    I) According to FDA there are about 38 toxic contaminants of bottled water may include, Chloride, Coliform, Arsenic, Iron, Manganese, phenols, Dissolved solids, Zinc, and Flouride. It is the work of FDA to allow certain levels of these contaminants in bottled water. Higher levels than the recommended levels may be toxic and dangerous to human beings.
