Any videos out there that just get to the point? I want the cleanest and healthiest water. Which one do i buy?
Most people want to know why I make the recommendations that I do. But if you want the short version buy Reverse Osmosis water
I use 5 stage filter, Its glass,inexpensive,plus i add lots of stonesto make structured water plus i use km herbal minerals and humic and fulvic minerals
@@DianneLopez-po8stwhere do you get this glass filter?
Any thoughts on mountain valley water?
I got a 5 stage filter system.sturdiest one i found,from amazon,plus i put stones on top to make structured water
I wish water could be purchased in one gallon glass jugs like wine. I don't want plastic or aluminum in my water
Why not get a Reverse Osmsois system and fill up your own water bottle daily waterestore.com/products/hum-water-saver-75-gpd-reverse-osmosis-system-brushed-nickel-faucet
Mountain Valley Spring water sells it by the liter, 1/2 liter, 2 1/2 gallon, and 5 gallon glass bottles.

How come no one talks about the toxic plastic that the water is in ? And if the water bottle has set in the sun the more toxic it becomes just like the k cups it doesn't mater how good the coffee is once it is ran through the k cup it becomes toxic
It would be cool to see you do a tier list of these and other water companies.
(taste, packaging, water source, additives, PH, hardness, and other things you covered)
Something unique that I've never seen anyone do and informative at the same time!
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll put it on the list
Presence of PFAs
Icelandic glacial water 💧 is definitely my favorite ❤️. They have this at the Barnes and Noble cafe.
Excellent video Gary! Glad to have come across your channel
Thank you, I'm glad too. Please share video with frineds and family.
Yeah, but can't you just say which ones the better water?
great video, i was actually curious about this. fiji water used to be my favorite, but ive stopped drinking it since i installed my ro system
Glad it was helpful! Are you pleased you went with the RO for your family?
They had to install a RO system for drinking water out at the plant where I worked, we were on the very end of a 50 year old city water line.Even had holding tanks and booster pumps because by the time it got there it was only 20 PSI. The pumps boosted it up to 60 PSI😲😲
RO contamination has made many cruise ship customers very sick. Virus particles and other tiny organics pass right through the membrane. Switch to steam distillers with carbon pass thru to capture distillable zenes and you have a much purer product.
@@LarryButler-kp3se which kind do you use or do you have any recommendations? 🙏🏽
I'm very happy I found your channel Gary , Thanks for the very wonderful information you share. 👍👍
Thanks for watching. You may want to also check out my new water bottle video here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Icelandic is the best of these IMO. Especially cold.
That's up to you, at least now, after watching this video, you know more about that and the others.
Nestle is the best
Thank you for this video. I've heard distilled water (which has zero TDS) is not good for human consumption. What do you think is the minimum TDS for drinking water to be safe for people to drink on a day to day basis? In ppm please.
Great question! 20 ppm or there abouts would be the lower end for daily consumption.
Correct distilled water actually leeches minerals from your body. Now if you're gunna die if you don't get some water distilled is safer than a dirty puddle that'll give you the runs and vomit
Thank you for your amazing work.
My pleasure! Please check out my newest bottled water video here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Thank you for this informative video. God Bless you☺️
You're welcome, please share video with friends and family.
very informative video. so thank you for it, now what would you recommend when buying bottled water?
Reverse Osmosis water like Dasani or Aquafina
@@GarytheWaterGuythere own by Coca Cola and Pepsi, can you really trust them?
My favourite Perrier
I appreciate how thorough you are. Thank you for all the research you do. Some people don't understand how much work goes into these types of videos. Much appreciated Sir!
I appreciate that! Yes, you would be very surprised how much research, work and time goes into videos especially one like this
He definitely put a lot of work into the video and I appreciate the time and effort he put into this. Must have taken a few days or maybe even weeks
The house we bought had an r/o under the kitchen sink. We serviced it as soon as we moved in, it’s been my favourite feature of this house. Couldn’t live without it now.
You and me both. I couldn't believe how much more water my family drank once we installed ours.
Icelandic is the best water I've ever tried, the only bad thing is the cost of it. Thank you for the video
You're welcome. Please share video with friends and family.
I heard Icelandic was hard to come by in the stores. Where did you buy it?
Please note radioactive fallout from the Chernobyl meltdown passed right over Icelandic glaciers, not to mention fallout from Icelandic volcano eruptions...
Nestle is the best lil bro
I always drink from a natural spring in yellow springs Ohio but I mix it with Crystal Geyser spring water because the plastic isn’t strong tasting. The only good thing about Voss is that it’s bottled in glass
I felt the same way but I've been finding more Voss in plastic now.
