You are a complete moron: consumed by big corporate lies.

Fluoride is in no way healthy to teeth or humans in general, we need to stop water fluoridation and avoid fluoride anywhere possible.

WRONG! bottled water companies often use tap water and therefore contain the same minerals found in tap water.. including fluoride!! AND, it might help your teeth a little but it does more harm than good! Most people don’t know fluoride is an accumulative POISON!! Even the FDA requires a warning label on the back of the new Kids Crest Toothpaste that reads: “WARNINGS: Keep out of reach of children under 6 years of age. If you accidentally swallow more than used for brushing, seek PROFESSIONAL HELP or contact a POISON CONTROL center immediately.” I agree that plastic is bad for our environment, but lets look at a more immediate problem; OUR HEALTH!!!

I fight the bottled water attachment everyday. It is great to see the awareness rising.
In my experience, many have an irrational attachment to their bottle that is like glue. When I present them the option of low cost pure water (reverse osmosis), I am often politely dismissed after proclaiming allegiance to their stupid bottled water.

I found this on another forum but think it will be helpful for you people reading this to look at.

people want fluoride-free water to drink because they know the stuff is deadly,(more polution damage claims than any other chemical)and that the idea of fluoridating water was put forth by
polluters desiring to whitewash their industries.In
“The fluoride deception” Christopher.Bryson spells it all out.
It reads like almost like an action novel. The first water fluoridation experiment in Newburgh, NY was actually a toxicology study done by a front for the Atomic Engergy Commission who was using Fl to enrich Uranium. The human guinea pigs thought it was for their health. Still trust your government? Stranger than fiction. Highly recommended.

Wake up… the government who puts these toxins in the water supply wants population control and to keep you too sedated and asleep to ever challenge what they do.
What do you think people did before their loving keepers added this to the water? Did all the children’s teeth fall out? You guys think your saving the planet but your just playing into the globalist agenda.

Think… now

Thank you for this post. We’re banning bottled water in our house, too, and talking about it to family and friends, spreading the word. Restaurants are more difficult…

Tap water isn’t always fluoridated, unfortunately. In my area there is no fluoride in the water because of local political pressure against it. That issue seems to inspire a lot of paranoia.

And I want to applaud you for talking about the benefits of fluoridation. Too many people don’t seem to understand that our clean, safe, fluoridated water has kept disease at bay and our teeth and bones healthy. I wonder how many young people will eventually have osteoporosis from drinking their bottled water too…

Once again you’ve nailed it, mr. craig. Ain’t nothing better than getting refilled with that icy pitcher of tappity taptap! And I’d much rather take my refillable pizza hut jug from 1989 on a hike, than some dinky little plastic bottle!!

I think the needless waste of plastic is in incredibly valid point, but to argue the pro’s of tap are because of fluoridation is inconclusive. Yes, fluoride has benefits for children’s teeth, but in toothpaste which they’re not swallowing. (Fluoride is absorbed into the blood stream through the intestinal track.) And secondly the history of fluoride has it dark connections, one of which being the well known historical fact that the Nazi’s used it in their work camps to subdue and quell their workers’, ummm….I mean prisoners.

Well, I guess it’s just a coincidence that 1/5 Americans High School seniors can’t find their own country on a an unmarked map, and that Miss Teen South Carolina could barely string a sentence together when asked about this, but at least she had a pearly white smile on her face when she looked liked a doomed deer in the head lights.

I recently gave up bottled water for the very reason of the waste of plastic and cost. I bought a Brita filter pitcher and it works great. I hate that everyone has become so dependent on bottled water.

Yay to anti-tap! Let’s all rebel against needless consumption. Okay, who are we kidding…glass water bottles are prettier than mass-produced/marketed plastic bottles. Go pretty, go green — win-win for the aesthetic environmentalist.
