He emphasizes that reverse osmosis effectively removes contaminants, including uranium, lead, and fluoride, resulting in cleaner water compared to bottled options. Paul shares his personal experience, stating, "I use a reverse osmosis filter to filter the water from my sink... it essentially creates 13 part per million water with really nothing in it of any significance" 1.
Berkley Filters

He notes that while Berkley filters are popular, they may not be as effective as reverse osmosis in removing all contaminants.

He stresses the importance of avoiding fluoride and other contaminants, and shares his skepticism about structured and alkaline water.