Glass is better than plastic but only slightly
@@GarytheWaterGuy im curious why tho, why is glass still not a great material?
All containers leach into the water, glass much slower than plastic but it does still leach.
I always watch crime shows and i can’t remember which one but i saw where a murder in yellow springs. I had to look up who that was at. I’m in Gallipolis now but know Ohio pretty well. I actually think this spring I may take a little day trip to yellow springs.
I had one called Nordic I thought was the best, but being from alaska originally the mountain spring water is always the best.
Does mountain spring water come from Alaska?
Thanks for ending with the shipping problem!
Yes, that is the elephant in the room that no one seems to mention about so many consumer products.
I drink only distilled water it taste clean AF
Good to know. Did you check out our newest bottled water video? ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
What about San Pellegrino water? It is a very popular brand. I am surprised that you did not include it in your testing.
The bottled water I used is a representation. Judging by the comments there are numerous other waters I could have used which would have made for a very long video. If you watch the whole video you get a good understanding about how the types differ, what the info on the labels tell you and what alternatives exist.
Some of those brands I've never heard of. But, I live in a small town in Northeast Alabama and don't watch much TV. One of the more popular brands around here is Crystal Geyser Natural Alpine Spring Water by CG Roxane. I was a little surprised and disappointed that it wasnt on your list. I've drank it for years and find it the best for taste and it's the only water I use in my Keurig. Nevertheless, I feel very well informed about bottled water now. Thank you!
I'll check it out.
Pretty sure the exclusive use of CG destroyed a component in my Bialetti Moka Pot. When doing some research I'm led to believe this was due to high lime content, AKA high water hardness. I would be intrigued to see what CG is composed of, either way there seems to be a somewhat sketchy history of CG not backing up their treatment process and so on.
@@GarytheWaterGuy They have seven sources across the United states all located directly at the springs. In CA, mine is from sourced at Olancha, CA, close to Mt Whitney
Wow!! This was an Awesome video👍🏾
Glad you liked it!! Please share video with friends and family.
Thanx man usually i go for fasting i needed best water for keep my fasting this is best video
Glad you liked it, please share video with friends and family.
Just finished watching the whole video and learned a lot about different types of water 💧 from watching it.
Glad to hear that you found it usefull. Please share video with friends and family.
Watch for the sequel coming soon!
The last I heard, in recycling... you can't recycle box - type containers that have a wax or thin shiny plastic coating. So on the box type water (No names) can not be recycled. It's impossible to separate the wax or plastic from the paper box that's coated with it.
I thought the same thing. Boxed water says it is so, but I doubt it.
I truly appreciated the information you provided in this video. But I am disappointed you didn't include aqua panna water. What are your thoughts on this one? Obviously, their option in the glass bottle would be the better choice.
Funny you should ask, my newest bottled water video tests that one, the video is here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
You got a new subscriber! Great video. Very informative.
Awesome, thank you! Please check out my new bottled water video here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
FIJI water has one the highest, if not the highest, silica content of any water, which I believe is why the TDS numbers are so high. For me, that is good news, I want as much silica and minerals as possible.
If that’s what you want, sounds like you found your solution
I only drink Figi water. It's the best tasting water imo. And keeps me hydrated.
I'm surprised that right after you talked about the dangers of sitting in a plastic bottle during long transport times as with fiji water, you made no point on the next water voss being packaged in glass, yet you still pointed out the long transport times. So, Is there any benefit to water being packaged in anything other than plastic, and what packaging would be best, if not simply the least harmful for bottled water?? Thank you!! And I love that ending: which bottled water do we drink? None of them! hahaha!
All things being equal, water packaged in glass or cans or boxed water are less likley to increase their microplastics level from absorbing their container as they would be in a plastic bottle.
@@GarytheWaterGuy thanks for the reply. However, all things ain't equal. I would point out that the box, being paper mostly, is lined and coated with something probably like plastic to help protect the box's form. Therefore I would imagine box water poses a similar threat. As for metal I have no clue what happens with that water trapped in metal, most likely aluminum, if that at all gets into the water after long travel times and exposure to heat. And we know aluminum is harmful if taken into our body. I see glass then as the safest alternative to packaged water. Thanks for helping me figure this out!
Great informative video, thanks for sharing with us. Are u familiar with ozonated water and could u talk about it?
I don't like anything to do with ozonated water. Ozone is a very powerful disinfectant and I don't want that in my water. Did you check out our newest bottled water video here? ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Thank you, wow that was amazing!
You're so welcome! Please share video with friends and family.
So what’s the best bottled water? The title of the video is misleading
It really isn't. The best bottled water if the reusable water bottle you fill at home from your Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water System and take with you. At the end I share what the best bottled water is that I buy when travelling and I can't refill from my home system.
