Good reason to stick with scotch.

The people who pee in the beer vats must have a lot of PFOS and PFOA in them from drinking the local water.

The researchers found a strong correlation between PFAS concentrations in municipal drinking water and levels in locally brewed beer

But no research that PFAs are linked to any health issues?

Did the ACS or whatever the f they call themselves, have anything to say about the Covid jab? I’ll bet “safe and effective”.

“Forever chemicals” are the newest scare phrase to get people to click on health articles. I read one where it said most people have enough plastic particles in their heads (due to drinking from plastic bottles) to create a plastic spoon.

--- "...gaining notoriety..." because media is busy messaging 24/7.

But think of the "tell" in this prose.

---- "The authors acknowledge funding from an internal research grant from RTI International."

Research Triangle Institute, operating as RTI International, is a nonprofit organization headquartered in the Research Triangle Park in North Carolina, USA.
It is "a global publisher of peer-reviewed, open-access books, reports, and briefs." And it seems quite the "globalist," in orientation.

It's a billion-dollar "charitable" organization --

President Tim J. Gabel -- $ 1,238,271 plus $168,915 "additional"
Read through the officers' salaries and perks in Part VII
$14+ million for "current officers, directors, trustees, and key employees " and $420,112,914 for "other salaries and wages."

Source: Research Triangle Institute Form 990 from a couple of years ago In Durham, North Carolina

Peeling away layers about this entity, one finds from an older source, circa 2013:
"RTI International is a large, North Carolina-based, non-profit research corporation. According to its 2004 annual report, RTI's largest source of income is U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) contracts. More than one-third of its $509.5 million in 2004 income came from USAID."

Source: RTI International

Messaging. "Study finds...." "Mulitple studies find...."

What does one find about RTI today?

"RTI International is a large, North Carolina-based, non-profit research corporation. According to its 2004 annual report, RTI's largest source of income is U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) contracts. More than one-third of its $509.5 million in 2004 income came from USAID."

"USAID’s website is completely blank and the agency’s funding frozen despite a court order. Last week, RTI International announced 'temporary layoffs' due to an absence of U.S. foreign assistance. A nonprofit research organization, RTI stands to lose millions more if a significant cut to National Institutes of Health grants withstands court challenges.

"The federal government is RTI’s main client overall, accounting for 84% of its total revenue in 2022 and 2023."

Source: Open Source: RTI International CEO makes seven figures. Does that justify USAID cuts? News & Observer, 21 February 2025.

Yes, it does.

And as to this thread and the SciTechDaily -- "The authors acknowledge funding from an internal research grant from RTI International."

A wee bit more poking around re SciTechDaily.

Its mail address is:

SciTechDaily.com
1042 N. El Camino Real Ste B-395
Encinitas, CA 92024
It is the identical address to their "owner" -- Daily E-Deals, or dailyedeals.com. "Hot Online Coupons & Promo Codes"

Messaging from RTI and biz op's from ScTechDaily's other half. Probably not the best source, after all?

Glad I hate the stuff. I don’t like drinking what tastes like bitter yeast.

Husband, however, loved it - we were forever visiting local craft breweries when we traveled - he got to drink my tasting samples as well

Thank God for iced tea.

With all the contamination in water beer not that bad of a option.

In LA they filter sewer water for drinking water.

Honey the soup has a tang to it you change brands?.

Those chemicals were, more than likely, there all along. Only now is it sensational to test for them.

The dose makes the poison.

We can detect minute levels of substances far far below the dose which would be toxic.

So there are toxins in beer which might affect you of you drank a hundred gallons of beer a week for fifty years.

So what?
