Endocrine disruptors and their impact on hormones

Endocrine disruptors, such as phthalates and pesticides, can have a profound effect on hormones in the body. They can mimic or block hormones, leading to hormone imbalances and various symptoms. These disruptors are found in everyday products like toothpaste, skincare products, plastic cookware, and food containers. They can negatively impact reproductive hormones, thyroid function, and overall hormone balance. It is important to be aware of these disruptors and make conscious choices to minimize exposure, such as opting for natural products and avoiding plastic containers and nonstick cookware.
