A member asked:
Why is it important to treat our water before we drink it? would we die if we didn't?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If water is clean: than it isn't such an issue. In the Blue Ridge Mountains we drank water from our spring for years - it was never treated. We were blessed as water in many areas contains contaminants that could seriously impact health.
