Is Tap Water Safe To Drink?

Politically speaking, tap water is safe and anybody who dares say it’s not safe will be persecuted. So, I’m not going to tell you whether tap water is safe or not safe, but I will give you some hardcore facts of what you can find in tap water and you make your own decisions as to whether or not you want to drink it.

Let’s start out with issues, which the city has to deal with before they dare give you the water, which they receive. The first issue is you must be able to drink the water without immediately getting sick. That is concern number one.

And what could be in the water that could cause you to be immediately sick? Bacteria, of course! So the city is going to do something to kill the bacteria to ensure that you do not get diarrhea, vomiting, or any other illnesses. In America, it is by law required that they must use chlorine to kill the bacteria. While this may not be true in other countries, this is certainly true for this country. The powers to be would want you to believe that there are no other choices but chlorine. But the truth is, hydrogen peroxide, ozonation, electrolysis are but a few different methods that could be used to clean up the water without the usage of chlorine.

So what is so bad about chlorine?

Chlorine is a powerful oxidant and is used in bleaching and disinfectants. When chlorine combines with organic matters such as plant juices, crushed bugs, and other organic materials, these organic materials bond rapidly with chlorine to form chloro-organic materials. In simple terms, these are all known or suspected carcinogens. Cancer causing! So, you can see why many countries choose not to use chlorine as their primary water cleansing chemical. But chlorine is cheap! So this is why it is so widely used.

So that’s issue number one. Fortunately, it’s very easily removed. A decent size carbon filter, especially a carbon block filter, which is commonly sold as an ice box filter, if you use two of them, back to back, this will take out the chlorine out from the water 100% and will make the water taste incredibly good.

But 68% of the cities in the United States also add fluoride in the water. This is a whole different ball of wax of nasty politics. First of all, fluoride is not placed in the water for the improvement of water quality. As a matter of fact, it is classified as a contaminant that is deliberately added to the drinking water. Now what’s so wrong with this picture here?!

They tell you that fluoride will harden your teeth. It’s a true statement! But do you think for a fraction of a second that Mother Nature would not have built your tooth with the exact correct hardness and toughness? In other words, hard enough to bite through bone, but tough enough not to chip or fracture. The same thing goes for your bones. You want your bones hard enough to support your body weight, but tough enough so that if you jumped off a 3 foot stand, your bones could flex a bit and not shatter and break. So you see, it’s critical that your bones are just so hard and just so flexible in order to properly perform the functions that they were designed for.

Now, we’re going to add fluoride to make your teeth and bones harder than they were intended to be so now, 25% of the population drinking 0.8 parts per million of fluoridated water will develop dental fluorosis which are white spots on the teeth, which are actually weak spots on the teeth, not strong, but weaker.

And what about the bones? Well, they too are now harder and not stronger. So, you start hearing people who have drunk fluoridated water for 50 years, now in their 60s and 70s or 80s and they try to get out of the chair and their hip fractures because the bones are too crispy.

Let’s apply some logic here, the enamel on your teeth is the hardest substance in your body and the fluoride that you drink can influence this surface as to how it is growing. Now, what do you think fluoride can do to the rest of your body such as the cells, the tissues, your metabolism, your growth rate, your hormones, which regulate your growth rate. Don’t you think that all of these things would also be influenced by the fluoride? Did you really want to harden everything?

Listen, this isn’t rocket science. You should be able to think with this data and come up with the conclusions as to whether or not you want to drink tap water.
