It would be nice to know the quantity of dioxin that is in bottled water -- although any amount is not good, if it is orders of magnitude less than general exposures then perhaps our concerns are better directed to eliminating the larger exposures first.
Prioritize. It does concern me for my distiller set up though since it is very hot water. Would your neighbor happen to have information as to amounts or could he share his source of info so I can follow up? Thanks!
