Crystal Quest® Arsenic water filters

no.. they do not. They are purely for simple sediment and aesthetic taste/chlorine removal. They don't remove cysts and pollutants. This is in reference to the pour through style of filters, where you pour it into the filter.

the best water filter is a carbon block type, where the water molecules are forcefully *puched* through the carbon and forced to be cleansed. Find someone who works with quixtar or amway and get a filter from them. Those are some of the best and remove lead, copper, iron, giardia, bacteria, arsenic, cysts, sewage, and everything else in the water.

did you hear the new news reports (march 08) about prescription drugs being in the water supply? Google it, then go out and get yourself a filter, unless you want to be taking your neighboors cialis... :^(
