A bottle of Nestle Pure Life water.I use a Brita pitcher and washable bottles. My husband buys his water. You need to read the label carefully, or you may be paying for just tap water.

Words to watch out for are:

  • distillation
  • reverse osmosis
  • ozonation
  • deionization
  • filtration
Words to look for are:
  • Artesian water/Artesian well water
  • Well water
  • Spring water
I decided to check out this bottle of water. It could come from either a deep protected well or the public water supply. There is no way of knowing. The water is purified either using reverse osmosis or distillation.

I'm going to show my husband this tonight. I think he will change his mind about buying water, or at least change the brand.