Can you please do a review on WAIAKEA water been drinking it a lot recently from what I’ve read it seems to be naturally alkaline and the water flows down from the Mauna Loa volcano where it then flows over porus lava rocks that filter it. I got this info from there website but since im not a professional water expert hence why I’d like you to look at it.
I'll definitely check it out. Did notice that it is very expensive, does that concern you?
I see Waiakea at the dollar tree sometimes I see Flow as well if I don't get Flow I get Waiakea
Great Info thanks
Glad it was helpful! Check out my newest bottled water video here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Is reverse osmosis good to use with a well and water softer system? We have one installed at our sink and ties to our fridge like you have but the water comes out cloudy and once settled it will look clear.
Yes, absolutely, that's how it is in my house. Let it run until the water runs out and then let it refill.
I stay away from plastic bottles love liquid death but as of late I’ve been drinking WAIAKEA water which comes in reuse able bottles made of some type of metal plus the water is Hawaiian Volcanic water and taste great it is pretty expensive but taste better than VOSS to me
It sounds like the container material is influencing your choice. I woder how important that is to others?
I Love Waiakea 💛
Thank you for mentioning, which bottled water will clog Keurig. Good information to know if you don't want to descale your Keurig machine very often or for it to break, and be replaced overtime by using the water.
Great tip!
Which brand clogs Keurig?
@@jenniferbaptista2112 Basically brands with too much minerals like Fiji water. Simply don't use hard water in Keurig because it will clog the machine, and may eventually break it overtime to the point that even the best descaling methods won't fix it, and Keurig machine will need to be replaced. Less descaling and no need to replace Keurig machine often if you use the right water. Machine will last for years. I still have one of the OG Single serve Keurig machine working that has been discontinued. I had a second one that lasted for years before I eventually had to replace it with the updated single serve model.
Great content. Thank you 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it! Please share video with friends and family
I tend to drink Waiakea, Dasani, Life, Smart and Aquafina.
Waiakea is the most interesting, to me. It's delicious and also has the softest feel I've ever experienced with a bottled water.
I'm looking forward to trying Waiakea myself.
Smart water is thw worst water ya can drink, definitely healthier drinking tap water than smart water. Why they sell a water with that bad of a PH is beyond me.
volcanic water has the most nutrients dont matter if it comes from hawaii or new zealand
WAIT! Fiji actually list the fluoride that’s in the water. I appreciate their transparency, but that kinda defeats the purpose of not drinking tap water. SMDH
Yes, I wish they all were more transparent with their labelling
This video is an eye opener!
Glad you think so, check out our most recent one here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Hello great video very informative. Question does the filtration system your family uses, does that get rid of any carbon dioxide. My body is sensitive to carbon dioxide. Last question if I were to use water with your filtration system and wanted to make it a sparkling water, can I without using carbon dioxide? Look forward to hearing what you say .
I don't know. I can't find any information that says it does so i would say no, it does not.
So Gary if you were to ever have to buy bottle water, which one would you feel the most comfortable consuming / recommending?
Toward the end of the video you'll see a picture with my wife and myself on vacation drinking Reverse Osmosis water - either Dasani or Aquafina. Occassionally Smart water.
@@GarytheWaterGuy
Just heard UK banned DASANI because of bromate
That Dasani is just tap water
I dont trust FDA
GUESS I WILL KEEP LOOKING
@@GarytheWaterGuy Dasani is banned over seas & Aquafina is tap so I’m back confused
i tried every water and poland springs taste the best for me especially when cold
Dasani turns yellow
The music drove me nuts. I watched about 2 minutes of the video and had to take an aspirin.
Sorry to hear, first complaint about music on this video.
Must be the water that you drink that’s making you nuts
@@GarytheWaterGuy I have to agree that it makes the video hard to watch. In general, a little bit of music goes a long way. There’s just no reason to have it be constant under a video. That’s my opinion, anyway.
Just curious, what type of water did you drink to swallow the aspirin?
Gary is the man he’s out here doing the lords work 👌🏾
Thank you! Please spread the word by sharing videos with friends and family.
I’ve installed two under the sink reverse osmosis systems however when a towns water contains high levels of manganese and does not have their own good treatment process the filters clog quickly and it becomes very expensive very quickly.
The best solution would be a water softeenr to remove the manganese in the whole house including the water going to the reverse osmosis system, or as you say, changing the filters more often. waterestore.com/collections/water-softener-1?pf_pt_product_type=System
Kirkland Ionized Alkaline purified Water is excellent. Don’t taste the bottles like many other cheaper bottles. It is a PET material and BPA free.
