Surprised, shocked, not the least bit surprised at the latest news. New tests are showing that in most cities and places that use well water, there are drugs in tap water, and no they are not the kind used to treat the water, but real prescription, over the counter, and recreational drugs.

How is this happening? We are the cuplrits - yes us! We take so many medications today, that they can’t be completely absorbed by our bodies and thus pass through our bodies via urine. Although the sewage facilities are treated, as well as water from reservoirs and rivers before they are funneled into our drinking water, these treatments are not able to remove
all traces of medications.

But we are protected by government standards aren’t we? Well, no actually. The EPA has not regulated this aspect of the drugs in tap water, so there are no laws that can protect the consumer from yet another deadly assault on our water supply.

That’s not all. Just today additional news stories include water tests raising questions in E. coli outbreak. Yes, a state in Oklahoma found baceria in a water well near a restaurant where people were actually taken ill.

In New Jersey news reports of one in eight private wells being contamined. This could affect a percentage of the 400,000 homes in the state that use these private wells for drinking water. About 12.5 percent of these wells were found to have a high level of at least one drinking water contaminant. So the stories go on.

This is not an acceptable scenario for any of us. Hence the need to the proactive and take your health into your own hands.

Now that you know there is a likelihood of drugs in tap water in your home what can you do about it. Get a water treatment system like many of the thousands of health conscious people today.
