PFAS in Drinking Water: Why It Matters (and How to Protect Your Home)
Why PFAS Are a Serious Concern
PFAS—short for Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances—are man-made “forever chemicals” used in products like nonstick cookware and water-resistant fabrics. The problem? They don’t break down easily, which means they can accumulate in the environment and even end up in your drinking water. Long-term exposure has been linked to thyroid issues, immune disruption, and certain cancers.
