  • Find Your Brand
    Find your brand - Ratings for 173 bottled waters The Environmental Working Group rated 173 bottled waters for transparency - what each company is willing to share with you about where their water comes from, how or if it's treated, and how pure it is. More than half of all bottled waters flunked. Bottom line? Drink plenty of water, but avoid bottled water when you can. It pollutes the environment and is often nothing more than tap water. When you must, choose brands with high scores (clear labeling) and advanced treatment. PRODUCT GRADE (Stop & Shop) Acadia Natural F Spring Water (Stop & Shop) Electrolyte Enhanced Water D ! !

  • What's Really in Your Bottled Water?
    What’s Really in Your Bottled Water? Consumer Reports found toxic PFAS chemicals in several popular water brands, especially carbonated ones By Ryan Felton September 24, 2020 3.1K SHARES CR recently tested 47 bottled waters, including 35 noncarbonated and 12 carbonated ones. For each product, we tested two to four samples. The tests focused on four heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury), plus 30 PFAS chemicals, which pose special concerns because they can linger in the environment almost indefinitely. The federal government has issued only voluntary guidance for PFAS, saying the combined amounts for two specific PFAS compounds should be below 70 parts per trillion. A few states have set lower limits, of 12 to 20 ppt, according to American Water Works, an industry group. The International Bottled Water Association, another group, says that it supports federal limits for PFAS and that bottled water should have PFAS levels below 5 ppt for any single compound and 10 ppt for more than one. Some experts say the cutoff for total PFAS levels should be even lower, 1 ppt. Noncarbonated Water Most of the noncarbonated products CR tested had detectable levels of PFAS, but only two—Tourmaline Spring and Deer Park—exceeded 1 part per trillion. Tourmaline Spring says the amount of PFAS in its bottled water is below the levels set by the IBWA and all states. Nestlé, which makes Deer Park, says that its most recent testing for the brand indicated undetectable levels of PFAS. All noncarbonated water that CR tested had heavy metal levels well below federal safety limits, with one exception: Starkey Spring Water owned by Whole Foods.
