Question from Deborah Barnett
Debra, Have you or any one heard of the Water Kleen FRS water filter on Danielchapterone.com? It says it removes floride and has acatalytic carbon plus nasa silver. Can you check this out it looks a reasonable price counter top filter. Thanks Debra from Tenn
Debra’s Answer
I looked at the website for this and it doesn’t give much information.
It says that it removes 81% of fluoride and that’s the only claim it makes.
It says it contains a “priority blend” Kalcifate™ Plus (but doesn’t say what it is) and EPA registered NASA developed silver impregnated charcoal media with catalytic carbon.
I don’t recommend silver impregnated charcoal for water filters. It is added to reduce bacteria, but isn’t really needed, and the silver will leach into your water. High silver levels in the body can cause health problems.
I think it would remove chloramines because it contains catalytic carbon. But it doesn’t say that it removes anything beyond fluoride.
From my research I know that fluoride is very difficult to remove.
