PDS_GC_Heavy metals

AquaTru® is designed to reduce dangerous metals that can impact health over time, as long-term exposure to these contaminants has been linked to risks such as organ damage, neurological issues, and even cancer.

Example: Lead levels are reduced by up to 99.1%, going from 0.15 mg/L to below the safe limit of 0.01 mg/L.

 

Substance	How it gets into the water	Potential health effects
Arsenic	Naturally occurring in soil and rocks, industrial waste, pesticides	Skin lesions, cancer, cardiovascular disease, neurological effects
Barium	Erosion of natural deposits, industrial discharge, drilling waste	Increased blood pressure, kidney and heart damage
Hexavalent Chromium	Often from industrial processes such as electroplating, stainless steel production, or improper disposal of industrial waste	Known carcinogen; can damage the liver, kidneys, and respiratory system
Trivalent Chromium	Can be released through certain industrial activities and may also occur naturally in some mineral deposits	An essential nutrient in small amounts, but higher exposures may pose health risks (e.g., skin irritation or other toxicity)
Copper	Corrosion of plumbing pipes, industrial waste	Stomach irritation, liver and kidney damage, anemia
Lead	Corrosion of old lead pipes, industrial pollution	Brain damage, developmental issues in children, kidney damage
Selenium	Natural deposits, mining, petroleum refining	Hair and nail loss, neurological damage, gastrointestinal issues
Radium	Natural radioactive decay of uranium and thorium in soil	Increased cancer risk, bone weakness, immune system damage
