I have been through a few water filters recently. My stomach is very
sensitive to the heavy metals that can be a by product of the filtration
system from the cartridges. I even am sensitive to the copper and other
elements in certain vitamins etc. It kills my stomach and gives me
diahreah.
I am experiencing same symptoms with this GE under sink filter now. I am
reading that they can give off extra nickel that can be bad for you.

Can anybody PLEASE give me advice on a filter that will do its best to NOT
leak the metals into the water that I will drink. I may go back to the
waterpik filter that you just attach to the faucet.

Thanks in advance

Jules

You really need to see a shrink.

I mean that in the nicest way.

Really.

I suspect you are right, but wouldn't it be kinder to just not reply? If he
thinks he is sensitive to imperceptible traces, your suggestion isn't
helpful.

I've installed this system and it is as pure water as you can get.
It even comes with a tool to measure the impurities.

So you have proof of this , realy your problem is elsewhere, But an old
unchanged clogged cartrige can re release some contaminents, good
filters filter these things out.
