5 Types of Water ... Are You Drinking Poison?

On one hand, we are told by health authorities, both local and federal, that municipal drinking water supplies are cleaner and healthier than ever. Yet there are reports, usually buried within documents not readily available to the public, indicating that major problems still face us — and that they may be worsening. My special report, ”Is Your Water Fit to Drink?” reveals what you need to know today.

In it you’ll discover:

  • There Are Nasty Bugs In Our Water
  • There Is Lead and Other Metals In Your Drinking Water
  • Bottled Water is Not All It’s Cracked Up to Be
  • The Best Waters For Your Body

With the massive industrialization following World War II, hundreds of thousands of new synthetic chemicals were manufactured. Tons were dumped in lakes, streams and rivers, almost with total abandon.

Over the years, scientists and biologists discovered that a significant number of these chemicals cause cancer in animals and humans.

The most significant carcinogens include:

  • arsenic
  • herbicides
  • pesticides
  • fungicides
  • industrial solvents

Like many pesticides, the chlorination of drinking water can lead to the formation of chloride-organic combinations, many of which have been shown to be toxic to cells and cause cancers.

Carefully done studies have shown higher rates of colon, rectal, and bladder cancers in areas with chlorinated water supplies. It has been suggested that 5,000 cases of bladder cancer and 8,000 cases of rectal cancer per year could be attributed to drinking chlorinated water.

There has been new concern over the dramatic rise in industrial compounds and pesticides called xenoestrogens, which act like estrogens, infiltrating water supplies. These compounds interact with estrogen receptors much like natural estrogen. The concern is that they may increase the risk of breast cancers, cause early and over-development of female sexual organs, impair male sex organ development, and adversely affect brain function.

In my special report, ”Is Your Water Fit to Drink?” you’ll also read about the 5 different types of water, and how to make informed decisions about which to drink. Go Here Now.
