You drink it, shower in it, and cook with it every day — but do you actually know what's in your water? At Biohackers World Conference Podcast, Lauren Leiva and Leo Szymborski, Founder of pH Prescription, expose what most people overlook about the water they drink, shower in, and rely on every day. Drawing on 40+ years in water science and water filtration expertise, Leo reveals what most people completely overlook about modern water systems and tap water quality. From PFAs and microplastics to pharmaceutical residues, heavy metals, and recycled water, this conversation exposes why "filtered" doesn't always mean safe or clean water. You'll learn: Why city water and recycled water may be stressing your skin, hormones, and immune system What contaminants and toxins standard water filters don't remove Why shower water and bathing water matter just as much as drinking water How magnesium water and molecular hydrogen can change hydration at a cellular level How to choose the right water purification solution: apartment, travel, clinic, or whole-house water filtration systems Why water quality and clean drinking water should be the first upgrade before supplements or biohacking protocols This episode is a practical wake-up call about water contamination — not fear-based, but empowering. If you care about energy, recovery, inflammation reduction, or long-term health and wellness, fixing your water may be the simplest (and most underestimated) place to start your health optimization journey.
