Bottled Water Test. Alkaline Ionized Water. What are you really drinking?
The Water Quality Test That The EPA RequireS Does Not Make Your Water Safe To Drink
The Environmental Protection Agency requires that the water treatment facilities regularly perform a water quality test to determine if the water they are providing you is safe for you to drink. The truth is that even performing daily tests for microorganisms and high toxin and carcinogen levels is not enough to take public drinking water safe for human consumption. Let me explain exactly what I mean by this.
The Safe Drinking Water Act allows the EPA to issue two types of safe drinking water standards. The first of these are primary standards which regulate any substances which could negatively affect human health, and secondary standards are in place to regulate aesthetic qualities of drinking water such as appearance, odor, and taste. The EPA is really only successful in regulating secondary standards of drinking water.
The secondary standards are easy for the water treatment facilities to comply with, because all they have to do is control the amounts of the chemicals necessary provide you with clear, fresh tasting, and clean smelling water.
Primary standards issues are harder to control, because honestly the water quality test the treatment facilities perform for contaminants are a complete waste of time. They can't really do anything about the level of contamination in your water anyway.
Even if the treatment facilities find that contamination levels in your water are higher than what is allowed by the EPA, they can't do anything to really lower these levels. Service interruption can occur if levels are too out of control, but there are always going to be contaminants present in some measure.
This is important for you to know, because there is absolutely nothing that the treatment facilities can do to prevent drinking water tainted to some degree by contamination from entering your home.
A regular water quality test is not really very helpful, because the treatment facilities cannot prevent the transmission of potentially harmful contamination into the public water system. Using the technology the treatment facilities currently have nothing of the same or lesser molecular weight of water can be prevented from passing through the system. Similarly, nothing of microscopic size can be filtered out either.
This fact poses a threat to the health of everyone who consumes water provided by the municipal drinking water treatment facilities. There is estimated to be as many as 80,000 individual toxic and carcinogenic chemical agents present in our groundwater and reservoir systems. In addition to these contaminants, there are toxic heavy metals and disinfectant resistant pathogens present in public drinking water as well.
No water quality test is going to protect your family from the negative effects of accumulating these harmful contaminants in your bodies, but there is something out there that can provide you with security.
The use of a home tap water purification filter equipped with a combination of activated granular carbon, ion exchange, and a sub micron filter can effectively make your water up to 99% contaminant free.
If you are not receiving municipal water but drawing your water from a natural source, then I suggest you have someone perform water quality test on your water.
No matter how the test comes back, I advise you to install a home tap water purification filter as well, because the contamination in our groundwater can affect you just as well as anybody else.
Sound advice if you want to remain healthy.

Frequently Asked Questions...
Why is is that I have to use water to test candy stages?
When you don't have a candy thermometer they say you can use a water test. You take some of the hot candy and drop it into cold water to see what stage it's at. Why water, couldn't you just drop it on some wax paper and see where it's at? Just something I've always wanted to know.
Answer:
Water is 8 times as efficient as air at transferring heat. This is why you can stick your hands into a 350 degree oven and it's slightly uncomfortable, but hold your hands over a boiling pot and the steam will burn you (the steam can only get to 212). So when you drop the sugar into the water, in theory it cools it off 8 times as fast. (I don't know if the 8 times faster thing is scientific, but it makes sense to me.)
Not to mention, softball stage sugar needs to be rolled into a little ball by hand. Who wants to grab 240 degree sugar? If you stick your hands in ice water, grab the sugar and go straight back into the ice water, you can't feel anything, and then you are able to roll the sugar into a "softball". This is called the pate baume test.
Besides... if you drop the sugar straight from the pot onto wax paper, the sugar will continue to cook on the paper. That's why when carmelizing sugar, you take the pot and dunk the whole thing in ice water, to stop the cooking NOW. If you don't, you will end up with a big ol pot of black, carmelized mess.
Wow this got long, lol. I guess the easist, shortest answer would be, the state the sugar will stay at is room temperature, and you want to get it back to that temperature as quickly as possible. Hence cold water.
