I'm not sure what is in Bottle Water,
but I was watching DR. OZ and he said by law, The people who bottle the water
don't have to tell you what's in the water or the source of the water.
He also went on to say there are tons of chemicals added into the water
that aren't disclosed.
Could be what you suggested, don't know.

at very least,

at least it not FLOURIDATED!

in the meantime i found it this was a trailer for a documentary called 'Tapped'.

official site found here
Tapped the documentary

the site IS selling a dvd though.
might offend some on here but if the info in the vid is valid, it's truely shocking.

at least to me it is.

i think flouride isn't your biggest problem when they've found radioactive material and arsenic in bottled water.

anything more to add?

The chemicals that are used to make the plastic bottles also seep into the water therefore making it toxic. It is very dangerous especially for women to drink water from a plastic bottle that has been stored for some time due to the carcinogenic pct's etc. These are known to cause breast cancer. Men also need to be aware.

indeed to add.

bottle water - are we talking about spring water, or purified filtered water? like aquafina?

i would be shocked in aquafina, or 'all' bottled water is at rist for aresenic or radiation, as the OP content suggests.

the vid says that they sell you whatever dream you want, when it comes to the origin of the water.

Well I'm still here and have been drinking bottled water for years

Aquafina is fluoridated tap water.

Plastic has been used for quite a while now. It's no doubt bad for us - but exactly how bad?

I'd like to see some proof of actual adverse effects due to the daily usage of plastic.

that's all you got to add?

there have been people smoking for yeays, KNOWING it's bad, yet they're still here?

come on, i know you can do better then that.

please watch the documentary.

There are plenty of posts on ATS concerning BPA (Bisphenol A). Doing a quick search will yield you a nice list of threads.

Probably why the elites drink that expensive bottled water that is in glass bottles.

not only plastic..

according to this study
Bottled water

the Pacific Institute estimates that the annual consumption of bottled water in the U.S. in 2007 required the equivalent of between 32 and 54 million barrels of oil

quite shocking if you ask me.

so i take it nobody has the time to watch a documentary?

quite an eye-opener so far.

i've never said that and you can't prove that.

else i'm inviting you to back that statement up.

it's not only about the plastic, just the watch the documentary for god's sake.

have you even watched the trailer?

since you're drinking bottled water, as am i, i though you'd be more interested.

Everything is contaminated to some degree these days, with some chemical or another.

Some water samples may be more contaminated than others, or have certain contaminants while others may contain different types.

There are too many variables involved to just say "Bottled Water is dangerous". Everything is dangerous to some degree or another.

The only way you can REALLY know for sure what you are drinking, is to have sophisticated and expensive equipment to run your own tests and find out for yourself, what actually is in your glass of water today?

Most of us may not want to know what is in our water, food, air, etc. But I do.

If we know what we are being poisoned with we can find antidotes or other types of treatments in order to rebuild our physical constitution to a healthy level. Can't mitigate damage if you don't even know it's happening.

Not really, according to the fellas above everything can now kill you, just live your life...

I remember hearing about this a while back and couldn't help but thinking of people sitting in there houses, bottling water from there tap and selling it as "spring water" etc.

who knows?
