Is Tap Water Safe? Everything You Need to Know [2024]

Posted by: Rhona Reid On October 22, 2024 8:24 am

Tap water—you use it to brush your teeth, wash your hands, do the dishes, and so much more.  The convenience of tap water being only a turn of the faucet away is tough to beat. But, most people don’t know what’s in their tap water which begs the question: Is tap water safe to drink?

It’s valid to assume the answer is yes. After all, Americans enjoy one of the world’s safest supplies of drinking water, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). And, every public water system is required to meet the health-based standards set by the EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA).

Posted by: Rhona Reid On January 6, 2020 11:14 am

We’ve talked about BPA before.

BPA
Why is BPA a much bigger problem than we previously thought?

In recent years, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has preferred a relatively nonchalant approach to the carcinogenic chemical that’s present in food containers and drink bottles across the country, declining to upgrade the risk in line with scientists’ concerns.

Caution Needed

Experts in the field have long felt the FDA’s position has jarred with the more cautionary scientific view.

“The stance the FDA’s had for a number of years is probably narrow-sighted.” – Christopher Kassotis, University of Missouri
