I still see many of my patents carrying mega-sized, plastic bottles. Sure, if you drink a bottle or two, it will not kill you – when you are attend a company B.B.Q on one hot summer weekend, or while you are driving for a couple of hours – but carrying the plastic bottles everyday, especially those hot days, can be dangerous… heat and plastic do not go well together! You may have heard of the toxic chemicals, “BPA” and “Phthalates,” both of which are already banned in many countries, but not in U.S. yet. Heat (like when you leave your water bottle in the car) can cause these toxins to leech into the water you drink.
Here’s the great article about “bottled water risks” with easy to read CHART.
There are so many alternatives to plastic water bottles. Personally, I carry this bottle anywhere I go. You only need to change the filter twice per year. Easy enough! You can drink not only BPA- and chlorine-free, but also fluoride free water anytime, anywhere.
For Home Use -> Aqua True is the best!!!!! Very easy to assemble counter top model. This water filter is one of the best to filter all heavy metals and fluoride. The best part is you can change the filter once a year. I use at home and taste great. This was one of the best investment after I have used so many water filtering systems.
