Quarter of purified drinking water substandard
December 15, 2014 Category Health, Weekly
Almost a quarter of purified drinking water tested by China’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has been found to be substandard, with products from Wahaha Group, C’estbon Beverage and Danone’s Robust brand containing excessive levels of bacteria. Wahaha said it had recalled the affected products and cut its supply relationship with the water station where it said the contamination occurred. Chinese consumers either boil water for drinking or rely on bottled or barreled water because of high levels of pollution in waterways.
