bottled water or filter water?

Question

is filtered water good for health? is it true that filtered water is as good as bottled water?

Answer 1

Bottled water a lot of times comes from the same tap that your drinking water and shower water comes from..

If you add a filter to your sink (or if you feel really froggy) add a house filtration system, then you're getting cleaner water then if you bought bottled water. Mainly b/c you'd KNOW it's filtered. I think a few years ago 60 minutes did a profile of the major water bottlers, and it was found that some of them were basically using the same water that gets pumped into the homes in NYC..

brita filter pitchers are cheap..

Answer 2

Bottled Water

Answer 3

The reason for either is to keep bad manmade chemicals or too many ground water minerals out of your body. Filtered water is only as good as the filter you use and what contaminants are in your water in the first place. It can be great or it could be missing things its not designed to filter. Bottled water is a consistent source of pure water, but read the labels. Some are better than others. You'd be amazed what's in some of these "spring" waters.

Answer 9

It depends on the brand of the filter, Pur and Brita filters are awesome.

Answer 10

Always distilled reverse osmosis bottled water for me. I do not trust our tap water, or like the taste of it.
