      Vitamin water is a fruity drink more akin to soda than water. They even lost a court case for deceptively marketing it as healthy.

      I’ve heard stories of people 50-60 years ago drinking water from the river.

      Mostly in documentaries about how these rivers got so polluted they are now chemical infested ecological hazards with little capacity to sustain life.

      The pond in the back appears fine, but pollution is all around us. How can they truly be sure this water is safe? Not everyone can boil or filter on the spot wherever whenever.
