Answer:
If you pay any attention to the news these days, you've undoubtedly heard the term "chemicals of concern" thrown around. Chemicals of concern are chemicals that are causing health issues in humans and animals because they persist in the body, or cause cancer when exposed. These chemicals are known as endocrine disruptors.
At this point it is widely accepted that exposure to many chemicals causes negative health effects in people long-term, but there has been little study into how exposure can help our bodies function normally and live healthy lives.
Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that can fool the body into thinking they are hormones. They mimic and interfere with the natural hormones produced in the body that regulate everything from bone health to metabolism to reproductive health and more. Examples of these chemicals include BPA, phthalates, xenoestrogens and antibiotics. These chemicals are found in many everyday items from plastic food storage containers to cosmetics to pesticides.
