Tap Water a Cocktail of Prescription Drugs Filette Mineral Water is Bottled from Naturally Pure Italian Springs
Palm Beach, Fla. (PRWEB) March 20, 2008 -- The Associated Press recently reported that a wide range of prescription drugs could be found in the tap water of over 41 million Americans. The obvious immediate solution, for Americans, is to switch to bottled water. However, many bottled water brands are just filtered tap water. So where should the public turn to drink safe, pure water?
"Filette," answered Josie Palmieri, the American CEO of Filette. "Our water is not filtered tap water, it actually comes from the natural springs in the Apennines mountain range in Italy. The water goes through a 20 year natural filtration process before it ever bottled and sold."
While Filette may be a new water source for America, the source of the water has been known since the Roman Empire. In fact, Romans believed the water held "magical healing powers." Palmieri does not back up the healing power of the water, but she does guarantee the purity and freshness of Filette Mineral Water.
After a 5 month inquiry, the AP discovered that the following pharmaceuticals could be found in tap water: sex hormones, antibiotics, mood stabilizers and anti-convulsants. Even though the concentration amount of the pharmaceuticals is said to be in quantities of parts per billion or trillion, scientists are worried about the long term effects of drinking tap water.
Aquafina and Dasani, two of the leading water bottles bought in America, are both filtered tap water.
"When it comes to your health, you shouldn't take a chance drinking something that could potentially harm your body. Filette is the way water should come, naturally pure," explained Palmieri.
Filette is now sold in the Publix Greenwise section and at select boutique natural groceries. For more information of Filette, please visit www.fonteitalia.com.
About Filette
Filette might be the new water on the block, but its origins go back generations. In the center of Italy lies The Apennines, a mountain range that has been busy capturing rainwater for thousands of years. The rainwater travels down the mountains, going through a two decade long purification process underground, before being thrust up in a spring that is the source of Filette. The captured water is low in dissolved salts and just slightly alkaline, making it the perfect remedy for the busy soft drink and wine drinking lifestyle many of us enjoy. Its flavor gives it a distinct identity and Filette is perfectly comfortable in any dining environment. Filette is bottled at the source, without coming into contact with outside impurities.
Fonte Italia Americas specializes in the importation and distribution of premium bottled water. Fonte Italia Americas' experienced team couples a passion for uncovering great beverages with an innate ability to provide the highest level of service. For more information, visit www.fonteitalia.com.
