TreeHugger.com: New High for Bottled Water

  • littleCatalyst · 4 years ago

    ...u think it would be the same thing if i just toss some of this stuff into my evian?

    Very silly indeed. Should we assume that the bottlers actually supersaturate it with air or pure O2? If it is indeed bubbly and under pressure, then the bottle would have to be thicker and stronger than normal water bottles to handle the pressure, meaning the product is wasting still more plastic.



    If not bubbly, then it is easy to achieve the same thing by chilling your water bottle and shaking it up afterward to dissolve in additional air. Oxygen solubility increases with a fall in temperature.

    Oh man! What a rip-off. It says on the first page "It is a liquid oxygen supplement..." Ya, right. Liquid oxygen? If you drank liquid oxygen your face would freeze off.



    I think i'll just stop breathing and drink this stuff. Who needs that old-fashion air anyways. :)

    "Female readers should be proud of Treehugger for not gratuitously using pictures of scantily dressed female bodybuilders from the Oxyshot website."



    Why should just the female members be proud? Isn't changing the face of advertising to be less objectifying something we should all strive for? Should it only be women's responsibility?

    "Diatomic Oxygen" is just O2. 99% of the oxygen in our atmosphere exists as diatomic oxygen. It's the same thing as saying "it contains dissolved oxygen". Lol. people are fools.
