I was going to suggest reverse osmosis as well. Here is a site that explains it well:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_osmosis

You can't get away from everything that is out there. You just try to do the best that you can. I have a friend who has been eating healthy along with her husband and hopefully doing everything right. Well, about three weeks ago, she found a lump and it is an aggressive form of breast cancer. She had a biopsy and lots of staples and stitches and a port, etc. So now she is dealing with chemo and will have radiation and all that it entails. She was healthy and there was not any breast cancer of any kind in her family at all.

Now here she is with great fatigue from it all along with hair loss (she shaved her head before that happened), nausea (has drugs for that), trouble with her eyes which is supposed to leave after the treatment is done, and any number of things. She tells me that she now can understand a little of how fatigued I must be, and I am. She takes around four naps a day. And this was a healthy person. After all the treatment, she will be on a certain pill for a long time and hopefully this stuff will not come back again.

I have read about all of this before but now I hear abut it and see it first hand. It is something that I do not think that I could go thru. I hope that I never, ever have to make that decision.

One never knows what's around the corner and maybe that is good. I believe that most everyone does not get out of this world without something wrong. A person could make themself sick worrying about everything.
