The Brita® Pitcher Filter is not intended to purify water.
Brita does great marketing.
But that's all they do well.
All Brita is rated to get out of the water is (taken from the user guide) http://www.brita.com/pdf/BritaUsersGuide.pdf
Copper
Mercury
Cadmium
Chloride
Zinc
This is taken from the official Brita User Guide
If you filtered out ONE contaminant out of ONE THOUSAND contaminants, you can essentially, legally say that water with 999 contaminants is 'safer' or 'healthier' to drink than the original water with 1000 contaminants. Does that mean it is SAFE or HEALTHY? No, not at all. Wording is so important, and that's why Brita can get away with it.
All Brita does is reduce some chlorine compounds and heavy metals, and make the water taste good. It is designed to only remove things that affect the taste of water. NOT the quality or safety.
In layman's terms: it fools your taste buds into thinking it's clean. Which is what activated carbon does. It's just like adding salt to food.
