PFAS Chemicals
By Pierre Mouchette | Bits-n-Pieces

With all the information being produced about PFAS harming people, we wanted to bring the following to your attention.  Scientific studies suggest that different systems in the human body are being affected by exposure to PFAS in water and food.  Although more research is needed, scientists indicate that high levels of PFAS may lead to the following:

• changes in liver enzymes
• decreased vaccine response in children
• increased cholesterol levels
• increased risk of high blood pressure or pre-eclampsia in pregnant women
• increased risk of kidney or testicular cancer

At this time, scientists are still learning about the health effects of exposure to mixtures of PFAS.
