Hot out of the oven..... Tap water





(Adapted from: dosomething.org)

* Please continue to read this blog article.


Note: Living Better Cafe is bring you Fresh out of the oven news, that you're going to love. That no other blog source will ever take you close into the story. I say more good reasons to love L.B.C, not only are you revising original recipes. You're also making them more healthier for you, while saving money in the long run.



When it come to survival do you really truly understand what's in that glass, which your holding in you're hand right now. I know after reading this blog article it will have you thinking more then twice, before grabbing you're next glass of water from the tap.


About 300 million people in America get their supply of water straight from public water systems.

 As the other 15% receive water from private water systems not subjective to the government regulations.
 Most of our water contains fluoride, an salt compound that helps prevent cavities.
 While 780 million people lack access to improve drinking water supplies, and 2.5 billion people lack access to adequate sanitation.
Americans now use 127% more water than in the past, and about 95% of the water entering our homes goes down the drain.
As you may have not known some of the water pipes, laying underneath the ground still contains lead which is a very poisonous metal. Lead can cause a range of health effects, that includes behavioral problems and learning disabilities.
 Children around the age of six years of age, and under are mostly at risk because this is when their brain begins to develops.
 As there are over 2,100 known drinking water contaminants that may be in tap water, and in any given region.
 Which about over 300,000 groundwater sites in the us are contaminated, and therefore is harmful to human and animals. So does that really make you really wonder if drinking straight from the tap, is really worth the risk to you're health? Not to think about the lead your ingesting. So the next time your thinking about getting a cold glass of water from the tap, how getting a filter and putting a hold on the tap.
