In plain language
What the study reported
Verified extract — not AI generated
“Strong contaminant-removal performance for PFAS by reverse osmosis.”
Point-of-use filtration at the tap.
RO also removes beneficial minerals; some systems remineralize.
Caveats
Measures contaminant removal, not health outcomes; performance depends on maintenance.
