Pass Up Those Plastic Bottles

. . .  and use our new Beyond Health Water Bottle!  Not only is bottled water expensive, but its quality is often no better than tap water, and the plastic bottles it comes in are bad for your health and bad for the environment. Although some are worse than others, all plastics leach chemicals, and both the plastic bottles used for single-servings and the big 5-gallon polycarbonate water bottles leach hormone disruptors, like bisphenol-A (BPA).  Meanwhile, our environment is littered with billions of pounds of used plastic bottles, only 25% of which get recycled. Bottled water is also about 2,000 times more energy intensive to produce and distribute than tap water. The best approach is to treat your own water and use your own water bottles. Unfortunately it's been difficult to find a water bottle that doesn't also leach toxic chemicals. Until recently, the only bottles I've been able to recommend are glass bottles, which are heavy and inconvenient. However, I've now been able to approve, and we now carry, the Beyond Health Water Bottle , a stainless steel water bottle that meets my safety standards for carrying drinking water, and it's lightweight and easy to use.