I have never heard of it but it sounds like if you beleive water with a very high pH is good for you it would be a good choice. I wouldn't buy it for my family thoiugh.
Kirkland water is 7.0 Alkaline
Hey Gary! Super informative video thanks. I went down a rabbit hole researching drinking water today and this was such a helpful video. Just curious, would contamination from the plastic bottles show up on the TDS score? Or is this undetectable?
Glad it was helpful! Yes, the TDS goes up the longer water sits in the plastic bottle and it can be measure. You might want to check out my new video on bottled water here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
@@GarytheWaterGuy great to know. Thanks for your reply! 🙏
I subscribed to your channel after watching this video. Takes a while but I’m planning on watching the whole entire video.
Yes, sometimes these longer ones need to be watched in shifts.
Thank you for this video, very informative, however I’m still little confused on what’s good for us to drink some of us don’t know what a lot of this is so we know what to buy
I suggest you buy Reverse Osmosis water brands like Dasani, Aquafina or Smart Water.
Keep in mind that Reverse Osmosis water is tap water that has been further purified. The video explains how they work ua-cam.com/video/Quy_Mg87Tsk/v-deo.html
DO YOU SUGGEST ALSO TO INSTALL A REVERSE OSMOSIS WATER SISTEM?@@GarytheWaterGuy
The best tasting bottled water I ever tried was Danish Spring water. It came in a carton, rather than a plastic bottle.
It was very sweet to the taste,
And I cannot begin to tell you how many hangovers it cured for me while I was living in Germany. I have yet to find its equal.
Interesting! Is it availalbe in North America?
@@GarytheWaterGuy
I have never seen it here.I lived in Germany for 6 years. That is where I discovered it.
It was my "Go to" for hangovers...
And I had a lot of Hangovers in Germany.
Your blood sugar is low. Drinking sugary drinks will help recover from hangovers. That was NOT pure water.
Sweet Tasting huh? That shouldnt be how water taste like
Not like sugary sweet, It was just a very pleasing taste, very clean and refreshing, after a night of drinking German beer. @@candles6103
Well technically you really shouldn't drink Dasani water. It's pH level is acidic.
Dasani water has a pH similar to lake and river water which, if polution free, is perfectly acceptable for humans. Your body automatically compensates for the pH of whatever liquid you drink. Lte's not forget that coffee has a pH of around 3.0, tea 4.2 and grapefruit juice 2.9 which is far more acidic than Dasani water.
You might want check out this new video of mine on the topic ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Yeah I had a seizure drinking disani water, be careful....
Can the water break down the plastic lining inside of the aluminum bottles? such as Proud Source and the new aluminum smartwater bottles. Would the best water to drink be waters like Sedona Spring water which comes in glass?
Water, breaks down everything eventually, even glass. But it will break down the plastic more quickly than glass.
God bless you for this video!!! ❤❤
You are so welcome! Please share video with friends and family.
I'm surprised you did not review "Mountain Valley" spring water. I've heard it's the best spring water available and is only sold in glass bottles. That's currently all I drink but its very expensive (about $33 for a 5 gallon glass bottle) I go through about 15 of them a month, so it gets pretty expensive.
I've considered a home RO filter, however, my wife feels there is no way to get the good minerals back into the water, like you would find in Mountain Valley spring water or some other good underground spring and without those minerals the RO water will effectively leach out the existing minerals in your body like distilled water supposedly does. Curious what your thoughts are on this.
Also, you mentioned several times that high sodium in the water is bad, however, you also mention adding electrolytes to your water is ok (which is high in sodium). I've even heard some people take straight Celtic Sea Salt or Himalayan Sea Salt for their electrolytes. But again you are saying water that contains sodium is bad, can you clarify this?
I've never heard of Mountain Valley water, who has said that it's the best? I would necourage you and your wife to watch this UA-cam video about Myths and Misconceptions especially regarding the mineral content. ua-cam.com/users/liveWJ6bRqiFIFM First of all Reverse Osmosis does not remove all of the minerals, only 90%. You can always add a remineralization filter to add back some calcium, if that is what you prefer. There is no leaching of minerals from your body, again, that is a myth. High sodium is bad and I prefer to get my electrolytes from the foods I eat, which is where 95% of all minerals we need come from anyway. IF you want to add electrolytes you can , but I don't do it for my family and don't recommend it for yours.
@@GarytheWaterGuy Hi, so you’re the water guy and never heard of the most popular water right now? The mountain valley it’s according to many people that actually care about their body the best water out there. If you can review it it would be really helpful.
I also want to get a filter to save money, but I believe mountain valley it’s the best one out there. Have you heard about kangen water filter? It’s very expensive but it seems it’s the best water filter out there, basically electrifies the water.
