Water contamination feelsbadman

Soo I just got the mail and in it was the "Annual Water Quality Report" from the environmental services department, which I have never seen before. I've heard things about drinking water in general having traces of fucked up chemicals in it, but I've never actually seen first-hand an analysis of my water.

Turns out the following chemicals have been detected:

alpha emitters, radium, barium, fluoride (for strong dental health, of course!), nitrate, sodium, chlorine, haloacetic acids, trihalomethanes, copper, and lead.


I wanted to start getting into water fasting, but now I'm definitely having some second thoughts. (Even bottled water is said by the report to be vulnerable to contaminants such as salts/metals, pesticides/herbicides, organic chemical contaminants, and radioactive contaminants.)

Sounds about right. Most water has something in it. It does come from the ground or even worse the river. Where I am the city up river has a joke(or the old timers), flush your toilet *mytown* needs the water.

Looking forward to my well water next month. Tired of drinking and smelling that chlorine(forget if we have fluoride or not). Aside from that I could care less what things my water has. I just want it to taste good.

that's crazy man. it's amazing how you can taste the difference between tap water and filtered. the taste of it here is just slightly salty and bitter...i only drink the unfiltered if i have no other drinks on hand. usually buy a couple of these for 75 cents (and recycle of course)
