My 80-something year old Aunt in England was advised by her Doctor during her pregnancy (way-back-when) to drink a glass of Guinness each day. How times have changed! Having lived overseas as a child in Asia I can directly see how breastfeeding can be a guard against some toxicity and contamination – but other sanitation problems still kills a lot of kids, and stuff like Malaria too, which we seldom worry about.

You should consider upgrading to Berkey water filter instead of your brita. It filter out alot more of the normal stuff, plus a variety of bacteria, heavy metals, and organics. It costs more to start with, but over the long run, it actually costs less due to the long life of the filters. Makes the water taste better and can purify water in emergency situations.
