Does
your Water Supply contain Drugs or Toxins
Scientists have
discovered Pharmaceutical Drugs and Toxins in the Water
Supply, Are you drinking this potentially dangerous
cocktail.
Water treatment plants are set up to eliminate certain
types of waste materials, such as pesticides, herbicides
and heavy metals from the water supply. They cannot
however cope, neither are they equipped to deal with
pharmaceuticals, as you will probably know, up to 90%
of drugs that are taken in to our bodies, is eliminated
by the kidneys and urine, so whatever passes through
our bodies, eventually end up back at the water treatment
plant and then in to our water supply.
Pharmaceuticals are just one of a huge number of toxins
and pollutants that are present in the water supply,
they can even contain the residue of DDT, which does
not break down for a very long time. There can be drugs
which could react adversely with drugs that you are
currently taking, the list of pollutants in water supplies
seem to be growing all the time.
It was brought to light initially by scientists in
Germany in 1997 and published in the Journal, Chemosphere,
when it was found that there were pharmaceutical drugs
in the water supply for Berlin.
A number of researchers agree that the concentration
of antibiotics in our water supply is currently 1000
times higher than it was in 1997, High enough to cause
the mutation of e-coli bacteria in to strains that are
resistant to the normal antibiotics, this has already
occurred in the United States and elsewhere.
When e-coli was first found at water treatment plants,
Time Magazine cover, portrayed e-coli running out of
a kitchen tap or faucet, it has also been found in swimming
pools.
A serious threat to public health could develop if
the e-coli became resistant to most antibiotics through
mutation. The continued use, or misuse of antibiotics
can in time only lead to the ability of our Immune System
to see us through any serious medical condition. If
your Immune System is functioning efficiently, you will
stand a fighting chance. In today’s environment,
with so many toxins, pollutants and other threats to
good health, it will make sense to not only eat a healthy
diet, but also take nutritional supplements especially
designed to boost your immune system.
Evidence of pollution in the water supply is everywhere,
a scientist discovered in Lake Mead, which supplies
southern Nevada and northern Mexico that the water contained
so much estrogen; it was causing male fish to produce
female egg protein.
Another scientist discovered that the broad class of
antibiotics in drinking water has a toxic effect on
human DNA. It was also found additional cases of medication
resistant bacteria are continually being reported. The
reason? If bacteria encounter just enough antibiotics
to irritate it, without killing it off, the bacteria
will mutate and become resistant to that antibiotic.
Please remember that you not only need water to live,
but you also need it to help you feel well. Headaches,
fatigue weakness and other health conditions may result
from not receiving sufficient supplies of water. The
more that you push your system, the more body fat that
you have, then it is only natural that the more water
your body will need to function efficiently.
