YOUTUBE (NewsNation) - Journalist gets forever chemicals blood test on camera
In the Emmy-nominated and Murrow-winning documentary “Growing Broke,” investigative journalist Natasha Zouves gets her blood tested for forever chemicals on camera. Forever chemicals are so omnipresent — in our nonstick pans, couches, pizza boxes, and now in rainwater everywhere on earth — and they are linked with serious health issues and cancer. PFAS are now in the blood of 97% of Americans. In this new “Truth of the Matter” podcast episode, Diane Cotter explains how her firefighter husband’s cancer diagnosis was the beginning of the biggest mystery of her life: discovering the very gear meant to protect him was shot through with dangerous levels of toxic “forever chemicals.”
