While drinking sufficient water on a daily basis is important to remain hydrated and therefore vital to your good health, drinking water containing any kind of contaminant is not good at all.

Many sources of water out in nature contain bacteria and other pollutants that could be very harmful, make you ill and even cost you your life, but then so does some tap water. So how do you filter 99% of pollutants out of your drinking water?

Simple! If you are out in nature and have run out of fresh drinking water and the water in the river or dam is not fit for human consumption, there are some easy ways to filter and purify the water so that you can drink it.

One of the simplest methods is to find a pine tree, break off a young branch and debark it and place the stick in the mouth of a bottle then slowly pour the water through the stick into a clean receptacle. This may sound like a simplistic solution, but sometimes they are the best, and this method will actually remove 99% of the bacteria in the water.

Of course if you are not a tree-hugger but are not sure that your tap water is 100% pure, or just do not like the fact that it smells or tastes like fluoride, there is an even simpler solution – invest in a water cooler with a good filter.

A mains water cooler is plumbed directly into your main water line, and when fitted with a water filter, will actually filter out 100% of contaminants that may be in the water, including fluoride, chlorine by-products, and any pharmaceutical or recreational drugs too.
