Know Your EDCs - Chemicals of Concern, Routes of Exposure, and Why It Matters

Building on our introductory EDC webinar, this session goes deeper by spotlighting the specific chemicals driving the greatest concern across major classes, including bisphenols, phthalates, parabens, organophosphate flame retardants, pesticides, PFAS, and synthetic hormones. For each class, we identify the key offenders, trace the pathways through which people are exposed, and examine what the health literature tells us about acute toxicity, chronic effects, and endocrine disruption. We also explore how many of these compounds transcend a single category of harm, simultaneously affecting reproductive, developmental, neurological, and metabolic health, and why real-world co-exposure makes the full picture more complex than any single chemical can capture.
