Morphine Prince 109,654 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Cancer-causing contaminants may be in your drinking water, according to a new study published in the journal Heliyon. Scientists at the Environmental Working Group (EWG) analyzed pollutants in tap water from 2010 to 2017. They found 22 carcinogenic contaminants — including arsenic, disinfection byproducts, and radioactive contaminants, such as uranium and radium — in drinking water nationwide, which researchers estimate could, over the course of an average lifetime (about 70 years), lead to 100,000 cases of cancer. In the study, EWG scientists calculated the cumulative health effects of these carcinogens in more than 48,000 community water systems in the U.S. (not including the 13.5 million Americans who rely on private wells for drinking water). “The results of this analysis show that, over a lifetime of exposure to these contaminants in drinking water, we would expect that 100,000 cancer cases in the United States would be due to these drinking water contaminants,” Sydney Evans, lead author of the study and a science analyst at EWG, tells Yahoo Lifestyle. “Contaminants present in drinking water all across the United States — at concentrations that are perfectly legal and get a passing grade from federal government — can still increase the risk of cancer.” Source: https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/new-study-finds-cancercausing-chemicals-in-tap-water-120057413.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
