Default Re: Tap Water, what info am I missing?

oh, de l'eau plate !!! I see

This is only normal that some people buy some bottles of that water. It is meant to have all the minerals in it and be good for your health when it comes from whatever source up there in the mountains.

Still water would be for me the tap water, water as dead as water can be ... no nothing left in there from all the purifying process...

That's an interesting point Sada, I can vaguely recall a report about the increasing amount of bottled and filtered water being drunk affecting cardiac health. Calcium is necessary for many functions in the body.......calcium wasn't the only thing mentioned. sadly it was about three years ago and reported in the Bangkok Post.

It's a cultural thing- my other half buys bottles of any type of water and never ever drinks tap water. I drink sparkling water, tap, Brita for the tea (and kettle!)... but feel still mineral water a bit of a waste of money and drinking time, prefer water/ uisce purified by a still!
