“Forever chemicals” (PFAS) are everywhere, but how concerned should you really be?
Michelle and Kevin are joined by toxicologist Dr Deborah Keil to break down the science behind PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), a group of persistent chemicals found in water, food packaging, cookware and more.
You’ll learn:
- What PFAS are and why they’re called “forever chemicals”
- How these substances enter your body (hint: it’s not just water)
- The real health risks, including immune system effects and impacts on vulnerable populations
- Why almost everyone has PFAS in their blood, and what that actually means
- Practical ways to reduce your exposure without panic
- The role of nutrition and antioxidants in protecting your body
This episode cuts through the fear and gives you clear, science-backed guidance on what matters most (and what doesn’t) when it comes to everyday chemical exposure.
