Is bottled water better for you?

People are debating on weather bottled water is safer than tap. They are saying that it really isn't, it may taste and look better, taste better and be more portable than tap but that doesn't mean it is overall better for you. Bottled water according to the National Sanitation foundation, bottled water is regulated by the FDA, which than created water-quality requirements that bottled water must meet. There is a system called the EPA for public water and the FDA's regulations are close to the EPA, but both are not required by either agency to be 100% free of contaminants. Tap water can also carry pollutants with it in the pipes carrying led. You can also always get your pipes tested. Basically every water you drink weather it be from a bottle, a filter, or a sink should be safe. I feel that this article is very important because water is a very important intake for humans to help us function. We do not want to be drinking something that could potentially harm us.
