Skepticality #073 - Your Water on Drugs - Interview: Dr. Shane Snyder, PhD
Last week, a widely circulated Associated Press story reported thatÂ"a vast array of pharmaceuticals â including antibiotics, anti-convulsants,Âmood stabilizers and sex hormones â have been found in he drinking waterÂsupplies of at least 41 million Americans." Derek and Swoopy look beyond the headline hype in their interviewÂwith Dr. Shane Snyder, who published his first study on "Screening ofÂDrinking Water for Possible Endocrine Disrupting Compounds" over ten yearsÂago. As a doctor of Environmental Toxicology and Zoology, Dr. Snyder hasÂdevoted most of his career to studying the evidence of chemical,Âenvironmental and pharmaceutical compounds in the water supplyâand whatÂharm, if any, it poses to the organisms that utilize it.
