Dr. Oz and the Scoop on Your Drinking Water: Arsenic, Fluoride, and Other Toxic Substances
Dr. Oz has an expert from the EPA on his show today talking about the safety and the health risks of plain drinking water from municipal sources.
Meeting the current standards is far different than protecting your long-term health…
Even when the EPA allows so many parts per million of any heavy metal like lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, nickel, or other contaminants; that is no assurance that your health is fully protected nor is it acceptable to those of us who see people with toxic levels of chemicals and pollutants from drinking water causing all kinds of health problems.
Whether it’s in your water, the air, or the soil; you are at risk when you consume these substances – even in very minute quantities. Just look at all of the deformities and abnormalities that have appeared over the years… It’s up to you to err on the side of caution, instead of just accepting a regulatory agency’s policies that are part politics and part science.
Not only are adults facing degenerative medical problems due to arsenic and mercury among others; but children will have to deal with these substances lingering in their bodies for a longer period of time which can lead to health complications that doctors and scientists and politicians have not even imagined thus far.
Dr. Oz and How Healthy Is Your Drinking Water?
Guess what? The EPA standards just are not good enough for those of us who choose genuine Wellness!
No, we have water filtering systems and we drink distilled water as well as cooking with distilled water. I don’t consume any water that comes from a tap…period!
So it all depends upon how much YOU value your health. If you don’t really care, then you can rely upon the EPA to keep you from immediate complications or ‘adverse’ effects to your health. If you truly cherish your health and well-being; then you won’t trust the regulatory agencies to do enough and you’ll take measures into your own hands to produce purified water.
Emerging threats to the municipal water supply became another topic for Dr. Oz and his guest expert. They ‘monitor’ it now, but it still goes on and on and on. Medications, birth control pills, drugs both legal and illegal, and many toxins get into the water supply that affect the human body in ways that scientists barely understand, let alone are equipped to regulate or manage.
It’s a major health issue that every human being must grapple with now and in the future. Water is as precious as gold, perhaps more so. You owe it to yourselves to be absolutely vigilant in your acquisition and consumption of pure water.
