Hormones Face Disruption explores the impact of phthalates, chemicals prevalent in detergents and consumer products, on our endocrine system and overall health.
It highlights how these endocrine disruptors can interfere with hormonal processes, potentially affecting reproductive and developmental health.
The book connects environmental science, biology, and public health to demonstrate the far-reaching implications of chemical exposure from everyday items.
For example, even low levels of phthalates can pose a threat, emphasizing the need for safer alternatives.
