2/3 of bottled water is contaminated in one form or another. No joke the best option is usually straight from your tap with a good filtration system, preferably RO.

How do you know 2/3 of bottled water is contaminated? In what way?

If you include the Bpa from the plastic itself as contamination, that puts it at closer to 100%.

Disposable PET bottles don't contain BPA. Some of the reusable ones do.
