Can't believe they compare Dasani and Aquafina (= tab water) with the real sources water in bottle !! OF COURSE YOU WILL FIND ALL THE TAB CRAP IN Dasani and Aquafina!!!!!!!!!!!!
When will the same "study" will be done for tab water and talked about in the media 🤔? I guess it will NEVER happen 😅😂 I prefer plastic over tab water chlore, fluor, pesticides, antibiotics, hormones and other mix of drugs residues !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please revisit this with the recently released studies.
Go through each water filter and tell us which one filters the most microplastics that they all advertise they do
LOL i guess it is only about "bottled" water…….. soo in America we get our milk put into "plastic milk jugs"

Did i miss it or isn’t tapwater tested here? 🙄
They found many different types of medicines 💊 in water because some people throw away medicines into the toilet or sink now days!!!
I always drink tap water, I collect the plastic bottles and get 10c deposit on them, enough to pay my household bills & lunch every day 😊
So mention of the toxic chemicals for in tap and bottled water? Just focus on the plastics and nothing else? This is why people turn away from mainstream media, it’s nothing but pure lies and half truths, always with an agenda to push.
wouldn’t we just crap those plastics out though?

It would have been nice to hear about the dangers of fluoride
I am watching this first time, after 5 years.
They are right. In some cases, water from your sink is better than bottles water. Even Fiji. I was curious about this last year. When i noticed the city water tasted like chlorine. And the person who lived there said, i tasted chlorine when i first moved here too. But i don't taste it anymore. Guess im used to it, he said. So i ordered a TDS meter. Measures the number of solid particles per one million water mixture particles. Fiji water tests at 120ppm. My home tap water in the country side tested 88ppm. Better than Fiji water.

why would anyone drink bottled water filled with pesticides, solvents and microplastics, when you can just distil your own water?
Health Canada states not to drink tap water and as for bottled water 💦 its all toxic . Acidic and oxidizing to the human body ‼️
