How often do you buy a bottle of mineral water? If your answer is 'often,' then ask yourself why. Most of us think that mineral water is cleaner, has lower chances of exposing you to waterborne diseases and definitely better than tap water.

Along with the direct impact bottled water has on your body, the plastic bottles that hold the water pollute the earth. Sounds like an endless cycle, doesn't it? Here's a video by Storyofstuffproject that tells you exactly how bottled water is harmful for you. Video source: YouTube/Storyofstuffproject Image source: ShutterStock
