Mineral water bottles should not be re used!!

                                                                               
       
Bacteria, chemicals come with repeated use. 

Research and studies had found bacteria and certain chemicals in disposable drink bottles that had been repeatedly and reused. Experts, drink manufacturers and the authorities here agree that these bottles aren't designed for reuse and should be discarded once used.

Mineral water bottles should not be re used. The plastic called polythylene terephthalate or PET used in these bottles contains a potentially carcinogenic element (DEHA). The bottles are safe for one use only, if it's a must to keep them longer, it should be no more than a few days, a week max and MUST be kept away from heat.

Repeated washing and rinsing can cause the plastic to break down and the carcinogens can leach into the drinking water.

So it's best to invest in a water bottle/tumbler that is really meant for repeated and multiple use.
