Is refilling and reusing a plastic water bottle over and over again with distilled or tap water bad?!


Question: Is refilling and reusing a plastic water bottle over and over again with distilled or tap water bad!?
Answers:
Yes!. The plastic reacts to the chemicals used to treat the water!. Have you noticed how the water tastes after reusing it for a while!. I use a filter on my faucet and use an aluminum or hard plastic container!. It's also good for the environment since you are not throwing the plastic bottles away all the time!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes, if you're using a evian-like and the "unbreakable" plastics!. The plastic starts to break down, notice how the bottle gets frailer with each use!. (chemicals get in the water) Aluminum is safe, reusable, eco-friendly, and body friendly!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, but every so often you should clean it!.
You don't want to get a cold, and then get better,
just to use something that has germs in/on it do you!?

There have been quite a few articles and news segments on this, there are carcinogens in plastic that can seep out over time and are no good for you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

buy a bpa free water bottle that is meant to be reused - this is my favorite one: http://www!.TitanWaterBottle!.comWww@FoodAQ@Com

not as bad as throwing three or four away each dayWww@FoodAQ@Com

You should clean it once in awhile!. A couple times a week at least!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
