Here is the info you need about what they are, where they come from (you won't believe this part), and what you can do to minimize your exposure to these worrisome forever chemicals. Dupont & 3M (both owned by Vanguard Group) have known the dangers of these chemicals for decades (see article below). You CANNOT avoid these chemicals, but you can minimize your exposure..

Protect this guy and help him get the word out. Information like this usually comes at a price.

Been filtering water for decades. My kids thought I was crazy for only wanting natural fiber clothing, sewing my own, storing food in glass jars, making from scratch.

I worked at a military base for 25 years...in 2015 we were found to have the highest amount of PFAS/PFOS that had been found. And every. single. week....we have more people both military and civilian coming out with rare cancers and diseases. Ours came from the AFFF that our firefighters used. And then when I did some research, I found that there were wells that we drank from that were ruptured. All that AFFF that went into the ground, went into our drinking wells. And they knew. So many good people have died now and many more suffering. thank you for bringing this to the forefront Dr. Berry.

For those that can't afford an expensive water filtration system, ZeroWater filters also remove PFAs.

I work in water treatment. The state of Louisiana recently passed legislation regulating the monitoring of "forever chemicals." We will have to start checking for them sometime next year.

When I was in college, my summer job was working for a well-known cosmetic company. After working summers, I realized what kind of stuff went into makeup. I've never worn very much makeup and people routinely think I'm 10 to 15 years younger than I actually am. I chalk it up to not putting chemicals on my face for 50 years. I've tried to tell people over the years chemicals that are put into makeup. My brother was a groundskeeper for golf courses for many years. He he was exposed to Roundup and other toxic chemicals during those multiple years. As a result, my brother developed bladder cancer from the time he was diagnosed to his death was 7 months. Keep preaching about these chemicals.

I'm a retired water filter installer. It's ironic that DOW Chemicals are a major manufacturer of Reverse Osmosis membranes, I've applied and services RO water purification systems for 20 years, they're not perfect in the standard configuration so I upgrade them to improve performance and longevity, that's a story for another time.

It always involves money. The greed is destroying our people! Thanks for sharing your insights. God bless all

[deannagalvan]

Corporations and Pharma view humans as expendable consumers that make them rich. Do what you can to change your exposures and trust God with the rest. ✨Thanks You Dr Ken Berry for the information.

Get a water distiller. Remineralize it yourself. Use either redmonds, celtic, or pink Himalayan salt. Buy glass water bottles.

[karlya]

Uh, huh...Vanguard. Ubiquitous, for sure. Thanks for being "mouthy" about the toxic garbage we've been and are being inundated with. I didn't realize even our filtered well water was ☠️. God bless you, sir for your continued boldness. 💪🙏 🇺🇲💗

[micheleharris]

Absolutely disgusting and pathetic! As a hospice worker, I see so much suffering from cancers. Our air and water should be pure and healthy! Our lives and our children's lives depend on us.

[Mr-mopar]

Life long paper maker here and spent a few years also in waste water treatment. The amount of chemicals used in making paper would blow your mind same with waste water treatment. Another issue people don’t talk about is the waste water, when it’s treated they only test for certain items but we know that all the birth control pills women urinate out do not come out during the water treatment..it’s scary

[tiacoubrough]

I’m going to share this with everyone! I’ve already started a low toxic lifestyle, a couple of years ago (got rid of makeup, perfume, candles, toxic cleaning products, toxic personal products, etc). Now trying to get my extended family on board

[paddy]

such an important conversation. this should be headlining every newscast.

[CarnivoreQuest-Cassie]

Those chemicals! Just terrible! Use glass, steel, and cast iron whenever possible. Thanks so much Doc❤

[conniedowner]

Yes, very disturbing. Watching the movie, Dark Waters, was eye opening. It gives the account of just what DuPont did and how damaging it was and is. Absolutely revolting.

[nahidhkurdi]

This is indeed a nightmare. The stress of taking this seriously is probably sufficient alone to cause sickness.

[ralphcantrell]

I worked around PFOS and PFOA for 30 years, and practically swam in them. I live just down wind of a very hot spot on that map too. I'm pretty sure my ailing body is a solid chunk of forever chemicals. And, knowing what we know now, I could tell you some stories that should probably cause everyone some sleepless nights. Suffice it to say that, in earlier years before any type of regulation, the fine folks who brought us this mess had no regard at all for the danger they posed.

It would be interesting if they found that the cancers people get aren't linked at all to food, but instead linked to water. That would explain why people seem to get cancer no matter what their diet is.
