About this ebook

PFOA and PFAS Risks addresses the widespread contamination from ""forever chemicals"" and their impact on health and the environment. These chemicals, initially celebrated for their water- and stain-resistant properties, are now linked to various health problems, including certain cancers and immune system dysfunction. The book examines how PFAS, found in consumer products and water supplies, have become a significant public health crisis.

The book progresses from introducing PFAS chemistry and history to identifying contamination sources in homes and communities. It then delves into the scientific evidence linking PFAS exposure to adverse health effects and explores the environmental impacts. Readers will gain insights into current regulatory efforts and practical steps to minimize exposure.

The approach combines scientific analysis with accessible guidance, empowering readers to make informed decisions and advocate for change.
