Reshape Water™ Alkaline Water Pitcher Filter System Review
The Reshape Water Pitcher Filter System is only available on Amazon.com sold by SDS Worldwide. SDS Worldwide also sells fire & ice packs, microfiber mop pads, bride veils, and other products that are only available on Amazon. The same pitcher & filter combination sold by Reshape Water is also sold under other brand names. Does Reshape Water publish testing data on their water filters? Not that we could find after extensive web searches on both Google & Amazon.
Reshape Water Alkaline Water Pitcher Filter Testing
The Reshape Water Pitcher Filter System, available on Amazon, makes the following statement in their Amazon listing: "Our filters are BPA free & independently tested by a US-Based Laboratory, and SGS certified. They remove or reduce fluoride, chlorine, lead, and VOCS (volatile organic compounds) from faucet water quickly and effectively. Using FIR Balls, Ion Exchange Resins, Activated Carbon, Negative Potential Particles, and minerals, the filters alkalize tap water in minutes"
However, there is no actual testing data provided on the Reshape Water website or on Amazon. It is also important to note that the Reshape Water Filter Pitcher contains FIR balls (Far infrared (FIR) radiation), which is not listed anywhere on the NSF website as an approved material for filtering water. Reshape Water and SDS Worldwide have also not declared that this material is approved by the NSF.
NSF International, of course, is the governing body that researches and tests products such as filter medias before it gives their stamp of approval as a valid way to filter water. A 2013 study by Harvard based scientist stated "Despite all these different uses of FIR in medical applications, the exact mechanisms of the hyperthermic effects and biological activities of FIR irradiation are still poorly understood." We believe it is important to know what is in your filter and if your filter really works.
