"Oh that tastes good, bottled water is so much better for you to tap water or is it? Hey certified Hydro Bro here, do you know about your bottled water? In 19th century America the bottom water industry was thriving, during this time many American cities were suffering from typhoid fever and a cholera epidemic. Once these diseases were identified as being waterborne, selling glass water bottles and dispersing clean water in big containers quickly became popular as it was the only means by which people could avoid getting these waterborne diseases. On September 27, 1913 bottled water was rendered unnecessary, this sudden demise was due to one thing, chlorine, why waste money on overpriced bottled water when I could get clean water for free in my own tap. Fast forward a century and now bottled water is back, alive and thriving. It's increased in popularity because people prefer the taste, the predictable chemical quality and the fashionability, but is bottled water really better for you? Here's a little well-known secret the bottle companies don't want you to know. More than half of all America's bottled water comes right from the tap - however many bottled water companies add minerals to improve the taste which gives their perception that bottled water is of higher quality than tap water, but bottled water can be 250 to 10,000 times more expensive than tap water and 90 percent of those costs come right from the bottle. A study from 2006 found that plastic bottles were leaching harmful chemicals into the water they contain, some of these chemicals have been known to cause nausea, dizziness and depression. If you do live in an area where your water is unsafe to drink, drinking bottled water may seem like your only option, however, there is one other option, a water filtration system.
