<p>Did you know that indoor air quality can be 100 times worse than outdoor air? Or that boiling water doesn't remove contaminants, but actually concentrates them? In this episode of The Well Drop podcast, we are joined by Helen Christoni, to discuss two foundational aspects of wellness: clean air and clean water.</p><p>We discuss the fact that 247 million Americans are exposed to chromium in their tap water and indoor air quality is often worse than outdoors. We also discuss the importance of taking control of your home environment, reducing plastic waste, and being aware of potential contaminants in public water sources. Lastly, we go over why we need to be proactive in ensuring the quality of these essential elements in our daily lives. </p><p><br></p><p>Helen Christoni is a passionate Health & Wellness executive with over 20 years of experience across a wide range of businesses in this category.
