Big deal or not?
dark_raider said:Depends on the kind of disruptor. Among the classic are bad nutrition, stress, medication that believe me can be quite harmful.
You need to post the valid peer reviewed scientific research to back up your statement.dark_raider said:The problem is that we are exposed to many different disruptors. For example, water bottles are not a big problem, however these+plastic plates+detergent+...+...+... +long term exposure is harmful. Also, this is one main reason for carcinogenesis.
I don't get the connection.dark_raider said:http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20509646

These two are a sample of tons of papers published at ncbi.

Studies on the influence of pesticides, vegetarian diets, diethylstilbestrol, oral contraceptives and corticosteroids on hypospadias have yielded varied conclusions

Your first link is to flame retardents. Your second link is to
Please post the studies pertinent to your claim that "plastic plates+detergent" is harmful.

Galteeth said:Hmm. These seem so ubiquitous. How does one try to limit one's exposure?
SW VandeCarr said:Drink distilled water from clear glass containers, grow all your own food hydroponically (no meat, eggs or dairy), make all your own clothes from natural fibers with no synthetic dyes, filter the air you breath and don't go near anyone else.
EDIT: Your question is a serious one and I don't mean to minimize it. There is no practical way to completely avoid potentially hazardous chemicals, even if you moved to what you think is a pristine environment Getting your food, water and clothing from natural sources helps; particularly organic food you grow yourself. I would eliminate all animal products. Your home and its contents should be made of natural materials (stone and wood with no paint, plaster, or wall paper or wallboard). If you are prepared to go this route, research the best kinds of wood to use. The more you can avoid synthetic/processed products and materials, the better off you are regarding potential exposure to hazardous chemicals.
Galteeth said:It's funny you mention avoiding animal products. Isn't soy with it's phyto-estrogen a big ED? I guess you would have to get protein from combining amino acids from different foods.
Environmental endocrine disruptors are synthetic or natural substances that can interfere with the normal functioning of the endocrine system in humans and animals. They can mimic, block, or alter the body's natural hormones, which can lead to a wide range of health effects.
Endocrine disruptors can be found in various everyday products such as plastics, pesticides, cosmetics, and food containers. They can also be present in water sources, air pollution, and even in some medicines.
Exposure to endocrine disruptors has been linked to a range of health issues, including reproductive and developmental disorders, hormonal imbalances, immune system dysfunction, and certain types of cancer. They can also affect the growth and development of fetuses and children.
There are a few ways to reduce exposure to endocrine disruptors. Choosing organic, hormone-free, and BPA-free products can help, as well as avoiding plastic containers and heating food in plastic containers. It's also important to properly dispose of household chemicals and to be aware of potential sources of endocrine disruptors in the home.
The use of endocrine disruptors is regulated by various government agencies, including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). These agencies conduct research, set standards and guidelines, and regulate the use of endocrine disruptors in products. However, more research and regulation is needed to fully understand and control the impact of these substances on human and environmental health.
