What's in your water?
Consider A Home Water Quality Analysis Test

Municipal Water is Regulated
One of the best moves you can make for your health is to insure that the water you drink is clean and safe. The federal Environmental Protection Agency requires that all municipal water services give their customers an annual Consumer Confidence Reports (CCR).
However...
A recent study by the independent service at Consumer Reports has revealed that of 25 largest U.S. City municipal water systems studied, only three claimed to have no federal water quality violations.
Each sample tested had some quantity of contaminants, including:
Even well water may be contaminated
If you are drinking water from your own (or a shared) well, you may have your own unknown threats.
So, to satisfy your interest and curiousity, you should know what (may be) in your water. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is on our side on this one. Check out this website to find your source for the annual Consumer Confidence Report for your area:
Visit Environmental Protection Agency to find your local CCR Report.
Visit Suburban Water Testing Labs to schedule a water test analysis.
Bottled water solution?
Before you run off and buy some more bottled water, please understand that bottled water is even less regulated than any municipal water source. And it is my personal position to avoid bottled water when I can and drink my filtered and alkaline ionized water.
