Guest guest Posted November 23, 2003 Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 And we regularly get notices from the city not to give our water to infants and old people or anyone who has a compromised immune system. Too much arsnic and something else (forgot). In addition, we have so much sulfur in the water that it stinks like rotten eggs- who wants to drink that? We don't even like showering in it! P.S. Maureen- I grew up in Norwalk, Calif and graduated from Excelsior High School! Alice The Loon RNY 12/28/00 > I received a disclaimer from our water district today. It states that " nitrate concentrations ranging between 0.46 and 2.58 parts per million--well below the state and federal water quality limit of 10 parts per million " are found in our water. It also states that " we did not complete all monitoring or testing for nitrates, and therefore cannot be sure of the quality of your drinking water " . I would rather not have any thank you. > Maureen RNY on 9/5/02 -260 now 119 BMI 46 now 21.1 Dr. E. ez, Norwalk, CA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 23, 2003 Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 Dear Lucille, I totally agree with you. Brooklyn water has always been the best. I lived there 40 years before moving to New Jersey (Jersey City, where I had the worst water in my life, and now Hazlet, where I drink tap also, but it certainly doesn't compare to Brooklyn). When I first moved here 10 years ago, I used to go visit my friends in Brooklyn, trotting into their houses with at least 1/2 dozen 2 liter bottles (empty, of course) so I could bring water home with me. Where did you live in Brooklyn? I have what I affectionately call my 'Brooklyn attitude.' No matter where I live, I'll never lose that attitude. -- live each day like it's your last... love like you've never been hurt...

Guest guest Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 Dear Debbie, Costco is similar to Sams Club but carries more products. I buy the Poland Spring. That or Deer Park are the two I like the best... Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 I just read the article on ionized water but don't think can afford one. Do any of you know if boiled water would be good?
