Has anyone found a water filter they recommend? Preferably someone who has tested their water before and after.
I'm considering a whole house system. I'm also considering drinking-water only systems, such as Berkey.
Currently we have some 2.5 gallon glass jugs that we fill up at the grocery store with RO water. It works, but it's kind of a pain, and I'm worried my wife or I will drop one of those eventually. And that doesn't take care of showers or baths. We generally don't drink much plain water, but I'd like to reduce our exposure as much as reasonably possible.
I know distilled is probably safest, but I'm not sure if it takes too much out of the water and has any other negatives. I suppose I could add baking soda and/or magnesium back to it. Has Ray recommended for or against distilled? Why or why not?
I remember the Herb Doctors recommending Royal Doulton. Others on this forum recommended Friends of Water before.
And does anyone have any experience with testing your own water? Testing for things like chlorine, chloramine, fluoride, glyphosate, etc. Kits seem kind of pricey, so I want to make sure I do it right.
