I had assumed and been told that polycarbonate did not leach into water. The test actually shows there is a high rate of BPA pass through and one wishes they had followed up by watching for the BPA in urine for a week after use of the polycarbonate containers was discontinued. I don’t have confidence in stainless steel either and would like to see both blood and urine tests for nickel for people using stainless containers. More and more it seems that glass is the only way to go. I was on a site yesterday that sold 3 gallon glass jugs for $48 each and even pint jars were not cheap. Fortunately I have a collection of 4 liter glass wine jugs and I will start using those. Now I need to see how they store the distilled water I have been buying in bulk and storing in the polycarbonate 5 gallon bottles.

Now I am hoping to find out what might remove the BPA I have been accumulating over the past 3 years with my “pure” water. This is very upsetting! And important to know. Thanks again!
