    wow. the fact that they’re finding these chemicals in Placental and Amniotic fluid is nuts

    And then the chemicals themselves are just… a list of some very nasty things

    I’m reminded of the Propublica article that blew the lid off the fact that 3M’s PFAS accumulates in our tissues and causes cancer.

    At the time, Johnson said, he didn’t think PFOS caused significant health problems. Still, he told me, “it was obviously bad,” because man-made compounds from household products didn’t belong in the human body. He said that he argued against using fluorochemicals in toothpaste and diapers. (…) “These idiots were already putting it in food packaging,” he said.
