BONUS: Real Water - Water gone wrong! A Public Health Scandal

In this BONUS episode, we delve into the true crime-style medical scandal of Real Water. The company’s negligence led to severe health issues, including acute liver dysfunction in consumers like Megan Fisher’s son, Tommy. Real Water’s aggressive marketing of its unproven E2 technology claimed extraordinary health benefits, but the FDA found a potentially toxic compound in the water, that caused acute hepatitis in some consumers. The ensuing lawsuits and investigations revealed a lack of quality control and corporate greed. This episode underscores the need for stringent regulatory oversight and vigilance in scrutinizing health claims to protect consumers from similar dangers.In this episode, I use some short clips from this CBS news episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJ_Dk_EPGfAw :Sign up to the newsletter here: https://globalhealthconversations.substack.com/Check out last summer's True Crime bonus episode: The Case of a Clinical Trial Catastrophe - the TGN1412 ‘Elephant Men’ Clinical trialSupport the show
