The caution says specifically that purified, filtered or otherwise water from municipal water supplies should not be considered safe. I don't have the links right now as we're on the road, but I'm sure it has to do with inconsistencies in processing. Very fine filters and sophisticated sterilization would be required. Spring water, on the other hand comes out of the ground pure and makes a short trip into the bottle.

What is the best water to drink? I have been on the big 3 for 22 months and one Dr says bottled water is ok and the other says filtered water from the fridge. What is my safest bet?

I am probably being over cautious, however for now, I am boiling all water before using it....be it tap water, purified water, spring water or and distilled water.
What I found.
When I boiled Great Value (Walmart) Spring Water, in a good old fashioned Pyrex Glass Pot, what was showing in the water during and after reaching the boiling point was white mico particles that were floating in the water and also clinging to the sides of the pot. Not having noticed it, so far ,when boiling purified or distilled water in the same pot .....meaning I did not see or have white particles that were floating in the water or clining to the sides of the pot.
I wonder...of course if it is just Great Value (Walmart) Spring Water...??
Maybe the brand makes a difference or where or what Spring they get their water from????
Any thoughts about the white micro particles..... as to what they might be??? Calcium???
I used that water on my plants with being concerned with what I saw.
