Is it possible that your drinking water is making you - or your child - sick? In this week’s episode of the Soaring Child podcast, find out why it’s so important to have your home’s drinking water tested.

Memorable Moments:

"Copper is necessary in small amounts, but when you have excessive levels, they can cause so many symptoms that closely mimic ADHD."

"The transformation was remarkable. Those intense symptoms actually began to subside, and their child started to thrive."

"Water is essential for every function in our body; it's clear that the quality of water we consume is of utmost importance."

"We learned firsthand that the way the water tastes tells you nothing about the health effects."

"There are endless chemicals in our environment, and when looking at the ones that impact us through tap water, it's important to know if they are harmful."

"Most people don’t realize that contaminants like lead, arsenic, and PFAs can be present in drinking water without any taste or smell."

"If you do find contaminants in your water, it doesn't need to be like ‘Oh my gosh, the world's going to end,' but it’s very controllable."

"Run your tap water in the morning for a couple of minutes, and you'll get fresher water that has spent less time in contact with your home's plumbing."

"About 30 to 35% of our water tests come back with a result indicating something you might want to address."

"You cannot make decisions about your water quality unless you first test it."
