The popular ABC series ‘War on Waste’ put Australia’s favourite brands of  water to the test, with surprising results.

The testing compared the levels of ph, fluoride, and magnesium found in Gold Coast tap water to brands such as Nature’s Best and Mount Franklin. Results showed some brands were far more acidic than tap water, whilst the brand Fiji water has a high concentration of magnesium.

Australian tap water is subject to stringent testing to ensure its quality, however, bottled water is classified as a food product and does not undergo the same testing.
