It is established that our environment is contaminated with PFAS, which is commonly used as coating/protection in everything from food paper, textiles, frying pans, paint, waterproofing agents, ski wax and much more.
What is PFAS and why is it dangerous to my health?
Perfluorinated and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) containing more than 4,700 chemicals is a group of commonly used man-made chemicals that accumulate over time in the environment and in the human body. These substances are also known as “endless chemicals” as they are extremely persistent. They can cause health problems such as liver damage, thyroid disease, obesity, fertility problems and cancer. PFAS contaminates groundwater, surface water and soil. It is also technically difficult and expensive to clean up contaminated areas. If emissions continue, PFAS will continue to accumulate in the environment, drinking water and food.
