I've also heard that fluoride that is heated up in the water changes chemical composition and is quite harmful to the body. http://www.dadamo.com/B2blogs/blogs/blog6.php/2009/06/04/clue-found-to-fried-food-cancer-risk#c2332 Thu, 04 Jun 2009 13:37:46 +0000 P-Twist [Visitor] c1128@http://www.dadamo.com/B2blogs/blogs/ Yet another reason I'm glad I finally jettisoned my beloved potato chips from my diet altogether. That said, it is scary to me that acrylamide is used to purify drinking water. I drink a LOT of water, mostly in the form of supermarket brand plain seltzer water, which is just supposed to be carbonated water, but I'm not sure how they process it for "purity". I stay away from anything actually called "purified" water because it has the same effect on me as distilled water, namely, it causes me tummy upset (which is sorta funny because I have a very tolerant tum, yet something as seemingly benign as purified water does it in). But if the tap water (which I end up drinking all during the workday, heated up for teas) and possibly the carbonated seltzer water I drink in the evenings and on weekends is full of acrylamide, well...then that is just one more thing to add to my action-packed list-o-worries. At any rate, thanks for the 411, Dr. D. http://www.dadamo.com/B2blogs/blogs/blog6.php/2009/06/04/clue-found-to-fried-food-cancer-risk#c1128
