  • Artesian water (Fuji) is from deep within volcanic rock, the water is filtered through layers and layers of rock. Fuji sucks the water out of there and straight into a bottle and flys it throughout the world. I can not even drink Aquafina, Dasani, or Nestle because they taste disguisting. Tap, Fuji, or Deer Park for me. The FDA regulates these sayings and so if it says Spring its from a Spring. If it says purified drinking water is it refiltered tap water. Artesian water it is from inside earth.

  • @liliceman79 Thank you so much for this information! It is very helpful. I would still be concerned about the spring and fiji waters being bottled in plastic (for health and environmental reasons), but it's always good to be educated and know for those rare cases where you wouldn't have access to clean tap water. Thanks again!

  • You should check out these 2 videos by 'ReeceJones87' entitled "guide to life clarity: don't drink unfiltered tap water" (there are 2 parts)

    you may really take something from it :)

  • @jessomglol Thanks! I'll check it out!

  • Great video, thank you!

  • @TheSilverDubber You're very welcome! Glad you liked it :)

  • I had literally no idea about this. I actually might stop drinking bottled water.

  • Have you researched how most cities in the United States fluoridate the water supply? Fluoride is a poison that reduces your IQ and gives you all kinds of cancer and harmful effects. This is the government's way of chemical drugging the population to dumb us down and allow us to be indefensible against tyranny and invasion of personal rights.

    P.S. Great video!

  • I did a report on this and wrote a speech on it...basically you just summed everything up perf. And tapped is on Netflix...jus sayin.

  • Your video is better than the rest about tap water. You deserve more views.

  • Your so cute Tamera, I love your video!.

  • OMG you just inspired me. This will be my new topic for my speech class. Thank youuuu :)

  • I agree that the best thing to do is to not buy bottled water... I used to drink it until did research about it myself for a project AND realized how badly they are hurting our environment, which your video also said... so thanks for making this! People should really just buy an $8 thermos instead of paying $2 for every water bottle for the rest of their lives.

  • @TheWiseDisguise Well there are many arguments for and against fluoride water. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention claims that it is beneficial (claiming that fluoridation of drinking water is one of the 10 greatest achievements in health) However there have been studies that show that this isn't the case....as I'm sure you will point out. Science hasn't really given us a definitive answer (as is usually the case) Usually there is proof for both sides.

  • @1993pie Fluoride is more poisonous than lead, and almost as poisonous as Arsenic. It reaks havoc on our health and is responsible for dental fluorisis, and decaying of the tooth enamel. I believe that fluoride is poisonous altogether, but for those who support it, it can be argued that it is beneficial when applied TOPICALLY - Not drinking it!!! Drinking fluoride has NO benefits and MANY risks. I used to get many cavities until I stopped using fluoride toothpaste and now I never get cavities

  • @hamiltino Flouride is also good for teeth (yes it is toxic, but we do need it in trace amounts along with chlorine...key word: TRACE) I'm kinda bummed out that that it was removed from our water.

  • Some of your arguments are kind of iffy to me but I agree with the overall message sent. Oil+Garbage produced+Unregulated Corporate Greed=trouble.
