people spend more on bottled water of dubvious origin.
