Toxins in drinking water: How dangerous poisons threaten your health

Toxine im Trinkwasser: Wie gefährliche Gifte Ihre Gesundheit bedrohen

Water - the source of life. But did you know that it can also make you sick? Pathogenic toxins such as cyanobacterial toxins , endotoxins and viral toxins are increasingly finding their way into our drinking water. These invisible killers come from algal blooms, bacterial degradation processes and pathogens that enter our water sources through wastewater.

A glass of water from contaminated regions can already contain traces of cyanobacterial toxins - toxic substances produced by blue-green algae. While a single sip often seems harmless, consumption over weeks and months can cause serious damage. Studies show that a person absorbs up to 20 micrograms of these toxins annually through drinking water alone.

The effects are alarming: Cyanobacterial toxins attack the liver and are suspected of being carcinogenic. Endotoxins released by bacteria can cause allergic reactions, fever and, in the worst case, septic shock. Viral toxins that enter the groundwater through contaminated sewage increase the risk of gastrointestinal infections and other serious illnesses.
