What is Purified Water?
Of all the water in the world, only 3% is considered "fresh" and of that 3% most has been polluted by organic or industrial pollution.
Municipal tap water smells and tastes bad and containes significant amounts of contaminants so many people have turned to bottled water as a source of drinking water.
However, most bottled water is filtered tap water or spring water that has not been tested and is as unhealthy as tap water.
Only steam distiiled/oxygenated water is guaranteed 100% pure by the Food and Drug Administration and is considered by most experts to be the freshest and healty for your body.

How Important is Pure Water?
Good Health Requires Pure Water
For years most people have consumed tap water as a healthy drink but changed to bottled water because of the terrible odor and taste of tap water and the contaminants that remained even after municipal processing.But now the truth is coming out that most bottled water is little more than filtered tap water or spring water that contains organic or industrial contamination.
Purified water is a special type of bottled water that is 100% pure and healthy. Prepared by a steam distillation/oxygenation process, purified water is a great start toward a healthy lifestyle.
Drinking purified water, eating more fruits and vegetables as part of a healthy diet and adopting a moderate exercise program will increase your chances of leading a long and healthy life.
EPA and Tap Water - Protection or Coverup?
Beware of the False Sense of Security
Municipal (Tap) water suppliers are quick to point out that they are regulated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and, because of that regulation, tap water is safe to drink.Nothing could be farther from the truth.
The EPA merely sets arbitrary standards for contaminants in tap water and then tests against those minimum levels of contaminants.
But there is no scientific proof that the EPA standards are safe for your body. No one has assessed the medium and long term damage for lead, copper, arsenic, pesticides,MTBE, rocket fuel and other poisons permitted in tap water by EPA standards. And, the EPA has not even established testing standards for pharmaceuticals that are freely dumped into our water supply.
No wonder tap water smells and tastes terrible.
Go to the EPA home page and see for yourself. It makes interesting reading if you investigate it thoroughly.
As an alternative to contaminated tap water try purified water.
Tap Water and Challenged Immune Systems
Check the Fine Print
Almost every municipal water supplier reports that there water is absolutely pure and healthy for those who drink it.But when you check the fine print on municipal water reports, you will almost always find the disclaimer that tap water cannot be consumed by people with challenged immune systems.
This disclaimer is in the reports because the fact is municipal tap water is not pure and fit for human consumption. It is very dangerous for any who has a compromised immune system or any who drinks the contaminated water.
Tap Water-Unhealthy for compromised immune systems today- unfit for all immune systems tomorrow?
Check the reports!!
How Healthy is Flouride in Your Water?
Academics Take Another Look
Millions of Americans consume fluoride through community drinking water. Mainstream medical groups like the American Dental Association and the Centers for Disease Control have staked their reputation on fluoride, having long praised fluoridation schemes as beneficial for healthy teeth.But anti-fluoride activists say a growing body of peer-reviewed scientific evidence counters long-held assumptions about fluoride's safety, and they're turning up the heat.
In a recent study, the Environmental Working Group, a respected Washington-based watchdog organization, called public attention to a Harvard study that shows links between fluoride and bone cancer in young boys. That study, conducted by Elise Bassin, a Harvard doctoral student, stated that "among males, exposure to fluoride at or above the target level was associated with an increased risk of developing [the rare form of bone cancer] osteosarcoma. The association was most apparent between ages 5-10, with a peak at 6 to 8 years of age.