@@luciano8822 No, I have not heard of Mountain Valley bottled water, it is not available at any grocery store or convenience store that I checked and no one there has heard of it. You say it's the "most popular water right now", what makes you say that? Who are these people and where are they getting their information from that they beleive it is the best because "they actually care about their body"? I have found it on Amazon but at $171 for 12 x 1 liter bottles it is definitely one of the most expensive out there www.amazon.ca/Mountain-Valley-Liter-Spring-bottle/dp/B09TBJFQX8/ref=sr_1_5?crid=35ZGZLA4JXNHP&keywords=mountain+valley+spring+water&qid=1695654479&sprefix=mountain+valley%2Caps%2C147&sr=8-5 I did check their water specifications and ingredient label on their website but those tell me that the water is very close to most cities tap water, minus the disinfection chemicals of course. I don't see why this spring water is any different from a few of the ones presented in the video, like Fiji water for example. The point of my video was to caution the viewer to not fall victim to the marketing hype and believing that just becasue one brand says it is the best, that may not be the best choice for your family. I still feel you are far better off with your own home Reverse Osmsois drinking water system like this one waterestore.com/products/hum-water-saver-75-gpd-reverse-osmosis-system-brushed-nickel-faucet because they give you unlimited super pure water, they remove forever chemicals like PFAS, and microplastics as well as PPCP's and a whole lot of other impurities in the water that none of the spring waters remove. So I would think that people who actually care about their bodies would keep that in mind when deciding where to get their families drinking water.
@@luciano8822 Why do you believe Kangen is the best water filter out there? Why do you think electifying water is the best way to purify it? Kangen water filtration goes to great lengths to explain that their system is great becasue it increases the pH while it has never been proven that water of a higher ph is better for you. Do you really think that man kind was put on this planet to drink water that has a pH of 9 when all streams and rivers have a pH of 6-7? So no, I wouldn't buy into the Kangen hype and defionitely would not drink the water from their systems. this is what I recommend waterestore.com/products/hum-water-saver-75-gpd-reverse-osmosis-system-brushed-nickel-faucet
As physicians, having a history as water specialists - NO ENDORSEMENTS and NO AFFILIATIONS - we recommend only Mountain Valley Spring water. Interesting you never mention it. And for those using or considering R/O water, it is dead water, with low pH, no mineral content, and the systems cause a process that allows for bacteria build up that can make you sick. We’ve treated many a patient sick with a R/O source of drinking water. Good luck everyone, do your homework!
I will check out that very expensive Mountain Spring Water. This is the first time I have ever heard of a Doctor treating a patient sick caused by RO source water. What was their sickness? How do you know it was caused by RO water? Why do you call RO water Dead water? It is lower in pH than most tap water but about the same pH as lake or rain water. Do you not think mankind was originally meant to drink lake or rain water which are both low in pH and mineral content. RO water has mineral content, not no mineral content as you state. RO systems do not "cause a process that allows for bacteria build up that can make you sick", as you state, where did you get this information from? You might want to check out this video ua-cam.com/video/JOuE2U_oCPc/v-deo.html I do agree with you that everyone should do their homework and carefully consider the source of the content they listen to.
@@GarytheWaterGuy Gary, I bet you’ve also not heard of reversing osteoarthritis which we’ve done for 30 years as physicians. We’ve not heard of a lot of things until we have heard. R/O has never been natural to the human body. Water naturally wants to concentrate. When you reverse the flow, it deadens it. We have treated many patients (not just one patient but hundreds) who were sick from R/0 water. How do we know? We take them off of R/O water and put them on MVS water and their many health issues turn around rapidly. Skin lesions, colds, low immune, fatigue and other issues that plagued them for the years while they were on R/O clear up quickly. Not everyone would associate illness with the water they drink. Understandable. That is why I made the comment. Humans built communities around springs of water from aquifers. We no longer have many of these left as humans having become more and more ignorant about earth’s resources and how to utilize them, have destroyed most aquifers. Dew in the morning, rivers, lakes and streams were not the primary source of human drinking water. It was the source of water for land vegetation and animals as it is now. Humans have a very different process of cellular activity that requires water that has moved through rock and sprung from it with vitality. Most spring water is not drawn from sources that are healthy any longer and the treatment of the water is often lacking in sustaining water vitality. MVS uses only ozone and filtration. They monitor for bacteria (always a concern with any water) and they are in a pristine area. You have incorrect information about cost. If I go to a local health food store, I can get MVS (not mountain spring water as you called it, it’s Mountain Valley Spring water) for less than Icelandic or Fiji or Voss, just as examples. And delivery is even less expensive even though no plastic is used, glass only. We all know that water can make us sick if it’s not clean but cleaning it with point of entry systems and purification systems in general does not cause the mineral content to be good or the pH to be what our bodies need or the water to be able to flush out our cells and make our cellular pumps work optimally. The source of water is the primary key. Of importance, I’m saying that any source of water cannot simply be purified to be healthy. We focus on the source of the water itself and the use of methods that do not destroy it. An example: The common complaint about R/O water of those trying to choose healthy water is that 90% or more of the minerals are removed. Our concern is not the removal of minerals from water but that the source of the water is unhealthy to begin with. Mineral content, pH, purity and so on can be manipulated. The way the water effects our cells cannot be manipulated. The best sourced water will have the right pH, about 7.4, and good mineral content that assists the water as it moves through our cells electrically, clearing debris, and this causes all of the factors to coalesce to a level of vital energy required for the human body. Our brains and guts particularly require it over what plants and other land mammals require. We see a seething malaise over humanity, its not just the food and air negatively impacting us, it’s also water. When I was young I was interested in many varied areas of health. When I was 14 I read the seminal work Silent Spring, which along with a great number of health interests, led to deeper and broader understandings about human health. Much more to learn and implement, water being one of them.
