Our Drinking water hose has a small label on one end from some safety council as an approved drinking water hose. It's at the coach so I can't read it.
those without that approval are questionable.
May not get sick from drinking pvc and polymides and synthetic female hormondes but I prefer not to gamble. I hate the water hose taste. Have you smelled some of the Chinese rubber hoses or plastic hoses? Reminds me of raw rubber and the treatment they used on army tents and every thing else.
I don't drink out of mud puddles any more either.
What is a synthetic female hormondes ?? :p
The name and acronmyms escapes right now but they were developed as synthetic female hormones but did not perform as they wished. They have been used to line jsut about all cans and palstic bottles and hoes linings for water. They were found to harden the linings and to keep liquids in and gasses like CO2 from escaping porous plastic bottles.
Canad and much of the world has banned them. In the U they are only banned from baby bottles, if that now.
They do bleed into whatever is in the container, from water to beer and they do invade the body and serve the function they were originally designed for to an extent.It has been proven that they are taken up by the body and become part of the makeup of the endocryn natural output. In other words they are passed along to our children.
Maybe this is the reason American men seem so docile and whiney these days and girls reach puberty much younger and are much more developed and logic and judgement is twisted. For the life of me i do not understand why FDA contiues to let them be used.
