I live way out in the boonies. I am way too far from the city now to have city water, so I have well water that flows to my shower and sinks. This water isn't treated with floride, but to my knowledge no one has gotten sick from the well. The water is very hard and a lot of people who use the well use water softeners to treat the water before they shower or wash clothing in it, but I don't. It certainly tastes better than the city water I grew up on. Should I be concerned about the safety of my well water and the lack of water treatment? Could the extra minerals be bad for my hair or general heath? Shoul I be concerned about bacterial and fungal growth in the water?