MVS water is extremely expensive to most families. Period.
@@Surrealist_369 I do agree water should be healthy, from the source, and free. But we have destroyed our present day access almost entirely. Even municipal water has costs to the consumer as does well water. And cheaper bottled water than MVS is an option but how healthy is it? R/O and distilled is UNHEALTHY for drinking water. So it comes down to your priorities. I don’t know you but I know our patients and others. What do you value? Do you “need” new appliances, furniture, a motorcycle, electric bike, a new car, new toys of some sort, electronics, a vacation? How much do you spend on beer? Beer is much more expensive than water as is wine and whiskey. How important is your health? There is not one single area of immediate health that is more important than healthy water. If you think some filtration system on your tap water is sufficient, it is not. If you think your well water is good enough, it isn’t. Do you drink water put into plastic? Is your water from the source, barely touched other than ozonation and filtration? It really depends Surreal on your priories. If someone is on food stamps, get off the computer and internet and spend that money on your hydration. As someone nearly 70, having helped human beings in the capacity of multiple professional titles, I can tell you that those who succeed in health are the ones who set their priorities, empower themselves and their families, and become healthier - by leaps and bounds. Period.
@@ToddDouglasFox what's a practical solution? A filter that removes pharmaceuticals, metals, fluoride and bacteria is markedly better than tap water (I'm not referring to cheap pitcher filters or RO systems). I also use neodymium magnets to structure mine and try to drink from glass or stainless steel only. There's only so much you can do outside of living near a spring.
Great video! Can you tell me what's the name of the background music playing?
I really don't know, we source it from epidemic sound.
HELLO. CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT KIND OF CABLE IS USED WHEN A WELL IS INSTALLED IN A NEW CONSTRUCTION IN CAPE CORAL I TALK ABOUT THE CABLE THAT COMES UNDER THE GROUND TO THE SYSTEM. I UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS ROMEX BUT I DON'T KNOW THE SPECIFICATIONS.. THANK YOU...
I really don’t know. I would ask a well company
Out of all the waters I drank smart water is probably my favorite. Something about the taste is nice but I wanted to see what water is actually more beneficial for our bodies so this was enlightening. I watched a documentary that coco cola and Pepsi when they made Dasani and Aquafina since the water industry was already crowded they made their water “Cheaper” so third world countries would have access to them.
When you travel thrid world countries the safest water you'll find is reverse osmosis water
@@GarytheWaterGuy I'm in a third-world country (Honduras) and we have Fiji water in our supermarkets here too. I have not seen Evian yet. I guess Honduras is not as poor as some African countries to be fair.
3rd world is just a babel cursed trickster term! To create division projecting it straight into our subconscious every time someone mentions 1st 2nd 3rd world shit..
1st world's 'luxury' = 3rd world's riches plundered & explored, so who is truly rich... It's a filthy powergame!
1st world means those who put themselves first but do not deserve nor have honestly earned & burn up the world making sure to be the first last dont wanna hear see couldn't care less, only the best, if it's not too expensive...
@@santiastronomo as poor as according to who lol
@@coldhardtruth333 some african countries ARE poorer than Honduras, thats a fact.
fiji is my favorite
Good to know.
I filter my tap water with Zero Water filters, I enjoy Montellier lemon flavoured too.
Good to know. Did you check out my new bottled water video? ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Deer Park works for me. Glacier and Poland Springs also works.
And I just happen to review those brands in this video ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Why don’t you talk about how adding sodium bicarbonate effects the ph so some of these aren’t actually “alkaline” once they hit your stomach
Not something I know about but thank you for adding that info.
