Is Your Tap Water Making You Sick?

Unfiltered water contains dirt, rust, lead, chlorine, fluoride, dioxins, parasites and other contaminants than can be hazardous to your health.
Water is essential to all living things. The cleaner the water, the more likely it is for you to not have to suffer from dangerous contaminants.

Water coming straight out of taps from the faucet can carry dirt, rust, lead, chlorine, fluoride, dioxins, parasites and other contaminants. Almost all sources of surface water contain microbiological organisms like bacteria and viruses. Unless these organisms are removed, they can cause outbreaks of waterborne diseases and illnesses.

Board Certified Physician's Assistant, Kristine Blanche, PA-C, reveals the reasons to use a water filter, the side effects from the contaminants in your water and the multiple ways for you to get clean, purified water.
