PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONThis replacement Alkaline Water Filter Cartridge will produce a moderate pH and moderate negative Oxidation Reduction Potential (-ORP) levels. A negative ORP level means the water works as an antioxidant. It also will filter out chlorine and other contaminants and permanently absorbs metals such as lead and copper. The drinking water will be more refreshing and clear that's ideal for drinking, cooking and brewing coffee or tea. Each cartridge lasts for up to every 4-6 weeks or 300 liters of regular daily use.

Advantage of Alkaline Water Filter Pitcher
- Create silky-smooth and great tasting water that is refreshing to drink and cook with.
- Helps filter out chlorine and other contaminants and permanently absorbs metals such as lead and copper. The drinking water will be more refreshing and clear.
- Reduces limescale, prolong the domestic appliance life by preventing limescale.
- Increase active hydrogen.
- Offers pH 8.5-10 to help support systemic pH balance in the body.
- Provides low negative ORP: -100mv to -300mv. This transforms ordinary water into rich antioxidant water to help energize and revitalize your body.
- Reduces water molecule size to create more absorbable water and increase hydration.
- Increases the alkalinity to make your drinking water more vital.
Carbon Filter Fact
The activated carbon filter which has a slight electro-positive charge, making it attractive to chemicals and impurities. As the water passes over the positively charged carbon surface, the negative ions of the contaminants are drawn to the surface of the carbon granules. Carbon filters require very little maintenance, and are perhaps the most powerful chemical absorbents known to man. This carbon-based filter removes organic contaminants from regular municipal tap water and meets or exceeds NSF International Standard 42 for chlorine, taste and odor reduction.For more info, please visit this website. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_filtering
Ion Exchange Resin Fact
An organic compound that will adsorb ions under some conditions and release them under others. The best-known example is in water-softening, where calcium ions are removed from the water by binding to the resin, displacing sodium ions. The resin is then regenerated by washing with a concentrated solution of salt, when the sodium ions displace the calcium ions. Ion-exchange resins are used for purification of chemicals, metal recovery, and a variety of analytical techniques.For more info, please visit this website. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion-exchange_resin
Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) Fact
Oxidation-reduction potential, or ORP, is a measurement that indicates the degree to which a substance is capable of oxidizing or reducing another substance. ORP is measured in millivolts (mv) using an ORP meter. A positive ORP reading indicates that a substance is an oxidizing agent. The higher the reading, the more oxidizing it is. As such, a substance with an ORP reading of +400 mv is 4 times more oxidizing than a substance with an ORP reading of +100 mv.A negative ORP reading indicates that a substance is a reducing agent. The lower the reading, the more anti-oxidizing it is. A substance with an ORP reading of -400 mv is 4 times more anti-oxidizing than a substance with an ORP reading of -100 mv. Most types of water, including tap water and bottled water, are oxidizing agents as their ORP value is positive.
Our normal tap water a positive ORP of around +500 mVolts. This means that every time we drink tap water it takes electrons from our body. The water is "dead" and actually steals electrical energy from us.
After filtering the water through the Alkaline Water Filter Pitcher the ORP was a negative -484 mV and consequently is a donor of electrons to the body.

Magnesium Fact
In human biology, magnesium is the eleventh most abundant element by mass in the human body; its ions are essential to all living cells, where they play a major role in manipulating important biological polyphosphate compounds like ATP, DNA, and RNA. Hundreds of enzymes thus require magnesium ions to function. Magnesium compounds are used medicinally as common laxatives, antacids (e.g., milk of magnesia), and in a number of situations where stabilization of abnormal nerve excitation and blood vessel spasm is required (e.g., to treat eclampsia). Magnesium ions are sour to the taste, and in low concentrations they help to impart a natural tartness to fresh mineral waters..For more info, please visit this website. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium
Care Instructions
- Do not expose to direct sunlight and keep it away from the heating elements.
- Unwrap filter cartridge and place in a glass of clean water. Allow cartridge to soak for 15 minutes to flush out any loose carbon fines (it is normal to see the dark water when first soak the cartridge in the water).
- DO NOT wash the filter cartridge. When cleaning the water filter pitcher.
About Green Pal's house-brand
To offer our customers with the best quality products, we have team up with our partners to produced our own house-brand. To raise consumer awareness of the facts surrounding sourcing issues, we work with our partners carefully, label our products honestly and make information easy to find in our online store.

Comment: I have been using the alkaline pitcher for a month, no problem with the water. Brought the additional cartridge because of the discount coupon and happy with the price. Delivery is fast and item is well packed.
