PFAS are everywhere and forever. Due to the long term use of thousands of PFAS compounds in hundreds of products, we are now facing a global contamination crisis with proven environmental and human health consequences. Children are more susceptible to risks and water and food are major routes of exposure. Knowing about your drinking water quality is important to know if treatment is recommended. The podcast discusses other ways individuals can become aware and reduce their exposure to PFAS.
