Endocrin Disrupting Compounds - What's the Problem?
There are about 14 hundred compounds that humans are exposed to routiney that have the potential for endocren disruption. Endocrin disrupting chemicals follow what's called a non monotonic dose response. They can have one effect at a high dose, but they can have a completely different effect at a very low dose. Many of these products i cosmetics um which we don't ingest them, so they're not tested for that. But they still are able to enter circulation, whether it's through hand to mouth behavior. Even certain types of dental floss, like dental tape. These are powerful endo endogrin disruptors.
