I think its wise to do so.

Good point about water increasing our basal metabolism. Water is truly the medium of our life processes as virtually all important metabolic conversions need it. And that 3% increase ain't something to sneeze at - over the course of a year, that equals roughly 4-5 pounds.

Now for my plug: As long as everyone is going to drink enough water from now on, you might as well make sure it is good quality. In some places, that could mean tap water. But for most of us, we will need some form of purification. No need to spend a lot of money on the bottled stuff. There are now many low-cost and long-lasting systems.

I am convinced that there are few such investments that pay the same health dividends, dollar for dollar. Heavy metal toxicity is one cause of neuropathy - that alone should hit home for all of us. The list goes on and on. I urge everyone to consider this valuable investment in their own health.

Well said Rfinney, in my part of the world, our water [whats left of it ] really isn't to bad straight from the tap, but it think it tastes a lot better when you boil the water first in the kettle, let it cool down of course, poor it into another container stick it in the fridge.
" Another benefit of water "
Anyone suffering constipation through some of the PN meds, try boiling the kettle up, poor yourself a cup when its cool enough to sip go for it, but don't get to far away from your toilet it works better than anything else i have tried.
