The Crystal Springs in the US only delivers their water in those polycarbonate

hard plastic jugs.

I am unsure what kinds of water they sell to individual grocery chains, as

they have quite a few lines and kinds of water.

As my community uses flouridation, and as we have some strange colors in our

toliet bowls...and the neighbors have it too, until I can afford a full water

system, and also desiring the alkaline water, I find this is safest thing I can

do now. Whether I see it or not, many systematic infections, whether fungal or

bacterial, have their start in municipal water supplies. People who are immune

compromised tend to hang onto low levels of spores and contaminates unlike

others with healthier guts. I have a feeling, up in Canada, things may be a tiny

bit better in some ways, then what we have here in the US. I may be wrong,

Carol, but honestly, I trust Canadian tap water more than I do tap water here,

for what its worth.

Flouride bonds with minerals, trapping them so the body cannot use them.

Crystal Springs makes a flouridated water that is cheaper, and I am wondering if

that is what is carried in the stores. The harder the water, the thicker the

plastic must be as well, so that leads me to believe this is soft packaged

water.

After spending a fortune on having bottled water delivered for four years from

Crystal

Springs, Ontario, Canada, I disovered our Costco was selling the really big jugs

for $2.79

each.( I've been weight lifting for a few years so I could hoist those babies on

my own)

My monthly bill from our Crystal Springs was about $28. Medium jugs delivered

are $7.00

each not counting the bottle deposit. Now I use tap water for cooking and the

bottled one

for drinking. I tried every brand of spring water in the supermarket and the

only one that

actually tasted better was the Fernbrook house brand from Costco.

I was concerned that it is in soft plastic ratrher than polycarbonate but when

Crystal

Springs in Ontario discontinued their medium sized bottle, I was stonewalled as

their 18

liter one was too heavy for me to lift. Now they too have switched to soft

plastic so no

reason to use their services. That money buys six pounds of good pecan halves to

make

into nut flour.
