Muzarella Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) Last week I was hiking, and stopped by a mountain waterfall to drink water and rest, and I cannot avoid to think about our new reality, and in the old times. A while ago I found online a research about bottled water, telling that it is not healthy, because not only do not contain any of natural nutrients that natural water have, it is more acidic than natural water and can also cause cancer. In my very young times in South America I remember to drink water from the faucet,and later using a inexpensive ceramic filter to clean water coming from a water tank. Now, practically everybody just drink bottle water, and I do in Thailand most because it is s cheap house delivery, but it is not at restaurants or markets. The research online, also tell about the billions that corporations are making selling bottled water, and its becomes more lucrative for Coca Cola, Pepsi, Nestle, etc, than any other product.

Popular Post HeijoshinCool Posted February 12, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 12, 2015 Stupid analogy. Of course wifi would be easier to get. It's not tangible. And who acts like nothing is wrong with the world?? . I think it's a very good analogy. In the States, a bottle of generic water inside a 7-11 costs 8-10 times as much as a gallon of gasoline outside. Go for the "good stuff," and you'll pay twice that. But then, Evian spelled backward, is naive. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h90 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 "because not only do not contain any of natural nutrients that natural water have, it is more acidic than natural water and can also cause cancer" yes brainwash....... water in bottles doesn't loose any natural nutrients.....just buy mineral water. More acidic: nonsense Cause Cancer: the plastic in the bottles are discussed, that is true... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Issangeorge Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Most restaurants I go to in Thailand are Thai family run restaurants, they usually have a couple of bottles of water on the table, and then a picture of free water, that comes from the large bottles you can get delivered to your home for ฿10 a bottle. I always drink that water, but my Thai Wife always drinks the bottled water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

infinity11 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 (edited) I am more concerned about the plastic as mentioned, PBA or something like that, and fluoride and chlorine to name a couple more.

Loptr Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 The irony is that drinking water from plastic bottles does more harm than anyone realizes... Which is the real reason people are brain washed into buying the stuff... http://www.livestrong.com/article/183101-the-negative-effects-of-using-plastic-drinking-bottles/ Harmful ChemicalsPlastic drinking bottles contain many chemicals, some of which interfere with hormones in the body. These chemicals include bisphenol-A, or BPA, and phthalates, among others. Chemicals in the plastic can leach into bottled water, especially when exposed to heat or when the bottle is old. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benalibina Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Interesting topic question. It is one I have never given much attention in life. This until something happened in my life a couple of years ago. In short....my kids were being manipulated against me. Upon witnessing I did not link it to manipulation/brainwashing. I blamed it on myself. Absence. Some months later I stumbled upon the topic of manipulation/brainwashing on the internet. Started reading about it and slowly I realised that it was not me to blame but the caretakers/mother of the children. Last year I knowingly have seen the effects of it all. Devastating, to be honest. The example OP has given and some replies show that facts, truth, are subjective. They can depend on a person his personal point of view or access to limited info. Many people lack any/some amount of critical thinking. This has something to do with education but more with a mindset. Truth is the truth.

VIPinthailand Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) parent, TV, school tax, you must drive a car, own a house, have a f... wife so she can sue you later, and you must have babies to be happy. and a good paid job, and hollydays and a iPhone 6. when young guys say they must follow the system, I said it s not true, you don't have to be what they want you to be. it should not be expensive to live a simple life, now a new born baby has already 80'000 $ debt to pay right before to be kicked out of the matrix. this is ridiculous! this world is totally mad.
