The U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a warning advising
consumers not to drink Jermuk brands of mineral water from Armenia.
FDA scientists say the recalled water, distributed nationally, might
be contaminated with high levels of arsenic, which is a known cause
of cancer.
FDA testing of the water revealed 500 to 600 micrograms of arsenic
per liter, exceeding the FDA's standard for quality bottled water
that allows no more than 10 micrograms of arsenic per liter.
