I just finished reading this interesting article “5 Reasons To Not Drink Bottled Water“. This article caught my eye as I have to admit I do drink a lot of bottled distilled water. I have always prefer distilled water as I found its taste is more pleasant (free of chloride and fluoride taste of tap water) as well as it is supposedly healthier. This article gives 5 reasons why we should not be drinking bottled water. The main reason is bottle water is simply not value for money. While water costs less than 1 cent per gallon, we are paying an estimate of 5 cents an ounce. If you still think 5 cents is nothing, then compare that gas which is only at 2 cents per ounce.

Advertisers have drummed into our head that bottled water is healthier and cleaner. According to this article, bottled water is NOT healthier than tap water. Bottled water is just… water. Moreover, more bottled water means more plastic which turns into more garbage, which is harmful to the environment. After reading this article, it really makes more sense to buy a good water filter.
