  • TOXIC METALS
    Toxic drinking water.  This is the most important source of toxic metals for most people.  Aluminum, copper, toxic chlorides and fluorides are added to many municipal water supplies.  Aluminum allows dirt to settle out of the water, while copper kills algae that grows in reservoirs.  Chlorine is used to disinfect water, although ozone works very well and is a far more healthful treatment.  Wells and even municipal water may also contain some lead, arsenic and other undesirable metals.  Galvanized and black plastic pipes can be an important source of cadmium.  Lead-soldered pipes and copper pipes may increase these metals in the drinking water if the water is soft.  It is an uncommon problem in hard water areas.
