i just heard that filtered water ie brita, pure (faucet attachment), both elevate estrogen in the body due to the chemicals they use to filter the water!!! is this true? i drink 2 gallons of that shit a day

Ive heard that the plastic in bottled water has chemicals that can cause hormone troubles,,but not the filters.
Just the containers and bottles.

They are carbon filters. I'll let you figure out the rest.

I've never heard anything about adverse effects from filtered water either. The plastic bottles I can see giving off toxins but I don't think you need to worry about your water filter. Perhaps you should Google it and see if anything comes up though.

regardless of studies which are often false. i personally wouldnt worry about carbonated water or filtered water.
