A report by the CDC and NHANES found PFAS in the blood of 97% of Americans. PFAS stands for Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances. They are a growing class of over 9,000 chemicals made of carbon-fluorine bonds, making these chemicals non-biodegradable, and earning PFAS the nickname “Forever chemicals.”
PFAS are also a human health concern, as exposures have been linked to cancer, liver damage, decreased fertility, and more. That’s why we’re so glad to be joined today by Leah Segedie.
Leah is a consumer watchdog, author, activist, community organizer, & strategist. She is the founder of the award-winning consumer activist website Mamavation.com.
We are so excited to have her join us today to discuss PFAS in food and products.
