A Word On... WATER
It is hard to imagine that it is said that there is no more or no less water on the earth since the start of time. If this correct, this means we are drinking the same water as the cave men and animals of the past did.
Water should have no taste or odour! If you detect either of these it is natures way of warning you that you may not be compatible with what you are about to consume. Although the water may be safe, a difference in taste alone is enough disturb the natural flora of your body. To ensure your water is always safe, you'll need a system that will remove the chemicals from town water and dirt, herbicides, pesticides, etc. from unknown water sources. (These chemicals, which have been positively linked to cancer, A.D.D., and many other illnesses, are slow and silent killers. SEE 'A WORD ON... Chlorine') The other major concern in both chlorinated and un-chlorinated water, are the unknown levels of harmful bacteria. Bacteria can bring near instant discomfort and illness.
TOWN WATER. The authorities have to add more and more chemicals to balance the added pollution. They also have to add enough so that the home furthest away from the plant is adequately protected, which means the homes closest could have an excessive amount of chemicals. Even if the water is in pristine condition when it leaves the treatment plant, the quality is quickly reduced. Burst mains, cross connections, backflow are some of the problems that plumbers are aware of, but the general public are not. A major concern to all water authorities that use chlorine, is that when it combines with the dirt and debris in the water mains it reacts and forms TRIAHALMETHANES- {THM's} which is proven to be a cause of cancer.
TANK/CREEK/BORE WATER. Air borne contamination can pose a major problem with the spraying of herbicides and pesticide, as with animal's feces and dead decaying animal life. As with town water, if chlorine is added to a tank to destroy bacteria, it can cause THM's also. GIARDIA and CRYPTOSPORIDIUM- {the Bali Bug} These were hardly heard of in Australia 10 years ago but if you travelled to Asian countries you were generally told- "Don't drink the water!" These parasites or cysts are the reason and now they are becoming quite plentiful in Australia. The problem is that these are not destroyed by any of the additives used by the councils.
The fact is that the water authorities are doing the best possible job with the technology available to them. Their commitment to us is to supply clean bacteria free water without harming us. They have "guide-lines" to follow set by the WHO- World Health Organisation. Some water authorities state "there is no need to install a water filter; and in fact if you do you could be harming yourself because they breed bacteria" {which is correct} Now if they suggested to install filters they would actually saying their water was not acceptable. However by saying that a filter breeds bacteria they are saying that the water has bacteria in it! {Which is correct!} (SEE 'A WORD ON... Biofilm')

Over
the past century's, the earth has managed to 'filter' and re- condition the
water we drink. As our planet becomes more polluted and at the same time, more
populated, the earth is increasingly struggling to provide us with fresh and
balanced water as it has in the past. Now-a-days we should treat our water like
electricity- it is bought to our homes- it is up to us to make it safe.
