EPA allows Arsenic in Water

When ingested over a number of years, arsenic can cause lung, bladder and skin cancers. It has also been linked to heart disease, diabetes and neurological damage

So why is the EPA allowing unsafe levels of arsenic in your water?

In many locations, all over the country, the groundwater has arsenic concentrations that are dangerous to your health. The EPA is allowing unsafe levels of arsenic in your water supply. Research has shown that the levels of arsenic in the water supply could be causing people to have high blood pressure and artery-clogging atherosclerosis.
