Description

Fiji Water is a natural mineral water sourced from Fiji's aquifer. It is known for its purity and rich mineral content, offering hydration benefits but contains silica, which may pose a risk if consumed excessively.

Contaminants

• Sulfate

  0.5 mg/L

  Can cause diarrhea, especially in infants and unaccustomed individuals, pose risks to susceptible populations, and are subject to ongoing regulatory evaluation due to potential health effects.

• Gross Beta

  4.3 mg/L

  Internal tissue damage, increased cancer risk, and potential harm to the thyroid.

• Arsenic

  0.001 mg/L

  Carcinogenic, neurotoxic, increased risk of cardiovascular disease, skin lesions, reproductive toxicity, increased risk of diabetes, developmental effects

• Barium

  0.003 mg/L

  Can lead to increased blood pressure, heart and nervous system problems, and long-term exposure may cause severe health effects like kidney damage and impacts on other organs.

• Fluoride

  0.3 mg/L

  Can cause dental and skeletal fluorosis, affecting teeth and bone health, and may potentially impact cognitive development in children.

• Nitrate

  0.25 mg/L

  High levels of nitrate in drinking water can cause methemoglobinemia, or "blue baby syndrome," in infants, a condition that reduces the blood's ability to carry oxygen . Long-term exposure to elevated nitrate levels has been associated with an increased risk of certain cancers, thyroid dysfunction, and potential reproductive issues .​

• Nitrite

  0.01 mg/L

  Harmful, especially to infants and pregnant women, as it interferes with blood's ability to carry oxygen, potentially leading to a condition known as methemoglobinemia or "blue baby syndrome".

• PFAS

  0.2 mg/L

  Kidney cancer, testicular cancer, ulcerative colitis, thyroid disease, hypercholesterolemia, and pregnancy-induced hypertension

• Antimony

  0.0002 mg/L

  Respiratory irritation, skin problems, and more severe effects such as cardiovascular and lung diseases.

• Chlorodibromoacetic acid

  0.00213 mg/L

  Carcinogen

• Chromium

  0.001 mg/L

  Potential toxicity at high doses, possible kidney or liver damage with excessive supplementation, limited evidence for benefits in healthy individuals

• Phthalates

  0.1136 mg/L

  Hormone disfunction, reproductive toxicity, developmental issues, metabolic disorders, endocrine disruption, lower sperm quality, reduced testosterone, possible carcinogen
