Scientists discovered PFAS (perfluoroalkyl substances), chemicals that do not break down in nature, in more than 99 per cent of bottled water samples sourced from 15 countries around the globe, with 10 “target” PFAS detected in tap and bottled water in major UK and Chinese cities.

A new study has found that our drinking water is full of potentially dangerous ‘forever chemicals’ which don’t easily break down naturally. Scientifically known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS),

The purity of our drinking water is being challenged by the presence of synthetic "forever chemicals," according to a new international study. Researchers have detected per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in water samples from taps and bottles across different countries.

Toxic molecules might be extremely common in both tap and bottled water in many places around the world. Analysis of drinking water from 15 countries shows the presence of Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) in over 99 percent of sampled bottled water from Asia,
