The FDA does not care about your health, at all..REALLY.

Every drug you consume causes several other illnesses. This is done on purpose to make more drug sales. Look at any drug label and you will see. Then they make it illegal to have anything cure an illness except drugs. This is why anything that can actually help you will have a disclaimer, saying this all changed.

  There is also this misconception that tap water is clean. This is false. The two main chemicals in tap are chlorine to kill bacteria and fluoride which is claimed to be added to cleanse the teeth.

It's really just to dispose of it, there's some sort of regulation making it diffcult to dispose of due to toxicity, so they just put it in the water supply. People who drink it get depressed

The purification process does not remove the toxins in the water. There has been a huge array of drug residues in our water like antibiotics and even prozac, an anti-depressant drug that increases the risk of suicide (WHAT?!).

There are two causes of all illness - toxins and lack of nutrition (this includes toxic thoughts or toxic habits).

Chlorine scars the arteries, cholesterol is trying to repair and gets blamed, but it is toxins that damage the body. Chlorine is used to kill living things, we ARE living things, it kills parts of our body. Of course it also causes cancer, but it kills you. Take enough of it and you will die. This is like eating a little bit of roach raid a day and diluting it in water. There are other ways to kill bacteria that aren't harmful, but they don't use those because it would decrease illness. 

Drink bottled source water, even the best filtered water is only 10% absorbable, the rest bloats the body. The best water period is from a clean living lake, rain water, or naturally carbonated spring water. It has to have NATURALLY occuring minerals, if they are not in their natural state you won't absorb them. Like iron in liver that the blood can't absorb and rusts in your body (next article).

Organic tomatoes are an excellent source of rehydration. Some people only drink one cup of water a week. It has all the minerals and nutrients needed and the water is 100% absorbed into the cells. Tap water is USELESS for complete hydration. This is why all water-rich fruits and vegetables are so important. You need both pure spring water and water from food.

And if you try to drink a lot of it to get it absorbed you end up excreting all your minerals and nutrients. Your body cannot absorb it. Perrie water and other SOURCE carbonated water is DELICIOUS. It has all the minerals needed for you. Mineral waters are important for remineralization but are not recommended to drink everyday because of the high amounts of minerals making the water "hard." Real water is balanced with minerals, is structured, and is nourishing. Anything less is a just a damaged type of liquid. This is the reason distilled "water" is so damaging. Fluoride is still in our water.

okay. so food i know. but, apparently, drink... not so much.

at 22 months, i can count on my two hands how many times isaac's had juice. (i think that's about to change fast, though! we gave him some vitamin-C packed mango/orange/banana juice from Trader Joe's to help his cold this weekend, and calling it a "smoothie" did not prevent an impassioned plea for "juuuicce!" this morning.) he's a water and milk drinker, that kid. and some herbal tea every once and a while. 

with all the water our family drinks, we tend to buy bottled. usually Poland Spring. but i've been feeling pretty guilty about wasting all that packaging, especially given NYC's reputation for great tap water (which is fluoridated). well, as it turns out, it may be a good thing we've been giving isaac bottled water since it usually does NOT contain (much) fluoride. 

this weekend, i came across an article called Are We Poisoning Our Babies and Children With Fluoride. i'm not one for fear tactics, so the title is a little much, but it's really interesting. the best part is this video.

 

clear and with data. very compelling. at least enough to do more research and talk to my pediatrician. if you want to do more research, too, here are some leads:

http://fluoridealert.org/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoridation
http://kidshealth.org/parent/growth/feeding/fluoride.html

if you decide to avoid your town/city's fluoridated tap water (figure out if your tap is fluoridated here), consider a water cooler instead of individual bottles to minimize packaging waste or, even better, a water filter that specifically filters fluoride. i haven't done enough research to recommend one yet, but this article--How to Remove Fluoride from Drinking Water--is a start. a google search for "water filter fluoride" brought up a bunch of stuff, too.
