PFAS : "Forever Chemicals"
About
One of the first studies to test only short-chain PFASs for their effect on oxidative stress, https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36740157/, showed conclusively the connection between increased oxidative stress and these chemicals. Many others, such as this one, https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35933025/, which measured cytotoxicity, have replicated similar results. With 3,800 published articles on PubMed alone as of this writing, the adverse health effects of these chemicals are being better understood. We hope that this will shortly lead to the world health community outlawing all of these substances in short order.
In an update: An article dated March 22nd, 2024. The US Geological Survey tested municipal water supplies across the Us and found PFAS in 45% of them. Read the article here:
Chemically Speaking
The per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of chemicals used to make fluoropolymer coatings and products that resist heat, oil, stains, grease, and water. Fluoropolymer coatings can be in a variety of products.
