Real Water founder apologizes after drink is linked to liver failure

The founder of bottled-water maker Real Water has publicly apologized after five kids who drank its product came down with liver failure.

Real Water president Brent Jones issued the mea culpa amid a Food and Drug Administration probe of the alkaline water, which has been linked to several cases of hepatitis.

The feds say five infants and children in southern Nevada who consumed the brand’s water came down with non-viral hepatitis that resulted in acute liver failure and put them in the hospital.

While those patients have recovered, five other people from two of their households also suffered symptoms such as fever, vomiting and nausea, according to the FDA.
