Are there serious risks most do not know of? I was getting water from a delivery company and since I've cancel there service now that money is getting tighter.. and I'm just drinking well water. Oh I live on small organic farm/shop so in the first place I don't know what I was thinking ordering water, well I know it wasn't my idea.. Well I feel like 100% better. What gives?

well water has probably more minerals in it and do you know the source of the well . this water is naturally filtered . but it does not follow that this water is 100% probably better that those plastic bottles out of a tap more likely. by the way don't carry water in plastic bottles in the car i mean the small ones of course they flex in the heat and the water can be tainted and i read somewhere it can be carcinogenic
2 :
i do know when plastic gets too warm it releases carcinogens, so that could be part of it.
3 :
Plastic food and drink containers should pose no real health risk to the average person. Just don't eat the container.
4 :
There is 0 risk. plastic is perfectly safe unless you are melting it or eating it. This is an old wives tale given more steam by ridiculous conspiracy theorists.

2 good things about well water. Minerals and it's alive. Water doesn't like to be stopped, its nature is to move, almost as though it were a living energy. Water in bottles is not 'happy'. It might not seem like water in a well is moving but it is, that's how the well gets filled as it goes by. As for plastic, I'm not worried about it. Humanity clawed its way to the top of the food chain by being resilient and adaptive. Sterile plastic bottles are certainly less of a threat than goat skins or even the best ceramic containers used before Louis Pasteur invented the germ theory and made us start washing things. We will survive.

It will cause several health problems

Did you know water expires? It has a expire date on it?I heard the plastic melts in the heat. And yes, the rumors are true: chemicals used to manufacture certain plastics such as Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) can be potentially harmful when ingested. So it makes sense to know what to look for—and what to avoid—when you buy, wrap, cook, or store food or beverages in any type of container. Choose Better Plastics Too complicated to know which is best? Not really. Essentially, the more flexible the plastic, the more likely it is to contain potentially toxic plasticizers called “phthalates,†which make it more pliable. Plastics made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or high density polyethylene (HDPE)—such as most Nalgene bottles—are safer than that made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). For those on-the-go moments, opt for plastic containers labeled #2, #4, and #5. Look for these numbers on the bottom of the container. I say lets go back to lead plates. Lead positioning less worse than cancer. LOL just kidding