Everyone’s stomach is different…that’s why he didn’t mention it.
So basically pick your poison 😂
@Freedom-1775 probably not the water, my advice for you, quit using dairy products, but butter is fine
@Freedom-1775sugar maybe?
I had issues similar to yours, I quit sugar , dairy,& tobacco…… everything went away
Ice landic water all the way 🎉
What do you like best about Icelandic water?
@@GarytheWaterGuy it taste cool all the way thru clean taste
Well regarding acid reflux. I have been drinking Evian and mountain valley water since 2018 and I have been on reflux meds. I just quit cold turkey because i was tired of the side effects. Anyway, I started noticing symptoms coming back after drinking the "good" water. So I started drinking Ozarka and nothing. I guess cheaper water is the play
One of the points of this video is that not all water is the same, in fact far from it. It never hurts to experiment to see what works best for you and your family.
So basically we have the water source, the water process, the water bottling, and the water's distribution?
Sorry, not sure what you are asking.
No bottled water is good for you
I’ve been drinking pure life water for awhile now, to me it tastes the best especially for the price. Also I’m from Florida and the pure life here is from Lee FL from a deep protected well. It’s also purified by reverse osmosis or distillation. What you tested is obviously different from what we have here.
I also love Topo Chico sparkling mineral water, I love drinking this over soda with food.
I would check that if I were you. Nestle Pure Life is not Reverse Osmosis water, it is spring water
@@GarytheWaterGuy that’s what it says on the label.
Pure life is Nestle. Nestle basically steals (pennies on the dollar) water from many bodies of water. It's basically tap water in a bottle.
To become the largest food distributor in the world is not based on morals and truths.
@@MrMoonMath nestle are complete oligarchic grifters and scum
See what they did in Africa or how they basically steal water from plebs /municipalities in Michigan and California especially, but plenty of others as well
Go to the find a spring website
Florida has natural springs everywhere
Stop being stupid and giving money to oligarchic billionaires that hate us
Also you could likely drill a well very cheaply yourself,in the backyard, and consume " primary water "
@@MrMoonMath true. It’s there
Fiji water gives me stomach ache every time I try to drink it.
My family currently uses a reverse osmosis system now but we are concerned about the fluoride and heavy metals in the water. We were under the impression that the only way to remove the fluoride was through a distilling process. My question is will reverse osmosis remove fluoride and other heavy metals from the water?
Reverse Osmosis sure will. By the way if you want to check out my newest video on bottled water, it is here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Evian all day long. I love it
Hopefully the video helped you learn a little more about your favourite.
00:03 Choose the best bottled water for your family
02:05 Water TDS increases with mineral content
06:17 Fiji Water is a natural spring water from Fiji, processed through a carbon filter and UV disinfection system for safety.

12:19 Evian water has a high pH of 8.0 and high sodium content.
14:22 Electrolytes and calcium are essential for our body.
18:07 Liquid Death is a unique marketing ploy of putting spring water in a tall boy beer can.
19:47 Different water brands have varying pH levels and mineral content.
23:15 Dasani water has added back substances and a slightly acidic pH
24:58 Boxed water is a unique and eco-friendly alternative to plastic bottled water.

Nice tabs
Thank you so much
Good Info thank you
Glad it was helpful! Please share video with friends and family
Just want to know which spring water is the best to drink?
This video will help. ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
What a load of BS!
Curios as to why you say that?
What is your recommendation while on vacation when your home reverse osmosis water isn't available? Pitcher types? Do you have any comparisons for the pitcher type ie, Waterdrop, Brita, etc.? I'm assuming the filters determine the quality.
At the end of this video I comment that when on vacation my family drinks Reverse Osmosis bottled water.
Hey Gary, I live in an area of the UK with an extremely high hard water rating of almost 350, should I get a water softener? Can you get them for the whole home?
I assume that you mean 350 ppm, is that correct? Yes, a whole home one like this would be great for your family waterestore.com/products/hum-deluxe-water-softener-30-000-grain
@@GarytheWaterGuy Thank you Gary 😎 I just checked and the website was for calcium carbonate and it was mg/litre
@@GarytheWaterGuy OK yeah, I checked again and mg/l also equates to PPM
The stuff that comes out of my tap and goes into my reusable bottle. That's the best bottled water for me. 😊
You're welcome, this newer video on the topic might help too ua-cam.com/video/i9pI76dk4Zs/v-deo.html
I really like Dasani. I hadn't given much thought to what might be best for health, I just think it tastes better than other options.
