Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals: Threats to Human Health

This comprehensive report from the Endocrine Society, co-produced with the International Pollutants Elimination Network (IPEN), is an excellent resource for familiarising yourself with endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs). It provides a comprehensive introduction to EDCs; explains the impacts of EDCs and the link to endocrine disease; explains the science of EDCs, as well as detailed update on the state of the science; and explains real world exposures to EDCs and key sources of exposure for humans, with emphasis on exposure to EDCs from four sources: plastics, pesticides, consumer products (including children’s products), and per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
