Lead in water is dangerous for health.

Lead poisoning can cause damages to kidneys, liver, nervous, reproductive, cardiovascular, immune and gastrointestinal systems. It can also cause insomnia which can affect one's work and family life.

The water that we are being supplied by governmental agencies contains lead levels in excess of the EPA maximum contaminant level. Lead, in larger quantities, is considered a metabolic poison and causes people many untold ills.

Lead consumption in childhood can lead to a lower IQ and impairment in reading, writing, math, visual and motor skills, language, abstract thinking and concentration. Exposure to the toxic metal may contribute to crime and anti-social behavior in children.

Another element found in water that can cause many ills is MTBE. It is a chemical added to gasoline to reduce carbon monoxide emissions from automobiles. MTBE has, throughout the years, leaked into ground water.

It is important to drink quality water to prevent the side effects of these toxic metals. When it comes to your health, the quality of your drinking water is just as important as the quantity.
Insomniacs should drink plenty of water during the day to stay hydrated. Water is our internal cooling and temperature balance system. Dehydration can lead to increase of toxins in your bloodstream and can cause irritability in your physical levels of comfort and becomes more noticeable at night. Drinking water throughout the day can flush those toxins out of the body. A healthy body is a more restful body!

Most of the tap and well water are not safe for drinking due to heavy industrial and environmental pollution. Toxic bacteria, chemicals and heavy metals routinely penetrate and pollute our natural water sources making people sick while exposing them to long term health consequences such as liver damage, cancer and other serious conditions. We have reached the point where all sources of our drinking water, including municipal water systems, wells, lakes, rivers, and even glaciers, contain some level of contamination. Even some brands of bottled water have been found to contain high levels of contaminants in addition to plastics chemical leaching from the bottle.
