What brand of water do y'all drink?

STOP LYING TO YOURSELF AND GET SOME REAL WATER BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE. YOUR BODY HAS ABSORBED SO MUCH TAP WATER THAT IT MADE YOU BELIEVE IT'S ACTUALLY GOOD:confused:

LMFAO, all jokes as side it's prolly cause your state invested so much into their tap water.
looooooool! :dead1: My body ain't lying, tap water is good bruh! yeah they probably invested quite a bit.
 
I drink tap water. People found that weird what's weird drinking from your kitchen tap?
You are lucky you live in the MidWest with clear water, but still consider either boiling, or filtering; just pick up a water jug with filter from WalMart. Could you imagine drinking London tap water? It is poisonous full of deadly microorganisms viz.
salmonella, amoeba, and eColi even after stringent treatments.
 
Heavy metals in drinking water: Occurrences, implications, and future needs in developing countries

Conclusion: "This paper investigated the state of research on heavy metals in drinking water to date. The paper focused mainly on the occurrences and variability of heavy metals in drinking water, their sources, exposure, health effects, treatment, and the critical gaps that are need to be filled to supply safe drinking water. The literature to date has demonstrated that exposure to heavy metals through consumption of drinking water is almost unavoidable. In particular, people in small and rural communities and individuals are vulnerable. Exposure to few heavy metals (e.g., As, Cd, and Pb) is a pressing issue due to the significant risks to human health. Co-exposure to multiple heavy metals must be carefully studied for synergistic or antagonistic effects."


Ultra-low cost cotton based solar evaporation device for seawater desalination and waste water purification to produce drinkable water

Abstract: "Steam generation using solar energy has been impractical for years ascribable to its low efficiency. In recent years, interfacial heating of water has been touted as the practical solution to harvest large scale steam generation. In this paper, we present an extremely low cost candle soot coated cotton as an ideal floating absorber to generate highly efficient steam using the concept of interfacial solar heating. The floating absorber was synthesized from traditional household materials and a photothermal efficiency of 80% was achieved under 1 sun illumination. In addition, the novel floating absorber is easy to fabricate as it requires no sophisticated laboratory instruments or expertise. The floating absorber was tested for solar desalination of actual sea water using a homemade solar still where the purified water had salinity levels comparable to other drinking water levels like tap water, packaged drinking water and so on. In addition to the salinity levels of water, the purified water obtained from water purification of sewage was tested for bacteria colonies and no colony forming units (CFU) were present which again suggests the obtained purified water being drinkable. The results of this work should motivate further research in simplistic, low cost photothermal materials and its application in the production of clean drinkable water."

Yes, albeit desalination is a rather costly process; Singapore mastered it, and of late, some Khaliji nations have been experimenting with it. That US military station occupying Palestine has developed some of the best. And there is a company in Somalia, which has been researching it for a few years.
 
But UK tap water tastes horrible? Is drinking it still better than plastic bottles though?
I think the UK got relatively good water-treatment regulatory processes to filter too many health-concerning elements (elevated metals concentration and no concerning contamination) in the water. One can say that even on top of the carcinogens, bottled water goes through purification that removes excessive amounts of needed minerals (calcium, magnesium, and potassium are essential for bodily functions).

I am not knowledgeable about the quality of UK tap water walaal.

However, I'd suggest using a reverse osmosis portable water filter instead of... since it removes the taste and odor of tap water πŸ™ƒ
