    TAP water?

    I don’t even DRINK the tap water my city gives out, as I know it causes stomach aches. If a stomach struggles with something, the thought of putting it into someone’s veins… yeesh.

        Depends on where you are at, but the bigger issue isn’t minerals or even lead. It’s the microbiology both in the water and general environment.

      Don’t know why you got downvoted, the article literally states tap water isn’t sterile and will cause major problems.

        I suspect it’s people in areas with decent tap water using their personal anecdotes as evidence that tap water doesn’t give stomach aches.
