Contaminants Found (10)
Aluminum
A naturally occurring metal found in water due to leaching from soil and industrial waste.
May contribute to neurological disorders and affect individuals with impaired kidney function. High levels can cause gastrointestinal issues
Barium
A naturally occurring element often derived from industrial discharges and natural deposits.
Can lead to increased blood pressure, heart and nervous system problems, and long- term exposure may cause kidney damage.
Bromide
A naturally occurring ion found in seawater and some groundwater.
While not harmful on its own, it can form toxic byproducts, like bromate, during water disinfection processes.
Chromium
A metal found in water from industrial waste, especially from metal plating and textile production.
Can cause skin irritation and damage to the liver and kidneys. Long-term exposure is linked to lung and nasal cancer.
Gross Beta
Measures of radioactivity in water, often from natural sources or nuclear activities.
Prolonged exposure to radioactive contaminants may increase the risk of cancer and damage internal organs, especially the bones.
Nitrate
Commonly found in water due to agricultural runoff, sewage, and industrial waste.
Can cause methemoglobinemia, or "blue baby syndrome," in infants and may increase the risk of cancer and thyroid problems with prolonged exposure.
Radium 228
Another isotope of radium found in natural deposits.
Can cause bone damage and increase cancer risk.
Selenium
An essential trace element that can become toxic in high concentrations.
High exposure can cause hair loss, gastrointestinal issues, and nervous system problems.
Sulfate
A naturally occurring mineral found in water from soil leaching, rocks, and industrial processes.
High sulfate levels can cause gastrointestinal discomfort, including diarrhea, especially in infants and sensitive populations.
Thallium
A metal found in water due to industrial waste, mining, and smelting processes.
Toxic to the nervous system and heart, causing hair loss, nerve pain, and in severe cases, death.
Water Sourcing and Treatment
The water is rich in minerals from the thermal waters of Caldes de Malavella, in the Selva comarca in Girona, Spain.
