Drinking Water Replacement Cartridge (CFR2000)
About this item
Details
Our Pure & Clear filters use a “selective filtration” process rather than a mechanical one for a couple of very important reasons. This advanced technology helps remove harmful contaminants such as THMs and lead, but retains beneficial minerals including potassium and calcium. The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water treatment device are not necessarily present in your water.
The exclusive five-stage dual-cartridge system removes contaminants based on their level of prevalence, eliminating the most competitive compounds first, such as chlorine and sediment, and allowing the latter stages to focus on the more difficult task of removing lead and synthetic chemicals.
The patented dual-filter system uses a combination of carbon filtration, ion-exchange and sub-micron filtration to produce great tasting, healthier water.
The first, “A” cartridge filters out the largest contaminants – down to 5 microns in size. This includes particulate matter (turbidity) and chlorine. Getting the larger, concentrated substances out of the way allows the second, “B” cartridge to go to work on the more difficult, toxic contaminants.
- Lead is reduced by a complex ion-exchange process that replaces harmful lead ions with healthy potassium ions.
- Herbicides, pesticides, industrial solvents and other synthetic chemicals are removed through absorption.
- Chlorine byproducts and chlorine resistant organisms, such as THMs, and cysts like Giardia Cryptosporidium are physically filtered by the 0.5-micron absolute filter.
Clogging is a common problem found with single-filter systems. A dual-cartridge system eliminates that problem by allowing a separate, first filter to remove the larger debris. Not only do you greatly extend the life of your filter cartridge, you get a faster flow of pure and clean water. Please remember that it is very important to maintain this water treatment device according to the manufacturer’s instructions, including replacement of filters.
Also, systems that attempt to remove contaminants with a single cartridge or a single stage do not perform as well under real life conditions where more than one contaminant may be present at a time.

FAQ
- What is the suggested use of the product?
Adults, as a dietary supplement, take eight (8) tablets daily with food. Alternatively, take four (4) tablets with breakfast and four (4) tablets with dinner.
- Why do I need to take eight tablets a day? Do I really need all these vitamins and minerals?
While you may be able to compress synthetic ingredients made in a lab into one or two tablets, the same can't be said for wholesome whole-food ingredients which are also typically better absorbed than synthetic nutrients.
You may have been able to get the nutrients you need from healthy foods 50 years ago, but it's more challenging today to do so, even with organically grown foods. Plus, many people rely at least to some extent on processed convenience foods, which provide suboptimal nutrition. A high-quality multivitamin can help fill the gaps in your diet and help you get the vitamins and minerals your body needs for health.
- I already take many supplements and feel I follow a healthy diet. Do I still need multivitamins?
Taking other supplements is a great approach for addressing targeted issues, but they don't typically supply a full spectrum of nutrients. A high-quality multivitamin with minerals and whole foods can provide you with a broad base of nutrients for optimal health and an active lifestyle.*
- Are all of the ingredients from whole foods?
Our formula contains more than 2,000 mg of organic vegetables, fruits, herbs and green foods designed to support your health. For the few nutrients that are impractical to extract from food, we use easily absorbed, bioavailable forms of vitamins and minerals.
- Can I give Whole-Food Complex with added Multivitamins plus Vital Minerals to my child?
We formulated our Whole-Food Complex with added Multivitamins plus Vital Minerals for adults, however, we also created a multivitamin just for kids – Chewable Multivitamins for Kids – because we know children also don't always get all the nutrients they need from food.
- Why are the colors of my Whole-Food Multivitamins sometimes different?
Our Whole-Food Complex Multivitamin with added Multivitamin plus Vital Minerals contains blends of organic, whole-food fruits, vegetables herbs and green foods, in addition to vitamins and minerals. The whole-food ingredients can vary in color from season to season, so each batch of our formula may appear a little different. The various colored specks distributed throughout the tablet are from the minerals, which are also normal variations.
- Is it safe to consume this product while pregnant or nursing?
This product was not formulated specifically for pregnant or nursing women. We always recommend consulting with your health care provider before taking a new dietary supplement.
- What is the purpose of the Stoplight-colored labeling?
The Stoplight System is a product-labeling program is designed to help you make informed decisions when considering your gut health. While not every product is formulated specifically for gut support, the labels – Green, Yellow or Red – provide a clear guide on how a product might impact digestion. By using this simple color-coded system, you’ll be able to determine which products best fit your personal gut health journey, making it easier to align choices with your individual wellness goals.
