Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have been reading reviews of people saying they really enjoy these stones and that they make their water taste better and so on and so forth. So I decided to buy it and test the product myself. I have a berkey imperial filter which produce's great tasting water and this is my Base line water. I boiled the rocks as stated in their instructions before my test. I had 4 glasses of water all from the same batch of Berkey filtration and all sat over night about 8 Hours of saturation. 1 with nothing so i could use for my base line sample. 1 with the white balls. I saw no change in PH level. 1 with the mineral rock. I saw a slight increase in PH maybe by 0.5-1 PH 1 with both. I saw increase of 0.5 PH. After I had done this Test I took the Rocks and the white balls to work and we have a Highly sophisticated XRF Gun by Thermo Scientific. This is a $30,000 xray gun. This is an X-ray Gun that shoots Xrays at Metals and or rocks depending on the model you buy and it will give you the elements of the material you shot. Our Gun is for metals but has Most of the elements on the periodic chart with an exception of a few elements. The gun has two sets of filters 1 heavy and 1 light. the heavy filter finds heavy elements light finds lighter elements. Heavy is found in the first 5 seconds of shooting and the light filter turns on after that for as long as you hold the trigger. I held each mineral for about 35 second each to get a good and fairly accurate reading. with a +/- of 2%. Here are my findings The white ball results (36 seconds trigger hold): Al: 21% Si: 75% Fe: 0.5% Zn: 0.1% Zr: 1.2% Nb: 0.05% Bi: 1.1% No traces of copper, magnesium and manganese. Extremely low contents of Zinc, and Iron. I cannot read calcium, sodium and Potassium. So this does not mean they are not present but from what the Gun reads for what it can see I do not feel comfortable putting these elements into my body. They may raise the PH of the water but what our XRF gun can see is not beneficial minerals. The mineral rock results (35 seconds trigger hold): Al: 14% Si: 81% Fe: 4% Zr: 0.09% Again, no copper, magnesium, manganese and zinc. Cannot read calcium, potassium and sodium. If you add up the percentages you will see that it does not equal 100%. That is because the gun cannot read all the Elements in the rocks. So there may be calcium potassium and sodium in this mineral rock but I can guarantee there are no traces of copper, magnesium and manganese. Conclusion. These rocks are a fake and do not work. This is a scam. They work relative to raising PH level but I would not consider that it is raising the level with healthy beneficial minerals. Ever so slight traces possibly of healthy minerals as my gun did pick up zinc and Iron. I would personally recommend that anyone using these rocks stop using them. I do not think they are sanitary and safe for consumption. I will not be using them in my Berkey filter or any filtration system for that matter. Hope this review helps and that you guys make the right decision for your health and stay away from this. I am not a doctor or a scientist. I love science and health and am lucky enough to have access to some amazing equipment. These results are from my personal experience with the santevia mineral stones that I have purchased. Thanks for reading and God bless.
