Question:

What are the adverse effects of consuming bottled water?


Answers:
The worse thing that will happen to you by drinking bottled water is that your wallet will shrink quickly.

It only gets tested ONCE, municipal supply is tested 24/7, it's also a rip off to pay $1.25 for a bottle of 1 cent worth of water.

Physically, there are none, unless the water is contaminated. If there were any adverse effects, we would have heard them by now since that's what a lot of people drink nowadays.

You don't get drunk....haha

But there should be little effect except in children. I think a lot of local water companies add Flouride to water. That helps the teeth get stronger. I think there's bottled water with Flouride added back for kids now though.

Otherwise, no harm...it's water. But too much really can kill you by oversaturating your body. But that takes a LOT.

the price that you have to pay for it....and tap water is actually cleaner than a majority of bottled water.

bottled water is just filtered water. nothing special about it. tap water is actually better for you

The adverse effects drop dramatically if you don't consume the bottle.

other than the fact 80 % of it comes from recycled water from gray water.

To the person above, ALL water is "recycled".

The water cycle means that water is basically neither created nor destroyed, and every time we eat or drink something we are basically taking in what was once dinosaur pee.

well none really but the plasic if kept too long or reused can become toxic

It doesn't contain fluoride to help protect teeth and the expense when you can get it for free from the tap.