Dasani is a good choice. Check out my new bottled water video here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Ozarka from Texas is very good...:)
It might be but when I put together this newer bottled water video, I ordered it numerous times and it never arrived. ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
I bought a moonshine still about four years ago. maybe five years ago, I've had it. And the moonshine is too potent. So instead I just use it to distill my water. So each night I distill a couple liters for the water that I'm going to use the next day, whether it be coffee, tea, and I feel so healthy. Plus I only use it to cook my food. I noticed you left out bacteria in the waters you test?
Yes, distilled water does remove impurities. No, I did not test bottled water for bacteria. That test is beyond the scope of the video and I would assume that all of these pottled waters would be bacteria free. Did you check out my newest bottled water video here yet? ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Nothing beats the water coming out of a 100FT garden hose baking in the dead of summer. Delicious!
Each to their own!
I have one more question. Is magnesium sulfate, potassium chloride, salt bad to have in your water?
Every mineral will become a contaminant at some level. Especially when it comes to salts like these.
How come nobody talks about crystal water? Like those glass with actually real crystals in it sometimes it has like rose quartz, and other different crystals
Never heard of crystal water. Can you post a link here?
I like fiji, crystal geyser and icelandic.
You're right about water being affected by plastic bottle, etc but tapwater isn't safe.
I cannot find voss anywhere anymore. I don't think I tried it, yet.
Thios newer bottled water video gives you more options ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
I like the information and testing and results . I like and do prefer videos that do not have any irritating background music though
Yes, it is difficult to please everyone and I appreciate your feedback.
So which water should I use if I make coffee for drip machine
Reverse Osmosis water like Dasani or Aquafina
Brilliant video Gary, you've obviously put a lot of hard work into this and it's appreciated 👍 I'm in the UK and we can get most if not all of these waters here, so I can definitely decide which is best for us, after watching the video, it seems a shame that we can't just collect rain water, boil it, filter it, and drink that instead 😇, or can we? 🤔
Sure you can!! But that is a lot of work because you would alos need to disinfect it. You might want to check out this newest bottled water video here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
@@GarytheWaterGuy thank you Gary, I'll take a look later 👍
What is ozonation process? And is water taken to where it is bottled or is the water bottled where it is processed?
Ozonation is when ozine gas is added to the water to make it taste "fresher" and to kill bacteria. Some bottles are bottled at the source while others qre bottles elsewhere. Check out my new bottled water video here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
I noticed an increase in my blood pressure, and I had no idea it was from the water I drink (Pure Life Water). Thanks a lot
Sorry to hear about the blood pressure. You might find this newer bottled water video useful ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Tap water has to be a neutral ph because if it was acidic it would rust the city pipes. They aren’t worried about your pipes
Most city pipes don't rust (becaseu they are not made of steel) but many of the surfaces contacting water in your home would react to acidic water.
Great video. Just wondering what your view is of Nirvana. From the New York Adirondack mountains
Never heard of it but I'll be sure to include it in my next bottled water video. By the way did you check out my most recent bottled water video here? ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Thank you for the deep dive. Have you assessed Deer Park?
Not yet! Is that your favourite?
@@GarytheWaterGuy as a child I loved natural spring well water but with parasites etc and for budget reasons I drink filtered water. I have had water from Germany, Perrier, Evian, Aquafina, Fiji, smart water, and alkaline water. I think my favorite would be Fiji but that gets really pricey. I’d love to hear your opinion about deer park and Poland water since those are readily available at Costco and Wegmans.
I will check them out.
Gary I get hinkly water delivered every week k, they sold the company .MY WATER HAS A DIFFERENT TASTE. CAN YOU CHECK IT.FOR SEVEN YRS....THANK YOU.
Not sure where to buy Hinkly water but if I can find it, I'll include on my next bottled water video. Here is my most recent one ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Can I send you a water sample for testing? I recently installed a pentair filter system. Now my water tastes great. I am curious to know what difference there is before and after the filter.
Yes we can but we only test for a few parameters, see waterestore.com/pages/free-water-test-evaluation-the-water-estore
Have you done a video on sparkling waters? I would like to get your thoughts.
Yes, in my newest bottled water video here ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
What about San Pelligrino? Do you have a video on mineral water?
Yes, I test San Pelligrino in this video ua-cam.com/video/lBq-z9Xu4Rc/v-deo.html
Can you send me a link to a reverse osmosis kit for under my sink
Sure thing, this is the one in my house for my family waterestore.com/products/hum-water-saver-75-gpd-reverse-osmosis-system-brushed-nickel-faucet
Definitely the best water is Vichy Catalan from Spain, followed by Radenska from Slovenia. Both are available in glass bottles and have very good minerals content, including good amount of Lithium. Not sure, if they are available in the US though
