You may have noticed that the big corporations are shoving Purified Water to the front of the grocery Isle near the check-stands. There is obviously a higher profit margin involved. They are not doing it for your health.
Purified or Distilled Water:
A. Can strip your body of minerals.
B. Can make you more susceptible to colds.
C. Can actually Dehydrate you.
Drink Spring Water
I've been Drinking Arrowhead for years. Got lucky, I hear it's one of the better ones and available at most Grocers.

What About the Shower?
Keep in mind - if you're trying to avoid bacteria or viruses. They enter your pores in the shower - whether you drink tap water or not. Here's the Good News! You do not need to spend 5 grand on a filter system. You can pick up a Good Shower Filter for about $40. https://www.google.com/#q=vitashower
Filters - The Kitchen Sink
I did a lot of research on this a couple years ago. Wanted to save money - buying cases of water every week. I wont mention any names - but let's just say the Most Popular Filter is Crap. Charcoal Filters tatse funny and do a pour job. I found diatomaceous earth to be the best. I bought one (below) for around $100. Can't remember who from - found the same one online though for $90. One warning - these work great. But they flow a lot slower than the kitchen sink (smaller spout). So if you're filling up a bunch of water bottles or a gallon - it takes a while.
