+1 on water. If you own your own house, a whole house filter is the way to go.
In addition to the trace pharmaceuticals, it will filter out chlorine and flouride which is a poison added by the municipalities to kill bacteria and viruses. There is some thought that just taking a shower you absorb a lot of chlorine through the skin and your lungs.
Avoiding these environmental poisons is not easy, especially when you consider that you have to have a solution for when you are at work, restaurants, or the grocery store. One partial solution that is easy is to do cleanses, or take natural items that chelate toxins (i.e. toxins bind to it and are removed from your body). For example, drinking carrot juice and taking a small amount of chlorella or spirulina daily. Some other juices like beet juice and parsley and cilantro are supposed to be even better. http://www.naturalnews.com/038670_heavy_...foods.html This is not meant to be an exhaustive list or even a suggestion of the best chelators; rather, its a suggestion that some things that are easy to add to your diet or routine provide an important benefit you may not have considered. Switching to natural salt like himalayan sea salt, can also work as a chelator. http://www.nourishingplot.com/2014/08/30...naturally/
