We are working on our 1st e-book, “The Art of Vitality Aqua”, it will be available on 11/15/11.  Meanwhile, we have begun to accumulate articles discussing water quality accross the globe:

Chicago Tribune – Odd Chemicals Turn Up in Water – 8/6/11

“Trace amounts of sex hormones, prescription drugs, flame retardants and herbicides are being detected in treated drinking water pumped to more than 7 million people in Chicago and its suburbs.”

USA Today – Drugs Found in Water – 9/12/08

“A vast array of pharmaceuticals — including antibiotics, anti-convulsants, mood stabilizers and sex hormones — have been found in the drinking water supplies of at least 41 million Americans, an Associated Press investigation shows.”

Natural Resource Defense Council

 ”This June 2003 NRDC study of drinking water quality in 19 U.S. cities finds that pollution and deteriorating, out-of-date plumbing are sometimes delivering drinking water that might pose health risks to some residents — and unless steps are taken now, tap water will get worse. The report issues grades to each municipal water system studied in three problem areas — water quality and compliance, source water protection, and right-to-know compliance — and outlines a plan for protecting the nation’s drinking water supply.”
