Unorthodox news has been hitting recently more than ever before. It makes you question whether it’s lies that you are reading, or real truths that have been silenced for a long time. Earlier this week, I had someone tell me that water bottles were actually unhealthy for you. So, I decided to do my due diligence and research this for Korruption Studios. Here are the results of my research.
The problem with bottled water is the source of where they are getting this water from. Apparently, most water bottle manufacturers use filtered tap water which is misleading. In an article titled “Why You Should Never Drink Bottled Water Again“ It says that plastic bottles leach chemicals into water that they contain, such as antimony. Allegedly this can lead to nausea, dizziness, and depression. To this point, in my recent memory I can remember sipping some water from a bottle that didn’t taste all-the-way right. It did taste chemically active, which was very strange.
It’s obvious that plastic is also damaging to our eco-system because of how long it takes to be biodegradable, which is around 450+ years. Unfortunately, the leftover plastic has to be physically picked up as well. Animals won’t even consciously eat biodegraded plastic (which is good nonetheless). Not drinking water bottles could significantly reduce your carbon footprint.
Overall, water bottles could be unhealthy for us to consume; although, I won’t stop drinking them. There are many chemicals that water bottles are made with, which could be dangerous if consumed. You can safely drink water by making sure it doesn’t get heated, when water bottles get heat on them chemicals can get in the water easier. I don’t think it’s anything to seriously worry about, but it is important to be aware of.
