Willing to at least try to reduce the amount of fluoride ingested in my local area, as well as setting up more counter-measures in case there are disruptions in water treatment and supply. What are your opinion on those clay and soapstone filters, and the ones that aim to kill germs with UV-light exposure ?

The way I understand this, the UV only takes out living things like bacteria, not chlorine or fluorine or pharmaceuticals or particulate things. Even RO water has junk in it. I use a distiller. You'd be amazed to see what gets left behind in "purified," filtered," and RO systems. Once you see it, you'll never go back.
Don't you lose out on beneficial trace minerals by using distilled water?
Add some un-rifined salt like Redmond's into some distilled water every day. Over 80 different minerals in it and it's a good electrolyte. You do get a lot of the minerals needed from food though so plain distilled water doesn't scare me. Only issue with distilled water for me would be if the power goes out for a long period of time.
I am NOT familiar with this. I will research it. Thank you for the information. As to losing power, I'm good for a few days with my rotating supply. (wink wink)
