Bottled Water Extracted from Fruit

Our next entry into the world of strange bottled water, is O18, water extracted from fruit.

The Australian-based company by the same name, uses an award winning "pressure chilling" process to extract water from Australian grown apples and oranges. They freeze the fruit juice and from there are able to separate the fruit from the water.

They claim its the purest water on Earth because it comes from inside the fruit where it's kept free from outside impurities. But while it comes from fruit, it doesn't taste like it, just plain water.

What a horrible waste of time, if it tastes like plain old water. My favorite bottled waters are those with a hint of fruit flavoring, yet still overwhelmingly thirst-quenching like plain old water. A shame, really.

Just because the water come from fruit doesn't mean it is pure. Fruits and veggies suck up whatever pollutants are in the ground along with the nutrients from the ground they grow in.

They could at least use organic fruit. But apparently its not even that. What about all the systemic pesticide in the fruit. It seems a quicker way for your body to absorb the dangerous chemicals. Not the smartest idea.

What about the systemic pesticide and fertilizers in the fruit? They arent even using organic friut? It seems a dangerously quick way for your body to absorb harmful chemicals.

Bottled water is usually just tap water that is filtered. It seems that there is a trend to more and more of our fresh groundwater sources being contaminated with those same pesticides that are being sprayed on our Earth. Interestingly I have seen a few plants which filter out pesticides but I don't know what levels would be present in the fruit.
