Testing by the Center for Environmental Health found high levels of arsenic in Peñafiel and Starkey brands of bottled water that violate California guidelines.

Peñafiel is owned by Keurig Dr. Pepper. It is sold at stores like Walmart and Target. Starkey is owned by and sold at Whole Foods.

The study corroborates Consumer Reports’ findings, which were released earlier in 2019. It found that Peñafiel and Starkey waters contained nearly double the federal limit of arsenic.

Arsenic can cause reproductive harm and cancer. It can also damage organs and cause hormone disruptions.

Putting your trust into the hands of corporations to provide clean water that doesn’t contain harmful chemicals, pathogens or chemicals like  arsenic could be a big mistake.  Using a personal water bottle with a built-in filtration system designed to remove these contaminates is a much safer alternative for both your personal health the the health of the environment.

The PiMag Sport Bottle® features a unique, patented (U.S. Patent #8,439,205) microfilter that meets or exceeds internationally recognized filtration standards. Proprietary Nikken PiMag® Water Technology combines a magnetic field that helps to reduce sediment agglomeration with features that add natural minerals and adjust pH value.

The PiMag Sport Bottle is environmentally responsible in many ways: the biodegradable bottle shell (containing no BPA or other potentially harmful compounds) eventually breaks down into natural soil nutrients. Filter components are replaceable, to extend the life of the bottle. The PiMag® Sport Bottle is the clean, economical and intelligent alternative to commercially bottled water.

PiMag® Water Technology also possesses advantages over commercially bottled water. An immediately obvious one is cost: the purchase and operation of a PiMag® product, which filters tap water, is an order of magnitude less expensive than the ongoing cost of bottled water — which itself is often nothing more than treated tap water.
