PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances) are toxic, man-made chemicals that have been detected in local water supplies. These contaminants come fromindustrial waste, firefighting foams, and household products like non-stick cookware and water-resistant fabrics. PFAS do not break down in the environment or the human body, meaning exposure can build up over time and lead to serious health risks.
Long-term exposure to PFAS has been linked to:
• Cancer – Increased risk of kidney and testicular cancer.
• Thyroid & Hormone Disruption – Affects metabolism and immune function.
• Reproductive & Developmental Issues – Higher risk of miscarriage, low birth weight, & learning disabilities in children.
• Liver & Kidney Damage – Increased cholesterol levels and toxic buildup in vital organs.
PFAS contamination occurs when chemicals used in manufacturing, firefighting, or waste disposal seep into groundwater and drinking water sources. If your home or business is in an affected area, you may be exposed to these harmful substances every time you turn on the tap.
