Dear Doctor, If Plastic bottles are not good for drinking water then what is the alternative. Most of the people drive for longer distance and habitual to keep water in their cars in plastic bottles - Normally the seller or distributors claims that these are PET bottles and good for drinking water. Please suggest the alternative arrangement. Thanks.
