Xeno-estrogens
(Endocrine disrupting chemicals)
Quick summary of the science :
Xenoestrogens are man made chemicals, that exert estrogen-like actions on the body, contributing to endocrine disruption. Xenoestrogens are everywhere in our environment, so avoiding them altogether is nearly impossible. However, by knowing what they are and where to find them, we can greatly decrease our exposure and hopefully preserve our health.
They include PCBs, BPA, parabens, pthalates and triclosan.
